I had the gas spill/spit problem already - dealer replaced the gas tank and that seems to have fixed the problem. Btw, what exactly is the "shimmy/hopping" problem that you're having? Mine shakes when driving between 60-65 mph. Just wondering if we're having the same problem...

 

I'm taking my Ram in on Tuesday for the rear diff clunking, change the frt diff fluid, T-case fluid and trans fluid. Also to see whats making the clicking noise in the engine and to re flash the computer and engine light is on.

 

Got the truck back this morning...the only thing improved so far is the tank. Filled her up on my way home with no spilling

The mirror shakes less (that's the side with the messed up suspension) but the new one whistles when driving . The gap between the base and mirror housing is too big causing the whistle...it's easily twice that of my other mirror. I just can't win....FML.

And then there's the windowssss. For some reason they replaced the outside moldings on the windows (one's back ordered)....but the scratching is on the inside of the windows like I told and showed them . FML again..

Suspension is still crappy on driverside..."road forced" balanced tires and all

So yeaaa...going back next week.

Yea the tech said the old tank had a bad check ball.


Over any little bump and especially on the highway the driverside shakes and shimmys up and down....the passenger side is fine over those same bumps though. If it was the whole truck then i'd chaulk it up to being normal....but when only one corner of one side is doing it there's something wrong.

 

It's a shame that so many dealers are total idiots. No wonder Chrysler is hurting. Most of these service writers don't know dung about cars. They are about as knowledgeable about cars as the young kids working at AutoZone. Many of the dealer mechanics can't think out of the box either. No code, no problem. WTF??? There is no TSB for that problem, so it must not exist.
I must admit that the Ford dealer network, though not perfect, is much better than Chrysler's. When I had my F150, I never had these type of problems with their service dept.
My Dodge dealer is OK, you just have to very clearly explain what your problem is to try to get it resolved.

 

the third gen rams a notorious for scratching after market window tint when u roll the window down. mines has verticle scratches all over the windows. i read it on this program called "all data". they have a whole list of defects.
but besides that i dont get sqeaky windows on mine and they have to be rolled up manualy

 

That's the main reason I want to get this fixed so I can tint my side windows. And not having people look at you like WTF when I roll my windows down would be nice....i'm starting to think i'm asking too much.

 

Consider yourself lucky... When I took mine in about the gas spitting problem, it took them a week to figure out the problem and then another week to get the new gas tank in. But the best part was getting my truck back with bird **** all over it.

 

Two weeks?? Geez that really sucks yet completely believable. I've noticed the dealer tends to put warranty work vehicles on the back burner....which is understandable since they get paid less verses a paying customer but it's still BS. That's why I called everyday it was there asking for a progress report which i'm sure pissed them off.
