Hello,
New Ram owner here! So far I love the truck, I do have a few common issues:
AC is week not as cold as I think it should be, I have to really slam the the tailgate to latch, moderate wind noise from the sun roof at highway speeds.Now I have a new one, I can feel a faint vibration through the floor board during acceleration. Sometimes I can feel something different ( not sure what yet ) through the steering wheel at the same time.

The best description that I can compare this would be the start of bad wheel bearing. I have 2700 miles on the truck so far, I doubt its any bearings its the only thing that I can come up with for a comparison. Could one of the vibration isolator's cause this kind of feeling through the floor of the truck?

Check your alignment. Could be tires aren't aligned and its causing wobble and vibration

Was there ever a resolution to this? I have the exact same issue on my 2019 rebel with 3000 miles. Vibration through the floor, gas pedal, and steering wheel at all different speeds. Pretty random when it occurs. It just started last week.

Hi Joshrebel19,

We're sorry to hear that you have a vibration concern with your Ram. Have you brought this to the attention of your Ram dealer? Please send our team a private message if you are in need of additional assistance while your truck is in service.

Good luck with this issue. Several threads on this. I get the vibration in the gas pedal and sometimes floor board. I have had it come and go since this winter. Ram will tell you to take it in. The dealerships tell you either they can't feel it ( I feel it as soon as I drive off the lot) or when they do feel it they say it is a normal vibration. Been to the dealerships many times for this. I stopped bringing it in because I did not want my time wasted by the back and forth bull crap between the dealerships and Ram. Waiting on a service bulletin (hopefully).

Damn. I hate stuff like this. I just got out of a Chevy Silverado (shakerado). That's the main reason I traded it in and bought a brand new truck from a different brand. I really hope I don't have another shaker that can't be fixed. I honestly cant take another loss. Crossing my fingers my next service can tell me something positive.

Joshrebel19 let us know if Ram or your dealer finds anything. Funny my case manager just called again today and said they are closing my case for vibration since the dealer says vibration is normal and Ram does not have any service bulletins out for this issue. Nice way for Ram to wash their hands of the situation isn't it. I couple months ago I drove another 2019 Ram that had a vibration way worse than mine that was sitting on a lot trying to be sold. You couldn't even get it over 5MPH without the steering wheel ,floor board, and both front doors from vibrating. At least mine is no where near as bad. I can always get case reopened if something changes. Total bull crap from Ram.

I'll definitely keep you posted. It's really starting to sour my ownership. I was ecstatic with this truck for the first 3000 miles. I really hope there's a fix.

Mine also vibrates, you can definitely feel something underneath while turning left. Took it to the dealer and they tighten some body mounts underneath (there’s a tsb about it) but didn’t fix the problem.

Coming from an F150 driver side vibration is crazy you can watch your leg vibrate. The dealers say it’s normal. Every F150 I’ve owned has done it some worse than others. Now my Ram rides smooth like silk.
