I purchased a brand-new 2025 RAM 1500 Laramie, and from day one it has been a nightmare. Only TWO days after delivery, the truck completely died and had to be towed back to the dealership. Since then, it has been in for repairs FOUR separate times. The last time was [XXX], when it was towed again — and here we are, almost TWO MONTHS later, with my truck still sitting at RAM Greenway, untouched, no repairs, no updates, no solution. Nobody is working on it, and now they have the audacity to try to charge me for the rental car while they hold my truck hostage. Meanwhile, I’m still paying the monthly payment for a brand-new vehicle I can’t even drive. RAM Customer Care is absolutely useless — they just send copy-paste updates saying “the dealer is working on the vehicle” when clearly NOTHING is being done. Zero accountability, zero urgency, zero customer service. This situation has caused me extreme stress and financial loss. I depend on a reliable vehicle for my family and my daily life, and RAM has failed on every level. Do NOT buy a RAM vehicle. Do NOT do business with RAM Greenway in Orlando. They will take your money, leave you without a working vehicle, and refuse to take responsibility. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Brand new 2025 Ram 1500 Bighorn/Lonestar purchased on 10/24/24. From day 1 it pulls to the right at highways speeds. The dealer has tried to fix the issue with alignment two times, but not luck, they don’t know what is wrong because all the numbers in alignment are green and good. There are several online posts that are talking about this issue with the 2025 Ram 1500s. Also in regard to my truck greeting light feature, the service advisisor said the technician claims it is not a feature on the Bighorn/Lonestar trims, but I believe it is. If it wasn't a feature, then I wouldn't have those options in my settings. I also discovered something interesting about this. At night, after turning my truck off - but without pressing the key fob, LOCK button, if I press the key fob UNLOCK button, the headlights and taillights come on (as per the featured settings) like they are supposed to do. However, if I press the key fob LOCK button first (1 or 2 presses - it doesn't matter), when I press the key fob UNLOCK button, the headlights and taillights do not turn on (as per the featured settings) like they are supposed to. Again, I believe this is a software issue, but could be related to the headlight module that I am seeing being reported online as well.
