    Dead battery

    Thank you for passing that on. It looks like this may not be applicable to my truck since this TSB is intended for trucks built on or before April 15, 2019; but, there's definitely some unwanted rumbling going on when i'm coasting in ECO mode. Of course, when I brought it in, the Tech...

    Great! Thank you for your response. When did the fix for TSB come out?

    Loud Rumbling/Revving Noise

    I brought my truck in for its first service in June of '21 and complained about the rumbling sound at low rpms and while in eco mode. The technician said it's a known issue and said something about the exhaust valves aren't closing properly; but, there should be a TSB out to fix it and that it...

    Dead battery

    I have also noticed the rumbling while in eco mode, and it's becoming more and more annoying. I had the technicians at the dealership look into it when I brought my truck in for 1st service, and they said it was a known issue (but that a TSB for reprogramming would fix it). Has anyone else...

    Truck Weight..For information only

    What model & size Airstream do you have? I'm hoping to get one...just researching right now. They seem to be much lighter than other travel trailers. Also, what is your rear axle ratio, do you have the 3.92? I read where you want to keep a 20% cushion under your maximum tow capacity for a...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Bed step OEM 82215289AG. Installed it in my carport on Christmas Day. A must have for an old man with bad knees... Pretty easy install even for someone that sits behind a desk all day....don’t pay a dealership $200+! Just needed a fastener tool to pry the harness fasteners loose, a torque...

    What color did we pick.

    Would’ve loved the brown; but, the color picked me...ended up with bright white...bought from remaining pool of ‘20’s. Awesome looking truck regardless of color.

    What to use to clean dash in a leather upholstered truck?

    Great insight! If the dealership doesn’t have someone that has expertise in this, I’ll try to find someone that does. If all else fails. I’ll give it a whirl. Are you better off injecting the contact cement in multiple spots (Each of my 2 areas on each side of the center console is...

    What to use to clean dash in a leather upholstered truck?

    Glad to hear it’s not a widespread problem. I guess these are the risks you take when you buy 1st year of new generation...always some little nuance. I love this truck though! It rides great.

    What to use to clean dash in a leather upholstered truck?

    Thanks for sharing your opinion. That makes sense. The dealer said the truck is covered from bumper to bumper the first 90 days; so, I guess I’ll see what they can do about it. I certainly don’t want to get into the situation where the entire dash is replaced with the same problem.

    Trade in program for Etorque that’s what needs to happen!

    I had the same experience with the EcoBoost...I ditched it and moved on (temporarily to a Genesis...fun to drive but tough to get in and out of). I missed having a truck and set my sights on a Ram 1500. I avoided the eTorque; but, I did end up with a 12” screen...I didn’t read up on that...

    What to use to clean dash in a leather upholstered truck?

    I just purchased a certified pre-owned Longhorn where this has happened (started to delaminate in 2 convex sections of the dash). I’m going to see what the dealer will do, first, to fix it; but, if they balk, I’m wondering if more adhesive can be injected using a fine needle. Have you run into...
