    Upgraded wireless charger?

    I take it back. Might have been my phone. I had a pixel 3 that charges at less than 5W in the truck. Got a new pixel 7 and charges at 10W and picks up about 20% charge over my drive now. Looks like the Ram Charger is rated for up to 10W wireless charging

    Upgraded wireless charger?

    Curious if anyone has installed a better wireless charger in place of the Ram charger for the phone. It's so low wattage and I usually only gain about 6-7% battery on my Pixel during a 20 minute drive to work. Works fine for long road trips to stay charged while running android auto or Spotify...

    Marked drop in highway economy?

    Well maybe it was a fluke. Drove the second half of my trip 200 miles and averaging 22mpg so 🤷‍♂️ seemed the ECO mode kicked in a lot more today on similar terrain

    Marked drop in highway economy?

    So I'm midway through a long road trip we have made half a dozen or so times over the last 2 years. Normally I get 21-24mpg highway per the dash readout. So far I'm getting 18mpg, which is just barely better than my mostly city commute to work mileage. City mileage has been the same. We have...

    2019 Limited leather dash bubbling/peeling question

    Unfortunately there's a ton of threads on this issue. I have only seen shop repairs reported

    How did you warranty your battery?

    [email protected] not sure if that's who I initially reached out to buy that's where the communication happened I can find in my email

    How did you warranty your battery?

    Sorry you had a bad experience. I had a red top in my old Legacy that was still going strong at 8 years when I sold it 3 years ago. My wife has had one for the last 4 years in her Forester without an issue either. My current yellow is going strong a year later.

    How did you warranty your battery?

    My truck died in a parking lot. I had the wife drive her car out to bring tools, pulled the battery, drove it to AutoZone, tested dead, bought an Optima, installed and drove the truck home. Emailed FCA warranty department, explained I couldn't take it in cause it was after dealership hours...

    Alignment required when replacing tires on a 2021 Ram Limited rolling in 22’s with 15.5k miles?

    I have a few thousand miles on them, XL as well. They are great in dry and wet and they are definitely better handling and shaper with steering as my stock Bridgestones felt soggy when turning. They haven't, and probably won't, see any snow where we live. I have found they do seem to like being...

    You picked good tires. I have liked mine so far. Did you get SL or XL rated?

    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    If the quick Google search versions of those are correct, neither seems to be what folks are experiencing. The 2021 TSB seems to be for an engine stall issue?

    Dash bubbles

    Dash needs replaced. Had this happen to mine. Thankfully happened under warranty. Is your windshield cracked too?

    Dead Battery Poll

    This is basically what I did but with FCA directly. They cut me a check for 100% of the new Optima I bought.

    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    Third time this came up for me in 20k miles. Slowing for a right hand turn. What I can't grasp is if the computer KNOWS enough to say shift to neutral then back why doesn't it just quickly do it automatically??

    Tire question and recs

    Meaning bumps are a little more noticeable, but not by much. Could get the H/T in the SL rating instead of XL and might negate that. Only difference should be sidewall stiffness and thus a slight difference in steering response. These are WAY better than the Duelers in steering

    Tire question and recs

    Yes, we live in the Gulf coast and there's 2-4" standing water all over the place constantly. They don't budge. I haven't spun them yet, which was a big complaint with the stock Duelers as they would spin from a stop on damp pavement even with light throttle. I love them so far though the ride...

    Soaking wet cabin filter

    Well I may have found the culprit. Allow me to walk you through just in case anyone else encounters this problem. First I had to remove the wiper cowl. I used this video to figure it out. Pretty easy other than the wipers were on pretty snug. Under the cowl you'll find the wiper motor and a...

    Soaking wet cabin filter

    So looking at the layout, I'm wondering if these tiny holes are all that let's the water drain from the cowl? There was some debris in them and I wonder if water pools here then as I start to drive sloshes over into the cabin intake, which is just below here.

    Soaking wet cabin filter

    So this happened again. Big storm this morning. As I pulled out of the driveway I heard an odd sloshing from the front passenger area just after pulling out. Backed up. Pulled the air filter and wet again. Left the AC off for a minute or two into the drive then started it back up. No more...
