Need to ask a few questions about my 2025 that my dealer is clueless about!

the push button stop/start does not have an ACC position. only off and on/run.
So when it is on on/run, all accessories are on.
so if I want to sit in the truck and listen to the radio, all accessories are on.

That won't hurt anything other than run your battery down if you keep it on long enough. You didn't want to do that back in the day but it's fine on modern cars and trucks.

Tried - no go
thanks
This is just dumb and makes no sense to remove this feature

What is your concern with having the truck in on/run position?

everything except engine is on
I can turn-off ac and other stuff - however, don't see a benefit from RAM removing this basic function!

Doesn't your radio stay on for certain amount of time after shutting vehicle off, as long as you don't open the door?

30 seconds!

Check radio settings. I believe there is a setting to stay on longer.

Happy Ram Owner
there have been reports of bad batteries soon after delivery
I'm not sure how they would have an ACC position with a push button other than to go with a more complex one. Every vehicle I've owned with a push button worked the same way. Change the settings for how long your radio stays on after shutting the truck off to max, which I believe is 15 minutes. If you need it to stay on longer you can turn the truck on then off for another 15 minute session.

Go into your radio, you can change it from instant to 30 seconds, 10 minutes etc.
It shuts off as soon as you open the door though.

I think in this case it is operating as designed not as desired. Nothing the dealer can do to fix the car or the customer.

The 2020 ram in your signature has an ACC position on your push button:
Even other vehicles that don’t have an ACC position that you pass while getting to the run position like the Rams, you can still get to the ACC ignition on by pressing and holding the start button with foot off brake.
With the 2025 Ram (and wagoneers and grand Cherokees with the new CAN architecture), there is flat out no ACC ignition position, nor are there any ACC ignition relay circuits on either of the power distribution centers. There are only run relay, and run/start relay circuits.
Threadjack; is it usual for a Start button to crack/split with only 4 years/17K on it?
