    They have now replaced the BCM (Body Control Module) and a wire harness that runs from the headlights rea to behind the dash (no part number given) The problem still persists

    Auto Start/Stop error

    you are probably correct that a previous owner turned it off If you are under warranty, have the dealer look at it...they probably had no idea someone had disabled it, so they can restore it easily the eTorque Stop/Start works so quickly there is no reason to shut it off,...why buy an eTorque...

    Auto Start/Stop error

    the issue is pointing to being bad wiring, my concern is not the daily nuisance of the start/stop, but the long term reliability of an expensive vehicle with a problem that may get worse in the future after the warranty expires

    Auto Start/Stop error

    FCA easily approved the "cash & keep" settlement or vehicle buyback once the lemon-law specifications were met. I'm currently giving them the opportunity to repair the truck a final time It's been a straightforward conversation, but it's not without frustrations...you do have to let the process...

    Auto Start/Stop error

    You have to take it back again and start a new service,...you do this until they either fix it or you have satisfied the Lemon Law requirements for your state you should contact Ram Cares and start an FCA case asap, they will help you with the dealer conversation.

    I'm well into lemon law...they are working with me on Cash & Keep settlement or Buyback, I have the option currently I'm just waiting to see if they can even fix the truck (so far they have yet to identify the problem) I'm trying to avoid a buyback at the moment because the market for trucks...

    Thinking about switching to RAM -objective opinions.

    it tows much nicer than my 2016 Silverado the front level is easy using Fox/Mopar or Bilstein, and you can clear 34's easily...and 35"s with very minor trimming

    Thinking about switching to RAM -objective opinions.

    There are a few oddball things to be mindful of,...the axle gear ratios are not changeable via aftermarket later. If you get a 3.21 ratio...you have to replace the entire rear or front end to change that so make sure you order that as you want from the beginning as it's not plausible to change...

    Is the "hemi tick" still a thing in the latest models?

    shorty's should be,...I believe as long as the cats stay in their original location (not further away or closer inline), you can also change the cats...but again, they have to be a suitable replacement in the original location (some people use aftermarket cats from corvettes) To be honest, I...
