Ram 2500 SLT 5.9L Diesel

  • Automatic transmission
  • 161,000 miles

Purchased truck in 2006, driving off the lot complained about the lack of air flow/cooling, especially on the passenger side. Complained many times, even while getting A/C compressor changed 2 times it did not help wit h the flow, Finally, after @8 years, dealer decided the fix was to change the entire A/C housing under the dash, which includes evaporator coil, which of course was a few years out of warranty. Dodge junked this whole housing in the 2007 models, and this is what they finally installed in my 2006 truck, 7 years later, out of warranty!

Ram 2500 Laramie 5.7L

This was a minor issue. However, this is one of many issue I have encountered with my Dodge. I had to take it to the dealer to change out a duct flap.
