Just wanting to get some feedback from others that have had something similar happen .
My 2018 Laramie Longhorn with 12,000 miles on it got severely damaged by a Ram dealer when I took it in for a warranty repair.
Seems that the tech didn't put it in park but instead put it in reverse when he got out to align the arms of the lift , the drivers door was open and pulled the tech with it as it started moving out the bay of the shop. the tech was crushed between the door and the bay door support and then drug into the parking lot about 25 feet. the tech was injured but returned to work in 2 weeks.
THE DRIVERS DOOR WAS FOLDED ALL THE WAY TO THE FRONT FENDER .
The dealer had a body shop do the repair , replace and repaint door and fender and I would say they did a good job but can see a difference in the metallic paint , nuts with wrench marks , different color bolts.
I am not happy , The dealership owner is a hard person to deal with.
I told him he had 3 choices , replace the truck , pay me the loss value of the truck , of hear from my lawyers !!! So after a month of waiting , 3 phone calls from him , the last one was him saying I will replace your truck BUT , I'm going to find a new 2018 just like yours .
My truck is a Mega cab short bed dually so the chances of that happening are 0 .
I told him I would take a 2019 or a 2020 since the MSRP is almost the same as a 2018 .
