Waiting on parts - anyone else have this issue?

[mikeru]

My latest issue wasn't with parts availability, it was with the USPS. I ordered an oil filler cap from BAM Wholesaleparts on June 2nd. It shipped on June 4th via USPS. I just received it yesterday. Three weeks is a little ridiculous. This isn't Canada Post . Anyway it's good to be driving around with the proper oil cap instead of a giant cork.

It is ridiculous. And it’s not just RAM. Consumer protection groups should do something useful for a change and tear into manufacturers about this.

And so how would "tear into manufacturers" make the situation any better? Are the consumer protection groups (whoever they are) going to staff the factory? Staff the subcontractors factory? Drive the truck? Unload the ship?

i am surprised that there is a Steel Supply Shortage.
HEMI engine Blocks are machined in Mexico.
The Cast Iron comes from either Brazil or Australia.

We buy very little RAW Steel from the oriental countries

after replacing the accelerator pedal sending unit, the problem persists. its outside of the expertise of my local dealer. I've tried to elevate it to Ram last week. i have a case number but no response as of yet.
