Cooling system seemed to not be performing as well at it should be. During warmer days the AC would need to be on at full blast to keep the interior cool at all, air coming from vents never really got "cold". Found that vehicle has a TSB for poor cooling performance. Had dealer take a look, they stated that cooling was working as expected, nothing done or replaced.

If the vehicle sat for many days, in warm (summer) weather, out in the sun, with less than half a tank of gas, it might need an unusual amount of time to prime the fuel system and / or crank (over 5 seconds) before it would successfully run. Hasn't been a problem since I changed up my parking situation so it can be in my garage if it's going to sit a few days. I understand there's an ECU update that would be covered by 8 year / 80k mile emissions warranty that probably would fix this if it ever recurs.

experienced water in the diesel fuel of my 2017 eco diesel ram.. Dealer suggested station fault. Drop tank, clean tank, fuel lines high pressure pump replaced at dealer suggestion. Truck runs fine after repair. $ months later during a cold spell, The flapper of fill tube would not open while attempting to fuel up. At home found ice preventing flapper from movement. Applied heat gun to melt. when flapper opened found ice at lower section of fill tube. Heat gun with shop vac inside fill tube to prevent water from running into tank. Expressed this to dealer, they had no clear answer. 1 week later we were expecting rain, I folded some paper towels and placed inside fuel door, the next morning paper towels were soaked. The fuel door provides a lousy seal, and the fill tube cap,(which is nothing but a plastic plug insert had water in it. Ram has a poor design here, and 4 months earlier it cost me $3200. Call Customer support, then mopar support, they say nothing they can do without recall or service bulletin. I purchased on amazon a fill tube plug with an oring built on it made of aluminum. It does provide a tight seal for now. Working on a new fuel fill door gasket next. Owners beware of this problem.

I had the exhaust tick. So I checked the manifold bolts and indeed, one of them was broken. I bought the gasket kit and a new set of bolts. As an aside, the bolt broke flush with the aluminum block. I drilled it and used an extractor. The extractor broke off. I reverted to grinding the bolt out of the hole. I damaged the threads in the block. I tapped the hole and it didn't have enough left to put the threads back enough to hold. I cried. I used a Helicoil insert which I thought was pretty sketchy but it is holding. Exhaust tick is still there LOL.

Air suspension will not work if temperatures drop below about 10 degrees. The air leaves the suspension and you end up riding on the bumpers (very bumpy ride). This is a reoccurring problem every winter. This winter time was spent trying to identify if there was a leak in the system. This happened a few times when it was still in warranty and the dealer never could find a fix either. Something/somewhere it is losing integrity. I live in MN. It is below 10 degrees F for nearly a month. It is enough to eliminate air suspension as an option from my next truck purchase.

Ram 1500 had low heat output when using heater. It took over half an hour for temperature to get comfortable enough to turn heat down from HI temp setting. This became noticeable in the below zero temps here in Minnesota. Center console was extremely cold--sometimes frost would form in the storage area. Dealer said thermostat was stuck in the open position. They also checked vents on center console for obstructions and checked for air leaks into the cabin (none found.) The repair took two days because they needed to allow the truck to completely cool down overnight and then they couldn't find a thermostat anywhere in the Twin Cities. Took them another day to find the thermostat for the V6 engine. Heat output is improved but not as good as in previous winters. For this reason I'm putting down repair not successful. Replaced thermostat that was stuck open to try to fix problem with heat output.

Fiat-Chrysler America refused to cover the DEF repairs, even though they say that they are covered in the warranty manual. The EPA also concurred that they are required to be covered. FCA refused despite the EPA insistence. I eventually got FCA to pay for half of the repairs. My only other recourse would have been a lawsuit. So instead I sold the truck and vowed to never buy another Fiat-Chrysler product.

Bought my truck in to possibly fix my driving light problem which are also my high beams!. Found out there was a recall and it was a wire in my steering wheel. Was told was probable TIPM problem, and have no warranty. more to story! Possibly TIPM problem. Because of my driving lights not working. Now have found out why dealer will not work, because of big huge law suit pending and a big danger. More to story. Both daytime running lights/ hi beams hat to be hard wired, because both of the plug ins were shot. Too much to replace so they were pig tailed together. Problem solved ☺️
