    2016 Air suspension 70K miles clunking noise

    Yes-sold it, started to have too many issues at 86k and decided to trade her in with full warranty in place. FCA warranty and dealer repairs were getting too difficult and unscrupulous. Last issue was idiot light (check engine) and dealer told me it would take 3 weeks before they could look at...

    Tire Pressure 2021 Ram 1500 Laramie With Bridgestone Dueler H/L 275/55R20?

    Very odd, I had same. I guess the dealers must be using the old pressure as well or don't even bother to change at delivery. I'm now at 36 Cold! Thanks All!

    Tire Pressure 2021 Ram 1500 Laramie With Bridgestone Dueler H/L 275/55R20?

    Traded in my 2016 Laramie for a 2021 Laramie. Used to run my 2016 at 39lbs per OEM recs. I see the recommended pressure is now 36lbs. When I picked it up from dealer the tires were all set at 40lbs or higher and have not changed them yet. What are others inflating to with my same setup?

    Maybe time to sell?

    Great attitude Ed F and may God be with you! Have been down in dumps lately about trivial nonsense and your post was a wakeup call to me to be happy and not sweat the small stuff like what to do with my ageing Ram....

    80K miles and wondering what to do

    Anyone have any experience with Zeigler Auto Group Factory Backed plans for Mopar Max Care extended warranty? Zeigler claims that they sell below Mopar Max Care plan below the Mopar direct plan because they are the largest Mopar volume dealer? Seems too good to be true, not sure how this is...

    80K miles and wondering what to do

    Just got my Mopar Max Care quote at 82K Miles/<1yr remain on existing plan (85K, 2 yrs $100 deduct). The new plan would cost $4,760 (with a $200 deductible for 4 years/60K miles. Looking at new replacement vehicles and finding prices have gone insane with limited availability. Leaning toward...

    80K miles and wondering what to do

    The truck meets all of my needs and still enjoy it. Appreciate comments - it's really helpful to bounce ideas in this forum and get different opinions. Leaning towards keeping as there is nothing IMO significantly improved worth looking at and I can't ever see myself owning an electric truck.

    80K miles and wondering what to do

    Yes I did, Mopar said I had to wait until I got to within 1K miles before they would even quote me an extension but maybe that has changed. I did look at my existing Max care plan (which I did not before) and it seems that the following is covered so will probably bring it in to dealer for a...

    80K miles and wondering what to do

    Own outright a 2106 1500 Laramie Hemi, air ride 4X4. It has had its share of minor typical problems: manifold bolts replaced, complicated leaky sunroof, broken wheel bearings, rear camera failure and a bunch of other relatively minor issues thankfully most covered by FCA warranty. Only other...

    2016 Air suspension 70K miles clunking noise

    I have a 2016 Laramie with air suspension. Recently noticed the ride is becoming more clunky less smooth in front end when hitting bigger bumps/potholes on our pathetic NJ roads. Question: Does air suspension need periodic service/reinflation to smooth out ride? Do struts/(shocks?) have a...

    Parking brake light won’t turn off

    Likewise +1 - I have a 2016 with just under 70k miles. Since 25k miles it has been a laundry list of relativity minor issues for me. Overall it is hard to complain about the design of the truck in general but it is certainly a chore to deal with all the quality related issues that pop up and...

    Parking brake light won’t turn off

    After a month of back and forth with dealer and FCA, FCA not covering warranty of faulty parking brake. Needless to say I'm disappointed as all prior warranty claims were covered 100% (less $100 deductible) and absurd to think I would intentionally drive with parking brake engaged. Decided...

    Parking brake light won’t turn off

    Just heard back from FCA - so far they are declining to cover parking brake repair under my Mopar Vehicle Protection warranty. I requested a supervisor to further review case which is pending. This is illogical as they are claiming I intentionally drove with parking brake engaged? Seriously...

    Parking brake light won’t turn off

    As an engineer/pilot etc. it seems to me that this is an obvious engineering flaw and another clear candidate for a recall. Simple solution- parking brake engaged parking light should be on and driver alerted somehow it’s engaged...... Ram Cares?

    Parking brake light won’t turn off

    Took my truck into dealer for warranty replacement of my backup camera (covered no problem). I pointed out to dealer new problem of parking brake being engaged with no indication of brake the light being on. There were several instances that the parking brake was partially engaged and no...

    Got my new neck rests

    Are these flat or do they have a forward lean like the stock/OEM units? I wish I could (tried unsuccessfully) to move the rears to the front in my 2016. The forward lean is uncomfortable for me.

    Backup camera not working

    I had the green screen - took apart tailgate and cleaned & reattached the wiring harness to the camera and that fixed that issue last summer. That was a pretty easy fix. Seems that harness might have detached somehow. However, now my camera is foggy/cloudy and looks filled with condensation...

    To trade-in or not to trade-in?

    Now that my truck was repaired (broken manifold bolts & wheel bearings) all covered under my Mopar extended plan, I've decided to keep the truck and not trade in. I looked at the new models and they seem a bit too complicated for my taste, especially the ipad/tesla screen in cabin and the...

    To trade-in or not to trade-in?

    In my case I got 0% financing and now own truck outright. Generally agree financing or leasing a vehicle is throwing money away. However, Ram offered 0% financing and that was hard to pass up. So, I took truck in today for diagnosis. As suspected, ticking issues confirmed with broken manifold...

    To trade-in or not to trade-in?

    Do you find the telescoping wheel to be helpful? I've never been able to find a comfortable driving position in my 16 because my seat is all the way back and find I'm reaching forward to hold the wheel. Did not bother me at first but now find on long trips it does.

    Have not been to dealer yet. First want to make sure the options I want exist.

    To trade-in or not to trade-in?

    I own a 2016 Laramie (Hemi, Air Suspension, crew cab, paid off ) with 65K miles. Generally love the truck but have had lots of little things go wrong (sunroof leak, driver window clips fail, tailgate fall open recalls etc.) and all have thankfully been covered under regular warranty. I have...
