#104 of 198 Ram 1500 by johnnc1 Jul 30, 2006 (5:47 am)
I have not had much luck with my Dodge 1500. So far I have replace 2 transmission, one rear differential. The dash has literally fallen out of the truck in peaces. The paint is of poor quality and the over all truck is of poor design as far as the way it is put together and the materials used. I have had to push ever issue to the wall to get the dealers to fix the obviously manufactures defects, Week and months lost as the truck set at the dealer. It’s a shame I really like the truck looks and room in the cab, if they would use good quality materials and rethink the way the truck is put together it could be one of the best.

Replying to: johnnc1 (Jul 30, 2006 5:47 am) Hmm. What year is your Ram? Mileage? New-bought or used? My '03 2500 is the best-built vehicle I've ever owned, and I haven't had a problem that wasn't my own fault (gelled fuel) yet. What manufacturer defects do you have? My paint is fine (aside from the dings I've put in it) and my dashboard is solid. I can't answer for your tranny or diff as my 6-speed manual and heavy-duty diff were never available in the 1500.

Replying to: KarenS (Mar 22, 2002 10:58 am) Hello everyone, My name is Michael and I bought My first new Dodge ram 2500 quad cab last year. I've owned a few dodge diesels in the past. I loved the truck, plenty of room, plenty of power and got great fuel mileage. Shortly after I got it though it started having starting problems, and they turned into stalling problems. Has any one heard of this with the 05's? It had been in the shop several times, but since id did thid=s only intermitently they never could find the problem or recreate it. It is not a problem anymore since it helped me to not negatiate a sharp curve in the road, but would like to know if this is a common problem before I buy another new truck.

A national newspaper is looking to interview consumers who have decided to hold on to their current pickup truck, rather than purchasing a new one. Please send an e-mail to ctalatiedmunds.com no later than Wednesday, August 9, 2006 by 2:30 PM PT/5:30 PM ET containing your daytime contact information and what pickup truck you currently own.

Replying to: bigdawg0100 (Aug 10, 2006 10:39 am) If I were you, I'd seek out a Rhinoliner or Herculiner (or other brand of bedliner) dealer and get your bed lined. If you scratched up the old paint job, you'll scratch up the new paint job - a spray-in liner will hide all of that. I do NOT recommend a drop-in liner. I had my truck Rhinolined the week after I got it and it's holding up just fine (though it's quite dusty looking).

Replying to: bigdawg0100 (Aug 14, 2006 6:37 am) Well, my Rhinoliner was $470 - no special colors but they're expensive around here. If you're just looking for a paint job, call around and get some quotes. There are a lot of variables, and we can't get you a quote from in here. Again, if you scratched up the old paint, you'll scratch up the new paint.
#113 of 198 Steering Noise/Vibration by 06thunderroad Oct 28, 2006 (7:30 am)
had a question whether anyone has this issue with their 1500. on left turns when not going fast (turning, etc) there is a vibration/rubbing noise in the steering. the dealer said they could not replicate it at the present time ((suppose they did not check enough)).. it does it every day. a friend of mine had a 2003 and his did the same thing. just wondering if it is something normal with a ram. this is my first truck and love everything else about it. thanks Replies to this message: kcram (Oct 28, 2006 4:10 pm) 06ram (Nov 17, 2006 5:49 pm) 06thunderroad (Nov 18, 2006 5:45 am) jstringer (Apr 07, 2007 12:53 pm)
