2000 Dodge Ram complaints

WHILE APPLYING BRAKES AND WITHOUT WARNING VEHICLE WILL PULL TO LEFT OR RIGHT.*AK

LEFT, FRONT HUB BEARING FAILED, WITHOUT WARNING, RESULTING IN NEAR ACCIDENT. DAMAGED LEFT, FRONT HUB BEARING ASSEMBLY, SPINDLE, BRAKE CALIPER, BRAKE ROTOR, BRAKE PADS, ABS BRAKE SENSOR, AND TIRE. THE BRAKE CALIPER WAS THE ONLY THING THAT KEPT THE WHEEL FROM COMING OFF. THIS PART IS NOT SERVICEABLE AND ON PAGE 214 OF THE OWNER'S MANUAL IT IS STATED "FRONT WHELL BEARINGS FOR ALL DODGE RAM TRUCKS ARE SEALED-FOR-LIFE. THEY DO NOT REQUIRE GREASING OR SEAL REPLACEMENT." THIS IS A VERY UNEXPECTED AND COSTLY EXPERIENCE THAT COULD NOT HAVE BEEN PREVENTED WITH REGULAR MAINTENCE BECAUSE IT IS A HIDDEN PROBLEM WITHIN A PART THAT IS "SEALED-FOR-LIFE". THERE ARE MANY OF THESE TRUCKS ON THE HIGHWAYS THAT MAY BE ENCOUNTERING THIS SAME POTENTIAL PROBLEM. THANK YOU.

WHILE TRYING TO ENTER FREEWAY HEARD 3 BELL CHIMES. THEN, HORN STARTED TO SOUND, AND ENGINE HAD SHUT DOWN. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK

AFTER THE VEHICLE IS TURNED ON ENGINE SURGES, CAUSING THE FORWARD MOVEMENT OF APPROXIMATELY 1 TO 1 1/2 INCHES. ALSO, A "GRINDING NOISE" COMING FROM THE REAR OF VEHICLE DURING NORMAL OPERATION. DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDED USE OF A SPECIAL SYNTHETIC OIL AND PERFORMING A SERIES OF MANEUVERS IN A PARKING LOT TO LOOSEN THE CLUTCH. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION / DOCUMENTATION.*AK

I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES WEARING OUT QUICKLY ( HAD THEM RELINED TWICE) AND THE MANUFACTURER WILL NOT HONOR ITS WARRANTY. THE BRAKES ARE VERY UNSAFE.*AK

I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE BUT I AM ONLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE STEERING SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO HAVE IT FIXED THROUGH A CHRYSLER DEALER BUT THEY HAVE RUN OUT OF IDEAS. IT SEEMS THAT IN THE SLIGHTEST WIND OR PASSING TRUCK THE VEHICLE GETS THROWN IN TO ANOTHE LANE OR SHOULDER. I AM INFORMING YOU BECAUSE THERE MAY BE OTHER OWNERS WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND COULD BE IN GREAT DANGER.. THANKS. *AK

WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, HOOD FLEW OPEN BECAUSE SECONDARY LATCH BROKE, VEHICLE AT DEALERSHIP AT THIS TIME. *AK THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCH HAD BENT BACK TOWARDS THE FIREWALL SO THAT IT BECAME TOTALLY INOPERATIVE, THATS WHEN THE PRIMARY LATCH FAILED, THE HOOD OPENED SUDDENLY WITH NO WARNING. *YD

I INSTALLED TIRE CHAINS ON MY VEHICLE AS PERMITTED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL. A LINK ON THE CHAIN BROKE BECAUSE IT WAS RUBBING AGAINST THE LEAF SPRINGS OF THE VEHICLE. THE SPACE BETWEEN THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE AND THE OUTSIDE EDGE OF THE LEAF SPRINGS IS APPROXIMATELY 1 INCH. THIS IS INSUFFICIENT TO SAFELY RUN CHAINS ON THE VEHICLE. WHEN THE CHAINS FAILED - IF THEY HAD WRAPPED AROUND THE AXLE IT VERY LIKELY COULD HAVE CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO BECOME UNCONTROLLABLE. THE MANUFACTURER HAS REFERRED ME TO THE SELLING DEALER. THE SELLING DEALER SAID THEY CANNOT GET ANY GUIDANCE FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THE SELLING DEALER OFFERED THAT I USE CABLE CHAINS INSTEAD. I BOUGHT A SET OF THESE AND THEY, TOO, DON'T FIT WITHOUT RUBBING THE LEAF SPRINGS. THE DEALER ALSO SAID THAT THEY WOULD HONOR THE WARRANTY IF I PURCHASED WHEELS WITH MORE OFFSET (MOVE THE CENTERLINE OF THE WHEEL OUTBOARD OF THE VEHICLE) BUT THEY CANNOT OFFER A RECOMMENDATION FROM DODGE FOR AN AMOUNT OF OFFSET. FOLLOWUPS TO DODGE HAVE PROVEN FRUITLESS. I AM RUNNING FACTORY ORIGINAL TIRES AND CHAINS THAT ARE SIZED TO FIT THOSE TIRES.*AK

WE RECEIVED A LETTER STATING THAT WE WERE NOT GOING FAST ENOUGH FOR AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY. OUR SPEED WAS 65 MILES PER HOUR . ACCORDING TO THE SKID MARKS AND BASED ON THE REPORT FROM THE MISSISSIPPI HIGHWAY PATROL AND THE MISSISSIPPI SHERIFF.*AK

I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE IF I COULD EXCHANGE THIS TRUCK FOR A LIKE ONE AS I CAN'T TRUST THIS TRUCK . THANK YOU. GLENN THOMAS. *AK

ON 08-21-01 OUR TRUCK WAS IN FOR REPAIRS TO THE STEERING COLUMN. AT THAT TIME WE ASKED THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG AND THEY SAID NO. I SAW ON THE NEWS ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2000 DODGE RAM QUAD CAB. THE ABS DID NOT WORK BECAUSE WE SLID ABOUT 70 TO 100 FEET. WE DID GO TO THE PLACE THE TRUCK WAS PURCHASED AND TOLD THEM THAT THE AIR BAGS NOR DID THE ABS WORK THEY HAD NO COMMENT. I WANT SOMEONE TO INVESTIGATE AND FIND OUT IF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OR THE MANUFACTURER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE THINGS NOT WORKING. *AK

ENGINE HAS STALLED TWICE WITHOUT WARNING ON FREEWAY WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ALL ELECTRICAL AND STEERING POWER WAS LOST. IT COULD BE RESTARTED WHILE MOVING. DEALER WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE SOURCE OF PROBLEM. CONSUMER FELT THIS PROBLEM WAS SIMILAR TO FORD TRUCK RECALL IN CA. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER DETAILS.*AK

EXCESSIVE WEAR ON ROTORS THAT I BELIEVE IS UNSAFE AND A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT - MINIMUM ALLOWABLE ROTOR SPEC IS 1.215 - RIGHT SIDE IS 1.166, LEFT SIDE IS 1.164 - ORIGINAL PADS STILL HAVE MORE THAN 1/8 INCH ON EACH OF THE 4 PADS - I WAS GOING TO HAVE PADS CHAGED ON 7/28 AND THAT IS WHEN I WAS ADVISED THAT THE ROTORS HAD TO BE REPLACED - I NEVER HAD A VEHICLE THAT WORE OUT THE ORIGINAL ROTORS BEFORE THE ORIGINAL PADS EVER WORE OUT - I SHOUL BE ABLE TO "TRUE" ROTORS ONCE OR TWICE BEFORE HAVING TO REPLACE THE ROTORS AS LONG AS THE PADS DO NOT WEAR OUT BEFORE REPLACING SAME - MANUFACTURER WILL DO NOTHING - CLAIMS THAT THE 12 MONTH/12,000 MILE WARRANTY IS THEIR TOTAL RESPONSIBILITY IN THIS MATTER - I DISAGREE.*AK

THE PARKING BRAKE ON THIS TRUCK HAS HAD PROBLEMS SINCE I PURCHASED THE TRUCK. THE CABLE HAS COMPLETELY SNAPPED TWICE, CAUSING THE 5-SPEED BLACK TRUCK TO ROLL INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, AND THERE IT SAT ALL NIGHT (WE WERE UNAWARE THE CABLE SNAPPED). THE DEALER DOES NOT KNOW WHY THIS KEEPS HAPPENING, AND THEY DON'T REPORT THE PROBLEM TO THE PARENT COMPANY. I, MYSELF, MADE DAIMEN CHRYSLER OPEN A TICKET, BUT I IMAGINE IT'S CLOSED NOW. THEY ONLY KEEP THEM OPEN FOR A MONTH. THE DEALER (GREG ADAMS) TOLD ME THIS IS THE ONLY TRUCK THAT'S HAD THIS PROBLEM, BUT SINCE HE DIDN'T REPORT THE PROBLEM WITH MY TRUCK, I FIGURE OTHER DEALERS DON'T REPORT THE PROBLEMS THEY SEE, SO WHO KNOWS? I NEVER KNOW WHEN THE BRAKE WILL SNAP, AND ALTHOUGH NO ONE HAS BEEN HURT YET, IT'S AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. I HOPE THAT YOU CAN LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM. THANK YOU.

TRANSMISSION DOES NOT PROPERLY SHIFT INTO DIFFERENT GEARS, CAUSE UNKNOWN. *AK THE CONSUMER HAD BEEN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOR REPAIRS OF BALL JOINTS, POWER STEERING AND THE TRANSMISSION. *YH

AFTER WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON INSTRUMENT PANEL THE OWNER TOOK TO DEALERSHIP ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS .

TRANSMISSION WENT COMPLETELY OUT WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING WHILE DRIVING. CONSUMER HAS CONTACTED DEALER. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER DETAILS.*AK

DODGE RAM 3500 HAS POOR DIRECTIONAL CONTROL WHEN TRAVELING AT SPEEDS GREATER THAN 50 MPH. CONSUMER CANNOT FIND A DEALERSHIP THAT CAN EXAMINE AND CORRECT THE DEFECT. CONSUMER FEELS THIS VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS TO BE OPERATED ON ROAD BECAUSE CONSUMER HAS TO HAVE BOTH HANDS ON STEERING WHEEL AT ALL TIMES. *AK CONSUMER STATES DEALER HAS MADE AN ADJUSTMENT THAT DID NOT HELP. *SLC

CONSUMER WAS GOING 30MPH AND VEHICLE STALLED TWICE. TRANSMISSION SPECALIST SAID PLANITARY GEAR IS NOT WORKING. FIRST AND SECOND GEARS ARE WORKING FINE. *AK THIS VEHICLE HAD NEVER STALL, IT JUST DID NOT MOVE AT ALL WHILE THE MOTOR WAS RUNNING. THE VEHICLE HAD TRANSMISSION PROBLEM.

IN A HEAD-ON COLLISION AT 65 MPH, THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THIS NON-DEPLOYMENT AND RESPONDED, IN PART, THAT IMPACT WAS NOT SUFFICIENT ENOUGH TO CAUSE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT AND THAT BY NOT DEPLOYING, THE MANUFACTURER FEELS THE VEHICLE RESPONDED PROPERLY IN THIS PARTICULAR ACCIDENT. IT SEEMS THAT IN AN ACCIDENT AT THIS HIGH SPEED, THE AIRBAGS SHOULD DEPLOY AND IF THIS ISN'T SUFFICIENT ENOUGH SPEED FOR THE MANUFACTURER, WHY DO THEY INSTALL THE BAGS IN THE FIRST PLACE AND MAKE THE AIR BAG SAFETY FEATURE A BIG PART OF THE BASIS FOR CONSUMERS BUYING A VEHICLE.

THE TRUCK IS OVER CHARGING, CAUSING THE TRUCK TO PRODUCE OVER 18 VOLTS, AND THE DOME AND HEADLIGHTS TO FLICKER ON AND OFF (PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS ON A CURVY ROAD AT NIGHT). VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT DEALERSHIP FOR THREE MONTHS. ALL ATTEMPS TO CORRECT ISSUE WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF DAIMLERCHRYSLER HAVE FAILED. MANY SHOPS WILL NOT TAKE THESE TRUCKS BECAUSE THIS PROBLEM SEEMS UNRESOVABLE. THE VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AND UNSELLABLE. DUE TO THE INCREASING NUMBER OF REPORTED VEHICLES WITH A SIMILAR PROBLEM DAIMLERCHRYSLER HAS ADMITTED THERE IS A SAFETY ISSUE, BUT IS TAKING NO ACTION TO RESOLVE IT AT THIS TIME.

TIRE IS RUBBING AGAINST TIE ROD ENDS AND CAUSING IT TO BURN OR EAT AWAY A QUARTER OF AN INCH AWAY FROM RIM. *AK *SLC
