    New info on Gas tank fueling issue

    Glad they fixed it for you, but how in hell is the vapor canister not part of the emissions warranty? Can you share the BS they handed you before they did the "courtesy repair"?

    Windshield wiper replacement?

    Been using Bosch Icon's. The last set lasted 1.5 years which is great here in Southeast Texas. Between the rain, tree pollen and these damn black bugs that excrete some sort of sticky liquid the cheaper ones are junk after 2-3 months. I have a 2021 which calls for 24" blades. Did they change the...

    Auto Start/Stop error

    Have a 21 Lonestar w/51k miles. I have not yet had the S/S issue but I think I may be heading towards it: When stopped, the restart sometimes gets a bit jerky, also it shudders a bit during shutdown. No warning lights. It only does this in the afternoon when I am leaving work after it sits for 9...

    Ford to Eliminate Park Assist Feature - Will Stellantis follow?

    Talking about a single item is tunnel vision? I'm wasn't concerning myself with anything else but the thread subject and I wasn't the one that expanded it, you did.

    RAM app no remote start

    Just use the FOB....Paying for the useless and/or redundant features on UConnect is a waste of money.

    Powertrain Malfunction Indicator Light

    See my post above.....It's been cold down here over the last month so I've been using my remote start (from the FOB) just about every morning. Last night, I get an email from the powers that be at RAM telling me that I should renew the remote app so I can use the remote start feature on it. No...

    Extended warranty

    I believe to get an extended warranty from Chrysler, you have to buy it prior to the standard warranty expiring. The warranty would possibly expire this year and only give you an additional 16,000 miles unless it starts from the day you purchase the vehicle.

    Extended warranty

    Look over the paperwork very carefully. All extended warranty start dates are when the vehicle was originally put into service and not additional time/mileage. In your case the warranty may expire some time this year. If indeed he is offering you an additional 5 years from date of your purchase...

    Extended warranty

    I look at an Extended Warranty as a form of insurance policy. You need to be a combination electrical engineer, mechanic and contortionist to work on just about any newer vehicle these days. That and a small fortune in specialty tools is also needed. I've got a 21 LoneStar bought in 3/21 and is...

    Side View Mirror Glass Replacement.

    Hasn't been a very good couple of weeks, truck wise. I just noticed a crack in my passenger side view mirror. Probably happened going thru a car wash. The adjustments still work but the heater does not. Is there a way to just replace the glass without having to buy the entire mirror? It's a 21...

    2019 Ram 1500 Big Horn, wont turn over unless 13.4 volts applied.

    Check your battery connections. Make sure there is no corrosion and they are tight.

    Windshield Washers

    Now that I have the tester, I'll check each bottle when I bring it home and mark it. That way I know it's good to go. This is the first time I've ever come across this; I'm 71 years old and until recently, done all of this routine stuff myself. Arthritis is a real pain I'll tell you. Enjoy your...

    Windshield Washers

    So I found the appropriate hydrometer and tested the fluid in the truck. I found this one at a local parts store...

    Windshield Washers

    I’ve still got some clips left from the last time and I was able to determine it’s the passenger side. Note to self and everyone else……if you use an oil change place as I do, don’t let them add to your washer fluid with cold weather coming up. I’m going to invest in a refractometer specifically...

    Windshield Washers

    I use a 0 degree but the coldest it gets down here (Texas by by the Gulf) was 15 above this week. Damned if I know. Wife's Nissan Altima has no issues.

    Windshield Washers

    2nd time I've done this....below freezing and I pushed the button in too far and activated the washers when I was intending just to cycle the wipers. Blew off the water hose again. Unfortunately it's between the hood and insulation. A ton of clips to pull off and their almost impossible to pull...
