Ram Lemon Law

Ram Lemon Law Lawyers

At Rockpoint Law, lemon law is all we do. A truck is a tool, and a tool stuck at the dealer for weeks is costing you money the whole time. Several state lemon laws count those days directly.

That makes a Ram claim different from a passenger-car claim in a way that usually helps you. Start with a free case evaluation.

The Problem

When a Ram becomes a lemon

A Ram qualifies as a lemon when a warranty defect keeps coming back after a reasonable number of repair attempts, or when the truck has been out of service too long. On a work truck, days out of service is often the strongest part of the claim.

One question comes first, not last: is the truck titled to a business? Some state lemon laws exclude company-registered vehicles or cap the gross weight they cover, so the title and weight rating decide which law protects it. We sort that out up front.

Common Defects

The defects behind most Ram claims

eTorque electrical (1500)

The eTorque mild-hybrid system generates electrical faults, no-start conditions and warning lights that come back after a reset. An intermittent no-start is hard to reproduce, so these often take multiple visits before a dealer commits to a fix.

EcoDiesel & Cummins fuel and emissions (2500, 3500)

The 3.0 EcoDiesel has faced engine-failure and oil-pump concerns. On the Cummins trucks, high-pressure fuel pump failure can send metal through the whole fuel system, and EGR/emissions faults drop the truck into derate mode — a limp mode that parks a working truck.

Arbitration

How a Ram claim moves

Ram runs through the same Stellantis arbitration process as Jeep, with the required-first-step question set by your state. See our diesel emissions lemon law page for how derate and emissions claims work.

How It Works

How a Ram claim moves

01

Check the dates first

Your warranty term, mileage and the complaint on each repair order decide whether you have a claim at all. We work out how much of your state's window is left, and whether the federal Magnuson-Moss route still applies if it has closed.

02

Free case review

We read your repair orders and confirm which qualifying test fits and whether a safety-hazard route applies, because a safety defect usually cuts the repairs you need.

03

Written notice to the manufacturer

Most routes require written notice to the manufacturer and a reasonable opportunity to repair before a claim is filed. We handle it correctly so it can't be used against you later.

04

File the claim or arbitration

Depending on your state and manufacturer, that means the manufacturer's arbitration programme or a warranty lawsuit. A clean, well-documented claim gets a different result from a thin one.

05

Resolution

Repurchase, a comparable replacement, or a cash settlement that leaves you in the vehicle. On a repurchase the manufacturer deducts a mileage offset for use before the defect appeared.

Why Rockpoint Law

Why Ram owners choose Rockpoint Law

Work trucks and heavy-duty diesels — we handle Ram claims. We check the title and weight rating first so no one wastes weeks on the wrong claim, and if the state window has closed we tell you whether Magnuson-Moss still works.

Where We Work

Where we handle Ram claims

Rockpoint Law runs Ram lemon law claims from offices in Philadelphia, Newark, Manhasset, Dallas and Miami, and takes cases nationwide. The state where you bought or registered the vehicle sets the rules that apply, so start with your state:

Two laws sit behind a Ram claim: your state's lemon law and the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. You don't need to sort out which applies before you call. Learn how the lemon law works or how a manufacturer buyback works, and estimate your figure with the buyback calculator.

FAQ

Ram Lemon Law: Frequently Asked Questions

My Ram is a work truck titled to my business. Am I still covered?
Maybe — it depends on your state. Some lemon laws exclude company-registered vehicles or cap the gross weight covered. We check the title and weight rating first, before anything else.
My diesel keeps going into derate mode. Is that a claim?
EGR and emissions faults that drop the truck into a speed-limited limp mode are exactly the kind of repeat defect that supports a claim, and the days out of service often carry it.
The eTorque no-start comes and goes. Does that count?
Every documented visit is a repair attempt. Intermittent no-starts are hard to reproduce, but the repeat history is what matters.
What can I recover?
Typically a repurchase, a comparable replacement, or a cash settlement, with a mileage offset applied on a repurchase.
