What I Tell Customers About the RAM Active Noise Control System

Hi, I’m Brandon Delaney, Service Advisor here at NewGen Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Clinton with over a year of experience helping drivers from Clinton and neighboring towns like Tecumseh and Saline get the most out of their vehicles. One feature I often get asked about, especially from folks cruising around Manchester or Napoleon, is the RAM Active Noise Control system. It’s a smart bit of technology that really makes a difference in how peaceful your drive feels, and I want to break down exactly how it works, why it matters, and what you can expect if you own a RAM truck or are thinking about one.

If you’re in the Clinton area and want to chat more about this system or see it in action, give us a call at (517) 456-6555 or visit us at 1111 W Michigan Ave, Clinton, MI 49236. We’re here to help you experience the difference it makes firsthand.

Let me tell you about what exactly the RAM Active Noise Control system is and why it matters for drivers in places like Jerome or Britton who often deal with the hustle and bustle of everyday road noise.

This system is designed to tackle the kind of noise that often gets under your skin during a drive—exhaust rumble and engine sounds. Unlike passive methods like soundproofing materials that just block noise, this tech actively listens and responds. There are four tiny microphones built into the vehicle’s headliner that constantly pick up on the noises coming from the exhaust and engine. These mics send what they hear to an onboard frequency generator, which then creates sound waves that are the exact opposite of those noises. These “anti-noise” waves play through your audio system’s speakers and effectively cancel out the unwanted sounds. It’s a bit like noise-canceling headphones but for your whole truck cab.

From my experience working with customers driving RAM trucks to places like Milan or Adrian, this technology makes a real difference at idle and while driving. It helps create a quieter cabin environment, so conversations are easier, music sounds clearer, and fatigue from constant engine noise is reduced. If you’re used to the noise in traditional pickups, you’ll notice just how smooth and peaceful your ride can become.

One neat detail about how RAM designed this system is that it automatically turns off if you lower your windows. That makes sense because outside noise floods in, so the noise-canceling waves wouldn’t be effective. But when the windows are up, especially during cold Michigan winters in Clarklake or summer trips around Bridgewater, the system is hard at work keeping things calm.

Now, you might wonder how this compares to other systems out there. Some competitors offer passive sound insulation or expensive acoustic glass, but the RAM Active Noise Control system is unique in how it combines active listening technology with your vehicle’s existing audio system. This means you’re not just muffling noise but actively canceling it. For families commuting from places like Addison or Chelsea, this means more comfort on those long drives to work or school.

Another important thing to know about this system is that it operates automatically and doesn’t require any input or settings from the driver. You just enjoy the difference without having to fiddle with controls. It’s a subtle but impactful feature that adds to the overall durability and refinement RAM trucks are known for.

Of course, keeping this system working well requires regular maintenance of your vehicle’s audio and electrical systems.
