“with transmissions exploding everywhere”
Please enlighten me. I’m considering buying a 2019 Ram 3/4 ton truck. Our current Ford 10 speed transmission has issues and I’m looking for something reliable.
Do Ram trucks have the issue you describe?
I will not buy GM products.
I have a co-worker who bought a brand new 2016 or 2017 (can't remember when - and he's not in right now to ask) Ram with a gasoline V-8 and auto trans. The night he took it home, brand new from the dealership, with less than 20 miles on the truck, the transmission cracked and dumped all the fluid on his driveway. It was so new, and transmissions for that model year were unavailable as they were all slated for production, not repair/replacement, that they wound up just swapping him another truck for the same price.
Dodge recently started getting transmissions from the same supplier that builds Toyota’s. I forget the name of the company. You may be ok in 2019.
