Mine's an 06 with a little over 31k mi. Besides regular maintainence and modifications that I have done, I've only had two minor electrical issues. One was a bad ground on my driver's side parking light, and the other was a loose connection for my driver's side heated mirror.

I got 32 thousand on mine so far...got it bran new in 2008. Only complaints so far is all the rotors are warped and the handle in the dash by the side windows warped and bowed out like wtf warped rotors and the dash is warping already not a fan lol. Called the dealers up here and they wont replace break parts after 12,000 miles.......figures why even have warranty.

Pinion seal is easy fix and common especially if you aren't a maintenance freak. Dirty fluid causes leaky seals!!!

shocks only last 75kmi in a truck

Most brakes/rotors need to be done at 40kmi mark. That's their wearing point. Brakes don't last forever.

There was a Power steering TSB I believe???

Dashboard is prone. get yourself a sun visor. Custom fit by Mopar for $65. re4solves that issue.




I will add...CRAPPY tires stock...MDS sucked.

Turned mine back on for 2 days. Mileage went up on the highwway from 20 to 21.5, but the constant in and out drove me nuts. Highway drone was non-existent with the Magnaflow cat-back, but around town sounded like a helicopter following behind me, so I turned it back off.
