Ram 1500 Big Horn 5.7L

  • Manual transmission
  • 121,000 miles

I get a check engine light coming on every time I use the A/C or Deforst, code is P0481. I've brought to two different dealers at different times and they can't figure it out!

problem #1

Ram 1500 SLT 4.6L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 32,000 miles

I purchased a used 2011 Dodge Ram with a remainder of warranty. When I was towing my Lite Trailer (appx 2200lbs) I traveled approximately 1 hour, and everything was fine. Suddenly the temp gauge showed high and the digital read out read high. I pulled over and opened the hood, everything was fine, no steam, overflow, etc. fluid levels were fine. It stayed high, for the duration of our trip. I took the truck to a local dodge dealer for the warranty repair. They stated it looked like the lower fan was not working, but without a code, they could not repair or replace anything. I have stopped driving it, because the warranty runs out at 36000 miles and I want the repair covered. I do not think it was a fluke, I think the dealer doesn't want to repair it.
