I had your problem but with my 2010 ram 3500. Batteries got hot and one was swollen and steaming from vent/caps.. I replaced both batteries and all is fine. My WAG is the old battery is not playing well with the new one and slides and leveling are on new battery and lites and fridge (inverter if residential) are on old battery and cable between batteries is small enough to not allow rapid discharge of the stronger/new battery. Pull both batteries and go to place you bought new battery from and have them tested. If new battery was damaged by bad battery then you need two new batteries and all will be fine. Also could be bad connection between batteries??
I apologize for not being more clear. I pulled BOTH old batteries and replaced with one new battery. No more parallel batteries. And I now have the situation/problem I described.
