    2020 Ram 5500, metallic noise from front

    Got the complete compressor, tried it out and it works fine. Truck is at the mechanic I told him to try cranking without the belt. He's dragging his feet, like everyone else.

    2020 Ram 5500, metallic noise from front

    I've got 106000 miles and the chance of winning in court are slim and none, just got to hope they find out what's wrong before I go broke.

    2020 Ram 5500, metallic noise from front

    I'm in the hotshot business and I go all over the place, I can't afford to break down somewhere on a 2 lane road without phone service. Then the expense of a wrecker and getting my load delivered, if I'm loaded, lot's of factors to consider when taking the truck out knowing that there may be a...

    2020 Ram 5500, metallic noise from front

    No we checked that, stays about the same. It goes from the loud rattling in the video when it's cold to chirping sound when it warms up.

    2020 Ram 5500, metallic noise from front

    I've got it at another mechanic, he's the one that replaced the AC compressor, said he would have it ready in a couple of days but still hasn't told me what is wrong. Can't wait for another month for a dealership to tell me they can't find anything. I tried a stethoscope and couldn't locate the...

    Metallic noise from front of 2020 Ram 5500, 6.7

    Thanks I'll tell my mechanic, I've got someone working on it. I've already had the belt tensioner, belt, a/c compressor changed, I even tried putting a little grease on the belt. Hope I get a fix soon or I'll be broke.

    Metallic noise from front of 2020 Ram 5500, 6.7

    https://photos.app.goo.gl/PtkR4epWwQLCVFAL8 Been to dealership 3 times and the last time the mechanic said to keep driving until noise got worse. It gets quieter when the engine warms up. Looks like it can't be diagnosed until it breaks down. Has anyone else had this problem? Been out of work...

    Tire wear on 2020 Ram 5500

    I've got a new Ram 5500 with 16k miles, it's got steer tires on front and drive s on the back, 19.5 aluminum rims. I've rotated twice from side to side and noticed that the front tires are wearing to the outside. I took it to the dealership and they checked the alignment and said it was fine...
