Description of the problem | Dissapointed with the purchase of 17 ram 1500, truck looks good and has great looks . It has a tapping/ticking noise when its at idle at a standstill, its called the dreaded hemi tick, i have a 5. 7 motor with mds, there is many threads and complaints about this on the internet. My truck only has 500 miles and should not have any kind of tapping/ticking noises coming from the engine, mostly noticed from drivers side from the wheel well . The dealer says its normal and that they cant hear it when i bring it in, i should drive and wait for first service to have checked out . Second issue is that the pressure flaps in the rear of the cab are always making noise when driving, you can hear them flapping when you brake or when you take off . I want my money back . |
