| Video Discription | 8 Reasons Why You Should AVOID The 2024 Ram 1500!! Thinking of grabbing the latest 2024 Ram 1500 pickup? You might want to hit the brakes and watch this first. Despite its rugged charm and comfort, the Ram Pickup also has some unfortunate shortcomings that might leave you stranded and frustrated on the side of the road. It’s better to be informed than sorry! No real hybrid options, just mild hybrid The 2024 Ram 1500 offers 2 engine choices. One is a 3.6-liter V6, making 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque and the other is a 5.7-liter V8 that produces 395 hp and 410 lb-ft of torque. The V6 is also equipped with a mild hybrid system that slightly improves fuel economy. The V8 can also come with the same eTorque mild hybrid or without it. It can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in about 6.4 seconds. Apart from these options, there is also a 702 hp supercharged 6.2 V8 available for the TRX model only. They all use an 8-speed automatic gearbox that sends the power to the rear wheels. Four-wheel drive is available as an option on all trims, except the TRX, where it is standard. They are all decent numbers, but we think that the 2024 Ram should have gotten a full hybrid powertrain option with some really serious worksite power and fuel economy. A mild-hybrid just doesn’t cut it. The Ford F-150 got one, a very versatile and efficient PowerBoost system that combines a turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 with an electric motor and a battery pack for a combined 430 hp and 570 lb-ft. Good job, Ford! eTorque System issues According to Ram owners’ experiences from car forums, it appears the latest Ram pickup trucks have all sorts of issues with their eTorque mild-hybrid system that cause funny or not so funny problems. There are reports of vehicles shutting their engine off suddenly and applying the parking brake all on their own. The instrument panel would indicate an issue with the mild-hybrid battery not charging. One specific owner of a 2022 Ram 1500 Laramie complained that the hybrid battery pack failed and the truck went wacko and shut off mid drive, while on their way to school with the children. It took several weeks for the dealership to fix it. Random engine stalls seem the norm on these Ram 1500 pickup trucks with the eTorque mild-hybrid powertrains. Another owner of a 2023 Ram reported that the car happens to randomly stall in the middle of the road and set the eBrake. This is an ugly thing. If you’re in traffic, you kinda’ have to pray that the car behind stops in time without hitting you. This stalling behavior often occurs when slowing down to turn at an intersection or enter a parking lot. One owner complained that his Ram truck stalled 10 times in less than 4000 miles. What’s funny or frustrating, depending on whether you’re a Ram owner or not, is that the eTorque system tends to malfunction when the AC system or the ventilated seats are actively in use. Apparently, it’s not as much a hardware issue, as it’s a software glitch within the eTorque system itself. Dealerships and service centers recommend always making sure the software is up to date. It's quite ironic, isn't it? The Ram doesn’t even boast a proper full hybrid powertrain, yet it’s still prone to malfunctions because of it. Software-related issues are quite common when it comes to the latest generation of the Ram 1500. Owners often complain that the vehicle has the tendency to produce inaccurate readings of the battery voltage. Other owners had issues with the hazards lights coming on suddenly while driving. It was impossible for them to turn them off without shutting off the vehicle first. Sometimes, the truck would switch to 2-wheel drive, which is pretty problematic, especially in winter. Owners often complained that they were unable to use the car in 4-wheel drive and had to visit the dealership to get it fixed. Occasionally, the backup camera would just stay on and you have to shut off the vehicle and start it back up to turn off the backup camera. In the meantime you just cannot use the infotainment screen inside the cabin. Expensive Infotainment system that glitches Speaking of infotainment, the basic $41k Ram Tradesman trim comes only with a 5-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Bluetooth connectivity and a six-speaker stereo system. #2024rampickup #RAM #pickup [OqGkdGgqtV8] |
