INTERIOR LIGHTING
A FEW DAYS AFTER PURCHASING THE TRUCK I NOTICED ONE OF THE CEILING COURTESY / MAP LIGHTS WAS NOT WORKING AND THE NEXT TIME IT CAME ON IT WOULD BE ON AT HALF POWER. IT EITHER DOESN'T COME ON OR COMES ON AT HALF POWER. I VISITED THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES FOR THEM TO TRY AND LOCATE A NEW MAP LIGHT. THE DEALER AFTER SEVERAL TRIPS TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T FIND THE NEEDED PARTS AND DIDN'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO TELL ME. I HAVE CONTACTED RAM CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMEROUS TIMES AS WELL AS THE BBB OVER THE PAST 6 MONTHS CONCERNING THIS PROBLEM. RAM CUSTOMER SERVICE STATES THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO REPAIR MY 2013 2500 RAM TRUCK WHICH COST $60,000 AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN ANY PARTS WILL BECOME AVAILABLE. ONE OF MY CONCERNS IS THIS LIGHT MUST HAVE A ELECTRICAL SHORT OF SOME SORT EITHER IN WIRING OR THE LIGHT ITSELF THEREFORE MAY BE A FIRE HAZARD. RAM APPEARS TO CARE LESS. *JS

SUSPENSION
WHILE DRIVING MY 2011 RAM POWER WAGON FROM SPEEDS OF 35MPH TO 70 MPH ANY SMALL BUMPS IN THE HIGHWAY OR EXPANSION JOINTS IN THE ROAD PUT THIS VEHICLE INTO AN EXTREMELY VIOLENT WOBBLE WITH UNCONTROLLABLE STEERING ISSUES. I IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP AND DEALERSHIP HAD SAID THEY NEVER HEARD OF THIS, THEY AGREED TO REPLACE THE STEERING DAMPER AND THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. I'M A PROFESSIONAL DRIVER OF FIRE APPARATUS AND HAVE NEVER BEEN AS DEEPLY CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY AS NOW DRIVING THIS TRUCK. I LOOKED UP ON THE INTERNET AND THERE ARE COUNTLESS WOBBLE ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH RAM 2500 AND RAM 3500 TRUCKS. I AM NOT POSITIVE IF MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP UNDERSTANDS THE SEVERITY OF THE SITUATION. THIS CAN AND WILL RESULT IN INJURY OR MUCH WORSE, DEATH. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS ISSUE IN A TIMELY MANNER TO PROTECT NOT JUST THE THOUSANDS OF DODGE OWNERS BUT THE INNOCENT BYSTANDERS ON THE SAME ROAD WITH THIS TRUCK. *JS
