Dodge Ram Reviews

This is my third Ram. My first was 96 1500 v6 magnum. My second was 04 Ram 1500 2wd5.7 hemi. Never had any major problems. Now I own a 2014 Ram 2500 4x4 and love it. Great tough trucks. Like any vehicle always keep up with the maintenance.

Bad service until I reported them to BBB and Chrysler Service - they finally asked me to drop my truck for an inspection on my driveshaft. I bought a pick up truck on Nov 1st, 2014 and two weeks later I found out that I have engine light on, extremely Rusty powertrain driveshaft and front bumper came off by itself. Regarding my front bumper, one of the service guy who always sitting on the front to greet customers and taking their information, attempted to claim that I ran into something. I asked him to take a look himself. Obviously he couldn't find anything such as dent or scratches because like I told him, the bumper just came off by itself. One of the bumper, whatever you called that, the thing that hold the nuts ripped off and I don't even know how it happened. Bad manufacturing process I believe. He called the service manager who take a look himself for 10 secs and asked somebody to drive to the back to get it fix, no question being asked at all. That was alright with me including the engine light which was updated. The driveshaft is the whole new level.

I am very meticulous with cleaning my truck (2009 Dodge Ram Diesel) because I like it, spent a lot of money on it, and want it to last. Every time I wash it, which is usually once a week, I thoroughly sponge wash the interior of all wheel wells. Now I started noticing bubbles in the paint over the rear wheel wells. While at the dealership for a tie rod recall I had the service manager at Hoffman Chrysler/Dodge, Hagerstown, MD looked at the rust development. He agreed that as clean as the truck is kept that it should not be rusting. He gave me an (800) number for Chrysler and said I could even offer his name for verification.

This is my second Ram and it will be the last. I needed a good reliable truck since I travel for a living in it. So I purchased a brand 2014 Ram 1500 crew cab in June 2014. I have put 15k mile on it and love the room and performance of my truck. However, the 8 speed transmission has issues and was in shop for a day. Note: It took 3 weeks for the dealer to get the parts. I'm not sure if it’s been fixed since I only got to drive it for about 3 weeks and then it had a major oil leak. I took it to my dealer on Dec. 19th and today is Jan. 3rd and I still do not have my truck. The dealership told me it would be 3 weeks, which is stupid! So, I contacted Dodge and they cannot give me a reason other than they are trying to locate a part.

New 2014 Ram 3500 gas engine. Owned it 1 week and this problem started. Engine will turn but won't start. Looked it up on Google and seen many of these problems. Get this, the dealership salesman and service department said they never heard of this problem and sent them one of the youtube videos with the same problem. It happened 7 times now and am very pissed about spending $35k and getting shoved to the side. The dealership is Waxahachie Dodge in Waxahachie, Texas.

I purchased a brand new 1500 quad cab with 3 miles on it. Now the truck has 329 miles and the radio has stopped working. I either get a blue screen, black screen, no backup camera, etc. I take it to the dealer and am immediately told they can't have anyone look at it because they are too busy. I refuse to accept that answer and seek out a manager. The manager, not happy I have disturbed his coffee break, comes out and confirms my problem. Then says "come back and we will take care of it on your next oil change." What? You want me to wait several thousand miles, I don't think so. I have now escalated this to the owner and am awaiting a response. I will follow up.

2011 Dodge Ram 1500 - Gas pedal stuck while driving! Almost hit 3 cars and before it stopped!!! We are on vacation in Myrtle Beach SC. 7 hrs from home! Just read where other people had same problem. We need someone to pay attention!! There is a problem w/ these vehicles, which are high performance w a he I and can easily kill someone!!

Took my 2013 Ram 2500 Cummins to the shop with an EGR system leaking carbon monoxide into the cab giving me a headache plus it was making a knocking noise in the engine compartment and the A/C making a knocking noise. Anyways took it to the dealership to fix the issues and only one thing gets fixed out of 3 times. I've taken it to the shop. They fixed the EGR and said they didn't know what the knocking in the engine was... But it was noted in the system well about a week later the batteries won't hold a charge and I have to jump it off if I want to drive it. All in all I'm pissed the ** in Tyler hasn't helped me with anything. I'm angry and want a lawyer who can get my hard earned money back!!

Took my 2012 ram 3500 Dually in for service.. Repair front hubs, bearings, front steering stabilizer, and 4-wheel drive transfer case, alignment... Also to fix the warning lights that keep coming on (Service 4-wheel drive, ABS light and brake light).. Ok so got all this done at Arrigo Dodge in West Palm Beach.. They had the truck for 12 days... Got it back and transfer case making a binding noise, lights are still on, and front end now pulls to the right... Take it back to them and they have it another week.. Pick it up and the lights come on again.. Ok so now I tell the service guy "I need to drive to Colorado 1800 miles. Is the truck safe?" He said "Yes don't worry about the warning lights. Just have it looked at when you get there. If they stay on..."

2012 dodge Ram 3500 - I had problems with the rear end at 66,000 miles. Took to my dealer. They refused warranty due to water damage in the rear end. The truck was only about 9 months old (yes, I drive a lot). They wanted $5,500. I did it for $2,800. One month later, I checked the fluid. It had water in it again. I added 1 foot of hose to the axle vent and ran it over the frame and pointed it at the ground. No more problems the way Dodge had it, any water ran into the axle. BAD DESIGN.

We bought this truck with 4000 miles on it. A demo wrecker. Big, strong, able to handle what we could throw at it. Unfortunately, have had nothing but an issue out of the def system. Hard to keep a wrecker on the road when it keeps flashing the shut down and will not restart in 200 miles message. Finally my husband found the problem. Def fluid crystallizes when air hits it, and each time you add def fluid a small amt of air hits the fluid, so guess what happens. Right. Some of those crystals get in the system, stop up the injector. If you don't believe, check the funnel you use to add def fluid. Crystals you will find. Still has SES light for the system, but at least it's not shutting down now. Just a bit disappointed in the product dodge advertised as the truck built especially for the wrecker industry. Wake up Dodge. Where's your pride in your products? The amt I gave for this truck should make it trouble free for a long, long time.

Purchased 2011 Ram truck with Uconnect. The GPS don't have any data without an update. Why would the original data be removed when the truck changes owners?

Brand new (<1,000mi) Ram 1500 4x4 w/ Hemi shudders violently side-to-side, especially when accelerating or decelerating. Towed to the dealer, still waiting on diagnosis. No loaner vehicle available because I didn't buy the extended warranty package. Disabled veteran needs truck.

I recently purchased a new 4x4 Ram pickup (2 months 11,000 miles). This is my 12th 4x4 and while a "Ford man - (8)" I have had a Toyota, Nissan, and 2 GMC. I am often off road hunting and fishing and "getting" where I am going. I am 45 and do not recreationally "hot dog" in the mud, but I typically drive them until they are DONE (this is my 4th new) the rest have been purchased with 100,000 - 150,000 miles and driven well into the 200's. Don't get me wrong, I am rough on them.

The Dodge brake controller, when not working, does not indicated that it is not working. Hence one is left without brakes when pulling a trailer. This is a serious failure. When the Dodge dealer is asked to remove the integrated brake controller from the vehicle computer system all you get is can't. This of course is BS and is clearly stated on all the Dodge forums as being possible. So why should it be impossible to get a dealer to fix your truck?? Lack of caring is how I put it and hence why Dodge gets the lowest ratings.

2013 ram 1500 - I got the truck new in august of 13 and it has 10006 miles. Now took it in today for an oil change and there is moisture in the left headlight. Asked about it and I was told normal wear. I don't understand how this is normal and it should be replaced through warranty, hope they all aren't holding moisture. I was thinking of trading next year for another new ram but with the concern of the service I received no way will I ever buy another one. Just wondering if this is a problem with all the rams.

In May my engine light came on. Now in November after 12k miles and 25 actual documented trips to service we still have same issue with Def system problems. Dealership, dodge and Cummings are all involved. It's going in again next week to install a device to monitor the truck from another location as well as a new pump and another sensor that has been replace multiple time. This is my everyday driver and being without a truck like this is not useful. In the 25 times I have been given a car once (had to be jumped 1/2 mile away to get back home) and a 1/2 ton old Chevy truck 3 times. Chrysler has given me a case manager and somehow my case was closed last week, I call inquiring why and they couldn't tell me but started a new one. Anyone else suspicious? 5 times so far the computer has threatened to shut down in 200 miles and instructs getting to dealership. So next week is 26 times in the shop since May with my everyday 5500 work truck with a dump landscape box, tool boxes, snow plow and computer stand installed in truck. I wish I could take away everyone else's computer until this truck is fixed.

So I buy my truck in April 2013, Dodge Hemi 5.7L Bighorn. Before I bought this truck I was told it was an amazing truck and the best riding truck out of all the Hemi class trucks. So the day comes to pick it up. I take my truck home and while driving it around no longer than 30 mins the engine light comes on. So my first time experience was destroyed. I took it to the dealership in Strathroy Ontario where I purchased it. They told me it was the gas cap fault. I said “How can it be that? I didn't fill it up, you guys did.” So they cleared the fault and on I went. This fault went on for 2 months before finally they figured it out and replaced the duel cats that were faulty.

My brother and I purchased a brand new 2014 Ram 3500 4x4 cc with 6.4 hemi from Tri- Cities Jeep/Dodge/Ram in Kingsport, TN. The night we purchase it 12 miles from the dealership, the loose gas cap light comes on then the 'check engine' light. I continue on home because we weren't done till 10 pm dealership closed. The next morning I go back, take it to service, explain what happened and they apologize, agree to usher right in to be checked. Three hours later they come get me and tell the gas cap was loose, I didn't tighten it correctly. It and check engine code reset, all is good. BTW I did not fill it up the dealership did. Later that same day, have driven my truck 43 miles since purchase, the lights come on again. The next day I return to the dealership and explain my displeasure and disgust. They tell me they need the truck for 4-6 hours to smoke test emissions system for leak which now appeared with loose cap light but they can't provide loaner car which is part of Car-Doc warranty I got with the truck. I schedule appointment for following Wed at 8 am. I took the truck in and set for 3 hours while they test it.

My husband and I purchased our 2013 Dodge Ram 1500 on August 8th of last year. Our first issue was the a/c took it to the dealership. They did the dye test and said everything was fine that it was just over charged within 2 weeks. I was calling them again because it was not fixed. They tell me to bring it back, they did the dye test again and found a bad gasket, problem fixed!! Now our second issue is well we don't know. The dealership don't know either. The traction stability light was coming on and staying on while at the same time the tire pressure sensor is beeping and flashing in the dash. I called the dealership starting on the first of September and I called them everyday. I was told by one of the service associates that unless it doesn't start or leaves me stranded, then it should be fine just keep driving it. 4 associates, 2 managers and over a week later, they call me to bring it in that was on 9/10/14. They still have our truck and still don't know what's wrong with it. I'm so frustrated and don't know what to do!!

Just purchased my truck this month October 25, 2014. Has 670 miles on it and started making a noise as I was driving in a wind tunnel. Took my truck in today and was told the fan clutch is bad and needs to be replaced. I shouldn't be having to replace any parts on my truck being I just bought it and it's brand new. Spoke to a manager regarding this issue and was told I could not return my truck back to them. Going to speak to another manager on Tuesday and my blood is boiling. Very dissatisfied with Dodge as of now!!!

2011 dodge Ram 1500 - Seems the dealer is just into changing parts. Still have the same problem after 3 times trying to get it fixed. Maybe some of the same truck owners out there can help me. I have a howling noise from 25 to 35 mph and when I get to 40 on up I have a bearing sound that comes and goes. Let off the accelerator and the noise goes away. Anyone had this problem and what was the fix?

I am a dog trainer. I needed a good, dependable truck for my business. Lots of my friends have Dodge Rams (different versions) and one has over 400,000 miles on his Diesel. I pull horse trailers. I am on the road a lot and need good transport for dogs and me. So, after much research and recommendations of Dodge Ram, I decided to go that route. When I looked it up under consumer research articles, it was one of the highest recommended trucks on the road.

Bought my Laramie in April 2014. Always was a Ford man - decided to try the Cummins. Bought brand new and wow this is the biggest letdown of my life. Since the second week of buying both front seats came apart at the fasteners and as of 8/21/14 I am waiting for the okay to replace them from Chrysler. The fourth week came around with a check engine light on so with broken seats that ripped my wife's dress I took it to the dealer. They said they can't figure out the code it produced so they just reset it. Two weeks later it was on again along with def service at dealer also tire pressure monitor system failed and the data radio has lost all presets and cuts in and out. Took to another dealer and they said they're ordering parts and the radio had a recall.

I owned a 98 Dodge Ram right off the showroom floor and before I gave it to my son, it only had two major issues. One was a recall for towing package, they had to weld an extra piece of metal to the trailer hitch. The other issue was, I am assuming the same as most other people that owned that year with the Dashboards that fell apart.

While driving around 60+ MPH the truck will rock or sway out of control till you go down. It gets worse when I'm pulling my small (single axle) trailer. Probably won't buy another Dodge. It is embarrassing and DANGEROUS!

Our 2009 Dodge Ram truck is sitting in the driveway and it is useless. It only has 130,000 miles. We have had it in for numerous repairs and we still have a useless truck that has no power. There is also a recall on a front end part and we still have never been able to get in for the repair. There is now a recall on the recall. Please do not buy a Dodge truck of any kind. Especially, do not buy from Love Chrysler in Alice, Texas. They could never fix your truck but they could keep sure could find something wrong with it. We spent over $20,000 on repairs and finally just went and bought a new Ford Truck. We will never ever step inside a Dodge Chrysler Dealership again to buy a car or truck. Why can't all of us who have been sold lemons band together and make Dodge Chrysler stand behind their repairs.

Dodge Ram 3/4 ton diesel 2 wheel drive transmission slips in and out. No one seems to be able to help or have any knowledge of this problem.

On 07/07/14 I bought a 09 Ram truck from Island Chrysler in Pawleys Island SC. It only had 37233 miles on it. It came with a 90-day power train warranty. On the FIRST day I informed the dealership about an engine issue. I took the truck back for service the next business day. They checked it out and said it was fine. It only got worse. The engine loses power and smoke pours out the tailpipe. I took it back on 08/20/14 again no resolution. To date it has happened 15 times. I have put 3000 miles on it and it has used over 2 quarts of oil every 1000 miles. I have changed the oil twice. I called Chrysler and they have given me the runaround. I am disabled and can not afford to fix this. HELP.

Dodge RAM has had a long-term, well-known problem where sometimes when the driver hits a small bump in the road the truck starts shaking violently and won't stop until the truck slows way down. The claim is that it has been fixed in the 2013 model but it has happened to my 2013 RAM 3500 three times. The truck has 13000 miles and is in perfect condition. I took it to the dealer and at first he claimed that he'd never heard of the "death wobble." I showed him dozens of internet articles, including references to many notices to the dealers about this problem. After that he admitted that he knew about it but said there was nothing he could do. He inspected the truck and said that "it looks perfect." Only it still has the death wobble. Now what?

The truck is great but we can't seem to solve the problem of the radio. We were without the truck for three days. The radio problem was supposedly fixed by giving us a new radio. 50 miles later we are experiencing the exact same problem! HELP!

Have had an issue with the gas mileage on my 2013 Ram Longhorn since I got it. Can only get 15 to 16 MPH on the highway with ECO engaged. I have owned a 2007, 2009 (the best one with 19 to 22 MPH) and a 2011. None of the previous trucks ever had MPH that bad. Four trips to dealer and all I get is "the ECO is working fine". Have 36,000+ on it now and still no improvement. Numerous electrical problems too. Pretty sure, I will not buy another Ram.

2014 Dodge Ram 3/4 Ton Diesel Laramie - The day I brought the truck home It showed a problem with the tire sensors. I called the dealer to make appointment asap and since then it has been in 3 times for the same problem this time now they have had it for seven days and still nothing! I do believe the dealer is trying but Chrysler is not interested or really not into customer service. The only answer I get is Chrysler engineering is working on it (BS). This is the first Dodge I have ever owned and will most likely be the last. I have always bought Ford Trucks but all my friends had Dodge's and talked very highly of them so thought I would try - bad mistake. Call me if you want more details.

So I bought a 2013 Ram 1500 last Sept. It's been a year now and I have had nothing but problems. After only owning it a week, it had an air leak in the cab. Next the cruise didn't work properly. Took them 2 visits to the shop to get the leak fixed - cruise to this day still won't work properly. Then it had trouble starting - took it in. Now they tell me it needs new fuel injectors. Took them 4 months to finally get them installed. Only because I called and called! Then my sat. radio stopped working and a few days later my radio just keeps turning on and off!! Also randomly my wipers stopped working. The paint is cracked on 2 spots - what's next? I bought this because I'm just starting out a new family and thought by getting new, I could count on no problems. What do I do next... Really want to get out of this truck and into something else!

I have a big investment in this 2000 Dodge 3500 van because it is converted to a motor home by a Canadian company called RoadTrek. In the last year, my computer (ECM) has been replaced 5 times. The replacement ECM is under warranty, but the mechanics seem to be just replacing the computer until the warranty runs out, without being able to find the root of the problem. I continue to get false OBD-II reports of emission control problems and low idle controller problems, with accompanying cutting out and low idle roughness.

Purchased this 2003 Dodge Ram 2500 Quad Cab 4 x 4 new and have maintained this vehicle as if it were new the entire time. Serviced reg, kept in garage, never wrecked, NOT in a salt air environment and looks brand new on the inside. Noticed that the paint was coming off on the cab and is degenerating other places. Took it to a body shop to have a quote on painting. Come to find out, Dodge admitted that the paint on this year’s truck was defective & had no clear coat. Contacted Dodge through letters to corporate. There is nothing wrong with the truck except that Dodge's paint was defective. As was told to them - there is a very little trade in value due to the paint being defective.

I had a check engine light come on on a 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 with 17,000 actual miles. Took it to our dodge dealer (Christopher's Dodge) and upon running the computer was told that there was probable a clogged exhaust line and/or valves not working. Upon taking the truck in a week later was informed by Christopher's Dodge that we had a completely plugged EGR Cooler and it would cost around $3200.00 to fix. This has been a problematic part with Chrysler and if replaced during the 5 year 100,000 miles warranty it would be paid for. Well since our vehicle falls out of the 5 year warranty period they would only reduce the cost of the labor. Even though the vehicle only has 17,000 miles and looks like it came off the showroom. We were informed we were not loyal customers since we had not done our oil changes there. So we ended up paying 2600.00 for the repair and in my opinion will never purchase another Chrysler product since they do not back their vehicles.

On my 5th dodge vehicle. Never had any problems with any of them. I have a 2014 dodge ram crew 4 by 4 big horn hemi now just hit 10k miles. Good mpg for a big motor. Can even feel the 4000 pound being pulled by it. Great in the snow. Great truck and I still can do the regular maintenance myself.

On December 31, 2012, I purchased a 2013 Dodge Dart at the Dodge Dealership in Marlow Heights, MD. Two months after having the vehicle, I began to have electrical problems where the left turn signal would not work. I took it to the dealership three times and they could not get it to work so I was offered to purchase a new Dodge Dart in May of 2013, and the Dodge dealership paid off the first vehicle. Well, it has been a little over a year and I have begun to have problems and I am afraid to even drive the vehicle now for safety reasons.

Purchased the car last week and after 125 mile transmission is out, I was going up the mild hill and car start going backward. Lucky me nobody was behind me in this narrow hilly one-way road. I caused a major traffic. Lucky me it didn't happen the night before that I took my family for a ride. The dealer is ignorant of the major defect. First they said it is a computer problem and then they said it is transmission. They don’t have a 8' truck to loan me and I had to stay out of job. And seems like this won’t be the end of this problem.

I have a 2014 Dodge Lone Star I bought in March. I was trying Dodge for the first time in my life and I will never do that again. I have about 9000 miles on my truck all highway miles but it all started at like mile 5000 something. I have been to dealership three times, left it there twice and it still isn't fixed. They explain that it can't be fixed because where the dealership is located at the speed limit is lower and by policy they can't exceed it. But to really feel the fault you need to go by the speed limit up the highway and they tell me to go to a dealership closer to that speed limit.

My husband and I co-signed a new vehicle loan for our son, Shawn **. He purchased a 2014 Dodge Dart from Towbin Dodge in Henderson, Nevada. He 2/15/2014, the car has been pretty good, however the air conditioner went out on it in May 2014. He had purchased every optional package of protection for this car that was available taking it from $24,855.00 to final cost of $30,424.38 not including the interest that will be paid by the time the loan is final and paid off. However after the kids fought with Dodge here in Kingman, AZ and got nowhere, I called Towbin Dodge and explained what was going with the car and that our local dealer doesn't want to mess with it, would rather just shovel crap at the kids. So they took the car and dropped it off at Towbin Dodge... Today Towbin called Shawn and advised that his car was going to cost $700.00 to fix the air conditioner.

I first had a 2011 Dodge Ram 1500 Outdoorsman. It ran fine until 2013 when it would suddenly stop while driving and start up again on its own. Not being able to accelerate from an intersection because it decided to stop and restart with a semi-truck coming is a bit scary. After several trips to the dealership where it was bought and no solution, I traded the vehicle in on a 2014 Dodge Ram 1500 Big Horn Diesel. Guess what? This truck does the same thing only more often. Of course, the dealership has no answer to the problem except that I must be driving with my foot on the brake, WRONG.

2003 Ram truck 1500 Crew PU 4x4 Quad - I purchased my Ram new in 2003 and absolutely love this truck. I take very good care of my truck and in return it takes very good care of me. Last week I had a roll over - sideways luckily and walked away without a scratch. This truck is built like a tank. Though the insurance company totaled it, I was offered a fair amount of settlement and intend to fix my baby up. Now, I did hear from several sources in multiple states that Dodge's newer trucks are way below the quality level of their older models such as mine. What I can't determine is exactly when (what year) Dodge started messing with a very, very strong, dependable vehicle. So, for you folks that purchased a newer Dodge truck, I regret that you will not be experiencing the wonderful, dependable, strong truck of years ago. Dodge, you messed up and are losing and will continue to lose the large number of faithful Ram customers because you decided to ruin a wonderful product... So, so sad.

The track bar broke on my truck and I had lost steering. I managed to cross over two lanes of traffic to the emergency lane and crawl home at 25 miles per hour. When I called Dodge, the woman at the recall center said that they went by VIN numbers only and that my VIN number was not on the recall list. Therefore it could not have been the track bar that failed. As she continued, she said that they knew only 1500 trucks had the wrong smaller truck part and because my VIN was not on the list. It could not have been the track bar. I asked where do I go to get it fixed and submit proof of the track bar being the wrong size and she said it's up to me to get it fixed and it's not Dodge's fault if the wrong size was installed. But they would appreciate me being a Dodge customer. I HATE DODGE! Every Dodge we ever had, the driver's door come off the hinges or they break leaving us to weld the door shut, suspensions go, engines go. Grrrrr, frustrating.

My 5.7 hemi had 2 broken valve springs, replaced them. Now after a short time I have a check engine light on and code says cat problems. I hope this is not true. Can someone help me?

Took trip to Calgary. Needed fuel filters. Tried to get service on a Saturday. Couldn't get service. Here are some of the things I was told. Bear in mind this is a NEW DODGE DIESEL (OWNED LESS THAN A YEAR): This is our busy season so you will need to book after Wed. We don't have a mechanic in on Saturdays and one of the filters is tricky. It will leak if not done properly. Try Mr Lube. Mr Lube says too new a vehicle, we don't stock these filters (also remember I was told one filter is tricky so why would a dealership suggest Mr Lube). Sorry, we don't have these filters in stock.

Had an '03 Ram 1500 QC, never one issue. Not one. We bought an RV to haul behind it and 4.7 V8 struggled a bit, so we bought an 08 RAM 1500 QC with HEMI, much more power. Again NO issues other than the wiper motor being recalled... replaced while still working fine and the NEW one failed. Other than that, great truck. Just bought a new '14 RAM HEMI QC Lone Star nice, modern options, extremely comfortable, 8 speed, 8 inch radio display and 7 inch cluster display. Very nice.

We have a 2004 Dodge 2500 in EXCELLENT condition. Driver side bed has rusted out over the rear wheel. Two separate body shops have refused to repair the rust citing bad metal or primer for that specific year. Recommendation is to replace the entire "skin", cost approximate $2000 not including labor and paint. Any help??

The first vehicle was a 2014 Ram 3500 crew cab; had an electrical issue. First time in shop, had only 325 miles. After 4 attempts to fix problem, had to get an attorney. Bought the vehicle in February. Chrysler paid it off July the 7th. Bought a Ram 2500 crew cab on June 28th. In shop on July 9th, with 350 miles; transmission went out. I'll tell you something: All dealerships are the same after; they could care Less!! Bought my first one from Haddad Dodge in Bakersfield and my second one from Hunter Dodge in Lancaster. Both new trucks, neither one made it to 400 miles before they went into the shop. Should've kept my Ford Power stroke, was an awesome truck. Ram seems to have dropped its quality control to meet its high demand.

Transmission stopped shifting into 5 & 6 gears. Went from driving fine one day, to not shifting the next. No pieces of anything in pan when put on new valve body. Diagnostics keep saying new tranny. Not sure if it's related, but the dashboard indicator lights quit working after I had a new electric brake installed. Sometimes they flicker and go out, other times they are just gone. Sometimes they work fine for weeks and others they work for a couple minutes and only work again after I pull off the negative battery cables. The lights and turn signals all work, they just don't show it. And that electric brake is no longer working either.

The 1994 through 1997 Dodge Rams with the V10 engine had an ignition control module that selected the proper ignition coil. About 2002, Dodge discontinued this part (#56027978). As a result, when this part fails, the engine will only run on 6 cylinders and since there are no replacements, the truck is unrepairable. In my case, I have a truck with only 112,000 miles on it and it is only good for salvage. Retail value on this truck is about $8500 if it were running right, and I will have to eat the loss as the dealer won't even take it as a trade-in.

I bought the truck in May of last year with only 18000 miles on it. I changed the oil as soon as I bought it (DelVac Mobil 1, 15-40wt syn). Abt 3000 miles later I got the change oil soon message. So I changed it. Another 3000 mile goes by and I got the same message again, but this time I called my local Dodge Ram dealer (Huntington Beach). They told me that the 7500 mile oil change interval is just an approximation. I also noticed that when I drained the oil (into a 5 gal bucket) I noticed the oil level was abt an inch and a half from the top. The dip stick is hard to see if the oil level is higher than it should be. So I took notice to that, so now after another 3000 miles I took an oil sample via Quinn Cat. and it came back with low oil viscosity with an 8.5% of fuel in the oil.

2014 Ram 1500 4 x4 - Bought Ram new in March 2014. When it got 700 miles on it, it started smoking really bad on start up. It only does it about every two weeks. Been in shop at dealership 2 times - over a week each time. They have told Chrysler that it is steam, not smoke. I know the difference. Been going on over 3 months now and now in the last 250 miles the oil stick mark has dropped to the ADD mark. Still smokes when it wants to. Can I make them replace it with a new one?

2013 Dodge Ram 3500 - I have called for the past month about my truck. I use my truck for business but has not been able to work because the truck keep breaking down & now it's needing a part that they can't get.. I am not making money and wouldn't have purchased the truck for a recreational vehicle. I'm tired of calling people and getting no answer. I want out of this truck but do not want to jeopardize my credit that I've worked so hard to obtain.. What can or who can I talk to to get out of this bad truck...

Bought a Dodge Ram 1500 new on 3/3/2008. It came with lifetime power train warranty. Today, the truck's engine broke down and Chrysler is nullifying the warranty. Their reasoning is that there was an inspection due at the five-year point and it was not done. My problem is that the first time I heard of this "inspection" was today.

I have been a Mopar fan for a long time (that is all that I own). I needed new brakes on the front end of my 2007 Ram 1500, 4x4 four door pick-up ( the originals finally wore out). I usually do all of my own maintenance work on my vehicles, so I purchased new rotors, brake pads and small parts kit at my local parts supplier. Once I got into the job, I discovered that my new pads were much larger than the ones on my truck. Thinking that the counter man had made a mistake, I checked online to see what the correct part number was. The counter man had given me the correct part, apparently the factory had installed the brakes for a two door truck on my four door truck. These brake pads are significantly smaller than what should have been installed. I feel, that as a result, my safety has been compromised.

Cannot get parts for 1997 dodge 3500 van one ton. Chrysler just doesn't make them anymore.

2012 Dodge Ram 1500 4 X 4 - I just have to blow off steam. My husband's truck engine froze while working. Had the truck brought into Ray Brandt Dealership where it was purchased new from. 1st off on an expensive truck it is hard for me to believe that there is "NO loaner" that could be offered while checking my husband's truck out. After 3 weeks of me calling every other day we find out it is not covered under the Drive train warranty!!! Really? Abdul stated that Chrysler denied the claim, said the maintenance invoices looked fake? OMG and a rod was broken inside which "suggests" it was starved for oil? SO now I have a truck payment and 2 bills (1 for a rental) and 2 for a new engine that would not be covered. Why do we keep receipts for maintenance? They don't accept them anyway. I am very unhappy with Chrysler and his truck along with my 300 will be traded in and never buy another Chrysler product.... Shame on you, Chrysler.........

Steering box wore out before 50k miles.. Wasn't sure what the problem was.. but when the truck drifted continuously and had to severely correct steering constantly while driving, I figured it was alignment. At 52k I was at the dealership asking for an alignment to be done. They told me an alignment wouldn't help because my steering box is wore out. Wanted me to pay them 2800 dollars to put in new steering box and update the linkage to the heavier duty components. I was told Chrysler knows about these problems but won't fix them. Consumers have to flip the bill. I have a 2008 megacab hemi 4x4 I purchased brand new. Never has it been off roading and only towed short distances with it a few times.

I purchased a 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 5.7 HEMI Quad Cab with 30,000 miles. It was a big purchase for me so I couldn't afford costly repairs. Well, I picked the wrong truck for that! Within the first year the truck spent a lot of time at a couple different dealers getting the dodge "kinks" out of it. A steering box, steering pump, 2 sets of ball joints, 2 sets of axle joints, front bearings, lower control arms, front cv drive shaft, 2 tie rod ends, clutch and flywheel, front Y pipe and sensors, wheel hub assemblies and other odds and ends. Now after so much work the steering is soo tight that every small move on the steering wheel the truck swerves in that direction and will not center itself.

Went to dealer about tire pressure light for my 2014 Ram 2500. Changed oil, rotated tires while there. Light was back on by the time I got home. Explained to them that it wasn't the tire since the driver side sensor was off, even after they rotated tires. They decided to replace tire anyway. Light was back on less than ten miles from dealer. Went back the fourth time. Now being told it is the RK module? Which is part of the radio (brain) of the truck. This is back ordered, and they have no time line on it. Is there anyone out there that knows the person to complain about this poor customer service.

On 03-31-2014 I purchased a Chrysler Group- 2014 North American Map update for Uconnect 430N (RHB) for my 2012 Dodge Ram. When I received the DVD disk update I place the disk in the radio as instructed to do so by the instructions that came with the update DVD. According to the instructions there was to be a screen prompt that provided a Unit ID and a validation code. The next step was to access a computer and go to garmin.com/auto-update/maps/activate. However, I was never able obtain the two items(unit ID and validation code) because the DVD disk fail to provide these two items and went directly into downloading the new maps. When the disk went into downloading the new maps, it deleted the old maps. It takes about two hours to download the new maps with the vehicle running.

Door locks malfunction. Checked out, repaired, now a month later... same problem - module bad. Also tire pressure wont read on one tire intermittently. Dealer said that's a different module. Now getting radio problems and message to contact dealer as "phone inoperable." Every time have to go to dealer to check then return to repair when part available. Now saw parts back ordered. Very disappointed.

I purchased a brand new 2014 Dodge Ram 2500 Megacab with a Cummins and it is the single most regrettable purchase I have ever made. The truck feels like it's built to fall apart. It shutters and jerks when I get off the gas. It clunks into and out of gear like a 20 year old truck. There are rattles I can hear already in front and back. The key is currently stuck in the ignition for the 5th time since I bought it and I have a tow truck on the way. I've driven Fords for 20 years and NEVER dealt with any of this. Do yourself a favor and pick up a Ford. Or, if you insist on a Dodge, contact me and I'll give you a good deal on mine.

First I bought a brand new 2013 ram crew cab express. Problems with radio going out losing the screen then coming back. Also had problems with power locks the cause a pinched wiring harness. The dealership changed the radio twice, still had problems. So I turned in the truck with 3000 miles and upgraded to a 2014 ram. Thought that was better, no. The radio cuts out all the time and I only have 500 miles on new truck. The dealer has installed new software but after a couple days, the radio still cuts out, so they ordered me a new radio. Here we go again. I wish dodge would come up with an aftermarket radio that works, too much technology if you ask me. That is my gripe.

I have a 2013 Ram 2500 mega cab with a Cummins diesel. I bought my truck in January 2014 and have had nothing but problems with it. It's been to the dealership 4 times to have the pull corrected in the front end. Pulls to the right. Just recently had the uconnect display a message about service phone or something like that. Also just had my climate control stop working. Took it to the dealership and had them look at it. No codes came up. They said my aftermarket subwoofer would have to be removed to work on the climate control. Told them I wouldn't remove it because it has nothing to do with the climate control.

My boyfriend bought a 2011 Dodge Ram 2500. It was 69000 paid off same day. Well after a couple months of driving it, the steering was messing up. Then we received a letter saying there was a recall on left tie rod. Well we ended up taking it in to get fixed and have had them pretty much refuse us saying we need to take it to where we got it from, but I thought any Dodge dealership could help us. And before we found out about the recall we had spent 9 thousand to get it fixed and I don't think they did anything to fix it. We also spent 6 thousand on a service contract that doesn't really help us get anything fixes with truck. I just am so frustrated that we have a nice messed up truck and it's just been sitting in our front yard for the last two years. Does anyone know what we should do since I have no idea? I'm young and learning and really could use some direction in this problem. Thanks everyone. Have a nice day!!

I read all the posts on Ram trucks and lack of service and information. I ordered a new chassis truck, told delivery would be 2/28/14. To cut a very long boring story short, Ram don't know where the truck is. The phone # and live chat can't or won't answer any questions like where is my truck?! Then the Ram rep called the rail yard where the truck is and was told they were not releasing the truck!! WHY? Nobody knows. I asked for a list of dealers that had a similar equipped truck and was told to go to my dealer they should have one!!! They don't. That's why we ordered one. I give up. I told the dealer to get me a delivery date, have not heard anything. RAM yep.

In January 2013, we purchased a new Ram 1500 Longhorn - over $65,000.00. Eight months into ownership the air ride suspension system failed. Chrysler and 3 dealerships denied any issues with it. We are now in March of 2014. Truck has not been safe to drive since October 9th, 2013 due to failed suspension. Compressor overheats, ABS and Trailer brake system have thrown error codes for immediate service, Nav system randomly starts and was stuck on US roads, radio works on its own, heated and air conditioned seats work occasionally. The list goes on and on.

I have 2 Dodge Rams. One’s a ‘03 1500 Quad Cab with 4.7. Other is a ‘06 2500 Quad Cab. I bought the ‘03 in ‘05, and the ‘06 about a year ago. I bought the ‘03 with 20,000 miles, it now has 257,000. I've never had to do anything to it besides routine maintenance and suspension of course. And bought the 06 with 90,000 miles. Now has 127,000 and still no problems. I take great care of mine and never hard on them. I have quite a bit of friends who drives Rams and none of them has trouble really. So I don't know why so many people has problems with them. It’s the only truck I'll ever buy.

I bought a 2006 Ram 2500 Quad Cab 4x4 with the Hemi in December 2005. I loved the truck for it's looks, comfort, power and performance. I do not work the truck, except to plow my own 500 ft. driveway and to tow a 10 ft. enclosed motorcycle trailer to trade shows about 9 times a year, all under 200 miles each way. Other than that, it is used to commute to my shop, or for enjoyment, hunting etc. All was pretty good with it for the first 18K miles.

2003 3500 automatic 4x4. The transmission on any giving moment when you put it in Drive will engage third gear only, and at times it works perfect. I have been asked by mechanics to change the neutral safety sensor, speed sensor to no avail. I need a solution quick.

I happen to recommend Dodge trucks. Yes they have a power steering problem based on the tires being too big for the system installed. I own an 03 ram 4x4. In '04 I had steering problems, I bought a custom rack and pinion for 300 bucks, new greasable ball joints (the originals go dry and hard on steering) and the tallest narrow tires I could find. Along with a 35 dollar steering pump from jegs 4x4 so in total about 500 bucks. It's now 2014 and my Ram is still proving why I have nothing but Dodge trucks for the last 20 years. Every truck has it habitual problems (Chevy trans), Ford rear ends blown, Toyota body and frame rusting early. But if you own a truck and your dealer can't fix it, you need a new dealer!!

2006 dodge 3500 dually diesel 4x4 megacab - Love my truck don't get me wrong. Paying for it is one thing, keeping it on road is another. Not looking for legal action but want to say I was very happy when warranty was over and didn't have to listen to Dodge dealers lie to me and repeatedly bring my truck in to be left for entire days to fix minor things repeatedly. Unfortunately first major repair as failed transmission which was just after warranty. Bought truck new and never abused a day, never towed more than 27' travel trailer and did all recommended service. Before warranty was up needed steering pump, tie rod fell off in driveway, many u-joints, rear of vehicle issues and vibrations, tach is sporadic, wiper motor, and more.

Dodge Ram pickup. I want to start by saying this is all my personal opinion, take it or leave it, I just wanted to share my experience for anybody that is considering purchasing a diamer chrysler product. I have purchased over 179K personally of Dodge, Chrysler Jeep products, (this is not including the interest paid for financing) and I am truly upset over the lack of customer service for loyal customers as evidenced by the below correspondence from the corporation customer service. I also require fleet vehicles in my business, and have not included the dollars spent for dodge products (Trucks and Vans) in the totals.

Purchased a new 2013 Dodge 2500 from O' Daniels Chrysler in Fort Wayne, IN. In Oct. the 1st problems I had was with the steering & transmission. The truck would not steer straight down the road. I took the truck back to O'Daniels 3 times before they found a bad tire, and it still doesn't drive like other ones I have driven. The tranny jerks when it shifts, sometimes it clunks in really bad. O'Daniels said they could not find anything wrong. After taking the truck back several times, O'Daniels informed me that Chrysler told them it is normal for the Dodge 2500 to jerk & clunk into gear, so there's nothing they can do.

2006 dodge dually 3500 megacab. I bought new..had all the required book maintenance done. The six years I had it I spent $9000 in repairs. Everything from a 700 exhaust system to ball joints to tie rods..Universal joints...the last straw was a bad fuel ejector and bad computer control module. They said 4000 to fix..I would have went for a ford but they had my truck on the racks. I traded for a 2012 Laramie 3500 dually megacab. .12 miles a gallon..my other truck 5.9 got 22 to 23 mpg. Just seen a recall for the front end...thinking about trading for a ford before the headache begins. By the way my 06 only had 113000 when I traded it.

Well, where do I start. We bought a truck from Kernersville Dodge. It was a $3500.00 Dually and paid cash for the truck. We did this in October and we still do not have the title for this vehicle. We have called the dealer and Chrysler several times and each one has told me that the title was mailed. Then I spoke to a manager and she said, "Well, we don't have the title to send you," so she didn't know what the first 3 people were talking about. We think that the dealer had not paid off the truck and they still had a lien on the title. I couldn't tell you. I have never been lied to so much.

For the past two months, my truck has been in and out of three different dealerships. The truck stalls randomly. When it does, I lose steering and brakes. I have paid over $2000.00 in repairs and now the dealership wants another $1000.00 and said it might not fix the problem. Chrysler has been notified because the truck went into a ditch because of the steering and brakes went out when it stalled. The mechanic also notified Chrysler because they couldn't figure out what the problem is. Today Chrysler told me that there is nothing they will do and the only thing I can do is pay or trade/sell the truck because it is an '03 with 107000 miles. I have owned the truck for one year and three months. I understand that it is used and there is no warranty but when three dealerships and Chrysler techs can't figure out the problem, I think Chrysler should do more than what they are. I think that this is a very big safety issue and they would want to make sure that it was taken care of but it seems as if their only concern is for me to pay more money.

Purchased a used Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab with Hemi 3 months ago...191,000 miles. Nice truck, had a mechanic look at it. The Spark Plug coil pack melted on Sunday. Replaced it along with a fuse. This morning (Thursday), same coil pack did the same thing. Anyone know of issues regarding this? Called Dodge, they told me no recalls. The Dodge Ram is supposed to be a superior truck, but I've had it for 3 months and it's been in the shop 4 times! I had a Honda Accord for 5 years that was in the shop only 4 times in 5 years. Help!

The transmission shifted into 4th gear and would not shift from there into a lower or higher gear. The truck (2011 Dodge Ram 1500) has 79,000 miles on it. You could still shift it into reverse, but to go forward it was stuck in 4th gear. The truck is still at the dealer. They have told us we would have to pay for the controller they replaced even though this has not fixed the problem. They are now working on the internal parts of the transmission.

I bought A Brand new 2012 Dodge 1500 Ram and had to take it back to the dealer to get a moisture problem fixed, drops of water dripping from the ceiling of the cab. Dealer saw the problem said they fixed it and if it comes back I would get a new truck. The problem was not fixed, there is excess moisture on the dash. It's covered in ice after parking it overnight in winter and they refuse to repair my defective truck or give me a new one. I have never had this problem with any other new vehicle and am being stuck with a defective non-properly sealed truck that I bought new and paid cash for.

On 7/15/13, I purchased a Dodge Ram truck from Smolich Motors in Bend. I love the Truck but the finance officer wasn't clear and didn't explain all the extra cost he added on to our deal. After examining the paperwork within a month later, I decided to cancel the extended warranty and the service that I was told was free. I then decided to go through my credit union for the finance but they had to wait for the extended warranty to go through the other bank and be refunded first. 90 days later they finally refunded the $2,200. Then the service contract I was told would come directly to me and wouldn't have to go through the bank sense it was through the dealership and it would only take two to three weeks.

Car stopped running at 65 miles an hour. Engine seized due to slushy oil from over heating. Called dodge since I read a lot of complaints of this on the internet. Nothing was done.

I bought a new 2012 Ram Quad cab with the hemi in April of 2012. About the time I hit 7,000 miles on the truck, I developed a nasty vibration in the truck once you leveled out the speed at around 50 MPH. Being a Mechanic for a living, I started to pay attention to this vibration and accelerated to see if I could drive out of the vibration to which I was able to. This vibration was not there all of the time. It would come and go and had a mind of its own.

We had just purchased a 2012 Ram 3500 Laramie truck in January 2013. Since purchasing this truck, we have had the navigation system think it was in the USA as a default and system was reset in Feb. and had further issues with roads missing and thinking the default was again USA which was reset again in April. We were on a trip in Aug. and the navigation then would not recognize anything other than major interstates, including lakes or rivers... Everything seemed to be gone. Roads that were there for 50 years missing. That trip took me almost 4 hrs out of the way because it did not know the roads or see them. We had just returned the truck again for the third time with similar issues with Nav to Courtesy Chrysler Calgary, the dealer we purchased the truck from, and this time told they could not do anything as the system had all the latest updates and we need to go online to Navtech and tell them our problems and they may provide answers to our issues.

Truck bought used with very low miles same year of model. Truck maintained, waxed, etc. Paint has totally come off, rust and mold began to form. Dodge says nothing wrong...sure!!! History has shown Dodge trucks do not hold paint and you will need a paint job eventually.

Just purchased a 2011 Dodge Ram 1500 from Tate Dodge in Glen Burnie, MD 1 1/2 hrs away, 3 weeks ago. I started hearing a chirping noise at 5 mph on turns or driving straight after 4 days of purchasing. I took it to a closer Dodge dealer for inspection and they said truck has water damage . The technician says there is a lot of caked on mud, rust all the way in the bottom to top of vehicle. He explained that it shows signs of water damage. I explained this to Tate and they refused to refund me my money and no one has fixed the chirping sound.

I bought a 2001 model from Bonham Chrysler Lariat 1500CC and it is SUPER, except for the dash breaking up in it which was common for older models, but I just bought a dash cap repair cover and everything now is perfect. I don't know about the newer models, but the older are tried, tested and proven.

My husband bought me a 2011 Dodge Ram Buckhorn Edition truck for Christmas in December 2010. Six months after we purchased the truck, there was a recall notice for the rear main seal. The original dealership we bought it from (Town & Country) replaced seal. Not even a week after this was done, there was a noise from the rear end. So after 2 1/2 years and 3 dealerships and 4 caseworkers from Dodge, my truck is still sitting at dealership and Dodge Tech still not responding on what to do. Rear end was replaced (all components) except main rear end frame. Then they thought it was a leak from the exhaust system. Received 2nd recall notice in January 2013 for bolt for rear end which Dodge has not even manufactured or has available as of August 2013.

Bought a 2013 Dodge 2500 1000 miles check engines by came on. Then a window popped up. Said memory system not available. Not in park. Now can't use navigation system. Lights flashing across screen. Paid air of money for this truck. From what I see nothing ever gets done from Dodge. I want an answer. I do not want to be ignored. Thank you.

This will be a VERY short version. My husband and I have always worked, never had help from the government. Never had anything repoed or taken back. This was VERY VERY embarrassing & degrading! Bought our 2007 Dodge one ton truck. In 2010 we got behind on 2-3 payments and was contacting Chrysler each month to try to let them know we would send them money asap (I have all names and dates of all of this). Husband was working in Arkansas and the truck broke down, was told it was the fuel injectors. We had them fixed at the price of $3600. While the truck set at the dealership and we were waiting on our taxes to pay the bill, Chrysler contacted us and said they were repoing the truck. They felt that where the truck was sitting was dangerous and they would pick it up. We paid Chrysler $2025 to catch the bill up in full and take it off the repo list. Why would we pay them that much money if it didn't take it off the list of being picked up?

On the 20th of June 2013, I took a trip to West Virginia for a family emergency (597 miles one way). I fought my truck the entire way. Whenever I came up on a bridge with an expansion joint, I just held on for the ride and wait for the wobble to cease. My truck is a 2011 Ram 3500 DRW with the Cummins VIN # **. When I left, I had 12,200 miles on it. The truck now has 13,321 miles on it. This is also causing excessive wear on the front tires. When I left West Virginia to come home on the 23rd, my front tire pressure was 70 psi. I stopped at the halfway point at a rest area after experiencing a bad death wobble. I checked the front tire pressure. It was at 75 psi (higher due to heat). I dropped the air pressure down to 65 psi in hopes to ease the death wobble. Back on the road again, it seemed to help a little. The wobble was still there, but not as serious. After another hour or so on the road, the wobble came back, and I stopped again and checked tires. Front was at 68 psi. I dropped it down to 60 psi and started driving again. This time the pressure did not help the death wobble, and thank God for traffic in the city. I was forced to drive under 20 mph through the city.

I have told others about the key sticks in the switch. Also I had the truck towed to the dealer in Salisbury, MD. The tow company got the wrecker in my neighbor's yard and she charged me $400 to have the yard fixed. Then on top of that, they did not take my truck where it was supposed to go (to the dealership). Not only am I upset with the tow company, but with Chrysler. If this problem is not fixed, I am taking the the truck back to the dealer. I am going to leave it and get a Chevy truck. I expect this be taken care of and give back the money I have already spent. I will not go back to Dodge Chrysler.

A week ago, on June 25, 2013, I arrived home at 4 pm and left with a friend and was notified by my neighbor at 6:30 pm that my truck which had been parked since 4 pm was fully engulfed in flames. He held water from the garden hose on it until the VFD arrived to extinguish what was left. The end result is that from the cab forward, it is totally burned to the ground. With only liability insurance on it, it's a total loss with no idea how it caught on fire. The point of origin looks to be from the driver's side fender well area under the hood. I've heard numerous rumors of the fuse boxes shorting out, and/or the avs shorting out causing the fire.

Where do I start?! We purchased a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 new off the lot, after trading in our Dodge mini-van purchased new in 2004. Financing was really easy through Chrysler Finance. This was the only positive thing in all of our experience with this truck. The first year, we had problems with the gas cap light coming on, then the engine light. We had regular maintenance because we needed to have a reliable truck for our outfitting business. Within the next year, one day, the truck wouldn't even start. We found out that the anti-theft sensor in the steering column wouldn't accept our key. Again, we needed a new sensor; this was one of many to follow.

We bought a new 2013 Dodge Ram a week ago. My hubby was on his way home from work yesterday and he had a blowout. Now Dodge is charging us for the new tire. The truck is a week old. My hubby could have been killed. Very lucky my two year old son wasn't aboard. They are claiming that there is a nail hole in the tire and that’s what caused the blow out. As if passing over $50,000 to them for the truck wasn't enough. Now we are driving around with a 17 inch dummy tire on our brand new truck. She is off level from having 20 inch tires on all besides one. Something needs to be done about this.

Repeated failures with the ventilation system. Everyone I know who has a 2003 or newer Ram has had the same problems. Dodge knew the systems would fail but DID NOTHING to improve them. If you have the dealer fix the problems, it WILL happen again because they use the same cheap parts. Because it is so time consuming to fix the problem, labor will cost you at least $1,000. It doesn't matter if you have it fixed under warranty because the system will again and again as long as the same parts are used.

2011 Dodge Ram 3500 4x4 diesel. Less than a year old, the engine light would be on and off. As of November 2012, the engine will not start. It has been to 3 dealers with no conclusion of the problem. The computer has been changed along with other items. Chrysler now claims that the engine is out of warranty because of bad fuel. Not to mention, the last dealer who had it left the motor disassembled and pieces missing. I highly recommend anyone going for a Chrysler or Dodge product to seriously reconsider. This vehicle is costing me tons of money with my business, and personal costs such as attorney fees, tow bills, rentals, and loss of work.

2010 Dodge Ram - My truck makes a squeaky noise from the motor, and I'm told it's normal; some do it and some don't. It starts when it warms up after about 1-2 minutes and continues while idling. I have one more garage to check on it, but the dealer it was purchased from says it's normal. I find this hard to believe. I am hoping for a solution. I have 4 friends with the same truck, same year and no noise. I feel as though I'm not being told the truth.

New 2013 Dodge Ram 1500 Series ST 4Dr. 4x4 purchased at Crowfoot Dodge on April 15, 2013. They did not offer or have available a truck canopy to fit the truck box so I contacted Auto Truck Depot in Calgary to order a canopy for this truck box. They attempted to install the canopy on May 8, 2013 and discovered the truck box was installed at the factory by the manufacturer crooked. The defect is very visible looking down the passenger side from the rear when it meets the truck cab. It is even but looking down the driver's side from the rear when it meets the truck cab, it is 1 1/4" inside of the truck cab. The space between the truck cab and the truck box is 1 1/4" different from the driver's side to the passenger side.

My 2003 Dodge Ram pickup, with a 5.9 magnum engine and a 4x4 fixed differential, was rebuilt. Fourteen months later, it breaks down again. Fifteen months later, it can’t be rebuilt.

2013 Dodge Ram - I turned in a claim to Chrysler Corp. because of major rust on the rear axle. They said they are closing the claim because it didn't hurt the performance of the vehicle. The problem is that I looked at a lot of new Chevy Silverados and the axles are a bright black luster with no rust.

I bought a new Dodge Ram Lodestar edition 4x4, 2012. It has around 6000 miles on it. At 35 mph, I can hear a whistling noise when I let up on the gas (not changing the speed). I can tap the gas pedal and make it sound like a person whistling and I can change the tone also. It has been at the shop for 3 weeks and they came back and said it’s road noise. When I dropped it off, I let a tech go with me on a ride - he could hear it and he did. He said it should not make the noise. Now I have a new truck I can't drive due to the noise it makes

I purchased a used 2004 Dodge Ram 1500. Right after I did, it had a shake and grinding noise in the front end, so I took it in. They never put it on the lift; they just drove it and said there was nothing. I took it the next day to Dunn Tire. They found 2 tires with broken belts, so I had all 4 replaced. I told Fox Chrysler Dodge and they did nothing and said they couldn't hear the noise. Also, when I bought the truck before, as we were making the deal, there was a rust area on the driver side box wheel. Well, they told me they put new metal in as requested but it has started bubble rusting through. I have all the receipts from the 2 wheel bearings; I had to replace the tires, plus the rear end was leaking when they had it in once - I pointed that out and they never fixed it. I have the receipts from that also. I went to the Better Business site and filed a complaint (also the state DMV). I need help. These crooked dealers need to be stopped.

I have ordered a new 2013 Laramie Quad cab 4X4 1500 pickup. There was some confusion in determining what items were standard, etc. So after I ordered it, I wanted to build it on your Ram Trucks site to verify the options, etc. Your site just does not work and to this day, I cannot build the truck I ordered. I became so frustrated that I considered cancelling the order even if I lost my earnest money and purchase a Ford or Chevy. I cannot understand why any management group would allow a sales site to be online that is so terrible and basically does not work property. If I were a shareholder of Chrysler, I would show up at the annual meeting and see if I could get a reasonable response. I am sure as a repeating customer I have no influence.

1997 Dodge Truck - The clear coat has peeled off most of the hood and cab top and is spreading to the front fenders. It cost me almost $1,800.00 to repair the front suspension because there was no fitting on any joints. The fresh air intake allows trash to enter the system, which will build up over a 30 amp resistor and start a fire. It took almost 3 months to get the smoke smell out. Dodge installed a new resistor but did not repair the melted heater housing, which also affects the A/C during the summer.

1997 Dodge truck paint peeling off in mass - Lousy Dodge/Chrysler paint. Beware spending big bucks on a Dodge Ram or Chrysler product. The paint has peeled off the hood, top of the cab and almost every horizontal surface. It is also creeping down the sides. It is like a time bomb. It started about 4 years ago, like a timer went off. My last Dodge truck for sure. $2,500.00 to repaint. They have to strip it. I have friends with other brands of trucks with more miles and as old. They still have their paint.

I bought a leftover 2010 Ram 2500 6.7 Cummins from the dealer I work at. Since I bought it, it's had a vibration issue. The seat is fraying about. There was a sudden loss in power and a sudden drop in fuel mileage. The tires are cupping, the door seals are leaking, and I have added over 3 gallons of antifreeze. After having it in the shop many times, they still cannot find the vibration issue. They do all the recording, because I guess Dodge thinks that the computer vibration analyzer will pick up everything. After being without my truck for 3 weeks, Dodge told my dealer to return the truck to me and that everything was going to be fine - after they didn't have the dealer check for why the antifreeze was running low and why the oil was mysteriously overfull. They then proceeded to tell me that the transfer case seeping oil out was an acceptable oil leak. Are you kidding me? This is a 2010 leftover, newly bought in May 2012 with 7500 miles on it, and they say an oil leak is acceptable? Dodge will not stand behind their products and it's an act of God to get stuff warranty! I am very disappointed. Also, the fact is it's still in vibration and now seems worse than when I dropped it off!

2010 Dodge 3500 Laramie - Since purchased new, my truck has had an issue with a very hard downshift from the fourth to the third gear. I took it back to Chris Nickels dealership and to the dealership in Pryor, OK, but neither would drive the truck to duplicate the problem. South Pointe Dodge in Tulsa, OK finally took the truck in and drove it and duplicated the problem that I had been complaining about since the purchase. To the credit of South Pointe, they have tried several times to find the problem, but they cannot figure it out. I was recently told by South Pointe that there is nothing else they can do until something catastrophic happens. This truck on a regular basis downshifts so hard that it feels like you have been struck from behind by another vehicle. On wet roads, this truck’s rear-end will break loose as this hard downshift occurs. I have been more than patient and have put myself and my family at risk for 88,000 miles now. My patience is depleted as I will be expecting and will certainly appreciate your attention to this matter as soon as possible.

Warranty Service: My 2011 Dodge Truck (VIN **) was taken to Crown Dodge, initially, for a shimmy at 70MPH (on cruise control). The problem was noticed when I decreased my average speed from 75MPH to 70MPH to save gas. The problem exists when ascending/descending long hill. The truck was taken to Crown Dodge 4 times; each time, something was done to correct the fault. However, after being told it was fixed, I drove it home on the I-44 turnpike, and the situation each time was the same. The final analysis was that it is the nature of the beast - that engine has such torque.

I have a 2008 Dodge Ram truck. I purchased an extended warranty to 100,000 miles. At 95,000 miles, I took the truck in complaining it would not go backwards when in reverse. They talked me into servicing the transmission and said it was fine. At 102,103 miles the reverse clutches in the transmission fell apart and caused the transmission to go out. I thought Dodge would back their product but they said, "sorry, the warranty had expired." I really thought this was supposed to be a "Ram Tough Dodge Truck" but found out otherwise. I had to spend $4,600 to get the truck fixed.

I took my 2011 3500 Dually to the dealership in Sun City, AZ (Larry H. Miller) for service and was told that Dodge had a software update. I said don't do it because my last Dodge 2003 3500 Dually, Dodge made my fuel mileage go from 24mpg to 16. The dealership told me Dodge said I had to so they went ahead. Guess what happened? My mileage went from 17 to 11 on the hwy. Don't trust Dodge or your dealer.

Ram Country Dodge in Del Rio, TX, I had an appointment for the recall on the 2011 Dodge 3500. I was told it would take 2 hours. I left it at noon, went to pick it up at 6 pm because after several calls, it still wasn't finished mainly because they haven't even started on it. Finally, after speaking to the owner, I was told they would have it done in 30 minutes.

The top of our 2001 Dodge Ram truck has several places on top of the truck cab where the burgundy color is already faded and the clear coating is peeling away. Soon the spots will be down to bare metal and probably will continue to get worse. We want this problem repaired, at no cost to us, by the Dodge company.

We bought a 3500 Dodge Ram diesel truck with 22,000. We purchased an extended warranty for six years or 100,000 miles. Chrysler is refusing to honor the warranty.

I was sold a new Dodge Ram 1500. I was told on contract that towing package from factory would be installed. It didn't have a brake controller, or hitch receiver was installed by some other place. Since then, I have problems with the radio & brake controller. I was told it might cause problems with the computer and have had it in service 2 times. I want this taken care off or they replace the truck.

I have had my 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 Hemi for 6 months now. The first problem is Sirius radio does not work all the time. It cuts off and on almost constantly. Second, and most troubling, is the transmission is not shifting properly from over drive (6th) down to any other setting. It takes about 5 to 10 seconds to respond, and while in cruise, it will delay downshifting while climbing an incline for as long as it takes to drop 5 to 7 miles per hour before it reacts. The other problem is first thing in the morning, the transmission will not go into reverse. You start the truck and drop it into reverse, and it just sits there. Put it back into park and wait about 1 to 3 minutes, and it goes into reverse but backs up so slowly that you would swear it was freezing outside.

I just wanted to say I am disappointed with the rear coil spring suspension on my 2012 Dodge 1500. I have an enclosed trailer that weighs 2,800lbs and may have around 1,000lbs in it. The rear of the truck drops down drastically. I know the coil spring suspension gives it a better ride, but it ruined the carrying capacity. The fuel mileage has gone from 17.5 to 15.5 in the past week and I have not pulled anything or changed where I purchased the fuel or the grade of fuel. Maybe that will improve over time. Now I just have a truck that I really cannot use to its full potential.

I have a 2008 3500 dually. I had bought the vehicle new. The dealership where I had purchased it from is 65 West of St. Louis, MO. When I purchased it, they had a special for free oil changes. So, the dealer had done all the oil changes on this truck until it hit 50,000 miles. There is a sticker on the support beam by the radiator that states that the front drive shaft should be lubed at each oil change. There is also a note in the owner's manual that states that the drive shaft should be lubed. There is no zert fitting for the drive shaft and Dodge claims that it should be there, but they will not do anything about it. Dodge has taken the attitude of too bad, so sad.

I have a 2010 Dodge Ram 1500, which I purchased in November 2010. I purchased it because my 2009 had a gasoline leak, which my mechanic found. When I took it in, I also took it in for AC/HACV recall. They refused to allow me to leave with my truck. They said it was too dangerous, and they had no loaner. Now I own a 2006 Dodge Diesel, and this 2010, plus I have had nothing but Dodge products for the past 14 years. So when they refused my request, I asked them what I was supposed to do to get home and that my job required that I am on call as the Crisis Center Director 24 hours a day, 7 days a week; and my husband is the EMS Director for Atascosa County and he is also on call 24/7. Neither of us could be without a vehicle. Also note I was 32 miles from home.

I just traded my 2nd Dodge in from a 2010 to a 2012. I took it to the dealer for a problem with no A/C not coming out of the back of my crew cab and console not locking and a banging in trans when I go from park to reverse and drive. I was told it was okay but they have to order a center seat console cover. I took it back when cover came in and told them A/C was still not working and trans was still banging into gears. I was told the cover did not fit and they wanted to drive my truck to the place that installed leather 180 miles roundtrip and the trans was put on computer and it was fixed. But I did not want to have someone drive my truck 180 miles to order cover and I would come back but they never called me back, so I went to pick it up and they were closing but was told trans was okay and it is still banging. I want to bring it to a service center closer to my home, 07074, but no one will give me a loaner car.

I took my truck in to remedy the MIL light. The dealer (Somerset Jeep/Chrysler) took the transmission all apart and then told me they can't get the parts to fix it. I called a dealer that told me the parts are readily available. Now the repair shop won't answer my calls. I explained to them I can't be without a truck as I'm a building contractor, but to no avail. Off the record, a parts man who told me the parts are available said that because it's a warranty work, there is no money in it for them. Well, there won't be any money in it for them when I buy my next new truck either. A Ford!

I just purchased my 5th Dodge Truck 2012 2500 Super Duty Crew Cab, had leather installed in by dealer and console was very hard to open. So I was told they will order a new cover and install it. I also told them for the second time that my automatic transmission is banging when I go from park to reverse and drive, was told that they put it on the computer and it was a stabilizer bar that needed some grease. They were closing but trans problem is still banging. What is my next move? I do not want to give the name of the dealer because they are all nice to me when I drop my truck off and go out of the way to help you. I just want my truck with problem switched out or correct the problem.

My driver's side airbag deployed in my 1995 Dodge Ram 2500 as I was driving down the road on Monday. I did not hit anything; it just deployed. I spoke to Chrysler and they told me that because my truck is 17 years old that they are not going to do anything. They are not even interested in finding out why it happened? I know that there are thousands of these trucks still on the road and I think that it is ** of them to not care because of the age of the vehicle. My truck is in great shape and is well taken care of and I am very disturbed with the experience that I just had with them. This may make me think twice before buying another Dodge.

2009 Dodge Ram 3500 Dually: Front axle u-joints went out at 46000 miles. The vehicle is for highway use only, and it's well-maintained. I believed this should not have been replaced until 100,000 miles. I have bought 5 new pick-ups in the last 10 years and will now start looking at other companies for a new pick-up due to this not being covered by Dodge. People at the dealership did not care.

Since we got the Ram Dodge 2007 1500 pickup in 2008 from the dealership, the 4 wheel drive truck will all of a sudden die when I hit some bumps on our dirt road where we live (I am not 4 wheeling either, I have kids in the car). This happens randomly. We have taken it in now for 3 times. First time, they said they saw that it happened on the computer. However, the second and third time, they said they didn’t see it and that it was because my key chain was too heavy. Since 2008, it has died while driving on my dirt road at least 8 times. I just pray it never does it on a bumpy road, on the freeway or highway. Does anyone else have this problem? I don’t take it to the dealership anymore because they say it is because of my keys. Well, I changed it so now it is light so it can’t be that.

I purchased a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 Mega Cab with a 6" lift and 35" tires on 20" rims 2 years ago from a Florida truck dealership. I enjoy doing the car/truck show circuit throughout the Northeast US with friends in it. It’s a beautiful truck and I got thumbs up everywhere I went with it. I was happy with it up until about 6 months ago. I noticed quite a few "dimples" in the paint on the driver side rear fender. A short period later, like a month, I noticed that the factory paint had a bunch of tiny bubbles in it which looked like pink dots. I took it to a few body shops in my area and 4 out of 5 called it "solvent pop". They all said it was a Dodge/Chrysler issue. After speaking to Jamie **, who never returned a phone call to me, they said, "No, sorry, but we can't help." Then they followed it with a "because I am the second owner.” **!

The dashboard cracked for no reason in the same place everyone else has complained about, left side and above the glove box. 76,000 miles and 9 years old and Dodge, knowing it's a problem, said sorry. Guts, glory, Ram junk!

2011 Dodge 1500 Truck Crew Cab, Dark Red - Real simple things: The brake pedal makes a popping noise when you push it down or let it up. I've now tried on 3 different times to get that fixed. This last time I was told they could not duplicate the problem. What a sorry excuse. The second time I was in their garage they could hear it and sprayed the brake pedal with some kind of lubricant that lasted for approximately 2 weeks, then the squeak came right back! There is a problem with the CD player, it skips towards the end of the CD songs - it rattles, and if you hit a bump, it ejects the playing CD. The mechanic claimed he could not duplicate this problem as well.

At 35000 km, my Dodge Ram 3500 Cummins developed a coolant leak. It's so serious that it was towed the dealership. As it turned out, one of the 2 bolts that hold the pump in place had come right out. Now, it gets good! I was told that they have to order this bolt. One bolt, what could be special about this bolt that it could not be found anywhere but at a MOPAR warehouse?

I have a 2007 Dodge Longhorn Ram 3/4 ton Diesel 6.7 engine. Dealership tells me the engine is too heavy for the front end. At 55,000 miles, both front universal joints had to be replaced and brake pads were also replaced. Also, it needs ball joints replaced. Dealer tells me the front end is designed for the 5.9 engine, not the 6.7. To get all the repairs done, it will be $2,000.00. I bought the truck new from the same dealership. The service was to going to be done by them. Has Dodge mess up to the problem or are they going to pass it on to the consumer?

Just over 2 years ago I purchased a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab 4x4 from Vasko Dodge located near Canonsburg, PA. The truck has 23,000 miles on it. The truck currently has just over 36,000 miles on it. During my 13,000 miles of ownership to date, the following has been replaced or repaired on this truck (majority of which were sold to me this way): broken front wheel; air filter with 1/2 inch of dirt; windshield wipers; windshield washer fluid empty; front tie rod end; front coil overs/struts; repaired dent/rust on tail gate (Part of Sales Agreement/I paid a discount); tires; front brakes and rotors; rear brakes and rotors; transmission fluid; trans axle fluid; transfer case fluid; spark plugs; anti-freeze; fuel injectors had to be cleaned so engine would idle properly; gas cap; pressure sensor for gas tank (so check engine light would go out); and serpentine belt.

We took our 2008 truck to the garage to get it fixed, cost us $700.00. Now, they are telling us the tie rod needs to be replaced. The mechanic that my husband talked to said that you now have to replace the whole thing, that they changed it; it is going to cost us around $1,000.00 to get this replaced.

On 2/22/12, I took my '06 Dodge Ram 1500 to the Jeff Wyler Chrysler/Jeep Dealership at 100 Alexandria Pike, in Ft. Thomas, KY in response to not one but two recall announcements. After the dealership repaired the turn signal malfunction, I received a call telling me the "lug nuts bloated" and not easily coming off. I was then informed it would cost me $159.60 for new lug nuts and replacing. In view of the fact, I was there in response to a Chrysler recall to replace a hub bearing which required removing the wheels. It amazes me the dealer doesn't have a lug wrench to remove the original lug nuts. I discussed this with the service manager to see if this was an unusual occasion. The response was a yes. At that point, I began to suspect this is one of those dealer scam occurrences. I called the Chrysler Dodge Ram Case Management Group in Detroit. After playing "telephone tag" with a "Leslee" for week to finally get her to understand which Jeff Wyler dealership in KY and OH I had dealt with, she was very unsure of the next steps.

Our Dodge Dakota began peeling its clear coat on the roof. Then it also happened on the roof, and now there are also small patches in other areas. The truck needs to be painted to maintain a rust free paint protective base.

The timing chain broke on my 2007 Ram 1500 4x4 5.7L hemi engine with 53,000 miles. After an internal inspection, it appeared as if the timing chain tensioner was to blame. It is a stamped metal piece with plastic runner clipped onto it to keep the timing chain tight. Well, it look as if these plastic pieces failed causing the timing chain to grab the metal on the tensioner and rip it apart snapping the chain and locking up the engine.

The 2001 Dodge Durango is the biggest mistake of my life. About 16 months ago, I bought a 2001 Dodge Durango. I only had it for 9 months when the engine started to make a loud, knocking noise. I kept all my oil dates and maintained the vehicle as needed. I was told that I needed a new engine. Not only that, but I had several issues with steering and air conditioning.

The 2005 Ram1500 was purchased new from Spitzer Dodge in Homestead, FL. I noticed when I was waxing it last month, the paint on the driver's door is starting to bubble from internal rust. I wrote and spoke to Dodge. They said they couldn't help me because it was outside the time warranty (5yrs) and referred me to the dealer. The dealer couldn't help me, even though the service manager (Mr. **) agreed it shouldn't be rusting and bubbling. It may be over the time warranty but it only has 58,000 original miles and not a mark on it. No body damage at all. Please warn people that Dodge has not remedied their paint problem from the past and they won't stand behind their product. I am stuck with a $700.00 estimate for a repair that is clearly a factory defect.

Dash is cracked beyond repair which poses a hazard for cut fingers and also if I were in an accident piece of plastic dash would impale me.

My Dash has busted beyond repair just from hitting a pot hole in the road. Can I get someone to help pay for a new one?

My complaint is regarding my 2012 Ram 1500 Laramie 4X4 Crew Cab. I specially ordered my truck and waited a little over a month for delivery. On the day of delivery, I did a general inspection to make sure the truck had 4 tires and that the gauge display had worked. I followed my wife back home and then parked the truck in my driveway by itself. We went in for a few hours came back out as I helped her into the passenger side of the truck. I noticed that on the b-pillar next to the door latch the truck had a dime size paint chip missing down to the bare metal. I phoned the dealer and was told they'll take care of it. I had my wife take it in. My wife noticed that at the same time the plates were wrong, commercial instead of passenger. So they said they would fix that.

I purchased a 2011 Dodge mega cab 4x4 longhorn edition dually last year ($54,000) because I owned a 2006 same truck and it was great to me. This 2011 has been a big headache. It has a horrible vibration and a loud clunking noise when you let off gas or give it gas. It is doing this since day one. I am back and forth to dealer, till I filed for lemon law. Florida only covers vehicle up to 10,000 GVW and the truck is rated for 10,500. Bunch of bull crap.

I have a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 Mega Cab 4x4 which was bought new with a lifetime power train warranty. The oil pressure gauge went down several times, which I pulled over and sometimes the minute I did the pressure picked up. Most of the time I killed the truck for a few seconds and restarted and pressure picked back up. I took it to Rockwall Dodge. They kept it for a week and told me they could not duplicate and to keep driving it. If it happened again, to not turn it off, and drive it to them. I told them I am not driving my truck with no pressure. Few months later the rod broke in the motor. The field rep said there was sludge in the motor and denied my claim, saying it was not maintained.

My overall experience with my 2010 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 Mega Cab is a nightmare! From day one, the truck had a wobble and still does. mind you not this truck was new and now has 30k miles. It has gone through 3 steering boxes, 2 tie-rods, rear end replaced 2 times, 6 radios, windows have scratches all the way down (poor design), u-joints, 5 sets of tires, ball-joints linkage.

2009 Dodge Ram 4X4. On December 2, 2011, I took the truck to dealership for seat belt light in dash. They could not fix the first time. Second time, they fixed the light. After that, the gas gauge was stuck on full. Three times I took back the truck, still not fixed. The dealership emptied 1/2 tank of gas and dispose of it. The gauge moved to 3/4 after they called me to pick up the truck. I was told the problem was corrected. I filled up the tank with gauge showing 3/4. It took 21 gallons. The tank capacity is 26 gallons. The gauge is back to full and will not move after 80 miles. The truck has 17,710 miles. As of Jan. 4, 2012, the gas gauge is still not working. I will not rest until this truck is fixed, then trade it in for a Toyota or Ford. 3 years warranty ends on March 31, 2012.

I purchased my 2007 2500 diesel truck brand new from the dealership. After 3 months, the truck was in the shop for the first of many visits. By 40,000 miles, I had replaced the batteries 3 times, driver and passenger HUB assemblies, wheel seals and 4-wheel drive. By 60,000 miles, the transmission was blown. By 80,000, a "death wobble" had started that is unfixable.

2008 Dodge Ram 3500 with a severe front-end wobble. I purchased this vehicle used from a Chevy dealership with 46000 miles on it. At 50000 miles I had a violent wobble that started at the right side of the vehicle, spreading to the left, then moved to the back of vehicle. This wobble shook all in the cab of the truck. I returned the vehicle to the dealership where it was purchased in April 2011. There was no problem found with the front of the vehicle, so the dealership contacted a local Chrysler dealership that had no knowledge of "known front end problems" but suggested it could be caused by a worn tire. This dealer rotated the tires, balanced, and did a front-end alignment, which was covered by an extended warranty I had purchased; yet no failed components were found. This death wobble (as shown on the net) continued and at the present time it is at a Chrysler dealership.

I bought new a 2008 2500 Dodge Ram work truck with the 6.7L Cummins engine. I pamper this truck. it is almost shameful how lightly I use this machine, but sometimes I need to tow small work trailers while the truck is loaded over short distances. It is a manual shift 6 speed. I now have 45,000 easy miles on it. I am now 1,000 miles into the second clutch on the truck, and (thanks to Crown Dodge in Ventura Ca. and some worn-out ball joints) I am $6,400 poorer! I was told then that 35,000 is "all you can expect out of a Dodge clutch." The truck also only gets 12.3 MPG empty on the freeway!

My 2011 Dodge Ram Laramie Crew Cab 4x4 built on 5/16/2011 and purchased on 7/24/2011 has an air turbulence problem in the A-pillars of the front doors. It has been to the dealer three times. Mine was built after they redesigned the door gaskets yet after 60 mph the turbulence becomes an issue. I can't find anything on this problem and if it is not a recall or in a TSB, Dodge doesn't seem to want to admit there is a problem or want to try and fix it. The doors were readjusted yet the issue is still there.

Purchased a 2011 dodge 1500 4x4 Laramie 5.7 Hemi new in April 2011. Get in truck just seven months later and it will not drive. No gear action. Had it towed to the dealership and day one, the tech says he doesn't know the problem. Day two, doesn't know; day three, ask me why the transmission fluid looks new. Heck, I don't know, you tell me. Day four, informs me that it's the transmission pump. It's shot. In seven months? I've been seeing a lot of transmission complaints about dodges. Makes one wonder.

I own a 2006 Dodge Ram 5.9l, I bought it new. 2yrs ago the truck wouldn't start. Took it to the dealer and was told the fuel was contaminated and the entire fuel system needed to be replaced. It wasn't under warranty due to the reasoning and they filed against my insurance for the $13,000.00 of repairs. Now 2 more years have gone by since then and we now have the same issue, again. This time $13,000.00 out of my pocket. After looking into it and researching...Bosch told Dodge the injectors and CP3 injection pump cannot handle trash in the fuel and that dodge needed to update their filter to a lower micron (2 micron filter), which they didn't and the consumers are out thousands of dollars. I'm quite surprise there isn't a class action suit for this one yet.

I have a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 that I bought brand new. Since I have had the truck, several components have failed-- transmission wiring, emission control system, wheel bearings, tail light wiring, control module, powering steering pump, transfer case and now the ignition.

While picking up the 2007 Ram, I found water under the back seats. The sales representative assured me it was due to the cleaning and washing of the truck, and if this was a window leak, the dealer will service it. It rained last night, and I found plenty of water under the seats. Now the dealer sale representative and manager denied seeing and saying that the dealer would be responsible for the leakage. I need the rear window to be repaired; the rain or water is affecting the structural integrity of the car due to corrosion. Needless to say, the mildew and smell inside the car is not acceptable. If I would have been aware of this issue, I would have never bought the truck.

I own a 2004 Dodge Ram 3500 Dually truck, and it has 64,900 miles on it. I took it to an authorized factory warranty service center for mopar. They have told me that I need either a rebuild or new transmission. I opted to get the new transmission from Chrysler/Mopar. I sent an email to Chrysler.com. I explained that I have less that 65,000 miles on the truck and that I had to pay $4,000. I received a call from Sabrina; she said that my truck was still under warranty, and she would investigate.

A plastic cover blew off the passenger side mirror of my 2009 Dodge Ram 1500. This occurred while I was driving. I went to the Clear Lake Dodge to get a replacement plastic cover prior to any electronic damage occurring due to environmental exposure. I purchased an extended Bumber/Bumber warranty program at the time of purchase. This is still valid. I was told this was cosmetic and would not be covered under warranty. The mirror, however, would have been covered. There is nothing wrong with the mirror.

My 2008 Dodge Ram 1500's motor blew up on Aug 6. This particular model is not covered past three years/36,000 miles. I bought it used and the first owner didn't buy the extended warranty.

My Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 SLT pickup has a severely cracking dashboard, and it has been an obvious manufacturers defect for many years. It is getting to the point where the dash could become dislodged in pieces and either fall into the dashboard area or worse, shatter in sharp pieces in the event of a collision. I called the customer service 800 number and was told that even though I am the original owner of the vehicle, that Dodge would do nothing to make my vehicle safe for me and my kids because there were too many miles on the truck. Sad thing is that the truck has been an excellent vehicle, fun, completely reliable, and I won't buy another Dodge product because they won't fix a cosmetic issue that could be very dangerous.

Failed to repair my 2011 Dodge Ram 1500 on more than two occasions. The truck has caused me more grief than ever;I have been a loyal Dodge owner for over 10 years.

I have a dark blue 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 crew cab with a 5.7 Hemi. The truck is in excellent condition; has been garaged, and very well maintained all of its life. Recently, the driver side bed paint started to blister and bubble. I can't figure how a vehicle that is well maintained would do this when only six (6) years old, but after extensive research, I have discovered most owners of 2002-up Ram trucks have the same problem.

I purchased a 2006 Dodge Ram Quad cab (3/4 ton diesel pickup). I wanted a good pulling pickup that would get better gas mileage than my gas pickup. It did not happen. When I asked the service guy, he said it needed a break-in. Why did my niece get almost 30 miles to the gallon on her diesel with a load and an automatic while I get 9 miles to the gallon with a load and a manual shift? Did I get the shaft?

Purchased my 2011 Dodge Ram 2500 diesel truck from them in April. When I picked the vehicle up, I noticed "drip" marks in the paint on the tailgate. The general manager told me that there would be no problem with them taking care of that for me. I also noted that the paint all together had severe orange peel throughout the vehicle. After having the vehicle for a month the sheet metal on both doors and both rear quarter panels are rippling. I have been to the dealership more than six times now trying to remedy these problems and am being told by the general manager that Chrysler itself will not fix these problems for me. The only thing they will fix is the tailgate.

I purchased a new 2004 dodge ram. It was a lemon. It kept stalling and had it towed 3 times. Now, I have a 2004 dodge ram and it does the same thing as the one in 2004. Someone is going to get hurt in this truck. Dealers and dodge will not do anything. Soon, I am going to publish nationally to get this resolved. I need help from someone on this before this truck causes an accident. This is a long story and I need legal help on this.

I have 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel 4x4. And the dodge body is falling apart due to rust, rusting from the inside out, bottom of doors rust holes, cab corners holes, box rust holes above wheels wells. This is to the point of a complete make over big money. Dodge has never fixed this problem of rusting body parts. This truck has been taken care of, washed often and waxed. Body shops say that general repair is not an option and must replace with new parts.

The local dealership said to bring my 2009 Dodge Ram in for transmission problem. They tore it down and said several clutches were bad and transmission oil was burned. The truck has 10,000 miles on it at this time. After 3 weeks, I called Dodge Complaint Department at 1-800-763-8422, it has now been over 5 weeks they have had my truck. All they will tell me is that they don't have any transmissions for my 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 Truck, and that they are sorry and they know how I must feel. Well guess what, they don't know how I feel! As soon as I get my truck back, I am trading it for a Toyota, so much for buying American.

About 1487 formal complaints about the cracked dashboards and the safety hazard they posed is not being corrected by Dodge. They have now offered me 1/2 of the cost to fix their factory defect and I think it is unfair with a total cost of $2,000. My beautiful truck is not worth anything with only 85,000 miles because I don't have a dash. I have pieces held on by tape. Daily, other pieces fall off as I drive. They should have a recall and stand behind their product so we can continue to buy American.

My wife and I own two Dodge Rams. A 2003/4.7 and a 2005/5.7. Recently, the 03 lost oil pressure so I had a friend that is a mechanic trained by a Chevrolet dealer assist me in repairing my truck. We pulled the engine and took it apart to find that the oil pan was painted on the inside from the factory and the paint began to peel away plugging up the oil pickup causing the loss in oil pressure.

The hood damage was two dents to the front/top of hood and the back corners at the hinge points were mangled. It scared the heck out of me. It has left me with a sense of distrust of the security of that hood.

At 63,000 miles, the tie rod fell off my 2008 Dodge Ram 3500 causing me to go into a ditch and under a wire fence. After calling "roadside assistance", I was told that towing was covered and to have it towed to the nearest dealer which happened to be 45 miles away. It took a special investigator 5 weeks to make it over to the dealer to inspect the truck! The report he filed stated that all damage found was from impact. Well, duh, the dealer had replaced the tie rod. All the parts were there which he photographed. After 2 more weeks of calling, being shuffled around, I finally turned it in to my insurance.

My 03 Dodge Ram 4x4 diesel, a 40,000 dollar truck, has axel joints that wore out at 70000 miles right when my warranty ran out. Even though both axel joints were worn, they only replaced one under my warranty. And after only 1000 miles, the other side was falling out. Bringing the truck back to the dealership, they charged $100 to replace the other axel joint. I consider that $100 the first foul on their part. 58,000 miles later, my front axel joints that the dealer replaced are again worn out. Should it be my responsibility to replace this at $400? This is not a simple repair but a major one. The axles need to be extracted and the joints pressed out in a shop. This is a heavy-duty 2500 Ram diesel and should not be unusable in only 60000 miles. It’s neither heavy duty or dependable. It’s whimpy and predictable.

Purchased a used 2004 Dodge Ram in 2007 from Christopher's Dodge World in Golden, CO. Ran fine for 2 years, we had regular oil changes and maintenance done on it. One day while driving it, the engine quit working. Called Christopher's Dodge World and they said to tow it in because it was still under power train warranty. Then they called us back to say that there was sludge in the engine, so it wasn't covered under warranty. They didn't care if we had done oil changes or not!

My 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 pickup steering linkage snapped at inner tie rod and Chrysler says it’s my fault. There was a recall H46, but they say only for one part under recall, and they now have a new redesigned steering linkage that I can purchase. I was out of work for 2 days, stressed. My children have to walk home from school on a very country road; they are 12 years old. No rental, no vehicle.

I have Dodge Ram electrical issues with brakes, more than 10 times of the same issue, 4 times with this dealer. The truck came back with a washer fluid bottle cut in half and placed over the ABS modules. No one wants to step up and buy it back, or truly fix it. In 2004, I bought it out of a Ford lot, under a Ford esp, Ford points to Dodge, and Dodge says it's Ford's problem! The truck has a warranty running out, with major issues. I guess I have to burn in a fire for something to be done.

My 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 truck lost power and I had no steering control at all. This is the second time it has happened--both times with kids riding inside. If this happens when I am traveling at a higher speed than the 15 mph I was traveling, someone could get hurt or die if I get into an accident. So far, no damage yet.

We bought a dealer demo 2007 Dodge Ram 4wd, also bought an extended warranty. In under 60,000 miles, we have had shocks/struts, rotors, o2 sensor, EGR valve go bad. We spent $600 every 15,000 miles for servicing the truck. My husband is a former mechanic. It's not like we are mistreating this vehicle. We are stumped. Were we sold a lemon? Is anyone else having these issues in a 2007?

The transmission of my 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 4wd had to be replaced after 48,000 miles; torque converter problem. After going into Dodge dealership, they said that the oil was just really dirty when at 30K miles, I had the oil changed and had a deep dish pan put on to help it stay cool. Dodge told me that they could replace it for $4000 and they told me that those Tranny's are just not made to pull anything. Well, I pulled a motorcycle trailer maybe 4,000 lbs once or twice a year and that's it. I went ahead and replaced it with an after market tranny. Why spend 4k to get a tranny that fails at 48,000 miles. They say that the cummins is a 300K mile motor that means I should replace my tranny six times in the life of the motor and also while in the shop, I had them checkout the front end and found that I needed all four ball joints at $1500.

It has been a month and still do not have my service on. I have asked many times for a manager or supervisor. All I get is, "No, I can't." They have been incompetent every time I have talked to someone. They have made mistake after mistake blaming me. I needed a business line. They transferred me back and forth until they set it up. It was wrong. I waited all day. No one showed. It goes on all day. They set me up again. I was five minutes late getting here. I called them back. He said, "Sorry, we cannot come back," so rescheduled me seven days later. Never showed up. Never called once to tell me anything or a sorry.

The issue is with the tie rod ends on my Dodge Ram 1500 with 40,450 miles on it, parts availability and price. I first went to AutoZone and got two tie rod ends which cost $82.27 for both and have a lifetime guarantee, I took them home and found they did not fit, so I returned them, hoping to get the correct set of tie rod ends. Unfortunately, AutoZone was unable to order the correct tie rod ends. Next, I went to Kragen, who also was unable to order the correct tie rod ends; they said it was "unavailable".

It's a 2000 Dodge Ram 1500. I purchased it new in Sept 1999. I followed scheduled service maintenance. In April 2006, the truck displayed check engine light. The diagnosis was tcc transmission solenoid (replaced). In January 2007 the truck once again displayed check engine light. The diagnosis was that transmission needed replacement with 84,000 miles on the odometer. I had the transmission replaced with new transmission at Rod's 2 ride with 3/36000 warranty card from Mopar. I contacted Chrysler and pleaded for splitting of cost. I was told by supervisor on phone (absolutely not) since warranty expired at 70,000 miles. In 2008, long cracks appeared on the dashboard. 2In 009, the compressor, clutch fan and air condition units had to be replaced. In January 2010, the transmission slips, overdrive and transmission lights came on with 33,000 miles on new transmission. I contacted Chrysler again. Chrysler is trying not to honor warranty but they suggested that vehicle be towed to Dodge dealer( Stevens Creek Dodge) in San Jose. I towed truck to dealer with warranty in hand. The service rep quoted me with price of repairing transmission even with warranty in hand. Chrysler reference # is1921106.

I have recently replaced the transmission for the third time in my 1994 Dodge Ram 1500. I am now stranded again without a vehicle because the torque converter went out and took the whole transmission with it. I've been told every time that this transmission is notorious for dying. Well, why can't this problem be fixed by having a total recall of these transmissions? Dodge should be held responsible for knowingly putting a faulty transmission in a heavy duty truck. I don't know about anyone else, but I personally have spent over $6,000 in repairs.

My 2003 Dodge Ram 2500 Quad Cab 4x4 has failed me in the following ways: power window motor- warranty; serpentine belt tension bearing - warranty, $100 deductible; and ventilation directional control at $35 part, quoted $800 labor cost. I fixed it myself. This is apparently inherent with these trucks. They now tell owners not to change the directional control while the fan is on or it will break the cheesy little flap inside. It is still a problem with the new model year.

We have a 1999 Dodge 1500 Quad Cab Truck. The dashboard is cracking and falling apart. I have researched this and I know this is a common problem with the trucks. I want to know if Dodge is planning on doing anything about this and who and where should I go with this problem.

Hood latch released and smashed windshield and bent hood hinges.

My husband and I purchased a brand new 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 Sport in July 2007 and 11months later the paint bubbled up and is peeling off at the bottom of the tailgate. My husband took the truck back to the dealer figuring it would be covered by the bumper to bumper warranty. They called us a few days later saying it wasen't covered by the warraty. I just don't understand how a truck that I paid 30,000.00 not even a year ago that has a paint defect is not covered under warranty. We are so furious.

I own a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel purchased in Dec 2005. In May 2006 I had gone to the local dump to put garbage in the dumpster. The vehicle was still running but I put the car in park, walked around the front of the vehicle and let my 4 year old daughter out of the passenger side, walked back around to drivers side to unload the garbage. The front driver's side door was open and my daughter was standing in front of it. As I lifted myself up on the tire to remove the trash bags from the bed of the truck, the truck started rolling backwards and pinned me between the garbage dumster and the bed of the truck.

I tried to duplicate this in a large parking lot to no effect. What is baffling is this only happens occasionaly. Not at every panic stop. The brake pads and rotors were replaced by a Dodge dealer and at STS Service centers there is no change to the situation.

While driving on interstate highways you never know when it will start shimmying and shaky after hitting a bridge entrance or a bump in the road. There is no pattern so you never know when to expect it, I have had the tires rebalanced and installed a new factory steering strut but I will still do it. The only way to gain control of the vehicle is to hit the brakes and slow down 35 to 30 MPH before it will quit shaking. This is very dangerous and other people have had the same problems. Why doesn't Dodge/Chrysler fix it like they did the Dakota's???

I BOUGHT A 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 AND HAD ALOT OF POWERTRAIN PROBLEMS WITH IT.SO I TRADED IT IN FOR A 2005 AND I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS ONE TOO!TRANSMISSION SHAKES WHEN SHIFTING OR WHEN TORQUE CONVERTER KICKS ON OR OFF.IT IS A VERY ROUGH RIDE!CHRYSLER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM IN THE MIDDLE OF JULY2005 AND I STILL HAVEN'T HEARD A THING BACK.MY LOCAL DEALER HAS BEEN WAITING FOR A RESPONSE.CHRYSLER COULD AT LEAST LET US KNOW IF THEY ARE WORKING ON SOMETHING OR A RECALL SO WE WONT DRIVE OURSELVES NUTTY WORRYING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM!THEY ARE LOSING MY BUSINESS.I WAS ALWAYS A CHEVY MAN ,I DON'T KNOW WHY I EVER SWITCHED.THANK YOU.

In October 2003 I purchased a used 2001 Dodge Ram Sport 5.9L 4x4 from Foothill Ranch Chrysler Jeep Dodge in Foothill Ranch, Ca.(Orange County)... Since I have had the truck it has been in the repair shop an average of once every 5 weeks and has been nothing but a headache. AND MOSTLY FOR MAJOR REPAIRS!!!!

Braking vibrations;(referred to as (Breaking Sensation) started after purchase of NEW Ram Oct? 2002(returned several times (after putting me off for a year while FINDING THE PROBLEM) (the problem was NEVER FOUND it was only COVERUP until warranties run out and there's nothing THEY CAN DO, also attempted to sue Chrysler-settled $4000 and a promise not to bother them with problems of my brakes or transmission)(the trans gave a slipping sensation at certain times and occl. bang when changing gears. I complained about the softness of the paint. (scratching the paint to the primer when a sneaker of a child went down the side of it and my dogs paw)only weeks after purchase.

On a trip to see our daughter in Savannah, Ga. from Dayton, Ohio; we ran out of gasoline. The gas gauge indicated that we had a 1/4 tank, the dash low gas emblem did not come on and blink, and the overhead computer screen said we had 87 miles to go. This incident cost us $130.00. Then just 3 weeks later on the way to work the same thing happened, only this time my screen said that I had over a hundred miles left. Each time after I ran out the check engine light came on. I have been to the dealer several times about my engine light coming on and they did things like changing my gas cap. What recourse do I have? It seems that I got quick fixes until my warrenty ran out. Please reply with any suggestions.

I do garage door repair and this is my work truck. So far the repair has been covered under warranty, but how long will they continue fixing this at their own cost?

Is there anything you can do to help us? We've taken our truck to a number of places to have oil inserted in the rear end and front, it still squeaks.

I am also experiencing the same problem with my RAM truck that the owners of the Durango's are. In a nutshell, my oil pressure drops to zero, it goes to the shop, they say I'm not changing the oil(which I have documentation that I am) and I shell out a lot of money to have the same thing happen again and again. I bought my vehicle new in Feb.99 the first time this occured was on 04/12/01 they replaced oil seal, sending unit, and a switch. It cost me $563.01. Then the truck went back on 09/25/01 for the same problem. Dealer service said they were unable to confirm customer concern at this time and they changed the oil again.
