🔍 Known Issues — 2009-2018 RAM 1500
TIPM Failure HIGH
The Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) commonly fails between 80,000-120,000 miles, causing issues with fuel pump relay, horn, wipers, and other electrical components. This is a widespread problem across multiple model years. Replacement costs typically range from $1,200-$1,800 including labor.
Exhaust Manifold Bolt Failure MODERATE
The exhaust manifold bolts on the 5.7L Hemi are prone to breaking, typically occurring around 60,000-100,000 miles. This causes exhaust leaks and a distinctive ticking noise. Repair involves drilling out broken bolts and can cost $800-$1,500 depending on how many bolts have failed.
Lifter Tick and Cam/Lifter Wear MODERATE
The Multi-Displacement System (MDS) can cause premature cam and lifter wear, resulting in the characteristic Hemi tick. This typically becomes noticeable around 80,000-150,000 miles. Complete cam and lifter replacement can cost $3,000-$5,000, making it often uneconomical to repair.
Rear Differential Pinion Seal Leak MODERATE
The rear differential pinion seal commonly develops leaks around 75,000-120,000 miles, causing gear oil to drip onto the driveway. While not immediately dangerous, it can lead to differential damage if left unrepaired. Seal replacement typically costs $300-$600.
Dashboard Cracking LOW
The dashboard plastic is prone to cracking, especially in hot climates, typically appearing after 5-8 years regardless of mileage. While purely cosmetic, it affects resale value. Dashboard replacement or covering costs $500-$1,200 depending on the solution chosen.
