Back in Service for the same ADA issues.

[RADA]

Yeah, I had mine at the dealer for almost two weeks with ADA issues of it going over the lines on curves and disconnecting with no resolution, saying ADA can't maintain lanes. Weird thing is if I use Hands on Assist it never does it and is perfect. Also I get a trailer is hooked up message from time to time and no trailer is hooked up.

The dealer basically gave it back and said there was nothing else they could do. I said I'll drive it a bit more and see of the updates they made changed anything and they did not. I'll keep driving and hope for a code. I didn't buy the truck from this dealer, but did lease a EV Daytona last year and bought a Jeep MOAB from them a month ago but they seem frustrated with me when I brought articles in from other owners who had this issue and it has been fixed and what the other dealers did to fix it.

For now I'll keep driving and hope for a more severe message.

What state are you in? In California, if a manufacturer says they can do, it's almost an instant win, in a Lemon Law case...

I am in NY state, and the problem is I love the truck aside from this, and I am fairly certain it can be fixed since other trucks work perfectly fine. Something is just not calibrated correctly.

My next step is to take it to the dealer I bought it from and see if they can figure it out. I am very fortunate I have other vehicles to drive so it can stay there. I'm inclined to say, "Just keep it until it is fixed and call me."!

I'm starting to have front bumper parking sensors problems (they're not working) < 500 miles, is that part of the ADA issues? I had the Infotainment screen and radio replaced with < 300 miles on it and was at the dealerships Service Department for 23 days.

 

[RADA]

I've had the Infotainment Screen and Module replaced 8 times..
Second issue I had in March or April of 25...

 

[RADA]

Well...

The truck is still in for service (3 weeks as of Monday). We've passed 90 days in service (I miscounted the days in a previous thread)

The Service Advisor said the ADA errors are so confusing that this case has gone three levels above the "regular" STAR technicians. My truck is famous (maybe infamous would be a better word for it)

The next step is replacing some "System Security" Module.
If this doesn't work, she stated STAR is going to have them replace the "WHOLE FRAME (wiring) HARNESS!!"

The warranty repairs on this truck must be approaching what I paid for the truck...

NOTE: When I 1st dropped it off three weeks ago, the STAR Tech was still trying to blame the windshield tint, even though the tint was removed over a month ago, and the error codes the system is spitting out have nothing to do with the camera systems!! This was shut down quickly...

 

[Chris3058]

Holy shit.

 

[RADA]

It's been a full month in service as of today (31 days). The truck has been in service for 3 months out of 21 months of ownership.

The Service Manager texted me on Tuesday that they need to take it out on the road to see if all the error codes have been cleared.

The fact that it's Thursday and I haven't been called to pick up my truck makes me believe there's still a problem.

More updates as soon as I have more information.

Dude. Lemon Law??? That seems like a can’t fix issue.

I'm 10 months into a Lemon Law Case.

Finished the arbitration meeting last month.

RAM has agreed to buy the truck back from me. This part of the process could take another 6-7 months.
I still need to keep up with issues and maintenance, etc...

Interesting that they're happy to sell/lease 2 vehicles from you, but get 'frustrated' with you for asking to service a vehicle that the manufacturer will ultimately pay for......

 

[RADA]

Looks like it will be 5 weeks and counting...

Message I just got from my Service Coordinator:

This is perhaps the most depressing aspect of your situation! Hard to imagine how much time and money is lost when Ram simply chooses not to back up their quality and offer a buyback on their own initiative.

I just got my truck back after 3wks at the dealer and my issue was immediately present after driving off the lot. My case manager wants nothing to do with helping me out.

 

[RADA]

They might have the truck until RAM buys it back.

My attorney insisted that I don't take the truck back until all issues it's in for (for that service visit) are fixed/solved.

This is a text from the Service Manager (he used to be my Service Coordinator):

 

[Chris3058]

Yep. I just got mine back - headlights are 6 weeks out - and the new headunit fixed my CarPlay - but I now have zero connectivity and Uconnect can’t figure it out. It’s unbelievable how fucked this is.

And while I’m picking it up my sales guy wanders over and asks if I’m interested in the silver TRX in the showroom. Lmfao.

I’m going to call today and request a buy back - we don’t have lemon laws here - only a manufacturer run arbitration program which is bullshit. Sorry Ram. I’m out. Had your products for over 15 years and I’m done.

 

[RADA]

What pisses me off to the N-th degree after walking through this Lemon Law process is I still LOVE this truck...
It's so much better that anything else like it.

ALL currently offered vehicles are terribly expensive, over technologied, poorly designed and engineered, mass-produced GARBAGE.

The F150 Raptor is overpriced vibrating plastic garbage compared to the RHO.
Chevy/GMC and Toyota have engines with the "roll the dice" longevity of a pin-pulled grenade.

I thought to go back to a Mustang GT, but the new Mustang is a hideous abomination, probably designed by someone who never had a Mustang, and didn't really like Mustangs in the first place.

I'm seriously thinking about getting a cheap, basic A to B, and back to A "invisible - just transportation" vehicle, so I can wean myself off my love for car and trucks.

I'm burnt out with the BS...

@RADA, I feel so bad for you. A friend of mine was in a similar situation but with a BMW. A mutual friend of ours in NE PA owns a junkyard with a crusher. I heard my friends car was stolen and was never found. His problems were solved. Worked out for him. Just sayin…

I appreciate the sentiment, but I'll stick with my Lemon Law settlement.

It'll all be over in a few months...
