    Now I May Need a Second FOB

    Sitting in the house tonight wondering who in the world has an alarm randomly going off. It's loud and close, almost sounds like my truck. Finally I look out the window and see my truck's lights flashing. WTH. I look for the fob on the counter where I always put it but it's not there. I start...

    Running Board Replacement Pad

    I have a Laramie crew cab with OEM RAM, chrome, one piece 7' running boards. The black plastic non-slip insert along the top that protects the chrome has cracked and I want to replace it. I have looked at a Ram parts website for the replacement part with my vin. Their website only shows two...

    Led Turn Signal Lens on Power Mirror

    Today I noticed the turn signal lens had fallen off the bottom of the right side mirror. It looks like I have to buy the whole turn signal housing. Anyone here have experience replacing the turn signal assembly? I looked it over today and not much of a way to pull the old lens out and get the...

    8.4 radio screen freezing on startup

    2013 1500 with 8.4 Uconnect radio. I performed the radio software update a few months ago. The message that an update was needed kept popping up so I allowed the update. It took about 45 minutes. Since then I have had an issue with the radio screen freezing on the startup screen when the...

    Uconnect Update Notice

    Today I began getting a notice on the radio screen saying that new software is ready for my Uconnect system. I will have to leave the ignition on for 15 - 20 minutes and then allow the update to continue for another 60 - 70 minutes. The back up camera, radio, 9-1-1 and several driving assistance...

    Blank Screen Cause Resolved

    I have learned what caused my 10.4" screen to go blank. The first time that it happened, the radio worked fine but the screen was blank. I thought that I really had a problem that might get expensive to repair. It corrected itself latter that day but I did not know what caused the issue. The...

    Dodge or RAM ?

    Does it bother any one here when people call your 4th gen Ram a Dodge? I am not trying to be too technical, but I noticed that an employee at our company listed a recent long term lease as a 2016 Dodge Ramcharger. She thought all trucks are either Ford, Chevy or Dodge ramchargers. The truck is a...

    Front Wheels Slid, Trans Went Into Neutral

    Has anyone here experienced this issue before? I was slowing from about 35 mph and the front wheels hit a wet painted line across my lane. I'm pretty sure the front brakes locked the front wheels for just an instant. That is not uncommon for a wheel to slide a bit when crossing a wet strip of...

    Ram or Dodge on title

    I have noticed on all of the new Ram trucks purchased for the fleet last year, they are still titled and described as "2016 Dodge Ramcharger". Why is Dodge still on the title if Dodge stopped building trucks in 2010 and rolled out the Ram logo? And a Ramcharger hasn't been built in many years.

    Ram Box and Fifth Wheel

    I have a 2013 1500 with ram boxes. Has any one installed a fifth wheel assembly in the bed of a truck that has the rambox option? I really hate to loose the bed space with a fifth wheel hitch, but they tow so much better than the bumper pull campers. If you have seen a short bed 1500 with...

    HID projector headlight upgrade

    I've noticed the factory headlights on my 2013 Laramie are yellow and not as bright as the hids on my other cars. Is there an upgrade for the factory hid bulbs in the projector lights?

    led turn signal message

    About once a week I get a message on the display that says the left rear turn signal is out. Happens even when I'm not trying to use the turn signal but if I check it, the turn signal does flash quickly. That only lasts for a few seconds and then it starts working normal. I checked the...

    Heated mirrors with discoloration

    I've noticed the power, heated mirror on the drivers side has a small bronze colored spot on the bottom of the glass. I don't think the heating element is working now. Any one replace just the glass? What is causing the bronze discoloration on the glass?

    Two red symbols flash after startup

    I have two red symbols that flash right after each start up. One is a steering wheel with exclamation symbol and the other is a red temp symbol. They flash 3 or 4 times then go away. They show up in the bottom left side of the dash cluster. I am having no issues with steering or engine/trans...

    rainsensor not connected to windsheild

    Bought a 2013 Ram a few weeks ago. finally got time to find the rattle in the rear view mirror. I pulled the covers off the inside rear view mirror and found a round module that turned to be the rainsensor. It is not connected to the windshield that is why it was rattling around. I did notice...

    4th gen Ram owner

    I'm new to the Ram forum. Bought a 2013 last week. I'm learning a lot about these trucks. Been a fleet mechanic for over 30 years with mostly Ford trucks and a past loyal GM owner. I will have a lot of questions, but I know to "search" first.
