    4WD won’t engage, 2019 ram 1500

    A lot of good stuff. 1. Use ALL 4wd options about once a month, even if it's just for a few yards. Keep those actuators lubed and moving. 2. A manual override would be an OUTSTANDING addition.

    Problem with rear outside door handles

    I would think the warranty for the repair would cover the cable. If not...open a RamCares thread. And bring copies of ALL the times you complained about it.

    Mopar or AMP Research? Which would you get?

    Somewhere I posted pictures of where I did it and how I did it. I used the panel on the left, near the light controls. Hmmm. Not sure where I posted my thread...

    Key Fobs and LED interference

    I have Lasfit in my 2021 third brake and payload light. No interference. (A previous light did interfere, from a different company. I forget which.) I was happy with Lasfit and got my son some for his 2022 setup. Again, Lasfit just works. No interference.

    980 pounds in bed...like it wasn't even there

    Well, I think two Philly fans in the bed would max out just about any payload. ;)

    980 pounds in bed...like it wasn't even there

    I just came back from a tile store, about 45 minutes away. (My wife has advised me that we need to "refresh" our house. I blame HGTV.) I loaded 980 pounds of tile into the bed. I could barely even tell that the truck had a heavy load in it. There was just a hair of a delay coming off red lights...

    Rear window leak

    Well, I think they said they did. In 2021. And then again in 2022. Permatex. Okay, Permatex AND a Class Action Lawsuit (<- the goal being recompense for ANY expense due to leaks, AND lifetime replacement and damage coverage.) After 100 years of mass-produced automobile glass, leaking seams...

    Should I Even Consider the EcoDiesel (3rd Gen)?

    I don't have a good financial argument for my EcoDiesel. ;) When I tow (a light trailer, about 3-4,000 lbs MAX, usually more like 2,000-3,000 lbs, but it has a large 6'x4' ramp that creates a LOT of highway drag), the EcoDiesel acts like it's not even there. The low-end torque and the easy...

    Diesel additives “POWER SERVICE” brand name

    I've used Power Service in several diesels. Grey or white, depending on the temp. About 1 1/2 million total diesel miles. All good. For my EcoDiesel, I'm using Amsoil. Why change? Well, I'm curious. I'm -still- using the Power Service in my TDi, but my truck gets a 50/50 mix of the Amsoil...

    New truck question. Speaker noise when first open door normal?

    Nothing. Just the mechanical sounds (if any) of a door unlatching and opening.

    New truck question. Speaker noise when first open door normal?

    My speaker doesn't pop. My son's 2022 Big Horn speaker doesn't pop.

    Rear window leak

    Contact a lawyer. Have that lawyer contact the dealership.

    Engine stalled / shut off

    Keep track of all the failures. Best if you can record it as they occur. Then look up your state's lemon law. Contact an attorney. THEN contact the dealer.

    Rear window leak

    Like @mikeru82 just said, buy the light yourself. There are some discount sellers of oem equipment out there. Less than $50...heck, I think it's less than $30. And, get some permatex (the stuff we've talked about upstream) and caulk the outside of the window. That -should- fix it. (FWIW, my...

    Rear window leak

    Lawyer? Join the class action lawsuit (when able)? Contact a local news channel and link them to all the reports of leaking windows on this forum?

    2023 Ram 1500 Named ‘Best Large Pickup Truck in Canada’ By AJAC

    I guess the journalists didn't store their gear in the rear passenger area during a rainstorm. Or else it would have gotten soaked due to the widespread leaking rear window issue. RAM needs to publicly address this and extend the warranty on it.

    The dreaded leaking and cracked rear window frame

    I think a modification of the rear bulkhead is in order. I wonder how difficult it would be to add waterproofing, or water routing, onto or around the various boxes bolted to the rear bulkhead? If I get another rear window leak, the moldy carpet is bad enough: I can't imagine the pain of having...
