Hi, I'm new here. last january I succumbed to dodge fever and after test driving both dak, and quad ram, I decided on the 04 ram 1500. I love the truck and look forward to adding mods. I have 2700 miles on my new ram and already had to take her in for repair.
They found the ABS module connector burnt causing damage to ABS module, and shorted out rear wheel sensor. The speedo was jumping and the tranny was not shifting properly when I took her in. Has anyone else had this problem.

 

Welcome to DF!!!

I'm sorry you've had problems... sure doesn't sound common to me, I've not heard about it until now... I hope you aren't mad at your truck though...

Got any pics of your new toy to show?

What kind of mods you got in mind for her?

 

I got the dodge mudflaps with the silver ram and wheel well liners. I'll be installing those this weekend. I'll be getting nurf bars and chrome bug shield next. I uploaded a tiny pic of my almond ram and have no idea where it went.

 

Congrats on your new Ram, I also have just recently bought a new Ram, It now has 1800 miles on it. I am not new to mopar though. I currently own a 2001 Durango with the 4.7. previously I owned a 74 Charger that had the 460 Hemi in it. although the Charger came with the 318 from the factory. I hope that you no longer have problems with your new truck. I have had no probs with my wifes Durango.
Good luck

 

Got my 04 Ram in December. The only problem I had was some paint comming off the bed in the wheel well. The dealer repainted both wheel wells. It looks good now. I think your problem was a fluke.
