The freeze plugs on a Dodge Ram 1500 are typically located at the bottom of the engine block. Replacement of these components can be costly as accessing them may necessitate taking the engine out. There are some freeze plugs situated at the front and sides of the engine which also require significant dismantling of the engine. The price for replacing these plugs can vary from $1000 to $1500 depending on the amount of labor involved. Signs of a faulty freeze plug include a milky appearance on the oil cap, engine overheating, white exhaust smoke, and coolant leaks. Freeze plugs are constructed from thin metal and will corrode over time, leading to leaks if left unchecked.
