Radiator hose blew at 29000 miles. Blinkers don't work properly. And now the head gaskets blew at 36,800 miles and I don't even tow with it. Also the rear end hops real bad at highway speeds.

I still own my dodge ram since 2004, bought it from a salvage dealer main reason it's a salvage title because it auto thief. It had 26k miles and right now has 99k miles and no mechanical problems at all. Recently I only drive it on the weekends and use to work only. But it was my daily truck in my college years and cruise around town. It does have poor mpg I average 11 city and 13 hwy with combine 12 mpg mixed driving. I personally like the 3rd generation design 2002-2009, don't like the new design it resemble to much of Toyota tundra not that I don't like it but it just look alike. I'll try not to sell it no matter how high gas prices is. Is going to be classic soon.

I love the design of this truck but have had numerous problems, mostly small, except for one. Other reviews of this vehicle refer to "rear end hop at highway speeds". Dodge actually has a name for it.They call it "beaming". It is an engineering flaw with the suspension. They are aware that the truck vibrates at highway speeds but have no fix for it.I have just lemon lawed mine. I went to test drive a replacement vehicle and it does the same thing as my lemon. BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This has been an excellent truck. Problems: Computer crashed at about 3000 miles and everything in the truck stopped working. Took the dealer 4 days to get another computer installed. Got the high end infinity sound system that is horrible and a real waste of money. Gas milage 12 in town 17 highway---not good for a 2-wheel drive and a driver that tries hard to get good MPG out of their vehicle.

I bought this truck used in Nov 02. It now has 22,000 miles on it. So far, great truck at a great price. I bought this primarily due to the safety crash results so I could have peace of mind carrying my kids around town. I have taken it to Canada to fishing trips on rough dirt and gravel roads with no problems. It just keeps purring. I had already replaced my brakes on my GMC at this mileage point a couple of years ago. My 5 STAR Dodge Service Dealer has already given it the once over and so far it hasn't cost me another dime since I got it (I couldn't say that about my Ford Explorer and GMC Sonoma that I had in the past).
