Consumer Description

The ram 1500 'tick' as it has become known has started on my vehicle. Just like other reports, it would seem the bolts on my exhaust manifold have snapped causing exhaust to leak into the cabin of the truck. The truck doesn't throw any warnings for it, and the only reason it was discovered was because of a slight 'ticking' sound that can be heard on engine startup. The vehicle does not have any recalls for the issue despite numerous reports of a similar problem. I took the vehicle to a service center where they confirmed the issue. No doubt, exhaust leaking into the cabin of a vehicle poses serious safety risks. The vehicle is currently available for inspection but will be getting fixed in the coming days.
