problem #6

Ram 1500 5.9L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 194,000 miles

I have owned the truck for 10 years and my chief complaint is there is always something going wrong with the truck. I am not much on ranting. But I am tired of this petty little stuff that is always going out. Today it is all the gauges have stopped working. I replaced the dash which cost me $500 and now the gauges do not work. Also, the starter is beginning to go bad. The AC fan motor is going bad. To get this up and running properly is going to be around another $1,000.00. Somebody please help. I have just been diagnosed with a disease about three lines too long to write.
