My tailgate had so much movement it was making contact with the passenger side bed rail at the top, just had my truck at the dealer yesterday to replace a rear shock that was clunking and the tech said the tailgate was clunking aswell so he adjusted it and replaced the pivot bushing. New...

A larger tire will generally require less pressure as it spreads the weight out more. Keep and eye on tire wear and increase the pressure if the outside edges wear faster than the middle and less air if the middle wears out faster. And if the inner or outer edges wear differently it’s time for...

Using 4wd in high traction environments like dry pavement is not recommended as it can cause binding in the transfer case due to different speeds between the front and rear wheels while turning. If you didn’t experience catastrophic failure of the transfer case it is highly unlikely you caused...

I have a 5 amp NOCO onboard charger wired up with my block heater that I use in the winter. Being a battery maintainer there is no harm in leaving it hooked up to your battery for extended periods. A 1 amp maintainer may be enough to keep the battery topped off, but for the little difference in...

Not without removing the rad fan. There is coolant visible under the rad area dripping from a plastic shroud tho.

Finally got to the dealer to have this looked at, tech says there is a leak from the bottom of the radiator when the system is pressurized. Being replaced under warranty when the parts arrive. Losing roughly .5 litres every 2 weeks.

You can temporarily remove your sway bar and end links to narrow down suspension clunks. I have thought about removing mine permanently, but ended up just replacing the sway bar bushings every fall.

I may try and take a closer look prior to visiting the dealer to see what the issue is, hoping for some warmer weather to do so. I had my charge air cooler replaced under warranty a few months back, hopefully they didn’t cause the radiator leak.

Noticed my coolant was low the other day, topped it up and figured nothing of it. Today I noticed a couple pink drips in the snow so I crawled under and found this, should be covered under my extended warranty. Just gotta find time to bring it to the nearest dealer 3 hours away.

Definitely a weird issue, hopefully someone who has had similar issues can help with a solution. Things I would check is battery voltage with the truck off and asleep ( takes a while and key fob cannot be near the vehicle) While the issue is present I would check voltage at the starter relay...

Two tsb’s I found. Both were performed on my 2020 and eventually fixed the starting issues I had. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2021/MC-10220961-9999.pdf https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2020/MC-10229299-9999.pdf My 2020 also had a loose ground on the back of the engine block which...

I would get the battery tested somewhere other than the dealer. Low/dead batteries can cause all sorts of issues in these newer vehicles. It may be a new battery, but that doesn’t mean it’s good. There was also a software update for that model year that fixed an issue with remote start not...

Red lock tab is a safety for the main tab holding the connector on. Once it is released you’ll have to push down on the release tab to get the connector to come free. It may also help to use compressed air to clean off the connector prior to removal, sometimes they’ll get enough dirt in them so...

Your cabin filter may be full of snow if the blower fan is operating. Has happened to me a few times with high winds and blowing snow.

I did, I dropped the rear of the headliner to expose the area that came loose and applied a construction adhesive where the roof panel and support rib met.
