Purchased the new Tungsten this past spring and can't even begin to say how disappointed we are in the truck. The entire truck is cover in orange peel. Granted we did see it before we purchased, but the other half wanted the truck anyway. Can't fault anything on the interior, other than the fact, in my opinion, maybe too many types of finishes. Carbon fiber, next to chrome, next to textured plastic.!

One of my biggest complaints, two parts were ordered for the truck due to them being defective from the factory. The power mirror switch assembly and a steering wheel trim piece. We just found out that Ram cancelled the order for these parts, reason given, they need the parts to build new trucks. WTH...does Ram not want to take care of its current customers? The dealership was able to push through order the mirror switch, however the steering wheel trim pice can't be ordered until Dec 2026...16 months away...he'll at this point, we won't even have the truck by then! This is our 1st Ram and probably our last!

We love our Longhorn Limited. Beautiful paint and solid interior.
You must have gotten one that was built right before a three-day weekend.
Fords, GMs, and Toyotas all have their problems too.
Luck of the draw anymore, although I wouldn't have excepted one with known paint issues. You know that's going to bug you as time goes on.
Good luck with your travels.

That is correct.

If you want to fight it, work your way up the chain. It will likely be useless until you get to Executive Customer Care (email Tim Kuniskis and whoever his current assistant is, it'll be listed on Stellantis' website) and you'll get assigned to ECC.

That's what it finally took for me to get parts for a warranty claim in a 4 month ordeal.

My ‘26 Tungsten is also orange peeled. Disappointing to say the least.

If people saw that the truck was orange peeled why the heck would you buy it? No way would I let my wife convince me to purchase something so obviously defective as to the paint or willingly buy it if it was my choice! Go to another dealer to find one without defective paint.
