Common Ram ProMaster Problems

The Pentastar 3.6L V6 in the ProMaster experiences chronic oil filter housing leaks that allow oil to drip onto hot exhaust components, creating a fire risk.
The ZF 9-speed automatic transmission in the ProMaster suffers from erratic shifting behavior, including unexpected neutral drops and failure to engage reverse.
The EcoDiesel 3.0L V6 option in the ProMaster develops turbocharger bearing failures that result in excessive smoke, oil consumption, and eventual power loss.
Front-wheel-drive CV axle joints in the ProMaster wear prematurely under cargo loads, causing clicking noises during turns and eventual axle shaft breakage.
The Pentastar V6 timing chain guides in the ProMaster degrade prematurely, leading to chain stretch, rattling noises at startup, and potential valve timing issues.

Your California Lemon Law Rights

Under California's Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, if your Ram ProMaster has a substantial defect that cannot be repaired after a reasonable number of attempts, you may be entitled to:

  • Full refund of the purchase price
  • Replacement vehicle of comparable value
  • Cash compensation (cash-and-keep settlement)
  • Attorney's fees paid by the manufacturer

Ram ProMaster Lemon Law FAQ

Can I file a California Lemon Law claim on my Ram ProMaster commercial van?

Yes. The Song-Beverly Act covers commercial vehicles purchased or leased with a manufacturer warranty in California. Your ProMaster qualifies if it has a substantial defect the dealer has been unable to repair after a reasonable number of attempts.

What if my ProMaster has been in the shop for weeks at a time?

Under California Lemon Law, if your ProMaster has been out of service for 30 or more cumulative calendar days due to warranty repairs, it may be presumed a lemon. Keep detailed records of every date your vehicle was left at the dealership.

Does my ProMaster transmission problem qualify under Song-Beverly?

Transmission defects that impair the safety, use, or value of your ProMaster are considered substantial defects under Song-Beverly. Erratic shifting and neutral drops are safety-related issues that strongly support a lemon law claim.

Can I get a refund for aftermarket upfitting on my lemon ProMaster?

Under Song-Beverly, you are entitled to restitution of the purchase price plus collateral charges. Aftermarket modifications may be recoverable as incidental damages if they were necessary for the vehicle intended use and were rendered worthless by the defect.
