MY 2012 RAM 1500 HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP SEVEN TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR FOR ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. THE ORIGINAL PROBLEMS WERE RELATED TO THE PCM WHICH WOULD SHORT OUT AND CAUSE MY VEHICLE TO OPERATE IN ONLY ONE GEAR. THIS PROBLEM WAS FIXED FINALLY BY REPLACING THE PCM AND VARIOUS OTHER PARTS. MY TRUCK RECENTLY HAD THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE SENSOR, RIGHT HEADLIGHT, AND FUEL PUMP CONTROL GO OUT ALL AROUND THE SAME TIME WHICH MADE IT DIFFICULT FOR MY TRUCK TO START AND WHEN IT DID START IT SOUNDED ANEMIC AND WOULD OFTEN HAVE ALERTS GOING OFF. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMED THAT THE TIPM WAS THE CAUSE OF THE FUEL PUMP PROBLEMS AND NOW I AM WONDERING IF IT IS THE ROUTE OF ALL THE OTHER PROBLEMS. THIS MOST RECENT REPAIR COST ME $1000 DOLLARS AND WELL OVER $100 IN ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION ARRANGEMENTS. MY TRUCK IS ONLY TWO AND A HALF YEARS OLD WITH 50K MILES ON IT. I SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THIS MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS NEW OF A VEHICLE. CHRYSLER AND RAM HAVE A WELL DOCUMENTED HISTORY OF RECENT PROBLEMS WITH THE TIPM ACROSS VARIOUS VEHICLES AND AN INVESTIGATION NEEDS TO BE CONDUCTED AND CUSTOMERS NEED TO BE COMPENSATED FOR THE PROBLEMS THIS PART HAS CAUSED.

THE RAM1500 WAS BEING STARTED AND PUT IN REVERSE THEN DRIVE AND IT MAKES A GRINDING NOISE. STARTED GETTING WORSE AND FAMILY MEMBERS WOULD NOTICE THE NOISE WHEN LEAVING THEIR HOMES. THEN ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO (JUNE 2015) WE TOOK IT IN TO DODGE AND THEY HEARD THE PROBLEM AND SAID THEY HAD CONTACTED THE ENGINEERS AND JUST KEEP AN EYE ON IT. NO FIXING OF ANY KIND. NOW EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, AS IT SHIFTS GEARS IT CLONKS INTO GEAR. THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT ALWAYS SHIFT PROPERLY. IT STAYS IN A GEAR LONGER THAN IT SHOULD. YOU CAN HEAR THE GEARS NOT PROPERLY SHIFTING. THE BRAKES ON THE TRUCK DONT SEEM TO STOP FAST ENOUGH. TAKING TRUCK IN FOR THAT NEXT WEEK.

WHEN DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 25MPG DOWN A RESIDENTIAL STREET, I HEARD A SCRAPE AND A SLIGHT THUD TOWARDS THE REAR OF MY TRUCK.I IMMEDIATELY STARTED TO TRY TO SLOW DOWN AND PULL OVER BUT THERE WAS A LOSS OF BRAKES AND I HAD TO PUSH THE BRAKE ALMOST TO THE FLOOR TO GET IT TO STOP. I DID GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP AND CHECKED AROUND THE CAR FOR THE PROBLEM. MY LEFT REAR BRAKE CALIPER WAS HANGING DOWN AND THE FLUID WAS LEAKING OUT. UPON CLOSE INSPECTION, BOTH OF THE CALIPER PINS WERE MISSING.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED SHAKING AND THEN THE TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON. BEFORE I COULD PULL INTO A GAS STATION THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF ON ME. I TURNED THE KEY AND THE CAR WOULD NOT TURNOVER. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO MY HOUSE FOR THE NIGHT AND THEN TO MY MECHANIC THE NEXT MORNING. HE COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AND THAT'S WHEN I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. IT TOOK THEM 2-3 DAYS TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. WHAT THEY FOUND WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THIS IS HOW THEY STATED IT ON THE INVOICE: 29303 NO START P0688 ASD CIRCUIT FAULT, FOUND FUSE M19 BLOWN- REPLACED AND ATTEMPTED TO START- FUSE BLEW AGAIN. TRACED ASD CIRCUIT. FOUND IGNITION COIL #5 MELTED. TESTED FURTHER, FOUND #5 SPARK PLUGS FOULED AND CIRCUIT K16 SHORTED TO GROUND. REPLACED SPARK PLUGS, IGNITION INSUFFICIENT IONIZATION FAULT SET DIA AS A PCM WITH INTERNAL DRIVER FAULT CAUSED BY SHORT, REPLACED AND PROGRAMMED PCM. THIS OF COURSE HAPPENED 5 DAYS AFTER MY WARRANTY EXPIRED, GRANTED I DID NOT EVEN HAVE 30,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME.

HAD AIR BAG DASH WARNING LIGHT REPAIRED AT DEALER. AFTER 3 MONTHS LIGHT CAME BACK ON. MY FEAR IS THE AIR BAG WILL DEPLOY ANYTIME.

MY RAM 1500 WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, 60 MPH AND ABOVE, HANDLES FINE UNTIL I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD WHICH CAUSES THE TRUCK TO VIBRATE TERRIBLY AND IT LOOSES CONTROL AND REQUIRES TO TAKE THE FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR TO GET THE TRUCK UNDER CONTROL. IT VIBRATES OUT OF IT'S LANE AND IF EXTREMLY DANGEROUS. I THOUGHT IT WAS TIRES SO I NEVER COMPLAINED BUT AFTER PUTTING NEW TIRES ON MY TRUCK AND THE DANGEROUS VIBRATION WOULD STILL OCCUR AFTER HITTLING A BUMP IN THE ROAD, I SEARCHED ON LINE AND FOUND THAT OTHER PEOPLE WITH RAM TRUCKS HAVE BEEN HAVING THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS. IS DODGE DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS TERRIBLE PROBLEM?

2012 DODGE RAM 1500. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO A DEFECTIVE VEHICLE RECALL. *SMD THE CONSUMER DID NOT STATE WHAT THE ISSUE WAS. HOWEVER, THE DEALER TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK AS A TRADE-IN AND NOT A BUY BACK. *JB

MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCED ERRATIC DRIVING, BROUGHT TO DEALER STATED MY RACK AND PINION FAILED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. MY VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF RECALL, WHICH I DON'T UNDERSTAND, THIS VEHICLE FAILED IN A MAJOR WAY WHICH ENDANGERED ME AND MY FAMILY AND I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED BY MANUFACTURER. SAD THING ABOUT THIS DOES MY VEHICLE HAVE TO BE IN A CRASH, FIRE AND FATALITY TILL SOMETHING IS DONE! THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I WENT TO START THE TRUCK WHILE IN PARK AFTER HAVING ALREADY DRIVEN THE TRUCK APPROXIMATELY 1 HOUR PRIOR. UPON TURNING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION OF SOME KIND. SMOKE BEGAN APPEARING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. THE TRUCK DID NOT HAVE ANY POWER. I OPENED THE HOOD OF THE TRUCK, AND FOUND THAT THE BATTERY HAD CATASTROPHICALLY EXPLODED. TWO OF THE PLASTIC SIDEWALLS WERE COMPLETELY BLOWN OUT AND RIPPED OPEN. ON ONE SIDE THE LEAD INTERIOR COULD BE SEEN MISSHAPEN AND LEANING OUT TOWARDS THE EXPOSED SIDE. BOTH TOP CAPS WERE BLOWN CLEAR OF THE BATTERY. BATTERY ACID COVERED THE GENERAL VICINITY OF THE EXPLOSION. THE ACID ALSO RAN DOWN THROUGH THE UNDERCARRIAGE AND ONTO THE PAVEMENT.

CERTAIN ANGLES OF THE SUN IN MORNING OR AFTERNOON CAUSE A REFLECTION ON THE WINDSHIELD FROM THE DASHBOARD WHICH MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THE ROAD. PRIMARILY WITH A DARK BACKGROUND WHEN TRAVELING THROUGH A NEIGHBORHOOD WITH TREES OR BUILDINGS. THE GLARE OFF THE TOP OF THE DASHBOARD TO THE WINDSHIELD JUST MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THE ROAD.

WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE I HAD TO STOP SUDDENLY FOR A ANOTHER VEHICLE WHO HAD CUT ME OFF AND I HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE RIGHT FRONT BRAKE STICKING AND CAUSING FRICTION AND A BURNING SMELL...THIS HAS BEEN AN OFF AND ON PROBLEM WHEN EVER I HAVE TO SUDDENLY STOP. I HAD HAD THE OIL CHANGED AND TIRES ROTATED BUT WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE TECH THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKE.

WHILE MY SON WAS DRIVING OUR TRUCK DOWN THE ROAD AT NO MORE THAN 20 MPH THE SUNROOF SUDDENLY EXPLODED INTO THE CAB OF THE TRUCK. GLASS WENT EVERYWHERE. LUCKILY NOTHING (GLASS) EMBEDDED IN ANYTHING BUT HIS HAND.

VEHICLE STARTING SHAKING A LOT AND OVER A MONTH PERIOD IT WORE OUT MY FRONT TWO TIRES, I HAD TO REPLACE BOTH TIRES (ALIGNMENT / BALANCE WAS CONDUCTED). THE 2 NEW TIRES WERE PLACED ON THE BACK AND NOW THE OLD BACK TIRES ARE IN FRONT AND THEY'RE STARTING TO WEAR OUT AS WELL AND THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE STARTING TO SHAKE. NOT SURE IF THE SUSPENSION IS BAD, THE VEHICLE WAS NEVER INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENT OR ANYTHING HAS BEEN HIT. THE TRUCK IS IMMACULATE CONDITION OTHER THAN THE FRONT SUSPENSION IS SHAKING.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE WIPERS STOPPED WORKING, NO VISIBLY AT ALL!!!! TURNS OUT ITS THE POWER CONTROL MODULE, AKA THE FUSE BOX. NOT THE WIPER MOTOR, SWITCH ETC... NO WAY TO PREDICT WHEN IT WILL GO. SUPER DANGEROUS!!!

THE SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING. IT WAS A NICE DAY AND WAS NOT HIT BY AN OBJECT. SHARDS OF GLASS WAS SENT EVERYWHERE IN THE VEHICLE AND CAUSED INJURY.

THIS VEHICLE WITH A 36 GALLON GAS TANK MAKES A THUMP NOISE A FEW SECONDS AFTER THE VEHICLE STOPS WHEN THE TANK IS BETWEEN APPROXIMATELY 1/4 AND 3/4 FULL. WHEN FILLED THE NOISE STOPS OR WHEN GAS IS BELOW 1/4. THE DEALER CHANGED A PART IN THE LOWER STEERING COLUMN AS THAT WAS THEIR DIAGNOSIS AND SAID A PART WAS FOUND WORN BUT THE NOISE STILL EXISTS AND IS COMMONLY FOUND ON THE INTERNET RAM FORUMS FOR THESE VEHICLES WITH THIS SIZE GAS TANK.

IGNITION ISSUES. HIT POT HOLE OR BUMP AND TRUCK WILL DIE LOSING ALL POWER. CAN WIGGLE KEY IN IGNITION WHILE TRUCK IS RUNNING AND TRUCK WILL LOSE POWER.

WHEN FIRST I GOT THE DODGE RAM 2012 AT ANCIRA FORD IT WAS FINE AFTER LIKE ABOUT A MONTH OR SO I WAS DRIVING THE TRUCK AND THE BREAKS FELT VERY LOOSE I ALMOST CRUSH WITH MY THREE KIDS AND I CALL THE ANCIRA FORD AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THE ISSUE THE TRUCK STAYED THERE FOR LIKE ABOUT A WEEK AND THEY NEVER FELT THE BREAKS AND THEN I GOT IT BACK AND RIGHT THERE AND THEN IT DID THE SAME THING SO I TOOK IT AGAIN AND IT STAY THERE LIKE ANOTHER WEEK AND THAT'S WHEN THEY TOLD ME THAT IT DID IT TO THEM TOO THEY PUT SOME NEW PARTS BUT THEY DIDN'T WORK IT STILL DOES THE SAME THING I ALMOST CRASH YESTURDAY WITH MY THREE KIDS CAN U HELP I AM SICK AND TIRED OF THE TRUCK THAT THE BREAKS DON'T WORK.

BACKING UP BRAKES WOULD NOT WORK. THEN THEY WORK .

DRIVING ALONG HIGHWAY AND ALL OF A SUDDEN TRUCK STARTS TO FISHTAIL OUT OF CONTROL FROM THE REAR, CAUSING ME TO GO INTO THE DITCH IN ONE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY THEN COMING OUT TO GO ACROSS THE INTERSTATE THEN LAND IN THE MEDIAN DITCH. FORTUNATELY I HIT NO ONE AND NO ONE WAS INJURED EXCEPT SCARING ME TILL I DON'T LIKE DRIVING MUCH ANYMORE. THE DAMAGES WERE MINOR LOSS OF THE INSERTS TO THE LOCKED RIMS WHICH WERE BROCKEN OFF.

WHEN STEERING AT ANY SPEED THE STEERING WHEEL SEEMS TO STUD-ER OR GET STICKY AT TIMES AS YOU TURN LEFT OR RIGHT. DEALER SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE STEERING BUT THEY GREASED THE FRONT END, SEEMS TO BE BETTER. WHEN AT LOW OR HIGH HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND APPLYING THE BRAKES NORMALLY NOT IN A EMERGENCY STOPPING SITUATION, THE FRONT END AND STEERING WHEEL SHAKE VIOLENTLY. STATED AROUND 30,000 MILES THE DRIVER SIDE PARKING LIGHTS OR RUNNING LIGHTS FRONT AND REAR ARE OFF AND NOT WORKING, DIRECTIONAL AND BRAKE LIGHTS SEEM FINE.

WELL FOR STARTERS THE AIR BAG LIGHT COME. TOOK IT BACK THEY SAID NOTHING WRONG HAD A BOTTLE UNDER SEAT.OK WHATEVER THAN TIME GOES ON AIR BAG LIGHT STILL ON.TAKE IT BACK.THEY REPLACE THE AIR BAG BRAIN SO IM TOLD. LIGHTS OFF FOR ABOUT A COUPLE WEEKS.THEN COMES BACK ON. IM SO TRIED OF DEALING WITH THIS. AND THEN I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE TIRES WHICH GOT ROTATED LIKE THERE SUPPOSED TOO. THEY WORE OUT ON THE INSIDE. I WAS TOLD BY ONE PLACE IT NEED A FRONT END ALIGNMENT. SO I PROCEED TO GET ONE AND THEY HAD TOLD ME MY CAMBER ALIGNMENT BOLT WAS BENT AND IT NEED TO BE DEALT WITH A THE DEALER, BECAUSE IT COULD BE A DEFECT. SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THE SAID THEY DID THE ALIGNMENT AND IT WAS FIXED.I HOPE SO NEVER GOT IT CHECKED AGAIN. I DONT HOLD MY BREATHE FOR THAT. THEN MY SUSPENSION LEANS TO THE RIGHTSIDE JUST A LITTLE BUT NOTHINGS WRONGS SO IM TOLD BY THE DEALER. AND MY DASH LIGHTS USED TO COME ON AND FLASH AND THE RADIO WAS OVERHEATING HAD TO GET A NEW ON. KEEP IN MIND THE WAS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD WHEN THIS ALL STARTED AND I BROUGHT BRAND NEW WITH ONLY 5 MILES ON IT FROM MY TEST DRIVE. AND IM THE ONLY OWNER AND ITS THREE YRS OLD NOW, WITH THE SAME CONTINUING PROBLEMS. THEY DEALER SAYS THERES NOTHING WRONG BS.....

GETTING OFF THE FREEWAY I LET GO OF THE GAS PEDAL TO COAST TO A COMPLETE STOP. WITHOUT WARNING THE TRUCK SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OFF RAMP. STARTS RIGHT UP BUT MAKES A NOISE AS IF YOU WERE STARTING A COLD DIESEL ENGINE. IT'S HAPPENED 5 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS AND THE DEALER COULD FIND OR FIX THE ISSUE.

2012 DODGE RAM 1500 CREW CAB 4X4, WOULD STALL WHEN DRIVING AT SLOWER SPEEDS AROUND 10-20 MPH LIKE WHEN IN A TRAFFIC JAM,,(HAPPENED TO ME AND INTERSTATE 75) HAPPENED TO ME ON INTERSTATE 75) IT WILL EVEN STALL WHEN IDLING JUST PARKED OR SITTING AT A RED LIGHT, NOT ALL THE TIME JUST OUT OF THE BLUE, YOU WAIT 5/10 MINUTES STARTS BACK UP LIKE NOTHING EVER WAS WRONG ,,,TOOK IT IN TO THE LOCAL DEALER 3 TIMES ABOUT TO BE THE 4TH ,,, THE 1ST TIME THEY (DEALER) COULDNT FIND ANYTHING WRONG??? 2ND TIME THEY (DEALER) SAID IT WAS THE IGNITION CONTROL MODULE AND HAD TO RESET THE KEYS,, A WEEK LATER SAME THING CALLED THE DEALER AND INFORMED THEM THEY TOLD ME TO TRY THE OTHER KEY IT SEEMS TO WORK FINE FOR ALMOST A YEAR NOW BUT RIGHT BACK TO THE SAME THING STALLING AT LOWER SPEEDS OR JUST IDLING WHEN YOU TRY TO START IT ,IT'S ALMOST LIKE THE IGNITION IS STUCK?? YOU WAIT 5/10 MINUTES STARTS UP LIKE NOTHING EVER WAS WRONG ???? IT COULD BE DANGEROUS IF IT STALLS OUT ON THE HIGHWAY

I HAD MY FIRST BRAND NEW TRUCK FOR ONLY ABOUT A WEEK WHEN I NOTICED A SLAPPING TO THE FLOOR PAN ON DRIVERS SIDE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND AFTER MAKING THEM GO FOR A TEST DRIVE, THEY DECIDED TO CHECK INTO IT AND FOUND THE E BRAKE CABLE LOOSE. THEIR FIX WAS TO SIMPLY REROUTE IT. THREE DAYS LATER I GOT THE TRUCK BACK WITH IT STILL DOING IT. A WHILE LATER I TOOK IT BACK IN FOR THE SAME NOISE AND REMINDED THEM WHAT THEY DID. THEY STATED THERE WAS NOTHING MORE THEY COULD DO WITH IT. NEXT ONE WON'T BE A DODGE.

THE AIRBAG FAULT SENSOR KEEPS COMING ON AND OFF. I BROUGHT BACK TOT HE DEALERSHIP ONCE AND THEY REPAIRED IT BUT IT STILL COMES ON EVERY SO OFTEN BUT DOESN'T STAY ON. I AM CONCERNED THAT THERE MAY BE AN ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAG EVEN AFTER THE DEALERSHIP FIXED THE ISSUE.

WELL MY TRUCK VIBRATES AT SPEEDS OF 70 TO 85 AND THE DEALER KEEPS SAYING NOTHING IS WRONG AND I AM SO ANGRY I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW TRUCK WITH 20 MILES ON IT AND IT DRIVES LIKE AND OLD TRUCK

WHEN DRIVING OR DIPS OR SMALL HOLES ON THE ROAD THE TRUCK SHIFTS HARD TO RIGHT AND LEFT EVERY TIME.HAD FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT DONE PROBLEM STILL OCCURS .CAN'T BELIEVE OUT OF 600,000 VEHICLES NO RECALL OR BY BACK ON MY 2012 RAM.WHEN THEY SPECIFICALLY LISTED 2012 AS ONE OF THE YEARS THAT GOT RECALLED.I EXPECT A RECALL AND ACCOMMODATION.

TOOK TRUCK TO COPPUS MOTORS TIFFIN,OHIO ON 4/21/2015 DUE TO FRONT LEFT OF VEHICLE MAKING EXCESSIVE ROAD NOISE AND WANTED TO KNOW IF IT WAS FROM THE TIRE, OR SOMETHING WRONG WITH FRONT END. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY CHECKED BEARINGS AND SUSPENSION AND ALL CHECKED OK. WAS TOLD BY CHRYSLER TO HAVE A CERTIFIED DEALERSHIP FOR GOODYEAR CHECK TIRES, AT THAT TIME THEY ADVISED ME, THE FRONT END MUST BE OUT OF ALIGNMENT.TOOK TRUCK TO INDEPENDANT FRONT END ALIGNMENT BUSINESS, TO HAVE ALIGNMENT CHECKED AFTER PURCHASING NEW TIRES. TOE AND CAMBER WERE BOTH OUT AND WERE ADJUSTED. AFTER 3 WKS. TIME, FRONT END ALIGNMENT WAS OUT AGAIN. SAME BUSINESS, REALIGNED AGAIN. 2WKS LATER TOOK TO COPPUS MOTORS AND IT WAS OUT OF ALIGNMENT AGAIN, DEALERSHIP ALIGNED IT. 3WKS LATER TOOK BACK TO COPPUS MOTORS AS REQUESTED BY DEALERSHIP TO CHECK ALIGNMENT AND IT WAS OUT AGAIN. MY NEW TRUCK TIRES ARE NOW SHOWING EXCESSIVE WEAR AND ARE GOING TO SOON NEED REPLACED, AND TRUCK IS STILL NOT FIXED YET. AT THIS TIME, COPPUS MOTORS IS UNSURE HOW TO REPAIR ALIGNMENT SO IT WILL HOLD. SINCE THIS ALL STARTED I HAVE ONLY ACCUMULATED 4,000 MI. TO HAVE ANOTHER SET OF TIRES ALREADY SHOWING WEAR AND NEEDING REPLACEMENT SOON.

MAKES A POPPING SOUND ON THE FRONT LEFT SIDE.

FAILURE OF TIRES ON 2012 DODGE RAM 1500 TO STOP VEHICLE IN STATED DISTANCE WHEN ROADWAY IS WET. NOTIFIED DEALERSHIP TWICE AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. THESE ARE GOODYEAR TIRES.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON THE DASHBOARD AND STAYS ON FOR A WHILE SOMETIMES GOES OFF THEN COMES RIGHT BACK ON. MY WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID MESSAGE COMES ON EVEN WHITH A FULL TANK OF FLUID. MY DRIVER SIDE WINDOW GOES UP AND DOWN ON ITS OWN SOMETIMES. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THE "DEATH WOBBLE" COMING FROM THE FRONT END WHEN TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IF YOU GUYS COULD ENLIGHTEN ME ON ALL OF THIS THAT WOULD BE GREAT BECAUSE I SEARCHED MY VIN NUMBER AND NO RECALLS CAME UP. I DON'T WANT TO BE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AND MY STEERING SUDDENLY GOES. ALSO GOD FOR BID I GET INTO AN ACCIDENT I WANT TO MAKE SURE MY AIRBAGS WILL DEPLOY.

HAVE HAD ISSUES ON STEERING STRAIGHT AND VIBRATION AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE STEERING WHEEL HAS NOT BEEN IN ALIGNMENT SINCE BEFORE THE DEALER ALIGNMENT WAS DONE. TIRES SQUEAL AT TURNS AT SLOW SPEED, I HAVE HAD THE TIRES BALANCED ROTATED, I HAVE HAD THE TRUCK ALIGNED BY THE DEALER WITH NO EFFECTIVE DIFFERENCE IN THE STEERING OR THE WEAR ON THE TIRES.

I HAVE TRIED CONTACTING DODGE. I HAVE NOT RECIEVED ANY LETTERS OR A WRITTEN NOTICE ON MY RAM 1500 PICKUP. I AM STATIONED IN KOREA AND PURCHASED MY VEHICLE FROM A DEALER IN HUNTSVILLE ALABAMA. I HAVE THE TRUCK WITH ME. WHAT SHOULD I DO WHEN I GET NO ANSWERS FROM THE MAKER. I DO NOT WANT TO BE DRIVING A VEHICLE HERE THAT HAS A PROBLEM FOR WHICH I CANNOT GET IT FIXED AND MAY KILL ME OR SOMEONE ELSE IN KOREA. THE NEW CAR SALES PEOPLE HERE IN THE PX ARE NO HELP AND ALL THEY WANT TO DO IS SELL YOU A NEW CAR.

MY ABS AND BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS BOTH CAME ON IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ( DASH ) WHILE DRIVING. CAN THERE POSSIBLY BE A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM.

AT ABOUT 18000 MILES ON VEHICLE IT SUDDENLY STALLED. THROTTLE BODY CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON, RPM DROPPED TO ALMOST ZERO. PUMPING GAS PEDAL HAD NO EFFECT. CONDITION LASTED ABOUT 15 TO 25 SECONDS. TOOK TRUCK TO DEALER AND WAS INFORMED IT NEEDED A THROTTLE BODY SOFTWARE UPDATE. THIS WAS DONE. ALSO WAS PERFORMED AGAIN LATER. THE STALLING IS INTERMITTENT SOME TIMES NOT HAPPENING FOR WEEKS THEN AGAIN IT WILL HAPPEN UP TO 3 TIMES IN A WEEK.BIT ONCE STALLED ON MY LADY AS SHE WAS CROSSING AN INTERSECTION . VEHICLE NOW HAS 77000 MILES ON ODOMETER . I THOUGHT THIS JUST A HASSLE UNTIL ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO. AS I WAS MERGING ON TO THE INTERSTATE AT ABOUT 65 MPH IN FRONT OF A BIG TRUCK THE VEHICLE STALLED FOR A LONG PERIOD. THE BIG RIG WAS WITHIN A VERY FEW FEET OF MY VEHICLE BEFORE ENGINE STARTED RUNNING AGAIN. NEEDLESS TO SAY THIS SCARED ME BIG TIME. THIS WAS WHEN I STARTED TO LOOK FOR SOMEONE TO BE IN MY CORNER ON THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED BY DODGE DEALERSHIP REGULARLY SINCE NEW. EACH TIME I HAVE REPORTED STALLS AND AT ONE TIME HAD A CASE OPENED WITH CHRYSLER. I AM TOLD THEY FIND NOTHING AND THEY ONLY HAVE MY WORD THIS IS HAPPENING. THIS FROM DEALER AND CHRYSLER

AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS GO OUT WHILE RIDING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. OCCURS IN COLD WEATHER MORE THAN WARM WEATHER DEALERSHIP CANNOT FIND PROBLEM NEVER HAPPENS WHEN TAKEN IN.

DEFECTIVE MANIFOLD BOLTS. CAUSING FUMES TO GET INSIDE CAB OF TRUCK.
