Brake Pedal movement/excessive play

[sstoner911]

I had a 2015 Ram 1500 where the brake pedal developed some excessive play and the dealership replaced it under warranty and it resolved the issue.

My 2024 Ram has developed a similar issue and the brake pedal is rattling at times on bumpy dirt roads etc...

So today I took it in to the dealer and had them look at it(along with a noise in the steering shaft and radio bezel). So after 5 hours the tech came back and said the movement in the brake pedal was consistent with other trucks on the lot. Which I do not buy, as this problem has been getting worse over time and I was waiting for it to be bad enough for the dealership to be able to duplicate it.

So does you Ram brake pedal have this much play?

My '22 had that exact same amount of play and made noises on bumpy roads, was terrible I even got to a point where I used my left foot to hold it up on long gravel road drives. New '25 doesn't (yet) with 4k miles on it but from your experience sounds like it likely will in time :| I'll have to go manually check how much play the new truck has now and monitor it.
