I'm at the point where I just don't trust ANYTHING our government does, nor do I believe the reasons they give for their actions. What I see, is another move to destroy industry, bankrupt corporations, and expand the power of .gov into every facit of life.
So you think this is all made up and a corporation the size of Fiat/Chrysler just went along to be swell guys?
I understand your dislike of the Government, I really do. But that's just not logical Sam.
Besides, Obama bailed Chrysler out; now he wants to put them out of business? Which one is it?
i had a 05 1500 quad cab slt 4x4 with the 4.7L gasser. bought it used with 68k on it for hunting, camp, etc. without a doubt, the biggest POS i every owned. and i've owned some doozies. the list of stuff that went wrong in under 90k miles is shameful. i would not buy another dodge truck on a bet.
I talked to an owner this morning who has a truck with this issue. They had it 'repaired' once only to have start again in a few months. The parked in the field and disabled it. They contacted Fiat America and were basically told to go away.
Mine was one of those. They gave me $987,000.00 for mine because of the mileage I have been getting...
Kirk, mine reads the same. 😛
I have an '09 Ram 1500 Hemi with 120 k at present. Went through a terrible steering wheel "shake" some time back but the third new set of tires seemed to cure it or maybe I've just become so accustomed to it I don't notice it anymore.
Meaning that until I get a recall notice from Chrysler or Ram regarding my new 2015 regular cab Ram Hemi Express 8 spd w/ 3:21 rear axle for any front end issues,,,I'm not even going to worry about it.
So far with 6500 and change miles, no problems. Thing is a dream to drive, is fun to drive, handles great, sounds great,,,and it is fast.
Oh yeah......Especially after a cold air intake and a new cat back exhaust system were installed. Now, is far less restrictive on both the engine air flow intake and the exhaust. Better acceleration response and better gas mileage too.
Now estimated that I'm running between 420 and 430 HP. Up from the factory 395 HP. More torque too. Maybe a Diablo plug in superchip is next?
Vs the earlier years in question, the newer Ram trucks have been improved dramatically in all areas imo, especially with the interiors.

Considering you died and were brought back to life a few yrs ago I will make this easy on you.. Only trucks between the yrs 2009-2012 are involved in this buy back program. The death wobble does not occur until around 50,000 miles. So your truck being a 2015 is not even being considered and at 6500 miles you are 43,500 miles from any major problems...

..........Well 79 (S)chitts!!!....Very well aware of the years for recall. Happen to know a few others with '012 and newer Rams with 6 cyls and Hemis, some with high miles who have had no issues. Just normal maintainence............So you can hold your breath until I have some major issues. I'll let you know. Besides, I not only have the std factory powertrain warranty but have an extended one as well.
And from what I understand, Ram had completely redesigned their front suspensions. So I'm not worried in the least.
Not the same trucks as were the earlier Rams now being recalled.
But thank you for your wonderful insight anyway....
