    My Journey Through RAM Customer Care

    Began about a month ago when, after a normal start, my heretofore reliable 2021 Rebel displayed a Service Shifter alert along with a CEL. Unable to electronically shift from Park. Disconnected battery for an hour, tried again, same result. Researched a bit here and other forums, discovered...

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    Any powerstep installers? Adapting amp research powerstep from 21 Ram 1500 to 2025 Ram 1500. Real truck gave me list of 3 parts needed, basically new electronics. Question (which they couldn't answer), will the pre-2025 OBD pass through (76405-01A) work on the 25?

    Console shifter bezel removal?

    Removing GT console shifter bezel on neighbors truck. Found 2 screws in front, 2 in back, removed shift knob/cover. Been prying on the bezel for 2 days, won't budge, afraid I'm going to break something. Anyone done this? Here's a pic from web showing the bezel.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Been running them for about 10Kmi now. Frustrated with OE Duratracs sliding around on wet roads. Quieter than the Dtracs and more stable in wet conditions. Added some white lettering accent.

    EcoDiesel “In-Use Emissions Testing Program“

    Letter looks legit, though very odd they wouldn't list your VIN. VIN would be the basis for populating the test sample. Did you followup with the 800#?

    Power running bords

    Can't help with RC, but I've had Amp Research power steps for a year+. Easy install and work perfect. Search on power boards/steps here will give you some more opinion.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Not a fan of the big black RAM tailgate letters, but didn't want to fuss with filling holes/paint. Found these vinyl overlays which I'm pretty happy with.

    2020+ ram 1500 ecodiesel

    28kmi, mostly freeway driving, 25-26mpg. HPFP replacement and smog software update. No other visits to dealer. Love this truck, quietest and most fuel efficient vehicle I've ever owned.

    My PPE transmission pan: the good, the bad, and the ugly.

    Interesting. Their website doesn't mention the pan gasket for either 1 or 2 quart version. Their install pdf says to save the original gasket.

    100% DPF, no regen...?

    No codes, no DTCs, everything but the DPF% PID seems normal.

    100% DPF, no regen...?

    Using Torque Pro to monitor DPF soot %, typically runs between 35-45%, mostly freeway driving. Couple weeks ago DPF% pegged at 100 but truck ran normally and SCR temp remained in normal, no active regen, ranges. Monday, took it out for a 100mi freeway trip. Pic1 shows Torque Pro readings...

    305/45/22 Michelin Defender LTX 2 - some photos and my review

    After sliding around on the roads during last years pretty wet winter for San Diego, I dumped the Wranglers for the stock size LTX MS2s. Ran the MS2s on my previous Tundra and was very happy with them. Had 45K on the MS2s when I sold the Tundra and they had a lot of tread remaining. For the...

    Stellantis recalls 1.5M Ram trucks to fix software bug that can disable stability control

    Can you elaborate on "failed"? Symptoms/messages? Not starting, not shifting, seems odd these would be related to the ABS software recall...

    Horrible First Impressions - Huge Fail

    OP, can you elaborate on "delivered". You mentioned "a dealer" so I'm assuming that dealer wasn't involved in the purchase? Internet purchase? Factory order? What inspection procedure was used? Given the issues you identified, your frustration is understandable. Having said that, one...
