last year my 2018 Dodge hellcat charger through a P050B code they had fixed something with it and again this year it through the same code they change the PCM and told me if it happened again that it was fuel-related as anybody else had this issue with their hellcats?

It is the heater wire inside O2 sensor on bank 2...I have had it pop on really cold days twice in 2 years...unless it comes up frequently, I personally would clear it and go.

And no it happened last year around the exact same time so it makes sense I appreciate the info I just don't understand why the dealership guys can't get it right I live on a smaller area and I'm about 99% sure this is the only hellcat they've ever worked on lol

I don't let the dealer touch mine if at all possible...I personally have been turning wrenches since I was 7, and have pretty extensive electronics background as well. I don't know as much as some, but I am an extremely gifted troubleshooter..my .02

It's not a big thing...doesn't really affect performance at all, more of nanny reminder that it is not heating fast enough for computer parameters in calibration...

This code has came up for me twice (2nd time being last week and the first time was last winter) and only when its really cold out (low 30s). Mine is a 18 as well.

I have noticed this issue seems to be with the 18 calibration...I'll have to cross against 19 and see what is different.
