Hi everyone, I just got my first Ram. 2021 Ram 1500 Night Edition. I absolutely love this truck. I have been a Ford owner for a number of years but finally had enough. I do have an oil leak from the rear of the oil pan but I’m hoping they fix it this time, this will be try number 3 and hopefully the last. Other than that I love everything about it. I already added rear wheel well covers, tonneau cover, air bags and step bars.

Welcome to the forum....kinda crappy though that you've got an oil leak from a brand new truck....never mind that the dealer hasn't been able to fix in two attempts so far.

I took the inspection plate off and can see exactly where it is leaking from. I can’t understand how they can not fix it. Sucks!

Welcome to the Forum! Man that sucks, be sure to keep at it with them. Some dealerships need to be slapped around once in a while.

Maybe they just told you they fixed it! Is there any evidence that you can see that they did anything at all?

Might be time for another dealership, just saying. There are plenty in NJ.

So they said the rear main was replaced and they ran it for 4 hours. I’ve driven it for a few days so far and haven’t seen anything but I’m going to take inspection plate down again and look. Hopefully it’s fixed because I love the truck.
