    Questions on used 2019

    I have a 2019 limited and here's what I would look for. Check the ac if you can, most from that year did not blow cold enough but there are a couple easy fixes if you search this site. Also listen for manifold leaks, a common problem. I recently replaced my passenger side under extended Mopar...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I ordered my truck from Koons in DC. and paid the same non refundable deposit. I think it's entirely fair for a dealer to require a deposit. Weeds out the non serious buyers and protects the dealer from having a rash of cancellations if the economy nose dives. I will ask Mark and Koons for a...

    Ongoing abnormal treadwear issue?

    I have been battling outside edge wear since new. Brand doesn't make a difference, it's the truck. As far as 'spec alignment' goes, they are very broad these days. So a truck can be in spec but the tires may still wear unevenly. I asked my shop to align closer to the inside edge of the spec...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Bought my Ram from Koons and my extended warranty from Zeigler. Recently took it into my local dealer (Atlanta market) for cracked exhaust manifold and leather dash issue. The exhaust was fixed in a few days and they asked Ram for help on the dash, which they agreed to. Never came up where I...

    Need Advice: Battery Issues with My 2019 RAM 1500

    Replace it with an H8. You got 5 years which is about 2 years more than anyone else on here. Not worth the hassle and uncertainty to try to stretch it.

    Not sure but it does look a little different from the 5 year old original.

    Ram Limited Dash issue

    I guess I got lucky. I had the truck into the dealer for a cracked manifold (66k w/ Mopar extended warranty) and asked the service guy to see if Ram would help with the dash. They offered to replace it for $550 with Ram eating the remaining $800. I said yes and so far no rattles or squeaks.

    Interior Dash delaminating and bubbling

    Don't beat yourself up about using a sun shade or garage. I have used a shade religiously since day 1 and my dash just started bubbling on either side of the center bump. I think it's heat plus time and most will develop this problem. Not sure how I'm going to proceed from here, gotta do more...

    Went and registered with a new email, confirmed email, close browser and use a different browser, log in and surf around rams site. Make sure to disable any pop up blockers. This worked for me today, took about 10 minutes. Good luck.

    Horn not beeping when locking with remote. Beep setting on.

    I have to say the horn beep on lock is the most annoying feature of all time. It should be deleted from all vehicles in the name of peace and quiet. Push the button on the remote and either watch the lock go down or watch the lights flash as you walk away. Try it, you will be a better person...

    2019 Rambox Gun mount??

    That looks pretty sweet. Always worried about stopping for food when traveling to a hunting location. This is a good solution.
