2013 Ram 1500 Check Engine Light Codes

When the check engine light comes on in a 2013 Ram 1500, it can store codes such as P0300 (random/multiple misfires), P0420 (catalyst system efficiency below threshold), P0440/P0455 (EVAP system leak), and P0135/P0136 (oxygen sensor issues). In Boise, Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Boise provides a fast, professional diagnostic process that identifies the root cause and quantifies the cost of delaying repair. For example, a persistent misfire left unaddressed may damage pistons or rings and escalate into a major engine repair; an untreated P0420 commonly leads to catalytic converter replacement that can exceed $1,000–$2,000; unresolved EVAP leaks lead to failed emissions testing and reduced fuel economy. Our certified technicians use OEM-grade diagnostic tools to deliver a clear plan with itemized estimates, prioritizing repairs that protect your truck’s longevity and resale value. Choosing our Boise service center often delivers lower total cost of ownership compared with piecemeal fixes because we pair factory-trained expertise, genuine parts, and warranty-backed work for dependable results.
