2019 Ram ProMaster Extended Warranty: What 2019 Owners Need to Know

The 2019 Ram ProMaster was the last U.S. model year offering the 3.0L EcoDiesel alongside the 3.6L Pentastar V6 on the Fiat Ducato platform. At 100,000–130,000 typical miles, turbo and Pentastar valvetrain risks deserve attention.
Quick Answer
The chief concerns are EcoDiesel turbo failure ($1,800–$3,000) and Pentastar rocker arm/lifter repair ($1,500–$3,000). The diesel was dropped after 2019, and coverage can reduce a covered event to Athena's $100 deductible.
