2022 RAM 3500 LongBox Laramie

[slokker]

Hi All:

Wanted to introduce myself. Just purchased a 2022 RAM 3500 Laramie LongBox with less than 10000 miles. Seems this beauty was a dealership owner truck. Love the truck so far with a 50 gallon fuel tank and airbags for towing. I do lots of that. The Aisinn Transmission issue was already taken care of and I have not seen any issues.

I am wondering have any of you received a Satelite Hardware Error for Sirius XM. This seems to be an intermittent problem and goes away if I keep the truck out of the hot Texas sun. I had one dealership take care of the problem by doing a software download that seemed to fix it. Then it came back. When the truck is garaged it totally goes away, leave it in the sun and it comes back. Anyone else on this forum have this problem and any suggestions?

High heat wreaks havoc with electronics. I've noticed a couple of times that I've had intermittent weird occurrences with the radio and other stuff when the heat outside was in the low 90's and the temps inside were hotter than Hades.

I would have to agree with this. When the heat outside hits over 90, I generally have radio/Android Auto issues. Once the truck cools down, it seems like everything goes back to normal. I recall someone stating that they actually pulled the dash apart and put in fans behind it to keep it cooler. Was thinking about trying that too.

Leave the AC on high and remote start it before you get in, I usually notice that when it gets cooled down everything seems to work better.
