Power Train Driveline problems of the 2004 Dodge Ram 3500

Two problems related to power train driveline have been reported for the 2004 Dodge Ram 3500. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Power Train Driveline problem

Failure Date: 04/02/2005

Noticed a vibration when reaching speeds over 72 miles per hour. Contacted local dealer regarding problem. The first time the truck was in for service the local dealer decided to put in a new drive line and aligned it. After this service the vibration still existed. Soon after the truck stalled in the middle of a very busy highway due to a malfunctioning fuel injector pump. I believe this was caused by the ever present vibration. Second time local dealer saw the truck they replaced the fuel injector pump and tried to re-align to fix the vibration. This still didn't solve the vibration. A review of the complaints on this site it appears that this is a nation wide problem and defect in this truck. Ak.

2 Power Train Driveline problem

Failure Date: 10/21/2004

Vibration in the drivetrain at high speeds, starting at about 72 miles per hour. 6 attempts of balancing drive train and wheels have not solved the problem. Vibration is enough to numb hands and feet and distort the rear view mirror images.
