Hi,

Do you guys know any good reliable place which specialize in modern (full of electronics) RAMs in San Diego area?

End of warranty and lease buyout - both terms are coming at the same in less then a month. I'm looking for a great reliable place to find out if anything requires a fix or replacement before my warranty expires. Hopefully there is nothing what would make me change decision and didn't want to keep the truck (RAM 2019) but I want to make sure I'm not getting into some extra big cost because dealership service didn't notice it earlier. Regular visit just covers a basics checks and they were clear - they are not going to look to discover potential problems. They of course will fix them later :-/

My Jeep, which is in the same situation, just recently stopped turning off the engine (start-stop) so I had a reason to complain at the dealership. Apparently they had to replace 48 agm battery and then they discovered faulty ESS sensor and some other sensor. 1 month later and I would have to pay about $1500 or more.

Very friendly place. Thanks!
Unfortunately my idea of checking everything is quite idealistic. They, as well as a regular dealership service, cannot discover something what doesn't exists. If is completely obvious or the computer is showing something - sure, otherwise they can only do a general visual inspection and that's it.
I guess I shouldn't complain, be happy that truck is working nicely and hope nothing will break anytime soon.
