Consumer Description

MY RAM 1500 BEGAN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE AIR RIDE SUSPENSION IN THE WINTER OF 2017 AND FINALLY STARTED TO WHERE IT WOULDN'T RAISE BACK UP WHEN IT WAS COLD. I HAD THE ENTIRE COMPRESSOR REPLACED JANUARY OR FEBRUARY OF 2018. NOW IN NOVEMBER OF 2018 I'M HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AGAIN. THE COMPRESSOR IS MAKING A WEIRD NOISE AS WELL AS THE DRIVER SIDE SUSPENSION SOUNDS LIKE IT'S RUBBING OR SOMETHING NOT GOOD. IT ONLY DOES THIS ONCE THE TEMPERATURE GETS IN THE 30S OR LOWER. ONCE IT GOES DOWN AND WON'T RAISE BACK UP THERE'S ONLY ABOUT A HALF INCH BETWEEN THE TIRE AND WHEEL WELL. NOT A CHEAP FIX AND DEFINITELY NOT WORTH KEEPING THE TRUCK IF THIS IS GONNA HAPPEN EVERY WINTER. WAS REPLACED AT MCHUGH DODGE JEEP IN ZANESVILLE, OHIO.
