    AGM VS OEM VS LEAD CELL

    With these "new" computer driven vehicles I have found the AGMs are far superior to the older Battery's.. if you are a COSCO member the have really good prices on INTERSTATE AGMs..

    Should I change my trans fluid?

    ZF recommends change a 60K, Pan will need to be replaced, MAKE sure and use MOPAR or ZF fluid only.. Amazon has both the factory pan and the Dorman replacement, either work quite well. Amazon also has the fluid. It's not that big a job to do if you have the tools. If you are unsure check the...

    FCA emissions recall 67A

    Just a "Heads Up" My understanding is that in California if you do not have proof of the recall you will not be able to register your truck. You will need to submit proof of the recall with your registration renewal.

    2019 RAM 2500 what is best replacement battery?

    Interstate AGM seems to be the overall best choice for these trucks. If you are a COSCO member the price is reasonable.

    Drag link recall performed without notice - now steering wheel misaligned!

    I really thought that this "repair" was long gone, they have been replacing the drag links now for several years and for a dealership to perform the old original "weld and wait" is ridicules. I suggest you first contact RAM CARES and get a new drag link coming, then call the Service Manager at...

    Any opinions on brake rotors appeciated

    I suggest PowerStop, you can get them on Amazon with quick delivery depending on your location and for a decent price. You will be glad you waited a day or so,, And DO the pads at the same time, half assed brake work can only lead to disaster ..

    Brake rotors (Power Stop)

    I have found that Power Stop brakes, when installed correctly and the break in instructions are followed, work extremely well.. The last set I installed was on my 2014 Durango with 100k miles on it. The factory rotors were a bit warped causing a mild shudder when lightly applied after they were...

    Brand new 2023 Limited catastrophic transmission failure at 1200 miles

    I for one would never accept a "rebuild" in a 1500 mile truck and you stated that they also replaced the transfer case.. wonder why? I would contact Stalanses customer service, not RAM Cares, and explain the situation. If they can't or wont help my next call would be to a reputable attorney...

    intermittent rear drivers brake smoking

    As with most of the rest of the responders here,, Check your rubber (Flex) brake lines. You won't be able to see the blockage externally, you will need to remove it. If you are in a "BAD" weather area just replace it with a new one,, It's a cheap part. Also if you drive in a lot of snow and ice...

    Pay for uconnect and navigation after trial period. Unreal

    Mecedes Benz tried that with me, said I needed to pay an annual fee for navigation and several other functions, made a big deal out of it..So I called them and said "Ok why am I paying for features that I paid for when I bought this $90K car? " Well after some serious debate and speaking with a...

    36500 miles on ram rebel and water pump is leaking wtd

    If it's a 5.7 they replaced mine at about 60K under warranty. Supposedly there was a service bullion out on this issue.. Not sure what years were covered but I would contact your dealer or RAM cares and see what they say..

    Ram 1500 Brake pads

    I am going to have to jump on the wagon here! I have found that the Power Stop brakes work extremely well and made a totally great difference in the braking capabilities of my trucks and Durangos. Replace the pads and rotors together and follow their break-in recommendations. Also if your truck...

    Oil Weight

    Ok, just my 2 cents worth.. If the manufacturer specifies a particular grade of oil, meeting very specific values I would probably heed their recommendations. They didn't just pull this out of their butts. They most certainly tested countless types, weights and combinations before coming up with...

    Defects/ Damage in Tires Used at FCA Ram Stellantis Mexico Assemby Plant

    Just my 2 cents but why, when we are spending 60-100 K for an American truck are we getting Chinese tires? Chinese tires are known to be junk but the manufactures want cheap so they pass it down to us the consumers. My recommendation, and again mine, would be just plan on replacing the tires and...

    Premature rotor problem

    Just my 2 cents worth,, I replaced my pads and rotors with Power Stop ceramic pads and the results were amazing. 108K miles and was getting warped rotor shudder. Replaced and now it stops better than ever and no more "Shudder" Not all that expensive and easy to do.

    Wheel hub replacement, what else should I change while there.

    Ok, my 2 cents worth. Ram/Dodge does not manufacture bearings, they are outsourced from the cheapest vendor they can find. So OEM in this case means nothing. I have used TIMKIN bearings for years, they last for ever, can be found for a reasonable price and they are of the highest quality.

    Ram recalls and terrible customer service

    So I have a suggestion for you,, Call the Califonia DMV, they have an 800 number and in my experence they are not all that hard to deal with when you have a valid reason to call. (that should be self explanitory) The solenoids are not a safety or emissions related,and I would think that they...
