5th Gen issues
I bought my 2019 Ram in June of 2019. The only issue I have had is replacing both Ext mirros. The plastic parts in them broke. The dealer told me he has had to replace several of them. He thinks they went to a cheaper source and the units are not holding up. The dealer replaced them under warranty and so far the replacements have worked fine.

I have a 2019 with a 5.7 and I'm having an issue with the MDS causing a rumbling noise/vibration when I give it gas. Feels like it is having a problem or struggling going from 4 to 8 cylinders. For now, I manually take it out of ECO mode but pressing the minus button on the steering wheel and putting the transmission into 8th gear. The results?
1) runs a lot smoother, although not as good as I would like;
2) with it running on all 8 cylinders all the time I see no loss in gas mileage, so I feel the MDS/ECO stuff is useless;
3) I definitely feel the transmission downshifting when I take my foot off the gas, which helps me use my brakes less, especially where I live where there are a lot of hills.

Well I hit the 65,000+ mark and had the 2 rear heat shield bolt snap and now have the dreaded Semi tick. Getting ready to order my shorty headers. I guess I am going with the BBK. They seem to be the most reasonable. Thankfully the bolts snapped in front of the manifold just behind the sheild...I'll keep you all posted on the progression.
