I have about 500 mi on my 2011 3500. car has a clicking sound coming from the wheel well or engine. this happens when turning left or right at low speed, hitting a bump at low speed or when putting car in reverse.

the sound was day one from the dealer and i assumed it is normal as this is a 4x4. But now I am wondering. I had not had any incidents with the vehicle. Car had over a 80 mi when sold to me. I thought it was a bit high for a new car but was explained that they brought the car from another dealer. Any thoughts? anyone?

First off welcome to Ram Forum. I do not have a heavy duty so my front end is different, but I would think that it should not be making noises like that. I would have it looked at.

The mileage and them getting it from another dealer sounds believable. My truck had 70 some miles on it when i test drove it.

There shouldn't be any clicking. I can't tell you what it is, but I would suggest bringing it in.

Welcome to the forum. Hope they can figure out what is causing the noise.
My truck also had 100 miles on it when I bought it, as the dealership I bought it from actually found it at another dealership and it was driven from there up to me.
