2013 vibrations
Hi All,
I'm new here and looking for some advice. I bought a 2013 Ram 1500 Laramie at the end of July. Since then it has been in the shop for about 40 days for numerous things, mainly a vibration from 65-75 (its not the MDS system as I will put it in tow/haul to disable). The truck has now had 3 sets of tires and balanced countless times (last being a $1400 set of Michelin's), the rims and drive shaft have been swapped out, axles have been mic'ed, Chrysler engineer has come out and test drove with sensors and reports that the "vibration" is normal for the truck and within the "Chrysler tolerance" for the truck.
Is anyone else having any issues like this or have any advice? Or am I just stuck with a $50k back massager?

2013 bought in september 2013. Same issues anywhere between 55-80 mph. Vibrates so much that my center console shimmy's left and right about an inch each way. Just had my tires balanced yesterday so we'll see if that helps...based on this thread I'm fearing it didn't.
i have a buddy here at work that had a similar issue turns out one of the trans mounts was smaller than the other and it put the dirve shaft at a different angle after the mounts were changed the vibration went away. this was not a 2013 but an older model but was fairly new at the time.
my 2014 ram Laramie was purchased feb 1 2014. now it is 2 weeks old and 700 miles and there is a vibration at 2000 rpms. dealer told me that they had a ram in last week and they determined it was the characteristic of the truck. how could it be if not all rams vibrate?
