NHTSA Complaint #11552286 — 2021 RAM 1500

Exhaust Concern. In July 2023, the left exhaust manifold cracked down whole manifold, mileage was 51,369. This was repaired under 60,000 miles Powertrain Warranty. In October 2023, the right exhaust manifold cracked down whole manifold and is scheduled for repair when parts arrive, mileage is 54,850. This will also be repaired under 60,000 miles Powertrain Warranty. There were no warnings, only that we were aware of the tapping sound from cold start on both sides of vehicle. After looking online, we realized that other Ram owners were reporting that this is a problem and believe this should be a recall with a permanent fix for the problem. With our warranty about to expire, we are concerned that the repairs are like a band-aid that if/when this happens again we will have to pay to have repaired.
