Ram 1500

  • 80,000 miles
The front doors leak air really bad going at highway speed you cannot carry a conversation with out yelling. Took it to dealer and they said it needed new door seals because of normal use and how old it was and the amount of miles on it had made the seals no longer working properly. I told them I had a 1996 with 210,000 on it and you could hear a pin drop it was so quite. They charged me $60 and did nothing for my problem!!
