    Random issue starting the truck

    Just to add a piece of puzzle. Before starting the truck, you can display on your dash to see what your battery voltage is before cranking. May point you towards a battery or grounding problem!

    Well, the saga continues. When I picked up my truck last week, I put a battery charger, 4.3 Amp CTEK - 40-206 MXS 5.0 Fully Automatic, on my new battery overnight to top off. I thought the charging voltages while driving around was kind of high, 14.3v, but apparently that is normal. Drove around...

    It's probably not prone to failure but I did find a few post where said switch was bad. I also had a driver side door handle break. Not giving up on my RAM yet but I don't like how hot my Transmission Runs when Towing my 5K Travel Trailer

    Yeap, if your truck doesn't break down in your driveway and your 150 miles away from home. Maybe cheap insurance. At least it wasn't the $450 RF Hub behind the rear seat.

    I mentioned a Red Start/Stop Button would not have been objectionable to the Service Manger if they had that part on hand. In addition to the extra horsepower everyone gets for said mod

    Picked up my pick-up last night from dealer, $377.35 to replace Start/Stop Button ($79) and $44.59 Shop Supplies! Of course pickup would not start, hood was left open in the latch position, which will give you a message when you try to remote start, Remote Start will not work, hood open...

    Found the below comment on another forum but poster never responded to fix. Someone replied to replace On /Off Switch. My truck seemed to behave similarly, I would Turn off my truck and it would be in ACC mode. Greetings all -- new to posting here. I have a 2019 Laramie and lately when I go to...

    It rained heavily last night sitting outside at the dealership. What makes me mad is that they never took the battery out last night to charge. Don't know how they moved it from dropoff by tow truck to just outside a bay? Yes it doesn't start and per service manager acts like a dead cell...

    I'm going to BS on dealer for now. Service Manager is going to call me that I need a $412 plus tax to troubleshoot my RAM. 2x the cost for a battery pretty much anywhere else, 🤯
