“Cooling fan shroud is deteriorating causing the fan blades to scrape it. My truck is out of warranty but still only has 40,000 miles on it. I had to remove the shroud to prevent further damage and or a breakdown while driving. It appears to have partially melted with the expected high temperatures. I have had no overheating incidents to cause this.”

“Cab brake light went bad after 5 years and the interior of truck was flooded with rain water. Water was running out of headliner into the dashboard, radio and electrical components. After researching this issue and speaking to the dealership, this has been an ongoing issue for Ram vehicles. I now have mold set up in my vehicle but consider myself lucky that a fire didn't occur.”

“Integrated trailer brake controller does not apply full voltage to electric trailer brakes. I had an 8% grade to decend and when I stopped to check my trailer brakes I could easily overpower them when set to max gain and 100% applied with slider. When I got home I researched and found I am not the only Ram owner experiencing this. When I checked the voltage I could only get 9.3v on light electric setting and only 7.4v on heavy electric. Towing the same trailer as my father's 2012 Ram with integrated trailer brake contoller I have to use 6.5 gain setting vs his 3.5 gain setting.”
