BUYER BEWARE I NEVER BEEN TREATED SO BADLY, THIS DEALERSHIP IS THE WORST WHEN I WENT TO PICK UP ONE OF MY VANS THERE WAS 2 OF THEM IN THE SERVICE DEPT AND I WAS TOLD THAT I WAS ABLE TO COME TO PICK ONE UP AND THIS TIME I WAS SO LUCKY TO GET A RENTAL AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE TAKING THE RENTAL BACK WHEN I ARRIVED EVEN THOUGH THE STILL HAD 1 OF MY OTHER VANS AND THE SERVICE MANAGER HE SAID THAT …
THE ENGINE NEEDS TO GET REPLACED. IT BLEW THE GASKETS. HEADLIGHTS STOPPED WORKING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE BULBS. BULBS WERE SWITCHED OUT AND THEY STILL DIDN'T WORK. SOMETIMES I HAVE TO TURN THE TRUCK OFF THEN ON AGAIN IN ORDER TO GET THE TRANSMISSION TO PROPERLY WORK.
PURCHASED A NEW 2015 PROMASTER 2500 IN 2015 AND EXPERIENCE ENGINE PROBLEMS AFTER 2 YEARS. IN 2020 FUEL INJECTION AND ENGINE COOLER FAN ISSUES. EACH TIME THE LIGHT BULBS (HEADLIGHTS) ARE CHANGED THEY GO OUT WITHIN A FEW MONTHS. I'M SCHEDULED FOR A FEW RECALLS AND WAITING FOR THE PARTS TO COME IN FOR THE ENGINE COOLER FAN AND THE SHIFT CABLE. I WOULD NEVER BUY A DODGE RAM TRUCK AGAIN.
