Three months ago I purchased a used 2000 R/T, 36K miles. I noticed a coolant leak and took it back to the dealer. It was a bad freeze plug, corroded from the inside- which is not covered by the 3rd party warranty bought with the truck. Fine, I paid them $275, because it was behind the engine mount. The next morning, there were more puddles. I took it back and now 4 others (one or two at the back side of block)are showing leaks. I understand that the when the first leaking plug was replaced, it could increase the coolant pressure inside the block, and cause other leaks. (but to cause 4 to leak?)
Has anyone else had similar problems w/ the 5.9?
