problem #1

2005Jun 30

Ram 1500 SLT Plus 5.9L V8`

  • Automatic transmission
  • 36,000 miles

Because I was religous about doing maintenance, this issue was corrected under warranty (twice.) Basically, the differential parts just ground themselves up. twice in 7 years dodge replaced most of the moving parts in the rear diff - under warranty. I have 100K drivetrain and am 86K miles - planning to sell and buy non-american. No more dodge - they never fail to disappoint, repeatedly, in my experience.
