Have a 2022 how do we find out?
I have the 2019 1500 and there has been at least 6 recalls since I got it & that DOES NOT include: back camera stops working whenever, the radio has low sound upon start up and I have to go from am, to satellite back to fm to get it to work. There is a clunk upon start up occasionally. The shifting seems a little off too and I only have 38k miles. Has this issue from the beginning. BRAND NEW.
