    Air or water leaks

    "2 bodyside appeture exhausters behind the rear seats leaked. The design was changed and I purchased the newer parts out of my own pocket to replace them. The water leak soaked the carpet over time and caused mold on it. I think there should have been a recall for this. To replace these vents, the rear seats must be removed. It is a widespread issue judging by the number of youtube videos discussing the issue. The parts cost $30 but labor is time-consuming. I removed the seats myself but I had the heavy-duty tools and time to do it."

    Anonymous, (2017 Ram 1500 Lone Star 5.7-L V8)
    Electronic or air suspension

    ""This applies specifically to a Ram Rebel. Not all 1500's have air suspension. The rear air bags may only last seven to ten years before they begin to display leakage issues. This will cause the vehicle to sag depending upon which one or both air bags might be leaking. The leakage will also cause the loss of the factory nitrogen charge and result in the system's compressor operating which introduces outside air into the charge. Outside air will contaminate the system with moisture which freeze in colder climates and cause malfunctions with system control valves and possible compressor failure. Replacing the rear air bags and performing line leak checks resolved the problem. However, recharging the system with nitrogen requires special equipment and servicing to factory specifications is expensive. The system will operate normally when charged with outside air, but reliability may suffer.""

    Anonymous, CO (2017 Ram 1500 Laramie 5.7-L V8)
