    New rear glass. New 3rd Brake Light. Still leaking???

    Have the sunroof and sunroof drains been checked?

    Is the rear diff locker needed for mud?

    A locker, locks the rear axles together. When the diff is locked, both axles will get power, at all times. This is ideal for off road, but undesirable for on road. An LSD works like an open diff, but engages both axles, when one wheel starts to slip. You're correct, that it doesn't engage...

    Sounds like you have a good working AC.

    Is this a good deal?

    Not a good deal at all.

    Air conditioning performance

    You're absolutely right. Getting access to the HVAC box requires tearing the dash apart. To my knowledge, only one dealer has attempted the procedure, and they trashed board member Albert193500's new truck. Plus, he said his AC was still messed up, when he got his truck back. He never did...

    Air conditioning performance

    It is pretty obvious at this point, that FCA does not have an answer, and cannot fix the HVAC issues that are plaguing 5th gens. Therefore, for the unlucky owners that have a crappy AC, there's really only two solutions. 1. AC hack 2. Sell the truck If you like the truck, do the AC hack and...

    Air Condition issues

    It's my suspicion that maybe there is a lot of faulty HVAC boxes. However, I don't understand how it hasn't been solved by now.

    Is this a good deal??? 2019 bighorn

    And, you trust the dealer? Carfax shows a loan/lien reported, when it was originally sold. Why would a service vehicle have a loan on it? Carfax does show it as a corporate vehicle.

    Air Condition issues

    He did not say. If I recall correctly, he stated that FCA was aware of an issue, and his team was working on a solution. A short time later, he posted that they did not foresee a solution anytime in the future. I've looked for his posts, and I can't find them. I imagine FCA had the posts...

    Is this real life?

    I love when they offer you half your listed price, and then ask if you can deliver it to them. :ROFLMAO:

    Air Condition issues

    123yf is not the problem. Many scientific comparison tests have been conducted, since 123 came out. The consensus is that 123 can produce the safe results as R134, as long as the system is designed properly. The difference between the two is negligible. The real problem with the Ram A/C is a...

    Is this a good deal??? 2019 bighorn

    I think the price is average at best. You should be able to get a new truck for 13K to 15K off MSRP. Also, the truck posted has a clean carfax. However, based on the only picture posted of the front end, I have a sneaky suspicion it's had body work to the front. I would inspect the front end...

    Is this real life?

    Thank you for the morning laugh. Probably a 15 year old boy, looking for a cheap/used truck, thinking he just found the deal of the millennium. :D

    Bad quality control?

    I agree with silver64. Sounds like the alternator is getting ready to crap. I know nothing about the Etorque, so maybe that is how it's supposed to sound.
