    HID vs LED

    Related to this topic- The inside of my driver side headlight lens is not a little fogged but like a rainforest on my 2015. If I go in to replace lamps what can I do to help that? I can't see a crack in the lens.

    Unhappy with Performance after Emissions Recall Update

    I hear what you are saying but when a consumer goes to a Ram dealer we should not have to sort out who made the engine, electronics, tires, etc. The truck we choose to buy is the sum of its parts and Ram has to own all of those selections. So far this whole process has been an exercise to...

    Software round 2

    I have a 2015 and maybe my perception of how bad it was after the first software flash is worse than what somebody else would think. However, I say the reflash did make mine much better, pretty much back to mileage and acceleration like before. With the first update if I was towing a small piece...

    EGR recall

    My truck is a 2015 so apparently they are not actually dealing with the 14-15 models before moving on to newer years.

    EGR recall

    I just talked to my dealer and they still do not have the new design EGR coolers available. At least mine is not leaking yet.

    EGR Cooler

    My 2015 had the first software update which caused the problems we have discussed here and then the second one which seems to have taken care of the issues. Now I am waiting on the EGR cooler fix. My dealer tells me they still do not have the replacement cooler yet. Anybody else out there having...

    FCA letter 2020

    It has been just over a month since I got the new update done. Mileage has been steadily creeping up, it is in the 24s now on my normal mix of driving. It was around 22 after the initial update. The throttle lag is gone. I have not seen a letter from FCA announcing that this software is...

    FCA letter 2020

    I had the software update to improve the issues with the first update last Tuesday. So far, I have not noticed the cold start throttle lag yet. According to the dash readout, the mileage is pretty much holding the same as before Tuesday, fluctuating from the high 21s to the high 23s. Before the...

    FCA letter 2020

    Also, the dealer still has no indication of when the EGR cooler might be showing up.

    FCA letter 2020

    I got the software update, New P/N 68280881AP, installed today. I had the same experience in terms of the dealer not having any idea about this but armed with the info from this forum I convinced them to hook it up and there it was. I can't imagine why FCA would delay rolling this out since...

    Unhappy with Performance after Emissions Recall Update

    That is pretty funny, a small percentage report a throttle lag! I wonder what that number is, maybe 98%? I think I have about the same confidence in this fix as I did in the first one. I can't see how the dealers could delete the original one since that would put FCA back in the situation of...

    Unhappy with Performance after Emissions Recall Update

    Probably a stupid question but does the dealer furnish you a comparable truck while your vehicle is out of commission? I can't run my business for very long without my truck. I don't have a significant coolant loss yet and I toyed with the idea of trading the truck in to avoid that problem but...

    Unhappy with Performance after Emissions Recall Update

    Do we know if the recall concerning the failing EGR cooler is a result of the AEM flash or just an unrelated problem? I am amazed that FCA would inform us that our trucks might catch on fire, that they do not have any idea when they will have a fix and that they are ok with dumping this problem...

    Unhappy with Performance after Emissions Recall Update

    ramraiders, did you get anything done to improve your truck as a result of contacting top care? I had another near miss yesterday trying to tow a small load out of my driveway and if FCA has a solution they should be getting it out there.

    Unhappy with Performance after Emissions Recall Update

    Just wondering if FCA "Top Care" responds any better than the Ecodiesel hotline, the Ram dealers, the NHTSA, or the attorneys that are representing us? I have reached out to all and gotten zero satisfaction and near-zero response. Do you think a few of us will have to be in serious accidents...
