Ram Tough, but Not Invincible: Common Engine Problems

Ram trucks are built for hard work, but even the toughest engines have their limits. 🚛 Overheating and wear from heavy towing are two of the most common issues we see—problems that can leave you stuck or facing costly repairs if ignored.

Here’s what to watch for:
🔧 Overheating: Hauling heavy loads can push your engine to the brink. Look out for rising temps, steam, or that burning smell.
🔧 Engine Wear: Frequent towing takes a toll on critical components like the cooling system, timing chain, and head gaskets.

Prevention Tips:
1️⃣ Check and top off coolant regularly.
2️⃣ Stick to your oil change schedule with high-quality oil.
