2014 Ram C/V Tradesman Check Engine Light Codes

At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Boise we frequently see codes on the 2014 Ram C/V Tradesman such as P0420 (catalyst system efficiency), P0300 (random/multiple misfire), P0171 (system too lean), P0135 (O2 sensor heater), and EVAP codes like P0455. Ignoring these codes can escalate repair costs quickly: a failing O2 sensor left unchecked can reduce fuel economy and lead to premature catalytic converter failure, which can cost $1,000–$2,500 to replace. Misfires that continue without repair risk damage to pistons and the catalytic converter, multiplying expense and downtime. Our Boise service center provides accurate code interpretation, OEM parts, and factory-trained technicians who explain immediate repairs and long-term benefits. Fixing issues early at our dealership often costs less overall than deferred repairs at independent shops because we prevent secondary damage and provide warranty protection.
