Ram parts always on back order

[Docwagon1776]

you basically said in your earlier posts that they could make excess spare parts but wont. sounds exactly like conspiracy to create parts shortage. your words not mine sir

I can give you the facts, none of which you've disputed, but I can't give you understanding.

How can you sell a nearly $110,000 truck and then continuously not have parts to service your vehicles being sold?

I have strong reason to believe that only the parts needed for warranty repair are unavailable to the dealers. My truck is patently waiting for emission-related parts to complete a warranty repair. It has been waiting for better than two months. If I Google the part numbers, inventory appears on several sites, including Amazon and eBay. The 2026 RV traveling season has been canceled, as have other tasks the truck was purchased to perform. I'm madder than a wet hen!

That was similar to my experience. The "out of stock everywhere" part was in stock at several dealerships. The CEO's office got one shipped to the dealership after I made enough noise. At least my part was something out of production for current builds, I'd have been more vocal and less patient had it been a current build part.

It’s sounding like Stellantis’ dealer parts distribution and tracking system is basically SNAFU.

conspiracy
/kənˈspirəsē/
A conspiracy is a secret agreement

There's no secret and no conspiracy.

If 2 or more people discuss doing something, decide to do something, or even if they actually do something, it still doesn't meet the definition of conspiracy without that "secret" part being present. Hence, not a conspiracy.

They just do it right out in the open and don't give a flying **** if you know it or not. Why should they, because observational evidence suggests that people are ******** and will buy their overpriced garbage anyway. They have no good reason whatsoever to change their behavior.
