Common questions

Which is more reliable, the 2007 Dodge Ram 3500 or the 2007 Hyundai Entourage?

It's close to a tie. Both vehicles score within 0.2 points on our reliability index (3.5 vs 3.6). At this margin, either choice is defensible — base your decision on the specific failure modes that matter to you.

What goes wrong more often on the 2007 Dodge Ram 3500?

Compared to the 2007 Hyundai Entourage, the 2007 Dodge Ram 3500 sees more reported issues in steering and airbags. That doesn't mean it's a bad truck — it means those are the categories worth budgeting for if you go that direction.

What goes wrong more often on the 2007 Hyundai Entourage?

Compared to the 2007 Dodge Ram 3500, the 2007 Hyundai Entourage has more complaints in electrical and suspension. Whether that's a deal-breaker depends on the cost and severity — see the comparison table above for repair cost ranges.

Which has more recalls?

The 2007 Dodge Ram 3500 has more active recalls (2 vs 1). Total count is less important than severity, though — a vehicle with one critical recall and zero moderate ones is generally riskier than one with five moderate recalls.

Is an extended warranty worth it on either of these?

Both vehicles are out of factory bumper-to-bumper coverage at this point. Combined repair exposure across the top problem categories runs around $13,000 on the higher-risk vehicle. A quality service contract typically costs $1,800–3,500 over 3 years, so a single major failure usually pays for the contract. The math favors warranty coverage on whichever vehicle you choose, especially if you plan to keep it past 100,000 miles.
