Trade it in and get a new one, not sure about Canadia but trade in value is booming here in the US.

Truck stinks
I have a brand new 2020 ram 1500 sport with 2000kms and it stinks inside I have pressured washed the husky liners, dried them, put a odor bomb in the truck with the ac on and still stinks only when the truck is parked (not driving) is this a thing with rams?

He is from Canada, RamCares can't help. He would have to get in contact with FCA Canada. I know I did and within a week of contacting them I had the service mgr help me, the service advisors weren't doing a thing. Everything all fixed now took 3 months but it got fixed.

But again, what can they do to fix it if they don't know what the problem is

@RamCares could possibly help. I just need to know what I should suggest to the dealer as to what the cause is as they don't seem to know what to do.
As a customer, you provide the description of the problem, not the solution. Let them provide the solution.

Yet, you expect a bunch of random strangers on an internet forum to correctly diagnose the problem with your stinky truck?

Hi there--
Unfortunately, like @2019REBEL said, our @RamCares team is unable to assist customers outside of the United States at this time. We recommend contacting the customer care in your region by email or by phone. You can find the contact information at the following link: https://www.fcacountryfinder.com/ or by calling the Canadian Customer Care line at 1-800-465-2001. I apologize that we cannot be of more assistance but I sincerely hope you reach a resolution quickly!
Have an awesome day,
Courtney

Unfortunately, I cannot speculate on the root cause of your concerns since there could be many factors that play into the overall concern. However, if you'd like me to look into this further to see if any TSB's apply to your specific vehicle, I can certainly do that! Just send our team a private message with your current mileage & VIN.
Thanks,
Courtney

I had a Nissan Titan that turned out to be a lemon . I had a water leak in the cab from the back windshield the only way I was able to determine it was leaking was by reaching behind the back seat up against the cab and pulling the carpet back and shoving paper towels in there.
When I ran a water hose on the roof of the cab or it rained I would take the paper towel out and it was moist and even soaked.
The dealership failed 4 times to fix it and it actually was worse when they finally bought it back from me and now I'm a proud owner of a Ram.

Never was a Titan fan...I always looked at them from the perspective of "that person probably couldn't afford a real truck and Nissan gives these Titan's away". When the new Titan came out, I went to look at them for giggles. Terrible fit and finish on a brand new $60K truck. I asked the GM to take a look at the truck on his showroom floor and pointed out all the defects. He was embarrassed to say the least.
