Wonder if it's like the recall on my old truck where it was months before the dealers had the parts.

I have a 2013 model 3500 and I've had more recalls on this truck than any I have ever owned so I guess one more won't matter.

Steering issue is just a loose nut behind the wheel

I like my Ram but it is the recall king. Up to 8 so far.

They say it is just a jam nut that can come loose. The fix is if it meets torques specs, to weld it in place, and if it has come loose already, then they replace the assembly! How about they show us exactly what nut they are talking about, and the torque, and we can check for ourselves? I have 51,000 miles on my 2016 RAM 3500 long bed dually, and 30,000 miles were towing
the Monty! Seems like it would have come loose by now?

I have a 2015 3500 and almost two years ago Ram did a upgrade/patch to the Uconnect that messed up the back up camera. All I get it the run around from Ram, FCA and Uconnect and promises for future corrections. Sorry I ever did the patch. This is really pathetic.

My neighbor just put his 13 Ram out to pasture. It sat in his shop and they drove it back and forth to the dealership for issues.

Just took my 2016 RAM 2500 to shop for steering nut recall. They checked the torque of the nut & needed to order parts, but parts aren't available yet. WOW, scarey.
