STRUCTURE:BODY

Potential Consequences:

The tailgate intermittently opens on it's own while driving. This has happened approximately 6-10 times since I purchased the vehicle in November 2021 with 10k miles. One time it was noticed less than 1 mile from home as I was travelling under 45 mph. Other times it has been at higher speeds. I was only made aware of it happening when other cars were motioning to me while I was driving. I always firmly shut the tailgate and give it a pull to confirm it is latched. I have gotten in the habit of clicking on the backup camera after I have been driving a few minutes because there does not appear to be a warning light. Because I carry many tools in the bed for work, there is a safety risk to following vehicles (in addition to the cost of lost tools). Upon inspection I have noticed play in the right hinge. It appears to be missing a bushing on the right side that is in place on the left side (photos attached). Because I drive so much for work I didn't take it to the dealer until it had 41k miles on it. The service writer witnessed the play. A an appointment has been made for August 4, 2022 for service, but I was told that it will not be covered under warranty. Feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss.

VISIBILITY/WIPER

Potential Consequences:

The drivers side sun visor will break loose in its mount and drop into the drivers line of vision without warning if the right holder is not engaged. It dropped on me while turning westward onto the evening sun. It completely blocked my view of the road and oncoming traffic. I had the visor open and hanging low as possible due to the evening sun.

Potential Consequences:

On May 31, 2022 I purchased a 2020 Dodge Ram 1500 from Rountree Moore in Lake City Florida. I was sold this vehicle under the pretense that it had been safety checked and the vehicle was road worthy. On June 17, 2022 the front tires became low on air and I had to refill the air pressure in the tires. I was scheduled to go out of town for "Father's Day" weekend and the tires became a concern for me. On Saturday, June 18, 2022 I took my vehicle to Billings Tire in Providence, Florida to check the tires before taking my trip. I was informed that the two front tires must of be originals and never rotated and some of the metal was coming through the tires. Both rear tires were not the correct size tires for this truck and needed to be replaced although they were practically new. I called my dealership salesman, Justin, and relayed the issue to him. He in turn called Billings Tire and spoke with the owner and was suggested to Justin that this issue should have been caught during the safety inspection the dealer performs. I was also informed from Billings Tire that all 4 tires should be replaced because they were safety hazards. I spent over $900.00 on new tires that same day. I have been calling Justin about this issue and he keeps putting me off and tells me is General Manager is not in. It has been a week ago and no resolution. I feel as though I was highly pressured into purchasing this truck just to make a sale and the truck was NOT road worthy. I drive the interstate 5 days a week going to work. I feel I could have been killed as well as placing others in harms way at high speeds.
