Going through a construction zone on the freeway and couldn’t avoid it. Heard it rattling around until I was able to get off. Sounded like it cleared itself. Got home and was leaking tranny fluid. It’s at the shop now.

I really wanted to love this truck, but at just 1,500 miles, I’m at my absolute wit's end. You don't expect an $80,000 with that sheer number of quality control, and electrical issues from week one is completely unacceptable.

​

​Paint Defects: Paint is noticeably bubbling/blistering right where the passenger door closes and near the ram box.

​Battery Failures: Both batteries had to be completely replaced within the first week of ownership.

​Erratic Throttle Response: Severe power delivery issues. I’ll give it 50% gas, get almost nothing, and then suddenly all the power dumps at once at times.

​Camera Glitches: The front and 360-degree cameras constantly flash blue and black at times.

​Recalls: Already hit with two active recalls.

​The Dealer & RAM Care Nightmare:

The initial local dealer at Mayagüez Triangle threw a wave of software updates at it, but none of them fixed the camera issues. I brought them the pickup three times, one staying for a week and I got a awful jeep compass as a loaner, which I get is better than nothing.

​Thinking I'd get better treatment where I spent my money and got a service appointment, I drove 2 hours back to the dealership where I actually purchased the truck. When I arrived, they flat out told me they couldn't service it due to a "lack of personnel." Their compensation for wasting 4 hours of my round-trip drive and gas? A horrible free car wash and telling me to come back another day. This was at AutoCentro Caguas. Not even an apology. Still waiting for the service supervisor to call me back.

​To top it off, RAM Care has been useless. Their primary response so far is telling me to drive 3 hours away to a third different dealership just to get the truck inspected again, where I'll likely hear the exact same answer.

​At what point do I stop playing dealer roulette and start looking into Lemon Law and state buyback attorneys? Any advice on how to escalate past standard RAM Care reps would be hugely appreciated.

Edit: I have a 2026 RAM 1500 Rebel fully loaded.

2012 ram 1500 hemi detroit red wings edition 204k miles

Took my baby in for a low oil pressure light on startup and a check engine light. 0 signs of any issues otherwise besides the minor tck shes had for 2 years. Got the news today that its an internal engine issue and its no longer worth fixing. Shes been in the family for over a decade and will be with me till shes no longer able to drive.

Soon to come a 2018 ram that I will be bulletproofing the hemi on but I will forever miss my truck

Honestly went surprisingly smoothly, granted it was the passenger side. I removed the heat shield a week prior so that I could spray all of the bolts with Kroil daily before doing the job.

No broken bolts, 2 slightly rounded, but an extractor socket removed them very easily. Plenty of room to work, I was able to easily fit my 3/8 torque wrench on every bolt.

Quality of the BD manifold seems very high, though I do not recommend ordering directly from them due to excess lead times for shipping.

Hopefully never need to replace this one again, if the driver's side cracks (again) I will replace it with a BD manifold as well

Looking to get a new 2026 Ram Rebel. I had a 2020 Rebel with the Hemi v8 for a few years and do to unforeseen circumstances had to get rid of it. Loved that truck, it was my dream truck. Now looking to get back into a new 2026 and cant decide if to go with the trusted v8 again or the new 3.0L v6. I don't plan on towing anything, but am looking to modify to take it off road. Also been flirting with the idea of the RHO, seeing how they're just sitting on the lots and you can get them for good deal as it gets closer to the end of the year.

I have an 07 ram 1500 rst edition, from what I can find online these are some what rare but nothing crazy. As far as I know everything done to the truck was done before purchasing (flip kit to lower the rear, y pipe, custom interior) the front looks lowered but the previous owner said it wasn't, anyway im trying to replace the struts and shocks but im not sure if they are different bc its lowered. Anyone knows something pls lmk

Hello…. I’ve been searching everywhere for confirmation/details on if anyone has successfully added a Power Outlet to their Truck Bed for a 2026 RHO Level 1 that didn’t come with the Bed Utility Package? I’m see a lot of older threads from 2025 models discussing this, but haven’t seen any confirmation yet. Thanks

For context:
2020 Ram Laramie 1500
5.7 Hemi
22" Forplay Wheels
33" Venom Tires
2.5" Level
Vols liscense plate
Muffler delete

This is by FAR the best riding and driving truck I have had. I was initially worried after having a level kit it would be a little stiff. It's not. It outrides my wife's
Toyota Highlander. Great throttle response. I have towed several times with it with zero issues. I did have get a new receiver with a 2" rise for my bow fishing boat but other than that it's been great. I haven't got the mileage figured out just yet for towing cuz I'm only getting 8-10mpg towing my bass boat or my bow fishing boat.

I average around 18-20mpg running 74 on the interstate which is less than once a week at times. I only drive 2 miles to work. So I can go a long time on a full tank.

Interior shows zero wear and is still comfy. Love the heated and vented seats. But the room is amazing. My kids love sitting in the back and don't feel cramped at all. This is probably my favorite part of the truck is interior space.

Zero issues with tranny or motor. Just had first oil change. I've only but 4k miles on it since buying it

What color is your truck? Got a 26 rebel in Granite Crystal Metallic, love the color

Hay everyone, just finished a Manuel swap on my 2001 5.9 magnum.
The transmission and flywheel came from a donor truck 1996 1500 with the 5.2
I’m not sure why it’s running so badly, before the swap it ran perfect.
My only guess was the crankshaft position sensor but I bought a new one specifically for the nv3500 and it’s still running poorly.
Has anyone done this swap or had a similar issue and know what could be causing this?

First Ram after having Fords & Chevys, what'd i need to know? Anything I should get, aside from a tonneau cover?

Recently purchased a 2026 ram rebel 1500. Didn’t opt for any extended warranty. I’m in Canada so it seems my only legit option for adding extended comprehensive warranty is through mopar. And I believe here in Canada you have to purchase it through the dealerships. My question to fellow Canadians would be: what did you pay for your extended warranty?

(Mainly looking at extended comprehensive coverage to stack on the 3 year/60,000km factory warranty. For electronics and tech really)

Has anyone swapped their hood on the 5th gen? I have a 26 1500 and am wanting a more aggressive look. Any recommendations or things to look out for?

First ram. 2026 1500 rebel in Canyon Lake. Coming from a 2016 stick-shift Tacoma, this truck is huge. I love it.

Yesterday, I noticed my 1999 Ram 2wd 5.2 bogging down when I would accelerate. This morning, I couldn't even get it to go much over 30mph. I plugged in my OBD 2 scanner and it pulled a P0132, P0301, P0420 and Pending P0300, P0303, forgot 6th code, P0305, P0307, In that order. My scanner wouldn't erase the codes, so I pulled over in a parking lot to disconnect the negative terminal to reset the computer. The codes cleared, but the mechanical issue persisted. After doing some research, I decided to replace the upstream O2 sensor, per the code P0132, hoping the P0420 was caused by faulty readings from a faulty sensor. After replacing the upstream O2 Sensor, I'm still having the same issue. No codes yet, either. I didn't disconnect the battery while I performed the work. Could that have made a difference? Anybody else have similar issues? To answer some possible questions ahead of time, I bought it in 2023 with 68,000 miles on it. Somewhere between 70 and 75,000 miles I did a full tune up. It is currently just under 111,000 miles.

Hi guys and gals,

After a year of modding my ram, I wanted to share with your some pics of it.

Remaining to upgrade is :
- ported tb 87mm
- brake kit powerstop
- better 2 cat

My moto is usually : «  to live better, live hidden » but I read so much the forum that I wanted to share my baby.

Have a great day !

Anyone running the ReadyLift 3.5" SST 2.1 kit (Part #[62-19340](tel:62-19340)) on a 5th-gen Rebel (or '25 specifically)?

ReadyLift and the shop both gave me the green light, noting it'll net about 2.5 inches over factory height since the Rebel already sits an inch higher…but I'd love to hear from anyone actually driving this setup.

How are you liking the ride on the Falcon 2.1s, did you run into any UCA clearance headaches, and what size tires are you clearing? Appreciate any real-world feedback before I finalize the order.

2021 bighorn 6.4l v8 has the 8 speed transmission. 23k before taxes 100k miles.

Any one seen this pop up? I’m about to set up an appointment for the seatbelt recall but now I get this too…

Hey, got a 2026 ram 2500, truck only has 1500km on it so far, the sunroof makes a rattle noise which I believe is just the “ sun shade slider thing” when I push or hold it it seems to stop, but I’m also getting a lot of wind noise like the window doesn’t quite seal up good and tight, another else??

I have a 2019 ram 1500 with the smaller screen interface! It’s bugging me and I want to install the bigger screen, of course it is aftermarket and me not being the best electrician I’m wondering if it is an easy install or not?

Anyone done this before ?

Greetings community - Think its time to change the breaks on my 2019 1500 Laramie. What should I expect to pay for Breaks and rotors all around? I am in the northeast and i had one quote for $220 perside pads only, to $600 all-around + rotors to $1200 for everything. Figured i ask the community what they have paid and what's an average is. Alao Any pro tips or lessons learned from your experience or process?

Thanks in advance!
