I have a 2019 RAM Tradesman- 25k miles and I sometimes "hear' a vibration that appears to be in the rear. I do not feel it in the suspension or the steering wheel. It usually happens as I am cruising down the road. It "sounds" like as if I am riding over the cutouts that are on the breakdown lane "drunk bumps" is what I call them.
Am I losing my mind??

Hello John, I have a 2020, 2500 Bighorn with the Cummings engine at 5300 miles now and having that same issue but mine can be heard and felt through the console area? I have been to two different dealerships (the one where I bought it and another for second opinion) and they are telling me this is normal? I disagree and believe there is some type of drivetrain issue? I was hoping to find an answer here on the forum? Thanks

Sounds like the drive train needs looked at. Dealer visit for sure.

Could also be a tire with a broken belt. I have had one or two over the years, not as noticeable as a flat tire and did make a weird vibration. You could have checked, pretty cheap thing to look at and if nothing eles checks off a possibility. Good luck.

Do you have air suspension?

I am not that savvy with the suspension question but I believe this goes back to noise cancellation issue. There was a TSB on this and others have posted similar concerns.
