    4WD Slips out under load

    I brought the truck back in today and got the call this afternoon that they ordered a new transfer case. Hopefully this one lasts longer and if not hopefully it goes before warranty is up lol jk. Now that I know how it operates I'll definitely be a little more cautious about abuse on it :(

    4WD Slips out under load

    The over temp warning came on and that was all she wrote. At that point I gave in aND called for a tow. Coincidentally my friend came and pulled me out with my previous truck I sold him lol.

    4WD Slips out under load

    I was rocking to get out. I'm not going to lie and say I was being super easy on it but also I wasn't being an idiot. It's a vehicle I'm paying for for 5 years so I would prefer not to drive the snot out of it. I checked the fluid today in the transfer case and it's pure black and smells...

    4WD Slips out under load

    These are the things I wish I researched before buying the truck 2 years ago. It's unfortunate as i love everything else about the truck. After reading these threads I find it hilarious that the dealer tells me they have never seen such a thing

    4WD Slips out under load

    Thanks for the response. Unfortunately this may be my only option. They basically called me a liar and gave me a lesson on engaging my "on demand" 4 wheel drive lol. They said they would need a code to farther diagnose the problem

    4WD Slips out under load

    First off i'll start by saying hi as this is my first post on the forum. My truck is a 2015 ram 1500 4x4 sport with 8 speed transmission. Last winter i got stuck in heavy snow and in the process of trying to get out i lost 4wd. I was getting a message on the dash saying 4wd overheated...
