Default EGR Valve ?

I have a 04 qaud cab hemi with 44,800 miles and the EGR valve is bad. Is this covered under the 100,000 mile emissions warrenty?
I am just asking before I go to the dealer.
Thanks

NOT covered, I tried & tried to get them to cover it, but no dice!!

Seems a shame with a "04" truck that only has 44,803 miles on it.

They wanted something written, that said it was covered. I am still searching but so far no luck.

it really depends on the dealer. we have covered some and not covered some.
give your local dealer a call with your vin number and ask.

I'm surprised ANY dealer would replace an EGR under warranty. It's considered a routine maintenance part and the average life in a Hemi is about at 40,000 miles.

Advance has them for $39.99 and if you are totally inept it would take you 20 minutes to swap out...
