MY 2009 DODGE RAM 1500 IS MAKING A BANGING SOUND BEHIND THE GLOVE BOX. I HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE BEFORE SINCE IT WAS AN HEAT BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR THAT WENT OUT. THE DEALERSHIP FIXED IT ONCE AND NOW ITS BACK AGAIN. IS THIS GOING TO BE AN ON GOING ISSUE EACH YEAR AND THE PART NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I WAS QUOTED ALMOST "$750" IN JUST LABOR FEES TO GET IT CHANGED OUT. I DON'T THINK THIS IS AN ISSUE ON MY END SINCE THE PART APPEARS TO LAST FOR A YEAR. I WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE A/C AND CHECK WITH OTHER DODGE RAM FORUMS ON HOW OTHERS HAD THIS SOLVED. *TR

POWER TRAIN
DODGE HAS A RECALL NUMBER P77. DODGE DEALER, GLENN E THOMAS DODGE, OF LONG BEACH CA REFUSED TO DIAGNOSE A VIBRATION WHICH SEEMED TO BE COMING FROM THE DRIVE SHAFT, UNTIL AFTER THE RECALL WAS PERFORMED. THERE IS NO INFORMATION ON WHEN THIS RECALL WILL BE RESOLVED. I NOW HAVE ALOUD SCRAPING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL AND I BELIEVE THE CAR IS UNSAFE. CALLS TO THE FCS RECALL CENTER HAVE AVAILED ZERO INFORMATION. THERE NEEDS TO BE A TIME LIMIT ON THESE SAFETY RECALLS. THIS VEHICLE ALSO HAS ANOTHER RECALL THAT DODGE CANNOT FIX P81. *TR
