2016 3500 2WD Track Bar
Hey guys. I have a bushing squeezing out on my front track bar, and it's causing undesirable steering and ride feel. The track bar is back ordered at my local dealership (weeks) and I am having a hard time finding the part number to try and locate one online. I can easily find the part number...- Nine Four

Sorry I have not posted an update in a while. I have found this situation to be "all consuming" and I'm trying to keep a balance between it and daily life. It's been difficult. Thursday of last week, at the request of the purchasing dealership, I drove to the dealership to work with them on a...- Nine Four

Yes, you are correct. There are physical characteristics that I have found, which I believe I called "red flags" in earlier posts, that I believe corroborate with the hour discrepancy, to prove the truck has odometer has been altered. As for wear on the interior, my research has shown that had...- Nine Four

Quick update. I followed up with the Ram dealer that initiated a trouble ticket with Mopar, concerning the ability to read hours through the Mopar software. The dealership informed me that Mopar said that they can not look at the hours on their software, and further more, it is not possible to...- Nine Four

The visit to the dealership Wednesday morning wound up being pretty frustrating. This dealership, like the one I went to on Tuesday, was unable to find the hours through their OE scanner. I was allowed to go back with the technician and watch as he looked at the data. I can say that he spent a...- Nine Four

I have no reason to believe that the purchasing dealer has any involvement in this potential mileage issue. They have provided, what I currently believe to be, honest communication. They lead me to believe they have a genuine concern for my needs and the position I am in. I have also been very...- Nine Four

I was able to take the truck to a dealership in a neighboring town, where the Assistant Service Manager seemed to understand what was going on and offered to put the scanner on the truck. He said that he was able to look at the cluster mileage and the PCM mileage and verified that they do...- Nine Four

Yes, I was looking at the trailer settings, to set them for a trailer that I planned to tow, and saw that "Trailer 1" was selected and had the trip mileage shown in the picture. I'll be happy to detail the items that were red flags to me, but I would prefer to wait until I confirm one way or...- Nine Four

Thank you to everyone who has commented. I initially posted as kind of a self check, to make sure I was not overthinking this or missing something. Unfortunately, the red flags keep flying. If you have had an experience like this and have had it resolved satisfactorily, I would love to have...- Nine Four

I would be happy to talk to someone privately about my VIN, but at this point I'm not sure if I should/want to put it on a social site. I think the next step is to have my local Ram dealer put their scanner on it and compare the mileage and hours on the ECU with what's on the cluster. I guess...- Nine Four

The Carfax does not give any concrete evidence by looking at mileage. However, there are an eerily few number of reports on it.- Nine Four

60 and 1130 on the cluster. However, I do have an Autel Scanner (better than just a code reader) and according to the data, the hours it listed were about 1200 on idle and around 6000 on drive. I was trying to multitask at the time and will need to double check those numbers to be 100% certain.- Nine Four

Hello everyone. First time post, as well as first time Ram owner. I recently purchased a 2016 3500 with the Cummins in it. There have been a couple of red flags this week, that give me concern about the odometer mileage being accurate. Any thoughts on the mileages in the picture? The truck was...- Nine Four
