Ram 1500 8-cyl

  • 9,000 miles
I purchased a Ram 1500, from day one there was problems the passenger door stayed ajar due to bad sensor says dealership leaving interior lights on at all times and would ding everytime I took off from a stop. They said that the cluster was bad so they replaced it with one that read in kilometers instead of mph. Later they replaced it with a cluster that read in mph. Transmission grinds gears when put in reverse and jumps when put into drive. Also transmission slips to lower gears when driving throwing me forward into the dash multiple times. Nothing has been successful in repairing the transmission as of yet although they say that they reprogrammed the transmission.

Transmission problems, looses reverse, makes a grinding noise, makes a loud whine sound when in drive. Oil pressure gauge never moves, cd player skips with new cd disks, radio crackles and stations sound like there far away when they are local.
