I bought this truck used and did not notice the bubbling all around the edges of the hood. The hood is aluminum and the paint is not sticking to the primer or metal.
In talking with Dodge they said this truck was built for Canada. They also stated that they are permitted to use substandard materials for vehicles in Canada and that is Canada's choice.
This Truck is not under warranty anymore. I guess that is what you get for $40,000.00 Dodge as a company obviously believes that a vehicle of that price should only keep its paint for 5 years.
This certainly is a sad statement for American car companies. They may at one time have been a quality company but as they say "this too shall pass". Sadly we are witnessing the end of both, quality and ethics.
Perhaps a good European truck like Toyota :-) Good bye Dodge, we'll miss you :-(
Perhaps we should all get together and start a class action suit???
I guess I should be excited because I am getting a new hood, but I am disgusted that a truck that isn't even 2 years old is having body parts replaced. I am scared to own this thing long term. Already had a new engine and now body parts. Definitely my last Ram product.
With less than 8500 miles on my truck, I certainly shouldn't be seeing paint chips sown to the metal and scratches. I'm pretty loyal to Ram trucks, but I'm not very happy right now. I don't know if it's a paint issue or what's going on, but it's got more chips and scratches than vehicles I've had for years.
The paint started chipping off shortly after purchasing. We drive about a mile or so on a dirt road... BUT the chipping is only on one side of the truck. COWBOY DODGE says its not their problem...
The right rear tire split about an inch across the tire, again they said it was a rock impact and they were not responsible... The truck is still under warranty!!!!!!!!!!!!
We love the truck but it is rapidly becoming a BURDEN. We want something done A.S.A.P.
Thank you
