    Ram Rev Delayed To 2026 Ramcharger Due 2025

    You've just detailed part of why people hate car dealerships and wish the dealership lobby wouldn't require them to be involved in the car purchasing process.

    Electric Vehicles Are Less Reliable Than Conventional Cars

    Consumer Reports' "reliability" ratings, which are widely reported in the media, are a TERRIBLE measure of reliability. They measure "issues." An issue with a stuck glove box gets lumped in and counted similarly to a blown transmission. CR claims to "weight" them appropriately, however, they...

    Surging at low speeds?

    My 2019 Hemi has done the same thing since new. It's not often, is at one particular constant speed at one particular throttle position. I usually notice it in creeping traffic, particularly when waiting at metering lights entering the freeway. When it does, I just adjust to more or less...

    Meet The Range Extending 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger Pickup

    The Verge isn't a automotive resource and their statement makes no sense: "On gas, the truck is only capable of 174 horsepower" The truck will ALWAYS be capable of 663 horsepower, because that is what the electric motors are rated at. The gas engine might be rated at 174 hp, but that is...

    Android 12 broke Android Auto

    Projection manager? I don't see anything like that in uconnect menus. Only "phone/Bluetooth" which only gives option to pair/unpair

    Android 12 broke Android Auto

    I have a Pixel 4a5g and recently updated to Android 12. I am not unable to get Android Auto to launch on my 2019 Big Horn. I get a notification on the phone saying "connecting" and then one that says try a different cord or port, which I have done to no avail. It works fine on my Toyota...

    3:21 vs 3:92 Gears

    They lines are "crossing" at 2600 rpm, but the values aren't. There are two different scales on the graph, scale on the left is the TQ, Scale on the right is HP. At 5250 RPM looking at the correct scales, It is at about 350 for both HP and TQ. I'm guessing it's done to make the HP curve appear...

    Air conditioning Hack

    Might be worth it to extend your warranty if you are planning on keeping the truck and want to make sure this is fixed. Can go to 5 years/60,000 for about $1k.

    Air conditioning Hack

    @RamCares are you maintaining a list of people waiting on this fix? If so, count me in. I am going to be scheduling regular maintenance this week. Should I bother bringing it up to my service agent or should I wait until the fix is rolled out?

    Passenger Seat Popping

    Had this happen when I first got my truck 18 months or so ago. Only happened when a passenger was in the seat. The dealer replaced the passenger seat frame to resolve it.

    For those with 6 speaker base stereo who have upgraded-What speaker did you use?

    Repost of what I did from the other thread: I originally went with CDT 2-ohm 6x9's and JBL 3-ohm dash speakers. The combo was shrill and killed all bass. I swapped out the dash speakers for JL Audio 4-ohm speakers and it was a HUGE improvement. I still had to turn up the BASS on the EQ quite a...

    Bed Divider Needed for Hauling Smaller Items

    Do you have backseat passengers when you are doing this? Groceries normally get loaded on the floor of the rear cabin for me. One of the big benefits of the flat floors.

    Does 2020 Ram 1500 still has AC not cool enough problem?

    I think EVERYONE in this thread is correct.... and their AC are probably all functioning exactly the same, they just have different expectations. I have a 2019 and am disappointed in the AC performance. I came from 2003 GMC Sierra and the AC on that truck was colder, quieter, and flow a...

    Added factory subwoofer to base system w/ANC

    Are you saying the only connection you made was the speaker wire splice? No other connections for power/etc?

    Wind noise

    For me: 1) Loud clunk from passenger seat while turning with passenger in vehicle. (fixed by replacing seat frame) 2) Loud squealing from front brakes when high speed and low brake presure ie. slowing down for offramp of freeway (replaced brake pads and came back, just had calipers replaced, so...

    Ram Pickup Muscles Past Chevy Silverado in 2019 Sales

    Lifelong GM guy.... looked at the Sierra and the SLE interior felt like a work truck. We looked at the RAM Big Horn (cloth interior) before going to the GMC dealer and the first thing out of my wife's mouth was, "The interior looks cheap in this thing" (on a truck that cost $10,000 more.) It...

    Wind noise

    I've got the same problem... VERY loud noise at freeway speeds when there is a hard crosswind. Sounds like a train horn. It's intermittent and usually only lasts a second every 30 seconds or so under the right conditions. Sounds/Feels like the door is flexing and the wind is blowing past the...

    Anyone attempt the squeaky rear brakes themselves?

    I had brake pads replaced for front squealing brakes at high speeds at 7500 miles. About 10,000 miles the squealing returned. I am now also experiencing the rear brake moan in reverse. I'm planning on having both issues looked at. What are the latest TSBs or other information I should have on...

    Fingers Crossed...Brake Squeal Resolved

    I took mine in for a few issues including brake squeal. Dealer said there was a TSB for brake pads. They replaced them and it was silent.... for about 1000 miles and now the brake squeal is back. I only hear it at freeway speeds with light brake pressures (scrubbing speed on offramps or slowing...
