Consumer Description
I BOUGHT 2012 RAM 1500 IN AUGUST 2018, I MAKE PAYMENT. THIS PAST APRIL VIBRATION AND HESITATION GOT WORSE, I HAD PLUGS REPLACED , DIDN'T HELP. FOUND OUT THAT LIFTERS NEEDED REPLACED AND CAMSHAFT. I SPENT $217 ON PLUG REPLACEMENT AND ADDITIONAL $4500 TO REPLACE LIFTERS CAMSHAFT. ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON NOW IT'S SAYING VAPORATION LEAK. I HAVE READ THAT THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF CUSTOMERS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND NO RECALL FROM CHRYSLER. THIS IS MY FIRST DODGE, THIS WILL BE MY LAST DODGE UNLESS I GET COMPENSATION FROM CHRYSLER. I KNOW THIS TRUCK IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY, BUT CHRYSLER HAS TO KNOW THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE HEMI , I WAS TOLD AT A DEALER THIS WAS COMMON IN HEMI , NO ONE TOLD ME THAT WHEN I BROUGHT I STILL OWE ON THIS TRUCK , PLUS I'M OUT $4667 THAT I CAN'T GET BACK IF I TRADED, ONLY HAD 8 MONTHS WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THIS DOESN'T INCLUDE THE THE VAP PROBLEM ON THE COST.
