Shake or Vibration Issues
TheFactor replied to Silver space ship's topic in Troubleshooting & Recalls
I recently bought a new Ram quad cab 4x4 Hemi and couldn't be happier . Omg what a nice truck my 2014 Silverado I traded in had the vibe at exactly starting at 20 mph and ended at 30 mph . You could hear it and feel it and was driving me nuts ! It's so nice now not experiencing that anymore and I can now enjoy my truck and am I ever . I absolutely love my Ram best truck I've ever owned and I've owned a few over the years lol . Just thought I'd chime in and I feel really bad for the guys and gals experiencing the vibe in there GM truck I know because I went through it for over almost a year until I couldn't take it anymore .I'm really glad to hear though that some have got it fixed or at least better to were they can enjoy there truck also ! -
Could be a Sway bar .

Great post BTW !As far as his wheel being off 5oz I would imagine that could of easily happened if he threw a weight and not necessarily had a bad balance when the tires were installed . -

It really is shame we have to take such a hard hit on depreciation because getting out of truck much earlier then planned . You can thank GM for that and what's even worse is there such great trucks without the vibrations but that definitely turns it into a nightmare at least it did for me and made me sick . But now looking back it was a blessing in disguise or I would of never bought my Ram . What a great truck I think you'll really like your test drive in the Ram and hope they can work you out a deal that fits your needs because I know if they can you'll get a truck you really love and enjoy driving like you should of with your GM .

Thanks for your welcome but it would be much appreciated if you don't start name calling which I will refrain from doing . I'm also glad your enjoying your truck and this thread and your welcome to visit any Ram forum at your convenience and I'll be there for you with a warm welcome . Also I have contributed to this thread in a positive manner so before you start name calling you should do your homework and educate yourself on the posts within this thread . Further more if it bothers you someone else is vibration free after a year of vibrations in a GM product then that's your problem and not mine . So I'll stay here as long as I like and if I want to recommend another manufacture That's been good for me I will . Sent from my iPhone 6 using Tapatalk -

Sounds like you have a great plan , I also thought about a used one but after my last truck even though I bought new was concerned about buying another truck with issues and buying someone else's problems so went new plus all the great incentives/ discounts . For me the Ram 1500 with the Hemi was a perfect match because the only thing it will really tow is my bike and small trailer to and from the track but someday I'd like to get a small to medium size camper to tow . The 2500 is a sweet truck though and that Cummings diesel is one of the best if not the best??All I can say is every time I drive my Ram I can't wipe the smile off my face and it's made me happy with my choice . What a great truck and as I mentioned I've owned many fords and Chevys but this has been my favorite from the get go and still is . -

You should drive a Ram and see for yourself , I'm loving mine and out of the 7 trucks I've owned over the years this is my by far all around favorite . Man it drives nice and with the Hemi im getting 19 mpg in town and can't wait to go on a trip with it and see the freeway Mpg . Love the way the Hemi sounds and has nice power and torque . Got almost 1000 miles and not one rattle . My Vibarado starting rattling the first 100 miles now that perfection lol .Love my Fiat? -

My 2015 Ram 1500 came with 20" Bridgestone dulers and man does it drive nice , smooth as glass Never liked Bridgestone/Firestone and was going to replace them with some Michelin After a while but they ride so good I'm keeping them plus there rated at 80000 miles . -

And what's funny is before they would they check it out and give me a loaner they had one of service /tech guys drive it with me and he verified the vibration and told me didn't blame for being upset especially being a new truck . -

Yeah that's possible it could be in your brake system maybe . Mine did it coasting between 20 or 30 and breaking also accelerating but not as noticeable taking off . Sent from my iPhone 6 using Tapatalk -

Mine was always between 20 and 30mph so basically to and from every stop light so to counter it I would break late so it would vibrate less . Heck of a way to enjoy a new truck . Sent from my iPhone 6 using Tapatalk -

I'm sorry not sure but it does fit in my garage but I have a taller door I believe . When I get home tonight I can measure my truck if you like . I know it does sit high stock though because I need to grab the oh shit handles every time I get in and out to avoid sliding on the side edge of the seat and avoiding a little free fall of airtime lol . I'm only 5'6" though and see some iron cross HD steps in my near future . -

I trade my 14 Silverado in because it was a vibrator but it was a blessing in disguise because I to traded it in on 15 Ram q-cab hemi 4x4 and what a truck I love everything about and it's my favorite and that says a lot. Because it's my 7 th truck over the years . 4 fords and 3 Chevys and this Ram is my all around most enjoyable . The Silverado was a great truck and sexy lol but the Vibrarions killed it and made it annoying to drive . -
