22 1500 Rebel- every once in a while after starting truck the infotainment screen doesn’t come on- happens every few months. After turning engine off and restarting it comes back on. Dealership said they can’t troubleshoot it unless it happens when they check it out- chance is very low that will happen. Worried it will go out permanently when my warranty is out in a couple months

Will everything be working fine & then it just shuts off ?
Or does it do something else ? Like change radio stations, or something else ?

Each time that you go to the dealership, report that it has happened again, write it on the paper that the Service Writer gives you when you show up & explain what you have seen it do.
That way, when they write up the invoice, they have to note it on the Work Sheet. They hold a copy of what you wrote & they keep a copy in their files.

Once that it is On File, that gives you some POWER, once IF & When it happens again.

This is up to you OF Course, BUT you can get a MOPAR Extended Warranty.
IT is not quite as good as the Original Mopar Bumper to Bumper Warranty, but i believe buying it is definitely worth it.

I suggest that you do NOT buy it from your local dealership.
I DO suggest that you at least go Online & compare 2 dealerships that are online.

The first place is an Official Vendor here on this Ramforum

( as you can see, your local dealership pads their prices )

Another company to do a price check with, also you will see the Exact same Mopar warranty, at near the same price.

the dealership's name is

Zeigler Auto Group​

they go by this name for Mopar Warranties

I went with Zeigler, but at that time,i had Not heard about Granger

Good Luck with which ever decision you choose
Happy New Year !

When starting the truck the infotainment screen doesn’t turn on at all but radio is on-screen black. When I turn the vehicle off and restart it, the screen comes on like normal. It’s weird and wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I was at dealer today for that ABS recall and asked service advisor if he had dealt with this at all and he said no.

My 2020 Laramie has just started doing this. Start the truck, screen is black, restart and all works fine. Also when the screen is on, it will flicker on and off for minutes at a time. All this is random. Does your screen flicker as well?

measuring from one corner to the opposite corner
what is the size of your screen
3" , 5" , 8.4" , or the monster 12" screen
the 2 larger screens have the Navigation Option

Different manufacturers make most of them

RAM official video, to me is just strange

other owners complaints
