Great Truck Just A Few Issues

I have the '15 Reg Cab Ram 1500 V6 Black/out Edition. My Ram was affordable. Also, I love the mileage and the overall look. It just has issues very early on. I have owned the truck since Feb '15 and have 5k miles. My first problem I had was at 400 miles after my radio just stopped working for about 2 days. After 2 days it luckily started working, well kind of. Next after around 600 miles my front bumper has blemished paint spots that look like the sun "burnt" this area. My truck is regularly kept under a car port and washed/waxed w/ quality product. Oh & my Bluetooth doesn't work anymore and Pandora capability is a joke!

This is the second NEW ram truck we have owned. The first was a 2011 4x4 crew cab that we loved but was part of the huge recall where the back ends need replaced, which really put a bad taste in our mouth since we had been driving this truck pulling campers and boats for many years with children on trips, knowing they should have recalled this years ago and knowing we weren't "safe" was a bad feeling. Dealership said it would be 8-10 weeks without our truck to repair, really?? So we traded it in! Bought a new 2015 4x4 big horn with the longer bed, love it!! But each time we started it up a big cloud of white smoke blew out the tale pipes. We contacted salesman, who said to put first 1000 miles on it and if it's still did it to bring it in. At 5,000 miles husband does first oil change and only 2 quarts of oil comes out (it holds 7 quarts)!!! We take it to dealership explain this, they hook it up and say "it has to be water vapor, nothing's wrong with truck". We continue to drive it, we are adding a quart of oil every 1000-1500 miles! That's a lot of oil this truck is burning!! We now have 10,000 miles and decide they are going to figure this out. We take it in to dealer, nothing leaking oil outside engine so they mark the oil level and tell us to drive it 1,000 miles and bring it back in so they can "document how much it's burning then send a request to Chrysler dodge fiat to see if they will allow them to replace or repair engine". So now we play their game... I think it's ridiculous! We pay $45,000 for a brand new truck that burns oil like a 20 year old truck?!?! Just to be told they may or may not fix the problem... As much as we have loved our 2 ram trucks, if they don't fix this under warranty, it will be the last dodge Chrysler anything we own!!!!

2015 Ram 1500 Reg Cab 5.7l Hemi

I traded in my 2008 ram 1500 5.7l Hemi SLT for a new 2015 Ram 1500 Reg Cab W/Hemi. I bought the Black express package, emblems painted body color, delete Hemi badging, SL model. I have almost 4k miles on the truck and no issue's so far. Only small problem I have is with the door's staying open. The lower hinge's have shallow grooves and on my slanted driveway I have to make sure to hold the door at the second groove (all the way open) or else the door will slam shut if this is not done. My wife and I feel this is a saftey issue and I am not sure if all door hinges on the Ram truck's are made this way. I will follow-up on this issue with the dealer. Other than that I really like my 2015 Ram,

To me, the biggest Ram selling point is the smooth ride. The Ram is the only truck that has a coil rear suspension. Everyone else has a leaf-spring rear suspension. The ride is terrific. You do give up about a 1000 lbs in towing capacity and 100 lbs in rear cargo. But ask your yourself, "How often do I tow 10,000 lbs?" For most people the answer is never. But you will enjoy that ride every mile. It is a tremendously better ride over Ford or Chevy or Nissan. I have owned them all. My last two trucks have been Dodge. Another point is the Rambox. It is a space saver for me and worth every penny. I use my trucks on a farm and I have towed 10,000 lbs upon occasion. Ram gets he work done and I ride in style and comfort. My 2010 Dodge had 145,000 miles when I sold it and never a problem. My 2015 has 80,000 on it now and no issues. I do service my trucks right on schedule and it pays off.

I have a 2015 Ecodiesel with 59000 miles. It has towed an 18 ft car hauler and a 12 ft Dump trailer about 25K of those miles. It has not had one single problem since new. The fuel mileage beats the EPA estimate and it is very comfortable to drive. I have driven it a 1000 mi in a day and found it as comfortable as any car. My favorite features are the towing mirrors, the shift knob, USB ports, interior storage, driving feel and the way it looks. I have owned many Chrysler products and they have all been very trouble free. UPDATE: It now has 71,000 miles and still not one problem. It still has the original brake pads. I change my own oil and it is one of the easiest oil changes around. I buy the Rotella T6 from Walmart and the Mopar filter from amazon and the cost for an oil change is about 85.00 dollars. I sold this pickup because I found a great deal on a Big Horn Eco Diesel with 22k miles. It now it has 49k miles and has been just as trouble free as my first one. As soon as the Eco Diesel comes out in the new 1500 I plan to upgrade. I love the Eco Diesel. I now have 60.000mi on my second Ecodiesel with no issues. It has been across the US twice (9000 mi each time) it is smooth and quiet and runs close to 700mi on a tank of fuel. My best mileage has been 30+ and my worst was driving across South Dakota 84 mph with a 40 mph head wind. It dropped it down to 21mpg. Now have 70k miles. Still love it and no issues. Now have 76K still no issues. The only thing I have done is oil changes and replace the fuse for the air suspension. Love the truck.
