2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

Has anyone else experienced a rattle noise coming from somewhere, either at the driver's door panel area or the A post grab handle area on their truck? I've already taken the door panel off and the A post handle trim piece off, and don't see anything that would be rattling. It's driving me insane! I'm also still getting wind noise while driving, as if the driver door isn't fully shut, but it is. Someone mentioned bending the B post of the driver door in some more, which I did, but it didn't seem to make a difference.
I agree 25 doors need to be shut hard and window need to double checked cause they don't seat all the time. I have 14.5 screen and passenger screen hold dash makes plastic noise sucks. All the plastics are cheaper even the off road matts scratch when you touch them .

I don't have that rattle but do have a clunk/thump sound coming from the rear axle/rear area every time I drive over a moderately sized bump in the road.

As far as the wind noise, I have that on the passenger side, loud enough that having a conversation on the phone without holding the phone to my ear is not happening. With my noise I have learned that it gets much worse anytime there is a cross breeze blowing and hitting the passenger side of the truck. It goes away briefly if I drive past something (woods/trees/etc) that blocks the wind from that side, then once past the obstacle it comes right back. A tech at the dealer came for a ride and admitted something is wrong but I don't think they've tried to figure that one out yet as there's a list of things wrong they're working on. Maybe your wind noise is related to a cross wind type situation also.

I need to shut the doors to get them to latch much harder than I would like, especially since at least with the rear doors every time I shut them the bottom half of the exterior sheet metal on the doors bounces back and forth a couple times after shutting, as if the metal is super thin or not attached very well. Maybe there's not a minimum thickness certain manufactures need to use? All I know for sure is I've never seen another truck that does this, but then again this is the first ram I've purchased so maybe it's normal for ram.

I know the body gaps are horrible so happy mine is black.

I'm confident my seals just aren't sealed properly. When I'm stopped with cars going by, I can hear their tires rolling on the road as if I'm standing outside of my truck, if that makes sense. Something isn't right, but I know the dealer will be no help or say they don't hear anything out of the norm.
