JUNK & RECALLS GALORE
madmom, Ashburn, VA, 09/30/2015
2013 Ram 3500 Tradesman 4dr Crew Cab 4WD LB (5.7L 8cyl 6A)
TOO MANY RECALLS FOR A 2013 TRUCK!!! CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WHEN TRUCK NEEDS "COMPUTER UPDATES" SO OFF TO DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND AGAIN... NOW AT 37K Miles, something caused the serpentine belt to break with such force it broke the fan into pieces, breaking the radiator while pulling the horse trailer with 2 horses. Now it is back at a dealership again, this time 6 hours away from … where we live. Been there since 9/19, it is now 9/30/15...
I was just informed the PARTS ARE STILL NOT IN!!! of course none of this is covered under "basic warranty."
They want you to pay out the nose for their extended warranty so when the $59.00 serpentine belt breaks - you might be covered.
NO MORE CHRYSLER PRODUCTS FOR US! RODEO SPONSOR OR NOT!

2013 Ram 3500 Tradesman 4dr Crew Cab 4WD LB (5.7L 8cyl 6A)
6.7 L Diesel (but it isn’t a review menu choice) automatic trans. Big dually but on highway steady gets 21 mpg, never worse than 15 in town. Has never broken down or been in shop for anything but a couple of warranty recall campaigns and regular service. Bought it used in 2015 and as of 10/18 and 59700 miles a winner. Didn’t get all the bells but a few whistles. Tradesmen issue with … creature comforts built to haul work and family. Very roomy interior for everyone comfortably. Fits in garage door and it is a 4x4, though my garage is deeper than most. Out of the five new vehicles and four used ones I purchased over the years, this is my favorite.
