the most common problem since it should have a 3.6 1st gen engine is the front cylinder head causing mis-fires that should still be under warranty since fca extended it to 10 years or 150k miles the second known problem is the roller rocker arms come apart and cause loud tapping noise and usually will take out a cam shaft those are the only major problems we see with them at the dealer I work at
