Excellent point - had not considered it may have been driven from the rail yard - which is about 65-70 miles from the dealer. Probably what happened, although you would have thought the sales dude would have known that...
Picked up my new 3500 Limited yesterday, almost 9 months from when I placed the order back in late October. For some unexplained reason, it had 83 miles on it!!! Anyone else have this sort of delivery mileage when you picked up your truck? Still no answer on what the heck it, and many others...
Question on the Tread Lightly program. I signed-up a while ago, believing perhaps incorrectly, that the deal with RAM was either 1% or $500. As my negotiated order deal was less than the 1% under TL deal, I was hoping I would be able to get the $500. Dealer knows nothing of it, and I can't find...
Just speculation, but with Tim Kuniskis newly in charge of RAM - along with Dodge - I suspect he's making some changes. He's quite engaged, and a real car guy, We can hope for improvement, as it certainly would be hard to do worse!
With seemingly nothing that I can do to find out what is going on within RAM and why my truck is in quarantine at Belvidere, I just fired off 3 polite but to the point emails to some Stellantis execs who SHOULD care. Likely a complete waste of time, but who knows. Sent to:
- Tim Kuniskis, Chief...
Argh! What is going on with Stellantis?
My truck has been sitting in Belvidere IL for about 2 months now, along with a bunch of others, and apparently nobody knows why or when or if it will get released from quarantine. After 8 months, I've just about had it with RAM and am actively looking...
So what the hell are they doing there, and why doesn't anyone seem to know anything about it? All I can get from my dealer is "transportation delay", and all the extremely helpful @brv10 can tell us is "at Belvidere with Precision Vehicle Group.".
I searched for all the contact info I could...
Agree totally. No rhyme or reason evidently.
On the spreadsheet, I suspect that the tracker is not always accurate :-) Pretty sure that people have posted that their truck was delivered, but the tracker still shows it TBD. Would be interested to hear if any of these folks have gone back to...
I can't understand why RAM is not able to predictably ship AND TRACK the location of a truck costing $100k. UPS, FedEx and USPS manage to monitor a $10 package every step of the way. It's just plain inexcusable!
My truck got a train ride from MX, inexplicably to the idled Belvidere plant...
Yes, BRV10 has been very helpful - thanks!!! Strangely, it seems the truck is being re-routed somehow for some reason from Belvedere via Precision Vehicle Logistics. Perhaps Stellantis outsourced the transfer/yard management in Belvedere to them? http://precisionvehicleholding.com/
I'm sure it...
Ordered 11/1, shipped 4/11. Tracked rail car to Belvidere IL where the car was delivered to the Belvidere plant. Then apparently the truck was un-loaded from the rail car. Rail car is now somewhere in North Dakota... Always assumed once loaded on a rail car, it would stay there until the...
So you have a contract that references the Mopar Vehicle Protection Plan (www.moparvehicleprotection.com)? What coverage did you buy, and what repairs are they refusing to cover?
I've had the experience in the past where the dealer has tried to sell me what they claimed to be a "factory...
Please clarify. From your comments, I assume you bought a 3rd party warranty, NOT the Mopar factory extended warranty? If you have had this experience with the Mopar warranty I would be extremely surprised, as my experience has been the exact opposite.
What does TL buy you, if you've already negotiated a price before placing the order? Also, it appears they have a 30-day wait period before you can use the FCA deal.
@brv10 - if possible, could you look-up the rail car for my truck? The dealer says he doesn't know how to do that :-(
ORDER #: 57487847
VIN: 3C63R3RL2PG525964
Ordered 11/1, shipped 4/11.
Thanks!!!
Ordered 11/1, finally built!!! Now the next wait begins.
A bit puzzled by the payload numbers from the towing capacity guide however. Based on my VIN, (3C63R3RL2PG525964), it's showing 24,932# max tow, which is fine, but 3622# for max payload. My similarly equipped 2016 has a payload of...
Yes - makes perfect sense...
Perhaps (probably) I missed it in the last 96 pages of this thread, but Is there any way to determine the interim status codes, or do I have to ask the dealer to look that up? I thought it might be revealed in the...
