    Windshield wiper replacement?

    I use them right now, but OEM work better. Michelins from Costco are wobbly since they are not sitting as tight on wiper arms as OEMs. I will try ACDelco wiper refills to see if they fit OEM wipers. If it works - it will be the best of both worlds.

    Windshield wiper replacement?

    I've tried multiple wiper blade brands, including Michelin's from Costco. They don't work in the same way as OEM ones. They make noize and they don't wipe as dry as OEM. I'm using OEM wipers now, they are not very expensive - ~$25 each on eBay. However, Mopar doesn't offer wiper refills like...

    Ext Warranty value?

    This page is from 2017 and I don't see this moneyback guarantee in 2023 contract anymore... However, just pulled the trigger and purchased 5 years 60k miles maximum protection plan for my 2020 Rebel. I think $880 worth living worry-free (mostly) for 2 more years after factory warranty expires.

    Ext Warranty value?

    Actually you can. This is what Zeigler responded to me: The contract can be transferred to 1 new owner. Mopar has a $50 transfer fee. Should that owner sell the vehicle, they cannot transfer it again. The contract is then Null and Void. You can also cancel the contract and get a pro-rated...

    Ext Warranty value?

    Never had an extended warranty on my cars before, but considering getting it from Zeigler. $880 for 2 extra years, up to 60k miles. I already had an exhaust manifold replaced a month ago, plus leaking rear window this winter.

    Vibration after Bilstein 5100 leveling??

    Old thread, but reminds me my story. Leveled with 5100 on 5th setting. On 35" tires - all good, no vibration. But I've recently swapped to 32" Big Horn wheels for a smoother ride in the city and to improve trailer towing MPG. Until 80mph the ride is super smooth. However, after 80mph I can feel...

    Let's see those running boards/side steps

    After switching to Mopar power running boards I can't look on regular running boards sticking out of the truck. Best looking running boards are the boards you can't see and that don't touch the ground while you offroad. Just few days after installing them I went offroading and I've stuck. I...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    After getting passenger exhaust manifold replaced under warranty (tick is gone!), I've decided to pull the trigger on Mopar power running boards. Local dealer that did warranty repairs had one in stock, plus price was better then online ($1,500). It took me few hours to install it and activate...

    Rear window leak

    Try replacing the 3rd brake light seal, as I did based on SeaHog's advice. That's $10 half-hour job, won't harm.

    Rear window leak

    Thank you so much! I've replaced the stock gasket with this one (got it in local Home Depot) and leak is gone! Just to be safe I've also used two tubes of permatex on the glass.

    Rear window leak

    Can you share an Amazon link to the rubber seal you've used, please?

    Rear window leak

    Can you give more details please what to check and how to fix? Screws are tight, no visible gaps.

    Rear window leak

    I've got my truck from the dealership today. New window installed, no cracks in corners. Guess what - I drove 2 miles back from the dealership during mild rain - and I see water drops in the same place again. New window leaks from day 1. Will be doing a Permatex trick over the weekend.

    Air conditioning performance

    Asked dealership to follow TSB 24-001-20 and fix the issue with poor AC performance. They did some measurements and couldn't find any issued to get authorization for 5 hours of work and a lot of new parts. It is 45 degrees outside, so yes, hard to say that AC performance is poor. The problem is...

    Rear window leak

    Yes, you are right. Autonation is one big lie. I went to another dealership - they've diagnosed it within a day and confirmed that plastic trim in the corner of the sliding window is leaking, but brake light and glass itself don't leak. They've ordered a new glass and plan to replace it next week.

    Rear window leak

    I've got an update from the dealership this morning. They've cancelled my appointment and explained that Stellantis requires all cabin leak cases to go through an independent leak investigation provider. I was surprised to learn that there is a type of company like that, and there are a lot of...

    Rear window leak

    Greetings from Seattle, where it rains every other day. I drove my truck three weeks ago during heavy rain and parked it in the garage after that. Haven't used the truck since. Went for quick drive this week and saw A LOT of mold. Freaked out a little. Spent 4 hours removing all my belonging...

    Aftermarket 13.6" Display Radio

    It is not about the infotainment system per se, but more about software-based vehicles (Tesla, Rivian) vs integrated vehicle systems (basically every other manufacturer). I'm fine with features of 12" UAX since it is just an infotainment system and a way to send commands to BCM through touch...

    Best Trifold bed cover?

    I've learned something new today :) Then I assume tonneau covers of all these brands are produced on the same manufacturing facility.
