But since I have been buying Chrysler products I have only had one vehicle that even came close to the issues I had with my Fords. A Grand Voyager that had a vibration in the front that the dealer could not or would not find/fix. BTW I started buy Chrysler's long before I went to work for them.

I had similar issues with a 98 Dodge truck engine, transmission, ring and pinion gears and ball joints all before 100k miles. My oldest 99 Ford 7.3 F-250 has 255k miles with no major issues, the second oldest 2000 V-10 F-250 has 190k, replaced the clutch and heater core along with normal maintenance items.

I also owned two new 1990 GM vehicle's a 454 SS and a Blazer that the ((New)) water based paint failed without GM standing behind it's product. The Blazer also needed a motor replacement.

I still would not hesitate to purchase another Ram or GM truck if they best serve my needs. There is not a brand out there that at one time or another that didn't have issues with their products.

I have yet to see any brand that has eliminated their service center because it was no longer needed.
