    You are stuck in a loop with them. 90% of the time, most dealerships are not going to act upon customer supplied data. They may placate you and then discard it and do whatever they are going to do regardless. Time to find another dealership or lawyer up

    My pretty bad 2018 RAM 1500 Hemi experience, help/advice needed on what to do next

    "RamCares" Is a pool of people and not one person. Could be minutes, hours, days or never.

    What is the value of the truck if it was fine and running? Generally when the repairs exceed the value of the vehicle the extended warranty people will usually write it off and pay you out for the current value and send you on your way.

    RAM Customer Care Nightmare

    Kind of wish people would leave out the ancillary stuff and just stick to the issue of what broke. Everybody is put out regardless of situation when their vehicle breaks. Being a nomad by choice or necessity living out of your vehicle does not get one front of line privileges over anybody else...

    '25 Tungsten at the Minneapolis car show... didn't love it

    Interesting. I thought Stellantis pulled out of the car show circuit for 2024? They were not at the Philly show back in January.

    Internet forum guessing is only going to get you so far before you need someone who is a professional to put eyes on the problem. It is going to get expensive with the parts cannon guessing.

    Oil Filter Thread

    Viscosity of a particular oil grade is a range. You either have a light 40 weight or heavy 30 weight grade oil. They do not fall in decimal or half grades when mixing. There is calculators to figure out what grade you actually have if you have the tech data sheets of the oil used.

    Oil Filter Thread

    Sad to say, but the running average build quality of China made oil filters has outpaced many if not most USA made offerings.

    Unresolved Lemon Law Claim - Two Years and Counting - 2022 Ram 1500 Limited

    It is intellectual laziness. Like people who post the simplest of questions that could be answered readily by looking in the owners manual. It easier for them to just try and crowd source an answer and let others do the heavy lifting than just figure it out with the means already available to them.

    It is endemic on just about every vehicle forum of people only joining looking for magic bullet fixes and confirmation bias of their already bad decisions.

    Just bought a 2002 Dodge ram 1500 with 8 lug wheels

    What a mess. The only way I can see it getting sorted especially if moving to a emissions testing area/state, is to get the vehicle deemed and titled as what the frame and powertrain is.

    Yeah, you are right. I confused a H13 headlamp bulb and that will draw 4.5 amps.

    I get the point you are trying to make but most of us live in the real world that cannot afford the unknown response time of waiting on them multiple days in a row. It is unrealistic.

    Roadside assistance is contracted out third party. Dealership has nothing to do with it. Also, response times could be 30 minutes or 3+ hours.
