2007 Dodge Ram Pickup 3500 review from North America
"Needs the bugs worked out"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Check engine light is a constantly on.
General comments?
The truck runs and drives very nice for the most part. It has a ton of power for pulling our large trailer. HOWEVER, the check engine light is constantly coming on.
This truck has only 3000 miles on it, and we have taken it to the dealer 6 times! The computer has been replaced twice already. The truck needs constant software updates.
When the check engine light comes on, the truck will not drive normally and often needs to be towed. This in inconvenient at best right now that the truck is under warranty, but I cannot imagine the costs involved if this continues past the warranty period.
I like the truck a lot when it is not at the dealer and I can actually drive it. I really hope Dodge can figure out these computer issues. It is a common problem with these trucks if you look around on the internet.
