had a bad ticking noise coming from the driver side of the engine so I checked the exhaust manifold bolts and studs and found one stud that fell out into my hand. I took it to the dealer and they diagnosed it and found 3 more broken studs, yes all 4 studs were broke off in the head and I also had a blown gasket. Had that all fixed it has ran great now I just blew the head gasket very disapointed that a truck with 76,000 miles has already had this many engine problems.

RookieI have the same problem on my truck. I currently have 67,000 miles on it. Of course, this is one of the many problems that I have had with my truck. I'm very disappointed in my dodge truck. I wish I had a more solid truck than what I currently have.
