Consumer Description

2017 RAM 3500 DIESEL. STRONG EXHAUST SMELL IN CAB DURING COLDER TIMES. THE WIND IS NOT BLOWING IN THE DIRECTION WHERE THE HEAT INTAKE CAN DRAW THE SMELL IN. THE SMELL IS VERY OVER POWERING. I HAVE HAD IN THE DEALERSHIP 3 SEPARATE TIMES WITH NO LUCK IN THEM DOING ANYTHING. THEY ARE 'NOT ABLE TO SMELL IT', HOWEVER EACH TIME I START IT AT THE DEALERSHIP I CAN SMELL THE EXHAUST IN THE CAB. THE SMELL CONTINUES UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS AT SUSTAINED HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE SMELL IS SO BAD THAT THE WINDOWS MUST BE OPEN.
