    I don't know, and mine is rusting too!!

    I don't know any known issue about the chrome bumper rusting but I believe this one is made up of plastic. It could be rail dust from the place it was shipped. Have you tried contacting the dealership?
  3. Guest4455
    Mine are the same

    Does tsunami goes along with earthquake.

    I think there should be a recall on all 09, 10 bumpers, it seems most if not all Rams have this problem. This completely unacceptable. BUYER BEWARE..

    I have 4K miles on my 2010 Dodge Ram.  The bumpers are starting to rust, some spots are as large as a dime.

    I have a 2010 ram 4 mths old with rust on the bupers and some pitting on the body.  THey claim rail dust.  I have owned 7 dodge Rams and never seen this.  I currently have a complaint in with Chrysler.  We need to stick together and have them replace our bumpers.  I have a Laramie and paid $50 K for the truck.  They need to do something!.

    I have talked with the dealer, they said that the warranty replacment bumper rusted aswell.
    They said dodge is thinking of what to do. Most likley new run of bumpers that have been properly chromed, then they will call or send a letter out to book in the truck. Dodge will pay the dealer to replace them, so it's in there best intrest to call all customers with effcted trucks. Mine is a 2009 Laramie, grill and bumpers rusting.

    Mine too.  Purchased it in December 09, noticed it soon after.  It is a 2010 model.  Also have rust spots on all painted surfaces.  Service manager says might be rail rust.  A different service guy says maybe rust from my brakes.  I ask why then is my seat bolt rusty and my door seal.  They are replacing my bolt, seal, bumpers (both rusty) clay barring painted surfaces and my truck will start in gear (shouldn't) and sometimes just won't go into gear (should).  ARGH!!!

    I'm having the same problem on the '06 Ram 1500 I just bought in June.  ONLY the front bumper.  From the first day I noticed it, it's gotten worse every day.  In just 2 weeks, the rust has doubled.  Today I used some Chrome polish and easily removed the rust, but I know from past experiences it will be back in a week or two.  I wish I could afford an aftermarket Off Road bumper. 


    One of the first things I did was clay bar the whole truck, then polish, then wax.  Paint still looks great.

     my bumper rusted after the first week of ownership! am on the process of trying contact dodge to see if they will replace it..... i will keep you posted

    My front bumper on my 2008 Ram is rusting too.  Dealer will only buff and clear coat it.  And Chrysler backs that up, they will not replace it.

     My dealer in Fargo, ND told me it is covered under recall so you are good to go just go in and be nice to them they will take care of you. Chrysler will not be bullied if you are nice to them they will take care of you if you freak out on them they will not waste their time. I once had a gas tank replaced by Chrysler on a 05 Durango with 100,000 miles because even though it was not part of a recall it did the same thing as the ones that were. Dodge will take care of you just go in and stop worrying.

    I live in georgia. nothing rusts here. i bought a dodge ram 1500 chrome edition and love it! i used to live in ohio and hate that everything rusts up there eventually. i have a 1997 jeep grand cherokee with zero rust anywhere on it. looking to sell it so i can get my wife a new one. chrome edition!

     also have 2011 the front and back chrome is rusting , thay say it from stone chips and it s not covered , just got in jan this year ,

    I have a 09 SLT my bumpers both front and back are rusting went to dealership they said Chrysler would not replace them or do anything, I called Chrysler Canada and the customer service lady was useless.


    She said the field rep denied the claim because I am 9 thousand km over my bumper to bumper warranty and that there was notghing that could be done and the decision was final.


    I told her my truck has been in many times for recalls why was this not addressed then when the dealer had it. So am now fighting with them to see what they will do.

    I have a 2010 Dodge Ram Truck (bought in June 2010) and the front & back bumpers are rusting and have pit marks. Dealership here in PA said Chrysler is not replacing them and they are to buff out the rust. That's a load of c**p! All that money for a new truck with junk bumpers!
