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.

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.

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).

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.

Steering Noise/Vibration

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

You probably want to ask this question in the Dodge Ram: Low Speed Shudder discussion... those with similar problems may be looking there. Also look in the archived Dodge Ram: Problems & Solutions discussion and search on "vibration".
