    Headlight issue help!

    $1,300 was the price in northern NJ. Part is $700-800 then labor was a few hours because seemingly every piece of front end trim needs to come off. This happened to me at 72 miles the day I picked it up so covered under warranty; but planning to buy a MOPAR extended warranty. Sent from my...

    Paint bubbling on new truck

    I bought this truck in part because of the American angle and also because our Durango has been trouble free. Would have gone with Tundra (which is designed and built in the US) but they’ve had their own quality problems and the design is so dated. I get really nervous about running cost once...

    Paint bubbling on new truck

    Is it aluminum corrosion or just some solvent or something that wasn’t fully cleaned before painting? There was no damage to the area to trigger this. Honestly a bit disappointed with the build quality on this truck. Have had a bunch of problems. BTW all the frames have a spot rust on them...

    Paint bubbling on new truck

    I noticed some small bubbles in the paint in my tailgate, can feel them when running my finger over it. Truck is four months old and these just appeared recently. No damage that would have caused this. Anyone else have this? How much of a hassle will I get from the dealer/Stellantis for fixing...

    Brand new Ram has rust.

    Mine (April 21 build) has the same thing as the OP in the same place. How have dealers reacted to this? It is really stand looks like there was some sort of bracket there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Towing

    Thank you for confirming this. Obviously the materials from RAM say to add tongue weight when calculating gross vehicle weight but there are plenty of sites that state things like , e.g. with a 1,000 payload and 10,000 tow rating, you can carry 1,000lbs of stuff and tow 9,000lbs which, assuming...

    Hard tonneau cover for '21 with rambox

    I have a ‘21 w the ram box. Installed bakflip4 this weekend. Was actually even easier than non rambox, it just slides in channels in the silver rails. It folds up against the back of the cab. If you have the rear view mirror camera it also doesn’t block that when folded up which is great. Just...

    Rambox bed divider/extender, officially no longer an extender

    I just installed these today. I don’t think I’ll ever use them. I only got them because the gov’t doesn’t want me to have them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Who else’s new RAM looks like this underneath?

    It seems like build quality has been FIAT’s contribution to the Stellantis stable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Multi-Function Tailgate: worth it?

    The MFT is awesome. With a bed divider it makes the grocery runs much easier. Sorry if this costs me man cred. but this truck will do mundane domestic stuff much more than than manly truck stuff. Ramboxes also well worth it. RAM is definitely ahead of Ford, GM, and others on truly value added...

    Multi-Function Tailgate: worth it?

    I’m so glad you posted this. I got my truck with MFT two weeks and and really have to slam both regular tailgate and MFT to get it to close. Glad that will get better with use. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Moisture in headlight housings?

    The headlight straight up does not work. Not just reduced due to moister, does not come on at all. Except at random it flashes/flickers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Moisture in headlight housings?

    72 miles on my 2021 Longhorn and the left turn signal is out, left headlight out, and left steering directed headlight out. Housing has more condensation than a hot shower. Local Dealer (not who I bought from) was supposed to take it tomorrow and then called with some nonsense that it is...

    Order Tracking

    Has anyone else gotten the RAM Chat response that the vehicle is built but awaiting additional equipment? Curious if this means I am past the chip shortage issue or if they're building them w/o certain stuff and parking until the rest of the parts come in. Ordered late Feb and this was the...
