Losing parts - Funny but sad..

[JaymanUS]

This is my first Ram.. 2018 Harvest Edition 5.7Hemi.. Driving back from Austin this weekend the wheel center cap flew off on the highway.. Factory 20" black rims. Anyone else have this problem? I'm gonna see if dealer will replace under warranty. Truck only has 10k miles.

So, in 10K you never had the wheels rotated?

I bought it at 9500 miles as a "new" dealer loaner truck. Service records show it being done at dealer. Just thought it was odd.. Never had a truck lose a wheel cap in 25 years.

I figure your chances are about 50-50.

It must have been broke... cuz you have to push them thru the wheel to remove them so it's losing one isn't an easy thing to do unless they are broke.

So. My dealer is taking care of while it's in getting one of the factory fender flares replaced.. So all good!! They've actually been very helpful so far.

When I work on vehicles I spend half my time looking for the part or tool I need to do the job.

So I ended up having to pay the $15. Reason - tech said they only come out because people tend to steel them.. However, there were no marks or finger prints on my wheel.. But new problems now in new thread about my defective fender flair replacement... UHG!
