I love my truck but hate the problems... Too expensive to repair... Great truck, but has persistent cooling / overheating problems. Dealer can't seem to know what the problem is. Just spent over $700. / I took it in for overheating, towed it in / they said I needed plugs, coil and injectors flushed. $729.00 / $550. in labor alone. / came to pick it up: What about the overheating issue? I asked. oh, we can check it for you: it'll be another $99.00 diagnostic service. I said, I already paid for the diagnostics, they say: No that was for the rough idling. I said: It wasn't rough idling until it started overheating... / needless to say, I was t'd off.
I asked the mechanic, how are you going to find out what's wrong? he said, we'll beat the c**p out of it until we find something. Not very reassuring, I took the truck home and I'm still trying to figure out what to do with it. It overheats worse than before, now.

 

The guys in the third generation Ram section may be able to help,
