RAM Average close time

Retrospaz85 · 02-15-2022, 08:59 PM

Evening!
Just seeing what everyone's experiences with the RAM "recall" and how long you had to wait. I'm kinda expecting 10-15 days minimum right now. If I see anything sooner I'll be greatly suprised.

yanks1 · 02-15-2022, 09:30 PM

Mine was 10-11 days at Port

e36uulm · 02-15-2022, 09:44 PM

Same here, about 11 days.

steelatx · 02-16-2022, 02:57 AM

Mine was good after 8 days. Galveston port

ThunderM240 · 02-16-2022, 06:17 AM

Mine was 7 days (Jan 14 - 21) at NJ VDC

MPM104 · 02-16-2022, 08:26 AM

I am at 17 days and counting at the NJ VDC

3 days at Baltimore. Viking Destiny unloaded it on Sunday and work order was closed a few minutes ago (because I was checking it way too often). Someone else in the Viking Destiny thread also had theirs closed in 2-3 days.

I don't want to feel ignorant but what is RAM?

Receiver audio module in the trunk which has to be retrofitted for many vehicles at the destination ports due to supply chain issues. If you have a VIN, any open work orders for the vehicle will eventually show up here: https://bmw-recall-tool.netlify.app/

Mine was at Baltimore port Sunday, RAM recall closed Tuesday, and on way to the dealership Thursday.

Just wondering what your, and 240idax order dates were. Wondering if they take this into consideration when putting in the RAM's or if they just lined them up after taking them off the boat and its a first in line situation.

datalist · 02-17-2022, 09:49 AM

Vin Status closed, means it is fixed?

I ordered mine in late September, but the dealer didn't have an allocation until November/December.

I switched from a smaller dealer to Annapolis because they had multiple allocation and the smaller dealership, just the one and I had to wait until they sold a car...Also still no recall update ie mine is still showing open.

Okay I was ahead of you putting the order in by a few days, the 23rd I believe. So you might have beat me to the production line, I cant quite remember the dates mine started. So that might be possibly what they're going off of.

I sadly don't have anything nice to say about the sales people at annapolis. I moved my allocation over via phone and I've had just poor customer service from them since the beginning.
