    Climate Control Doesn't Get Warm

    I bought my truck in June, so it's just now finally getting cold enough to need heat. All summer I set my climate control to 72 degrees/auto and the temperature was almost always great. But now that I'm having some 40-50 degree days, the 72 degrees just isn't getting the interior warm enough...

    Hard to find 0W-40 oil

    I'm looking to do the first oil change on my 2022 2500 6.4L gas. The manual says to use 0W-40 oil. I've been to two local auto parts stores and they don't have it. Is this stuff usually difficult to find, or is it just a fluke?

    Keyless Entry Problems

    Has anybody else encountered problems with the keyless entry system? I have a 2022 2500 with the Uconnect 8. Everything worked without trouble for the first 2 months of ownership. Then last weekend, I went to get in my truck and the keyless entry wouldn't work. I tried the remote start, and...

    Loud Roaring Noise

    Sometimes my truck has a loud roaring noise that kicks in. The first time it happened was when I was towing a trailer up a long hill. I assume this is some sort of fan. But over the weekend, the noise was kicking in when the truck was cold and I was driving up a very minor little rise in the...

    Uconnect 8.4 tiny clock

    Is there any adjustment to the clock size on the uconnect 8.4? In my old truck I could choose a screen that showed a large clock. This one just has such a tiny clock at the top. And when I'm on the Android Auto screen, the clock is removed entirely.

    Is it possible to remove the cup holder liners?

    In my 2014, this rubber liner removed easily for cleaning. I tried and tried in my 2022, but can't figure out how to get it out.

    Does the UConnect 12-inch add any functions that the UConnect 8.4 doesn't have?

    Looking at the Ram website, it looks like the 12 inch and 8.4 inch both offer all the same functions: https://www.ramtrucks.com/uconnect.html#2020-ram-2500 Is there anything the 12-inch does, that the 8.4-inch doesn't do? Is the size the only difference?

    Has anybody successfully solved a parasitic battery draw problem?

    I have searched through here and found a few threads of people having trouble with parasitic draw, but I didn't find anybody who actually solved the problem. Maybe there is a common thing to look at that frequently goes bad? I have a 2014 1500 Quad Cab 2WD Hemi. My battery seems to be drawing...

    2014 Door Lock Actuator

    I have a 2014 Ram 1500 Quad Cab. The driver's door lock actuator has gone bad. I tried to replace it yesterday, but couldn't figure out how to remove the old one. Have any of you done this? The top part of the actuator clips on to a "floppy" black plastic piece that's attached to the...

    Poor Sound Quality with cell phone

    2014 Ram 1500 with the UConnect 5.1 system. Samsung Galaxy SIII phone, FWIW. When I use bluetooth to make handsfree calls, I can hear the other person just great. But I usually get complaints on their end that they can't hear me very well. Anybody have problems with the microphone on the...

    Low Speed Descent Control

    When I'm driving on residential streets (~20mph), and get to fairly steep downhills, the transmission downshifts really hard to slow me down. I have to really give a lot of gas to get it to shift back up. It's really awkward. Is there any way to adjust this or turn it off completely...

    Factory Warranty?

    A few weeks ago I purchased a brand new 2014 Ram. It has the 3 year/36,000 bumper to bumper warranty. Will I get some sort of warranty card from Ram? Will I get some sort of paperwork listing the limitations/requirements of the warranty?
