2001 Dodge Ram Pickup 2500 quad cab review from North America
"Junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Since I have owned the truck I have been back to the dealer about 15 times for peeling paint on the tailgate, leaking transmission, drivers side mirror was replaced three times because it shakes at highway speeds. By the way it still shakes. I have noises coming out of the transmission in reverse and gages that go out intermittently. That was the minor stuff. After 14,800 miles the engine developed a loud tapping noise. I brought it to the dealer and they replaced all the lifters. That did not fix the noise. They then replaced the engine. That also did not fix the noise. They now are saying that the noise is a normal fuel injector noise? Hello Lemon Law!!! Talk about quality control problems.
General comments?
Don't buy any Dodge products no matter how good they look!!!
