Build ISSUES 2022 RAM TRX Sandblast Edition

[@jeremiahharm69]

Seriously these are by far the best TRX Videos on youtube. I mean come on man he works on them daily. he knows what he is talking about add that to the passion he has for the truck = quality content that we can count on .. and out here in California we cant count on shit ! love the videos Tyler

[@TylerPotter]

Man seriously that means so much! Thank you for the awesome comment. I really do try to make informative videos. Thank you so much for the view!

[@drcylon]

Didn't know the TRX lean can be fixed at the dealer free of charge! Will take the beast to get fixed. Thanks for this useful information, awesome review as usual, 10/10.

[@TylerPotter]

Yes new left side springs get installed, this video should explain the repair. Thanks for the view! kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGfOkIqKnKZgpNU

[@swedesam]

I bet if the CEO's and other C-suite's pay/bonus was deducted for every quality issue found on their products, these Stellantis products would be Toyota-tier level of quality.

[@TylerPotter]

I bet you are right! Thanks for the view!

[@davidtrent6966]

Thanks for the informative video. I pickup my sandblast next week and will inform the dealer what to look for before I drive off the lot. New sub!!

[@TylerPotter]

Thank you! I wasn't really in love with the pictures online but seeing the color in person it is an awesome truck! Congrats on the new truck and thanks for the view!

[@lirr408]

It is great to have someone who actually works on these trucks give a heads up for what to look for. Great video.

[@TylerPotter]

Thanks! I am impatiently waiting for our 1st 2023 in the shop so I can look it over also! Thanks for the view!

[@1familyxj]

Love the TRX videos. Keep them coming Tyler.

[@TylerPotter]

Thanks! Will do! Thanks for the view!

[@gta4viceman]

One small issue I had on my truck was this piece of fabric on the passenger seat that just didn't want to clip into place finally with enough force it was clicked into place.

[@adherentofgod]

Can you see the fluid level on the transfer case?

[@systemdown4027]

great video! I think it's safe to say that the things you talked about applies to all trx trucks in general. a very helpful tips. thanks!

[@TylerPotter]

Your totally correct! Thanks for the view!

[@gusherb94]

My ‘22 F150 had a cable tie not fastened behind the glovebox and some door seals weren’t pushed on all the way, the front wheel alignment was not done right at the factory, the interior side mirror caps rattled right off the dealer lot, and a piece of insulation under the bed over the exhaust is starting to fall off which are both known issues on the forums. I had a new Subaru with a broken fuse box cover, a new Nissan with seat heaters miswired from the factory and a host of other electrical issues. Brand new Toyota’s have wheels falling off of them. It’s good to have videos like this cataloging known issues on new vehicles since manufacturers can’t be bothered to do final quality assurance checks on things before they get shipped out.

[@TylerPotter]

Yeah it is weird so many little things don't get addressed. Thanks for the view!

[@SurgeWorld]

Have you heard issues with the touch screen?

[@moorefaith23]

Great info. Hopefully @Ram is paying attention.

[@TylerPotter]

Thanks for the view!

[@mohamedajina2653]

What is the new part number for the shock spring? Thank you for the amazing video!

[@TylerPotter]

This video will explain the spring issue. Thanks for the view! kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGfOkIqKnKZgpNU

[@brandongiles578]

Have you seen many rear window water leaks on the TRX trucks? Ive had 3 newer GM trucks and they all leak and is why i want to leave Gm for a TRX.

[@pjhhermans]

Thank you, do you know what the problem is when pulling out it feels like a delay also when braking to a complete stop. If like the axle sits loose

[@TylerPotter]

This sounds like the rear drive shaft clunk issue see the video here kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKTbqKCnqp1pl5Isi=Ukw402W2inywNgCs

[@DriveAmerican]

Thank you, sir! I'll hopefully be taking delivery of my 22' this month. Subbed for more insights like this video had!

[@TylerPotter]

Awesome they are such fun trucks to drive and they ride so smooth on the road! Thanks for the view!

[@richardalexander1838]

Who do you know who would inspect a new truck in South Florida? RHO is coming. I am a little nervous.

[@bronxbomber9616]

AWESOME VIDEO BRO!!!

[@trxntroll843]

Any suggestions on how to align the tailgate left to right. Mine is a little to the right almost to where it touches the body panel next to it.

[@TylerPotter]

I personally have not messed with any body alignment. If it were me I would be asking our dealership body shop for recommendations as to what to move. Thanks for the view!

[@christopherkraft1327]

Hey Tyler, wow, $101,000 is a lot of money for a truck but that's the world in which we live now!!! I do think that the color is really cool. Thanks for sharing another informative video!!! 👍👍🙂

[@TylerPotter]

Yeah and then you've got some dealers adding 20k+ of mark up on top of that!

[@CCW-wg8ds]

Hi just bought a used 22 TRX in orange Man I love this truck and get a lot of compliments on it even The police in town give me a thumbs up . I'm not noticing the Lean so maybe it was taken care of . But so far in NJ I haven't seen another orange package yet but I've been looking for This particular color for a year . I traded in a 1320 Sinamon stick 2020 challenger and a 15 Ram ignition orange for this truck .

[@TylerPotter]

Nice! They are a blast!

[@BigMikeRobinsonFJB]

Hey Tyler thanks for the video. Which dealer do you work at?

[@TylerPotter]

Just one of the dealers here in Wichita KS. Thanks for the view!

[@Mike-jd1sv]

I will be picking up my TRX soon and driving it 500 miles home. Would that be safe to do that, if the dealer didn't check the oil levels and it's half way full?

[@TylerPotter]

It will be totally fine even if it is a little low on the drive home. I would assume 90% of the TRX's on the road currently are still running with the low factory fluid. Thanks for the view!

[@Mike-jd1sv]

@@TylerPotter That's good to know. I apperceive your reply!!

[@Mike-jd1sv]

Thank you for sharing the info!!

[@TylerPotter]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the view!

[@manlandmedia]

How about the chipmunk/chirping sound that RAM says is normal from the cats? Does that one also make that sound? Everyone I talk to says it is normal on ALL of them, yet some do not make the sound. Mine makes it at idle whether it is warmed up or not... No one seems to be talking about it for people that are considering purchasing one.

[@TylerPotter]

Oh yeah this one has the exhaust manifold chirp noise also. So far everyone I have driven also makes the noise. Thanks for the view!

[@manlandmedia]

@@TylerPotter So would new manifolds resolve it? It is driving me crazy lol. Thanks for the reply!

[@TylerPotter]

@@manlandmedia I believe some of the guys that have put the long tube headers on have reduced or eliminated the noise but I personally have not heard a truck with headers on it to confirm one way or the other

[@VitalySokorenko]

Did they make any changes compared to 2021 or just change the color and stitching?

[@TylerPotter]

There were a few changes for the 22 vs. the 21. This view talks about most of them. Thanks for the view! kzbin.info/www/bejne/anW7kKeLnryIeNU

[@johngrier5949]

Mine was tagged to be audited at the factory.. it was tagged special handle unit, then went through extensive audit and test drive at the factory.. it had the drivers door repainted then it wasn’t a good match and they hung a new door at the factory I pick it up in few days from the dealer and can’t wait I have lots of pictures of it on the assembly line and pictures of the computers at the factory with my vin number showing the progress

[@TylerPotter]

That's awesome you have pictures. Thanks for the view!

[@jackwieghat4249]

Thank you for this Information.. I have that very Truck and absolutely love it!

[@TylerPotter]

They look sooo darn good in person! Thanks for the view!

[@aguywithaname7764]

As someone that’s looking at purchasing 1 of these things it’s nice to know what to look for to prevent issues. Can I have the dealership put the truck on a lift to look for these possible problems before I take delivery of it?

[@TylerPotter]

I would hope a dealership would be cool with a customer inspecting a new truck but I unfortunately can't speak on another dealerships willingness to do that. I know that I love talking with other TRX owners at our shop! Thanks for the view!

[@TCinSoCal]

I know nothing about Dodge trucks. I know Chevy 6.2 has lifter issues. I know Raptor can have Cam Phaser issues. What is reliability like of this truck and engine?

[@TylerPotter]

So far the hellcat engine has been really bulletproof (even though mine did have an issue lol) they have been out since 2015 and we have yet to replace one at the shop. Thanks for the view!

[@jimprovencher6031]

I would love a trx but just ain’t gonna happen. I have a 21 crew cab warlock very happy with. No issues yet. Nock on wood. Just makes u think how much other stuff is missed deeper in where nobody can’t see till it’s too late. I’ll keep wishing for the orange trx . Good video thx.

[@TylerPotter]

Nice the warlock is an awesome package! Thanks for the view!

[@raymondracca6717]

I ordered a 2023 last Friday... Not sure when the order will be accepted yet I'm ready for a Ram in lieu of a Raptor.

[@TylerPotter]

Nice I think you should get the awesome new digital instrument cluster like the grand wagoneers! It will be worth the wait!

[@badmj170]

I purchased a sandblast Edition and have problems with the alignment of my hood

[@TylerPotter]

I personally haven't had much body alignment issues on the trucks yet. Hopefully your dealership bodyshop can get it adjusted for you. Thanks for the view!

[@Hemibuck95]

Great job. Now please do the Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe. I'm on the fence with it due to all the issues since 21 with the new platform. However the 4xe seems intriguing. What are your thoughts?

[@TylerPotter]

So far we haven't had any 4xe issues in the shop just some recalls and updates. But time will tell once we get some in with more miles on them.

[@sirmingusdewiv8325]

Wow. I'm kinda' glad I can't afford one. The irony...

[@TylerPotter]

They really aren't "big" issues just kind of annoying lol Thanks for the view!

Hey man thanks for the info! I am supposed to be signing to order one tomorrow, but I need it not to have tons of issues, I am just a nurse so I can't afford for this thing to suck and just buy another one. Should I probably avoid it?

You should do it! These are just small little dumb things. The truck is such a fun vehicle. Thanks for the view!

or heck dude how close are you to the Midwest I would happily give you a grand to look mine over when it came in lol

[@SnakrGarage]

TRX or Challenger Hellcat Jailbreak?

That is a good question! The TRX is a lot more versatile of a vehicle but the jailbreak moves out fast! Thanks for the view!

Nice TRX big congratulations brother 🏆🔥🙌🏽🤩🙌🏽🙌🏽🌏

[@TylerPotter]

They are awesome trucks! Thanks for the view!

[@Alex_Cloke]

Very informative, useful video! 👍👍

[@Alex_Cloke]

P.S. word of advice, never approach the peak of a sand dune head on. Always at an angle to avoid your predicament and to enable you to see what’s on the other side if you drive along the ridge before committing to going over it.

[@TylerPotter]

Yeah my poor TRX high centered on a dune was about enough for me to learn that!

[@raymondracca6717]

Informative, thanks brother for your expertise!!

[@TylerPotter]

[@toddschultzandkaysar3530]

i never liked the black along the bottom of the doors ..a deal breaker.. or the two color wheels.. big improvement ..my 1997 ram leaned now i know why ..

[@TylerPotter]

Yeah I really wish they would let you option solid colors on the TRX vs. the 2 tone on all of the colors. Thanks for the view!

[@jackhammer2671]

Should have left the bead locks alone they're the best looking wheel from the factory on any TRX...painting them all black only dulled them down and looks drab and dull IMO.....Great info though gotta go check mine out especially the fluids and trans line.

[@TylerPotter]

Yes the front axle and tcase fluids will most likely be low. Thanks for the view!

[@albert.s.418]

Thanks. .

[@jessestevenson8041]

That’s sad… Dealer near me had one for $120k (20k over sticker). Pretty truck, wouldn’t buy it…

[@darknes7800]

A few places where you can order them for 5% under MSRP if you still want one. Join the TRXForum.com and you will find the dealerships offering the under MSRP prices. You have to order and you have to wait. But my 2022 fully loaded was $88K out the door. Cheers!

[@TylerPotter]

Yeah I feel pretty good to work at a store that never charges over sticker. Thanks for the view!

Nope most full size truck have the fuel tank on one side or the other of the rear driveshaft. Thanks for the view!

It looks like Dodge is trying to beat Ford & Chevy for the record of shittiest truck build. 100K and they don’t give a SHIT!!! WTF????

[@TylerPotter]

These are all really kind of small nit picky issues but I still agree that they should hopefully already be taken care of. Thanks for the view!

[@GentooGuy]

I blame the mRNA jabs and brain fog. It’s not just happening in the auto industry

[@TylerPotter]

Yeah I have seen a lot of these issues since the 1st 2021 TRX's, some things just never change. Thanks for the view!

[@wespierce1686]

You guys have all gotten too comfortable with quality issues on these vehicles that is $100,000 truck there shouldn’t be a damn thing wrong with it and if there is it should’ve never left the factory that way stop excepting crumbs when you’re the one paying for the whole loaf of bread

[@TylerPotter]

I agree but I'm at least trying to catch the issues on the ones that I get my hands on. Thanks for the view!

[@robsdeviceunknown]

You couldn't give me a 2022+ Tundra. I refuse to own a truck with anything less than a V8. These junk engines they are putting in now will not and are not lasting. Only the ignorant and city boys are buying them.

[@darknes7800]

You can thank the liberals in US GOV for the disappearing V8 engines. All because of the climate change MYTH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@TylerPotter]

Then you've got RAM stuffing 700+hp V8 in them lol Thanks for the view!
