Hello:

I picked up my Dodge Ram 1500 Sport 4x4 Crew Cab, and put on roughly 500 miles. I like the truck, but one thing is irritating me.

Driving over certain roads I can hear a "rub/vibration" from the center console. It's not rattling, just a rub/vibration sound from the plastic/rubber center console (radio).

I can go over railroad crossing and large bumps and not hear anything. It's just certain roads that I can hear it. If I put my finger on the plastic piece around the radio it stops.

I've owned MANY cars in the last 10 years, and I've never experienced this before. All have never had any type of vibration at all.

Anyone else experience this? So, what do I do? It just sucks spending this kind of money, and having to post a question like this

THANKS,
PJ

 

No vibrations on my 09 Sport 2wd

 

Only vibration I get is when the slider window is all the way open, sometimes it seems to vibrate in the track.

 

I have/had a squeak in the center console. I think its gone away now though, at least I don't hear it anymore. I have 11,500.0 miles 09 Sport Crew Cab 4X4

 

I have a similar issue with the center console and the center (radio) stack rubbing together. Looks like the bottom left and right corners of the pieces are hitting. Like you said it doesn't happen all the time only on certain roads. If I press down on the left corner of the console where it meets the center stack the I can feel the vibration and the noise stops.

 

Same here, plus a noise from the handle of my center left console. I can be pretty freaking annoying.

 

Um I would say a new truck, rattle or vibration = warranty. Call Dealer make appt., go there they try to figure it out most likely do, either fix or order part you go home wait, part comes in a week you go back and all fixed.

 

Not to sound ignorant but is this your first car for some of you? I would say this post is not worth continuing unless someone knows a quick fix that can stop you wasting your time making most likely 2 trips to the dealer. Sorry, but when you buy a new truck and something is wrong with it....common sense says "use that warranty"

 

My truck is at the dealer for the 4th time now. The nice thing is, you can't hear the rattles over the rear gears that are shot.
