I bought this 2019 ram bighorn on Saturday. It’s used with 53k miles. I have driven it about 150 miles before it started making this terrible sound. Do you have any idea what it could be?

Thank you in advance!

Dealer just called and I need new ball joints. They are on back order so I will have a loaner for a few weeks.

I would just keep my truck until they have the parts and ready to do it, assuming it's still drivable?

Having my truck sit at a dealership lot for so long, with the tight confines and probably dings and dents from vehicles being moved around would give me the hives.

Not just that, but with the UAW strike parts will take a long time to arrive.

I'd probably ask if they will use aftermarket ball joints that are readily available, or all new UCAs

Wow a loaner. I just dropped my truck off for a water pump (under warranty) and I got the offer of a ride on the shuttle and waited 45 minutes…. Dealerships in OK are ****
