Used 2021 Ram 1500 Consumer Reviews
Three Years In and no Issues
I purchased a Ivory 2021 Ram 1500 Laramie Crew Cab 4x4 with the 5.7 Hemi (no e-torque), level 2 and night package. 10000 miles on it now, 1800 of them towing a travel trailer weighing 6500 pounds. It’s been a perfect vehicle. Not one issue to date. 22 mpg on the highway. It’s a very comfortable cruiser. Even my wife loves driving it. Update Feb 2024. Other than new tires no issues. Still love driving it. Still great fuel economy for a truck. The only thing that could make me part with it is a 2025 Ram Charger.

Engine Stalls
I have a 2021 Ram 1500 Laramie v.8 with etourque. Same issue as others in that its stalled twice now while driving and I almost caused a major crash. I have logged a case with the NHTSA, hoping they hurry up and figure out what is wrong. Brought to dealer, similar to other cases dealer cant do anything about it because there are no error codes. SCARY! How do I put my wife and kids in this going forward. Under 2k miles! I agree with positive ratings on comfort, was a F150 guy before feel like this rides better, more comfortable and stylish but not worth the risk!

Mercedes of the trucks
Just replaced my 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 with the 2021 Ram 1500 ecodiesel. Nothing come close to the RAM in term of interior quality and comfort and the ride quality ( steel suspension) Put my first 1000 miles and my fuel average is 24.8 MPG, on HWY I get solid 28 MPG with my 3.92 gears. I thought I will never love trucks and their ride but RAM changed it. Excellent job RAM team!!!

pos
doesn't deserve 1 star drove a 2021 Laramie off the lot friday at 4:30---got 4 k on it and dash said emergency brake on--nope--wasnt--turned it off -restarted-glitch gone-go back to dealership -closed. Next day moved it for the plow-battery light on--ok time for a hwy ride, maybe a dud battery--go 10 k-engine light, blind-spot warning, oil light, then lose heat, radio--then steering locked going 90--then engine dies-skids to a halt in the right lane--10 mins later started and limped to side of the road...minus 20 and 4 hour wait for tow truck which i almost had to pay for since truck was so new info wasn't in the system yet---can you say very goddamn unhappy
450 miles and in the shop/updated
It started out great than right before I owned the car for two weeks all alerts popped up up for esc along w front and rear park assist. Unfortunately it didn’t stop there. It couldn’t longer shift while hitting 7k rpm. It began to smoke from underneath, only to notice leaking transmission fluid. Contact Ram customer which gave me a case number bc I dealer can’t find the issues. It is a 2021 LARAMIE with only 450 miles. Should’ve went w F-150. At 5800 miles the truck completely died and spent 4 weeks at the dealer where they replaced the battery pack and MGU. Not what I would expect but let’s hope this resolved all the issues.
