Sorry for your issues. Ditto for me with Ram Cares - useless and couldn't understand him and did not call back UNTIL repaired. No loaner for me while it took 4 months to get my motor replaced under the "lifetime warranty". On a positive note the motor was replaced and only cost $100 plus tax...

No laugh intended. I have a 2011 Honda Fit that I received from my father in law. He was 95 1/2 when he let it go. Took me a lot of detailing to get it "new". Looked like it came out of the showroom when I got done. Had less than 12,000 miles on it when I received it. Been there done that...

Thanks Snwjnky and Ram Forum members. Tried the battery disconnect - no good. Read the forum posts and the radio did reset after holding down volume and tune buttons. BUT I did several attempts, Ram came up on screen but went black again, kept trying and finally screen came up. And did not hear...

I think that's an $800 bezel from what I recall from window sticker.

My experience different. I went into the dealership at the five year mark to inquire about a required inspection for my lifetime warranty (not required) and the first question was "Did you buy the vehicle here?" I had. He said they were not taking vehicles not purchased from them. It took 4...

Had a dropped valve at 40,011 miles and motor replaced. From my conversation with the mechanic who replaced the motor it can go back to the lifter. Lifter to push rod to rocker panel to valves. Below is a link to videos on the topic if you want to delve into the engine mechanics...

Do you think the "local" Ram service shop takes into consideration where you bought your vehicle when performing service?

NY you pay tax on a rebate.
