    Smell of burning rubber: 2019 1500 RAM

    Pretty common for the 5.7s to smell like burning oil for the first few months. I thought the same thing when I brought mine home and could smell it for a few weeks, so I did some research on it. Mine went away after a bit as was stated it would on the forums. Mine is also a 2018 but same...

    Changed battery now won't turn over!

    Sounds to me like a starter. The only sign was that it was starting slow. Brought it in and finally died with a dead short in the shop. They had to push it to one of the bays. Luck on the timing. Good luck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Roof leak covered under 3/36 warranty?

    Could it be a seam in where the body panels come together? Had that happen in my wife’s car, but that car was almost 10 years old when that occurred. Took them a while to find it. They had the headliner out and had to run the hose for 30min or more before it really started coming in. They...

    Rattle felt in pedals

    I have a similar issue and mine is the brake pedal. There is a lot of play in it. Next time I have the truck in I will have them look at it. If you have place where you know it happens all the time try to put your toes under the brake pedal and pull back to hold it place while you go over the...

    Started a case with RAM today - lemon law??

    I can’t seem to find the poll. Maybe you can’t see it on Tapatalk? Any how I have a 2018 with cloth seats and my son had the passengers heated seat on earlier this week because the AC was blasting in his face and it worked as advertised. Didn’t shut off, just stayed on high. I had posted...

    Strange clunking sound coming from steering rack area when hitting pothole.

    Looked under the dash and the weight seems to be fine but the brake pedal has a lot of slop in it. When hit from the side there is a fair bit of movement and a clunk to go along with. Will see tomorrow if I get the clunking noise with the foot on the brake. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Strange clunking sound coming from steering rack area when hitting pothole.

    Mine sounds like it is behind the dash. Sounds too heavy to be a loose cable or connector. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Strange clunking sound coming from steering rack area when hitting pothole.

    I have a 2018 with the same issue. I thought I read somewhere on these forums that some had issues with a loose joint in the steering column causing a clunking noise on more aggressive bumps. Was going to have them look at it the next time I have it in the shop. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Started a case with RAM today - lemon law??

    I have 2018 Bighorn and the heated seats work as they are supposed to. I have the premium cloth seats that do not have a cooling option. No modifications have been made to the truck with the exception of a shorty antenna and a line-x bed-liner. Not sure this helps but is a data point if it...

    Tailgate keylock... if by design or error during the build

    My bad on that, I was wrong. I could have sworn that was an option when I was setting everything up on the truck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tailgate keylock... if by design or error during the build

    There is a setting in the controls to lock and and unlock the tailgate with the remote. Just change the setting. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2017 RAM 1500 Shifted Out of Park. This is my story.

    Wonder if it's a removal of the seat belt and opening the door. I am able to open the door and backup. Once I forgot put the thing in park because i was jumping out to grab something and just threw the emergency brake on. When I got back in the truck it was still in drive but it was flashing...

    Uconnect 8.4 constantly restarting issue

    I have a 2018 with the 8.4 without nav and I don't have the issue. Probably just jinxed it though. Maybe it's the ones with Nav?
