2014 Ram 1500 complaints

MY TRUCK HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEAR THAT SAID "FUEL INJECTION LOWER THAN EXPECTED. WHEN I WOULD CRANK IT UP, YOU COULD HEAR THE ENGINE RUNNING HARDER THAN IT SHOULD WITH AN AUDIBLE CONSTANT KNOCK. I MADE A COUPLE STOPS AND IT SHUT OFF ON ME JUST BEFORE THE SECOND STOP. I TRIED CRANKING IT UP AGAIN, AND IT STARTED, BUT TOOK AWHILE TO START. AFTER THAT, I WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH WHEN I HEARD A LOUD "BOOM" FROM UNDER THE HOOD. MY TRUCK SHUT DOWN ON ME IN TRAFFIC. LUCKILY, I WAS NOT HIT BY ANY OTHER MOTORISTS AND MADE IT TO AN ADJACENT PARKING LOT.

LAST YEAR THEY DID AN EMISSIONS UPDATE ON MY TRUCK. SINCE THEN THERE IS TERRIBLE ACCELERATOR PEDAL LAG. I ALREADY HAD A DOZEN OR MORE CLOSE CALLS WHEN TRYING TO PULL INTO TRAFFIC.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT A SPEED OF 70 MPH WHEN MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND THE "POWER STEERING FAILURE" NOTIFICATION APPEARED ON MY DASH. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED A RAM DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME I SHOULD HAVE IT TOWED DO TO IT BEING UNSAFE TO DRIVE. AFTER GETTING IT TO THE DEALER, THEY TOLD ME MY POWER STEERING ASSEMBLY ($2400) NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THERE ISN'T A RECALL FOR MY TRUCK. I CONTACTED MY WARRANTY COMPANY AND THEY SAID IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED DUE TO IT BEING A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ON THE ISSUE.

FUEL LEVEL SENDING UNIT STOPPED WORKING. READS EMPTY. APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE.

DRIVERS SIDE REAR AIRBAG GOES FLAT INTERMITTENTLY. THIS MAY HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING OR WHILE PARKED AND NOT RUNNING. THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND ANY LEAKS OR PROBLEMS. WHEN FLAT, EVEN IF COMPRESSOR IS RUNNING , IT WON'T REFILL. IT MAY STAY FLAT FOR MINUTES OR DAYS, AND THROUGH MANY DRIVING CYCLES THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT FILLS AND OPERATES NORMAL. NORMAL OPERATION MAY LAST FROM A FEW HOURS TO WEEKS. THEN IT DOES IT AGAIN. DEALERSHIP CLAIMS IT IS THE AIRPUMP OVERHEATING BUT THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE AS ONLY ONE SHOCK GOES FLAT AND DOESN'T RESPOND WHEN THE PUMP IS RUNNING. MANY PEOPLE REPORT THIS SAME PROBLEM ON THIS YEAR DODGE RAM TRUCK AND HAVE SAID REPLACING THE COMPRESSOR AND VALVE BODY DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. ONE PERSON REPORTED THAT THEY HAD THE CONTROL MODULE RE FLASHED AND IT FIXED THE ISSUE.

AT APPROXIMATELY 60,000 MILES THE FUEL GAGE BECAME ERRATIC AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND HAS BEEN ON SINCE. THE TROUBLE MESSAGE SYSTEM INDICATES A FUEL LEVEL SENSOR FAIL. I RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND A LOT OF OTHER RAM OWNERS INDICATE THIS PROBLEM. IT IS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR REQUIRING THE BED TO BE REMOVED (COST TO REPAIR NEAR $1000). THIS IS ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO POTENTIALLY RUNNING OUT OF GAS WHILE TRAVELING UNLESS THE OWNER IS DILIGENT ABOUT TRACKING MILEAGE AND FILLING UP EACH TIME THE MILAGE REACHES 275 MILES.

SINCE DAY ONE OF BUYING THIS VEHICLE IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR AIR SUSPENSION PROBLEMS SOMETIMES FOR A FEW WEEKS AT A TIME. SEEMS LIKE NO ONE KNOWS HOW TO DIAG THE SYSTEM BECAUSE IT WAS ALWAYS DARTS THROWN AND NO PROBLEMS EVER FIXED, THEY HAVE REPLACED AIRBAGS, COMPRESSOR, CHARGED THE SYSTEM, REPROGRAMMED/CALIBRATED THE SYSTEM AND WHO KNOWS HOW MANY FUSES! IVE GOTTEN AIR SUSPENSION CODES LEFT AND RIGHT WITH COMPRESSOR TEMP CODES... THE MAIN CONCERN IS THE WAY THIS VEHICLE DRIVES WHEN IT FALLS ON BUMP STOPS AND CHANGES THE CAMBER OF THE TIRES ( HAS RUINED A BRAND NEW SET OF TIRES DUE TO INSIDE TIRE WEAR ON BOTH FRONT ) TIRES ARE SCREECHING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, BOUNCES WHILE TURNING AND HITTING SMALL BUMPS... WELL THAT JUST MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE YOU GOT IN A CRASH WHEN IT THROWS YOU AROUND OUT OF SEAT! THATS EVEN AT LOWER SPEEDS AROUND 40-45 MPH! I ABSOLUTELY FEAR FOR MY LIFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND AT FREEWAY SPEEDS ITS JUST PLAYING WITH THE DEVIL. ITS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED BY THIS HORRIBLE AIR SUSPENSION SYSTEM! THE PROBLEM IS NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE... WELL UNLESS IT WAS THEIR FAMILY MEMBER.THE SYSTEM WAS DESIGNED TO FAIL WHEN THEY PUT A COMPRESSOR BEHIND THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL THAT FLINGS WATER, SNOW, SALT AND EVERYTHING ELSE ON THE ROAD RIGHT AT IT AND PUT SOME THIN COVER OVER IT AND SAY IT " PROTECTS " IT! I SURE HOPE THEY DO SOMETHING BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED, BECAUSE ITS NOT FAIR TO ME OR ANY OTHER PERSON TO HAVE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE

ELECTRICAL SEEMS TO HAVE AFFECTED 3 ITEMS ALL WITHIN THE LAST 6MONTHS AT DIFFERENT TIMES: NON-RELATED CATEGORIES -(ONE FOG LIGHT, FRONT AIR BAGS & DASH BOARD DIMMER SWITCH) # 1 - (FOG LIGHT) ONLY PASSENGER SIDE, CHECKED FUSES, WIRING AND BULB - ALL OK, # 2 (DIMMER SWITCH DOES NOT DIM DRIVER SIDE GAUGES/PANEL) AND # 3- AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT/- WARNING SYMBOL/PICTURE SHOWS FRONT AIR BAGS. CHECKED RECALLS, NOTHING REPORTED ON YOUR SITE NOTE: ALL OTHER ELECTRICAL DEVICES ETC ARE IN WORKING ORDER AT THIS TIME (FOG LIGHT - STATIONARY/PERFORMING A WALK AROUND FOR A ROAD TRIP, GAUGE/PANEL- AT A IDLE, AIR BAGS- WHEN I STARTED VEHICLE- WARNING LIGHT APPEARED, AND DIMMER SWITCH - DOES NOT FULLY ENGAGE DIM ONLY DIMS ROOF LIGHT, NOT GAUGES- THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME, HAVE A GOOD DAY!

2014 RAM PICKUP WITH 68K MILES. DRIVING WITH 3/4 TANK OF GAS ON A FREEWAY AT 65 MPH AND THE FUEL GAUGE WENT TO E AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THEN A FUEL LEVEL SENSOR FAIL WARNING POPPED UP. CALLED DEALERSHIP, SAID IT WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND THEY REPLACE A LOT OF THESE A MONTH, BALLPARKED COST TO BE AROUND $1,000. SPOKE TO SEVERAL LOCAL MECHANICS THAT SAID THE EXACT SAME THING, KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE SENSOR THAT REQUIRES THE TANK TO BE DROPPED TO FIX. WHEN TANK IS FULL, TRUCK FUNCTIONS FINE. ONCE TANK DROPS TO APPROX. 3/4 OF A TANK, EVERYTHING COMES BACK (CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, FUEL LEVEL SENSOR FAIL). CHRYSLER CANNOT BE PUTTING INFERIOR PARTS ON THEIR VEHICLES AND EXPECT CONSUMERS TO PAY FOR THEIR GREED.

PURCHASED THIS 2014 DODGE RAM 1500 DOUBLE CAB FROM FREMONT TOYOTA IN 11/2019. OWN 2/24/2020 I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO HAVE A FLAT FIXED AT FIRESTORN TIRE STORE A SALES REPRESENTATIVE WENT OUT TO INSPECT THE TIRE AND SAID IT SHOWED SIGNS OF DRY ROTTEN. AND LOOK AT THE REST OF TIRES AND SAID THEY WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. THEN I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO DEALERSHIP AND SPOKE WITH A SALES MANAGER, HE SAID HE WOULD PASS THE MESSAGE TO APPROPRIATE PERSON. THE RECEPTIONIST TOOK MY NUMBER A GAVE ME THE GENERAL MANAGER NUMBER, WHO I CALLED AND HE SAID UNFORTUNATELY A 30 DAY WARRANTY OWN USED VEHICLE AFTER I EXPLAINED WHAT WAS GOING, TELLING HIM, I NEVER HAD TO REPLACE TIRES OWN PREVIOUS CARD WITH IN 2 1/2 MONTHS. NO RESPONSE. HIS NAME IS [XXX], PHONE NUMBER [XXX]. I WAS ALSO TOLD BY A SHOP MANAGER THAT I SHOULD HAVE INSPECTED THE VEHICLE MY SELF. I TOLD HIM THATS NOT MY JOB. HE WAS VERY RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL. I DON'T HAVE 800.00 TO 900 DOLLARS. AND I AM A DISABLED VETERAN AND NEED TO GO TO HOSPITAL OWN A MONTHLY BASE TO HAVE MY BLOOD CHECKED BECAUSE I AM OWN WARFARIN A BLOOD THINNER MEDICATION. WITH TIRES THAT ARE DETERIORATING I CAN'T DO THAT. ARE THEY ALLOWED TO SALE A VEHICLE WITH 6 YEAR OLD TIRES OWN IT. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I STARTED HEARING A KNOCKING SOUND FROM THE ENGINE. I TOOK IT IN TO THE SHOP AND FOUND THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL OTHER RECALL ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE. CONSIDERING I USED MY VEHICLE FOR TYPICAL DRIVING, AND KEEP IT MAINTAINED WITH REGULARLY SCHEDULED SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGES, TIRES ROTATIONS AND FLUID REFILLS THAT IT SHOULDN'T HAVE HAD ANY OF THE CURRENT ISSUES WRONG WITH IT. THE REP TRIED TO PROCLAIM THAT THE KNOCKING SOUND CAME FROM NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON THE ENGINE. I STRONGLY DISAGREED WITH HIM, THE $5500 ESTIMATED REPAIR COST AND DECIDED TO VOICE MY CONCERNS WITH COMING ON HERE TO REPORT IT. THE MOST ALARMING THING IS THAT THEY TRIED TO PRESSURE ME INTO STARTING THE REPAIR OF THE VEHICLE WHILE STATING THAT THEY NEEDED TO GET INTO THE ENGINE FIRST BEFORE THEY COULD DETERMINE IF THAT WAS ALL WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. I'LL NEVER BUY A DODGE AGAIN AFTER THIS EXPERIENCE.

FUEL SENSOR FAILURE AT APPROXIMATELY 62,000 MILES. AT THE TIME OF OCCURRENCE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH AFTER COMPLETION OF A TURN. AFTER RESEARCH IT WAS DISCOVERED TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM IN 2014 DODGE RAM 1500. ON THE DATE OF 2/17/2020 THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FROM WHICH IT WAS BOUGHT AND PROBLEM WAS EXPLAINED, DEALER ADVISED A $600+ CHARGE TO REPAIR SAID DENSOR

I HAD JUST STARTED DRIVING WHEN I HIT THE BUTTON TO RAISE MY SUSPENSION, EVERYTHING SEEMED TO BE WORKING AS NORMAL BUT THE TRUCK NEVER RAISED AND THE INDICATOR LIGHT FLASHED RAISING BUT NEVER STOPPED. AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 5 MILES I STOPPED THE TRUCK TURNED IT OFF AND RESTARTED. THE INDICATOR STOPPED FLASHING,REMAINING IN OFF-ROAD 1, BUT THE FRONT WAS LOWER THAN THE REAR. I TRIED ADJUSTING AGAIN BUT NOTHING WORKED. GOT BACK ON THE ROAD AND GOT UP TO HIGHWAY SPEEDS TO SEE IF IT WOULD AUTO ADJUST BUT IT REMAINED IN OFF-ROAD 1, EVEN AT 70MPH. IT HAD BEEN BELOW FREEZING OVERNIGHT, BUT THE TEMP HAD RAISED ABOVE 45 WHEN THIS OCCURRED. A BIT OF A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE TRUCK DOESN'T HANDLE RIGHT, WHEN THE FRONT IS LOWERED TO EXIT LEVEL AND THE REAR IS IN OFF-ROAD 2.

BROKEN EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLTS

DURING COLD WEATHER (SUB 32F) AIR SUSPENSION WILL FAIL, CAUSING TRUCK TO SIT ON BUMP STOPS (SUSPENSION BOTTOMS OUT ON ONE OR MORE CORNERS, SOMETIMES ALL 4 CORNERS). HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING VERY ROUGH/BUMPY RIDE AND CAUSES POOR HANDLING IF IT HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING, AT VARIOUS SPEEDS RANGING FROM SUB 25MPH TO 70+MPH. CAN ALSO FAIL IF PARKED. ATTACHED IMAGE IS OF FRONT DRIVER TIRE BOTTOMED OUT SITTING IN GARAGE.

FUEL SENSOR FAIL OCCURS WHEN TANK GETS TO HALFWAY POINT; ONCE IT FAILS THE TANK APPEARS TO BE EMPTY AND A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. ME, ALONG WITH THOUSANDS OF OTHER DRIVERS EXPERIENCE THIS. MY VEHICLE STARTED EXPERIENCING THIS WITH ONLY 50,000 MILES, THIS SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING AND THIS IS A DEFECTIVE UNIT. A FAILURE SUCH AS THIS CAN CAUSE HEADACHES TO DRIVERS BY GIVING THEM A FALSE SENSE OF WHAT IS ACTUALLY BEING PRESENTED TO THEM ON THEIR INSTRUMENT PANEL.

I WAS DRIVING MY RAM 1500 ECODIESEL TO AND FROM WORK AND NOTICED A KNOCKING SOUND. SCHEDULED A SERVICE APPOINTMENT AND THE DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED MY TRUCK WITH CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE. A NEW ENGINE IS REQUIRED WITH A REPAIR BILL OF $12,370. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE, A LAW SUIT HAS BEEN FILED DUE TO CHRYSLER REFUSING TO COVER REPAIR COST. I FEEL CHRYSLER SOLD ME A LEMON, PLEASE CONDUCT AN INVESTIGATION.

WHILE WAITING AT A STOP LIGHT AND THEN STEPPING ON THE ACCELERATOR THE RAM WENT INTO LIMP MODE AND DID NOT GO PAST 15 MPH. THE RAM DID NOT TURN ON ANY LIGHT TO NOTIFY ME OF AN ISSUE. I HAD TO FORCEFULLY TAKE IT OUT OF LIMP MODE THEREFORE RISKING THE TRANSMISSION TO GET DAMAGED. THERE WAS A BIG TRUCK BEHIND ME MAKING A LEFT WHO THANKFULLY NOTICED THE RAM STOPPED WORKING AND PATIENTLY WAITED FOR ME TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY. I TURNED IT OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON AND IT STARTED WORKING AGAIN. SEEMS LIKE A RECALL ISSUE ON RAMS AS I HAVE BEEN READING THIS HAS HAPPENED TO HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE.

WHILE DRIVING THROUGH WEST VIRGINIA, PULLING MY SAILBOAT, I GOT A "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT; AS I WAS COMING UP TO THE BECKLEY SERVICE AREA, I DECIDED TO STOP, FIND AN AUTO PARTS STORE AND GET THE CODE READ. JUST AS I WAS ENTERING THE SERVICE AREA, I LOST POWER, SIMULTANEOUSLY HAVING THE DASHBOARD FLASH A "TPS SENSOR" WARNING, AS I DESCENDED INTO THE REST AREA, I REALIZED THAT I HAD ALSO LOST MY BRAKES (BUT NOT THE TRAILER BRAKES) AND THEN, WHILE COASTING INTO THE PARKING LOT, A WV TURNPIKE PU PULLED ALONGSIDE WITH THE DRIVER GESTICULATING AT ME, YELLING THAT I NEEDED TO GET OUT OF MY TRUCK, IT WAS ON FIRE. IMMEDIATELY UPON STOPPING, THE FRONT END BECAME ENGULFED IN FLAMES, ULTIMATELY BURNING COMPLETELY UP.

WHILE DRIVING TO THE AUTO PARTS STORE, TURNED AND STEERING WHEEL GOT REALLY HARD THAT I COULDN'T TURN IT JUMP THE CURB ALMOST HITTING A LIGHT POLE, TOOK THE TRUCK TO A FRIEND THAT HAS A SHOP AND FOUND CODE C221700 ELECTRIC POWER STEERING MODULE INTERNAL PROBLEM

2014 DODGE RAM. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO PROBLEMS WITH IGNITION, LIGHTS AND TRANSMISSION. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED ON A HILL WHEN IT BEGAN TO ROLL BACKWARDS AND CRASHED THROUGH A GATE.

THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS ON. THE CONSUMER STATED THE KEY FALLS OUT OF THE IGNITION, BUT THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO RUN. THE MILEAGE WOULD NOT APPEAR ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE HEADLIGHTS WERE NOT ADJUSTABLE. *JS

MY 2014 DODGE RAM BLOWS A POWDER OUT OF THE VENTS. I WAS DRIVING DOWN I5 DOING ABOUT 60 MPH AND MY HEATER KICKED ON BLOWING A WHITE POWDER FROM THE VENTS INTO MY EYES. I WAS TEMPORARILY BLINDED AND ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF MY TRUCK. I WAS ABLE TO SQUINT OUT OF 1 EYE AND GET PULLED OVER SAFELY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I BELIEVE MY CONTACTS SAVED MY EYES. AS THE EVAPORATOR STARTS BREAKING DOWN IT ALLOWS A POWDER TO FORM THAT CAN BLOW IN YOUR FACE. DODGE SHOULD HAVE SOMETHING INSTALLED IN FRONT OF THE EVAPORATOR THAT WOULD PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING.

COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING ASSIST.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE FUEL SENDER UNIT FAILED TO INDICATE THE FUEL LEVEL IN THE VEHICLE AS THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED.

THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT SUBJECTED TO A RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 65,000.

RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FCA, TITLED, APPROVED EMISSIONS MODIFICATION DISCLOSURE 3.0L DIESEL. TOOK LETTER AND VISITED DODGE DEALER, THEY DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE LETTER AND STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING WITHOUT A RECALL NUMBER. I HAVE SINCE MONITORED MOTOR FOR ANY SIGNS OF OVERHEATING OR LOSS OF COOLING FLUID. THE TRUCK CONTINUES TO HAVE LOW GAS MILEAGE, SHIFTS HARD AND AT HIGH RPM. WHEN FIRST STARTED IS SLUGGISH AND I HAVE TO DRIVE CAUTIOUSLY AS IT HESITATED ON TAKE OFF.

HAD AEM FLASH CAUSED 10-15% MPG LOSS AS WELL AS THROTTLE LAG,LOSS OF ACCELERATION FCA SAID THERE WOULD BE NO CHANGE IN PERFORMANCE OR MPG

MY VEHICLE LOST SIGNAL FROM THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR IN THE GAS TANK. THE SENSOR NOW ONLY WORKS WHEN THE TANK IS BETWEEN FULL AND 3/4 FULL. IT IS NOW UNSAFE TO DRIVE AS YOU DON'T KNOW HOW FAR YOU CAN TRAVEL BEFORE RUNNING OUT OF FUEL. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE. PEOPLE COULD BECOME STRANDED IN A DESOLATE AREA OR UNDER ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS AND NOT BE ABLE TO GET HELP.

MY TRUCK STARTED LEAKING COOLANT OUT THE REAR OF ENGINE DOWN TRANSMISSION AND ON THE GROUND AND MOTOR WOULDN'T HOLD ANY COOLANT IN IT SO I CALLED FCA CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY TOLD ME VEHICLE IS NOT DRIVEABLE TO GET IT TO RAM DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS IT'S BEEN SITTING THERE 9 DAYS NOW AND I CANT GET ANYBODY FROM DEALER OR CUSTOMER CARE TO GET IT WORKED ON AND DIAGNOSED IT'S UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY PLUS THE ECODIESEL SETTLEMENT EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR ALL PARTS OF POSSIBLE PROBLEM AND THEY WILL NOT LOAN ME A VEHICLE OF ANY KIND AND I'M IN NEED OF MY VEHICLE REPAIRED AND BACK TO BEING ABLE TO DRIVE IT ,I CALL RAM CUSTOMER CARE EVERYDAY AND KEEP GETTING TOLD NOTHING ABOUT IT GETTING REPAIRED OR PROBLEM LOCATED

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TWIN RIVERS CHRYSLER, JEEP, DODGE LOCATED AT 529 WEST COURT STREET BEATRICE, NE 68310, PHONE NUMBER (402)-228-3310, TO BE INSPECTED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE HYDRAULIC LIFTERS FAILED TO OPERATE AS INTENDED WHICH CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE CAMSHAFT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND A CASE WAS OPENED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,000.

FUEL SENDING UNIT MALFUNCTIONS CAUSING THE FUEL GAUGE TO GO TO EMPTY AND BACK TO FULL

THE LIFTERS ON THE 2 CYL. THAT SHUT OFF TO SAVE FUEL FAILED AND RUINED THE CAM SHAFT. THIS HAPPENED ON MY 2010 AND NOW ON MY 2014. IT STARTED BY SKIPPING AN LOWER RPMS AS YOU SPEED UP OR ON AN INCLINE AND THEN ONE DAY IT SET A CHECK ENGINE LITE AND SKIPPED ALL THE TIME.

ERROR CODE P0463: FUEL LEVEL SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH INPUT, THIS MEANS MY FUEL GAUGE IS EXPERIENCING FAILURES AND I CAN NOT ACCURATELY DETERMINE HOW MUCH FUEL IS IN THE VEHICLE. DOING A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH, THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 2014 RAM 1500 5.7L. I'M AT ROUGHLY 68500 MILE ON MY TRUCK SO THE ISSUE IS ALSO OUT OF WARRANTY.

I HAVE A 2014 DODGE RAM 1500 LARAMIE LIMITED WITH THE AIR SUSPENSION OPTION. I BOUGHT IT 11 MONTHS AGO. IT WAS WINTER WHEN I BOUGHT IT, AND ON THE TEST DRIVE, I ATTEMPTED TO ADJUST THE SUSPENSION LEVEL AND IMMEDIATELY GOT THE WARNING MESSAGE THAT THE AIR SUSPENSION NEEDED TO BE SERVICED. THEY TOOK IT INTO THEIR SERVICE BAY AND REPLACED THE FUSE, WHICH TEMPORARILY RESOLVED THE ISSUE. AS THE WEATHER REMAINED COLD, HOWEVER, I GOT THE SAME MESSAGE AGAIN, SO CONTACTED THE DEALER AND TOOK IT BACK IN. I ENDED UP HAVING TO TAKE IT BACK IN MULTIPLE TIMES, WITH THEM "INSULATING A PART OF THE SYSTEM AND UPDATING THE ECU". AS THE WEATHER WARMED UP THROUGH THE SPRING AND SUMMER, NO ISSUES. FAST FORWARD TO THIS WINTER, ONCE THE WEATHER DROPPED BELOW FREEZING, THE SERVICE AIR SUSPENSION LIGHT CAME BACK ON. I CHECKED ALL FUSES, AND NONE WERE BLOWN, WHICH SEEMS TO BE THE COMMON FAULT THAT CAUSES THIS ERROR MESSAGE. I PULLED THEM AND REPLACED THEM TO TRY TO RESET THE SYSTEM, AND THE SYSTEM TRIED LOWER THE TRUCK, THEN RAISE IT, TO THE POINT WHERE IT FINALLY STOPPED WITH THE FRONT END COMPLETELY LOWERED ON THE BUMP STOPS, AND THE BACK END IN OFF-ROAD 2. THE HEIGHT INDICATOR STATED IT WAS IN OFF-ROAD 2, EVEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, EVEN THOUGH THAT HEIGHT IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO BE MAINTAINED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE SYSTEM ALSO CONTINUES TO TRY TO RAISE AND LOWER ON IT'S OWN, DOING SO FOR UP TO AN HOUR AT A TIME WHILE DRIVING. ALL THAT BEING SAID, THE VEHICLE IS BACK AT THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS, EV

AT ABOUT 49,000 MILES THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER DRIVING FOR SEVERAL DAYS THE LIGHT WOULD TURN OFF ON ITS OWN WHILE THE ENGINE WAS OFF. I THOUGHT THAT IT MAY BEEN THE GAS CAP, SO I REPLACED IT. THEN, WHILE DRIVING, THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT TURNED ON AGAIN, INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING. I HAD IT CHECKED BY O' REILLYS AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE FUEL SYSTEM, PO463=2 6391451. WHEN I TURNED ON THE ENGINE, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS NOT ON. AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS I NOTICED THAT WHEN MY GAS WAS LESS THAN 3/4 FULL THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AGAIN, WHILE DRIVING. MY GAS GAUGE AND MILE RANGE DROPPED TO ZERO. WHEN I FILLED THE GAS TANK THE GAUGE WENT BACK TO FULL WITH THE NUMBER OF MILE RANGE. AGAIN, WHEN THE GAS WAS ABOUT 3/4, THE GAUGE DROPPED OFF. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS NOW REMAINED ON CONSTANTLY.
