My son Josh called last night saying he was having issues with his 2016 Dodge Ram.. The truck barely starts and when it does, bucks like a rodeo bull and smokes so much that it set off the smoke alarms at the dealerships work bay. The dealership says he had too much oil in the truck.. What? First, he did have the oil changed about 1000 miles previous to that, so why didn't it have issues right after that. The dealer fixed it, he picked it up the next day and as it came around the service bay corner, it was doing the exact same thing... WTH !!!!???? They charged him $1200 because they said it was his fault... If the oil change place did indeed fill it up too much, it should have given him problems right off the bat.. The vehicle is still under warranty.. Told him to contact a regional Dodge rep., get the truck fixed and get his money back.. It is in Franklin, Tn..

Frankly, I don't think there was ever 3 quarts of extra oil in the crankcase.. But, IF there was, what would be the negative impact?

Cheers and thanks.
