Wow 38000 miles and the truck is going bad

Not happy as my 2016 ram is not even at 40 k miles ...and Is now having electrical issues , dodge refuses to do anything about this even after making the call to customer service, unless i put out 150 dollars just to analyze the issue i will either freeze or die in the heat .....evidently theres already been recalls 16 if im not mistaken, that were supposed to have been handled on my last oil service, Did not have any issues until shortly after last service when recall s were done....what next ? i have to ask myself......how can i recommend this vehicle to anyone .....if dodge chrysler will not stand behind their products , maybe ill trade it in for a Japanese vehicle? Would dodge / Chrysler corporate care to call me ? I guess we will see 👀

Worst vehicle and most expensive

At least 5 second delay to accelerate. Dealer says that’s normal. I would never recommend this engine! It’s definitely a safety issue. It gets worse every month.

The most reliable, quiet and comfortable truck.

I was never a Ram fan until I drove one for a week, was hooked and went out and purchased one. I’ve owned them all, and this is by far the most reliable and comfortable truck I have ever owned. Eco Diesel provides plenty of power while still giving you 25 mpg.

Such a great truck!

I purchased the RAM with the ecodiesel engine and it’s performing better with fuel economy than my four-cylinder Kia Sorento. It also has a tremendous amount of power so towing my boat is not an issue. I love this truck.

LOVE My RAM 1500 Sport

My RAM 1500 Sport is my favorite vehicle I have ever owned - it is powerful, luxurious, comfortable, loaded with tech, and does everything I need it to do.

Performs likeva champ, rides like a Cadillac.

This Ram is the nicest truck I've owned or ridden in. The Laramie is gorgeous inside and out. Every creature comfort you can imagine and it rides and drives like a luxury vehicle. Ram really outdid themselves on these higher end model trucks. The 5.7L is also a tried and true motor. It gets up and goes when you need it to. Absolutely LOVE this truck.

Cleanest used vehicle I've ever purchased

I have never had a vehicle that had all the bells and whistles. It feels good to drive around and have people look at your vehicle.
