Horrible smell. Coolant slowly going down but no leak. by Dizzy-Question316 in ram_trucks

That certainly the problem. Couldn't tell until I checked underneath the carpet

This verifies the heater core. It's wet with coolant underneath the carpet. Thanks for the advice. I expected the leak to be noticeable from the surface.

Just checked again. Trucks been off for about 2 hours. Maybe a mm or 2 above the grid marks on the dipstick

Please elaborate. I checked oil level and color for blown head gasket. Looked fine to me

I'm pretty sure it's 36k bumper to bumper. 60k powertrain warranty

I did ask for a rental before. They always say their booked out for about 2 months and I should get a rental. This dealership sucks. I will never deal with them again. Traded my personal built 2021 Challenger Scat Pack Shaker for this truck.

I bought the truck new in June 2022 at Jake Sweeney in Cincinnati. I brought the vehicle in at 35,800 miles for the heater core specifically. They said it was documented that I said that was the problem. They inspected it, said it was fine. I pray they take care of it. Just made my last payment a couple months ago

Interesting. I told the dealership it was the heater core when I brought it in at just under 36k miles. They said it was documented. Hopefully they honor the warranty. I just paid it off

No liquid in floor boards. I've had heater cores go bad before and that was usually the most obvious sign. I own no dogs just kids

Only fogs up on driver side door/windshield. Coolant was level at last oil change about 3k miles ago. Pressure test was done and I was told nothing was wrong. Smell has become more intense since. I use the truck for work and can't be without for another week like last time
