2014 Ram 1500 complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 RAM 1500. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. AFTER RESTARTING THE ENGINE, THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000.

THERE IS A 1 TO 2 SECOND LAG WHEN PRESSING THE HORN BUTTON AND WHEN THE HORN ACTUALLY SOUNDS. WITH THE LAG, IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SOUND THE HORN IMMEDIATELY WHEN SOMEONE IS ENCROACHING INTO YOUR LANE OR ANY OTHER TIME WHEN THE HORN NEEDS TO BE SOUNDED TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT. *JS

I FOUND OUT ABOUT A RECALL BY FCA THAT MY 2014 DODGE RAM ECODIESEL HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE EXHAUST DAMPENER. THIS IS AFTER I STARTED RESEARCHING THE SMELL OF EXHAUST FUMES IN THE CAN WHEN USING THE VEHICLES HEAT. I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE RECALL REPAIRED. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT FCA IS ONLY SENDING THE REPAIR PARTS IN BATCHES AND CANNOT BE ORDERED DIRECTLY FROM FCA. THIS MEANS I MUST WAIT UNTIL THEY ARE IN-STOCK AT THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE PROBLEM REPAIRED. I CONTACTED RAM CUSTOMER SERVICE. RAM CUSTOMER SERVICE STATED THAT THE PART SHIPPING ISSUE IS KNOWN BUT THE 'SMELL' IS NOT CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE. I TOLD THEM THAT THE SMELL OF EXHAUST IS DISTINCT AND OBVIOUS. THEY STILL ARGUED THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE AS THEIR OWN TESTS DEMONSTRATE THAT THE LEVELS OF EXHAUST DO NOT POSE A SAFETY THREAT--THEY WOULD NOT RESPOND WHEN I STATED IT IS A HEALTH THREAT. AT THIS TIME I STILL CANNOT GET THIS EXHAUST FUME PROBLEM FIXED UNDER FCA'S OWN RECALL SINCE FCA HAS MADE THE REPAIR PARTS AVAILABILITY LIMITED SINCE FCA ONLY SHIPS THE PARTS IN BATCHES NOT BASED ON THE NEED OF THE CUSTOMERS. THE EXHAUST FUMES HAVE CAUSED ME TWO MIGRAINES AND SEVERAL NORMAL HEADACHES WHEN USING THE HEAT ON LONG DRIVES (DISTANCES OVER 30 MILES OR DRIVING TIMES OVER ONE HOUR). THE FCA RECALL IS 'R04'.

VEHICLE CANNOT BE LOCKED WITHOUT HORN HONKING. BOTH DEALER AND CHRYSLER HAVE TOLD ME THAT UCONNECT 5.0 SYSTEM HAS NO MEANS OF DISCONNECT OR REPROGRAMMING TO ELIMINATE HORN HONKING WHEN CAR IS LOCKED. LOCAL P.D. AND CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY PATROL CONFIRM THAT IT IS A VIOLATION FOR HORN TO HONK - EXCEPT IN EMERGENCY OR AS ALARM. SEE CA. VEHICLE CODE SECTION 27001 & 28085. " LOCKING DOOR INDICATION IS A VIOLATION OF THE LAW." MY BUSINESS REQUIRES 24 HOUR SERVICE. NEIGHBOR HAS TOLD ME THEY WILL CALL POLICE, (UNDERSTANDABLY), IF MY HORN AWAKENS THEIR CHILDREN AGAIN.

IT HAS BEEN SUGGESTED THAT I, "REMOVE THE FUSE EACH TIME YOU PARK - THEN LOCK THE DOOR." AND IF I FORGET TO REINSTALL THE FUSE?

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ON A SMOOTH STRAIGHT ROAD, THE EMERGENCY INFORMATION SCREEN IN MY GAUGE CLUSTER STARTED FLASHING AND STATED "SERVICE POWER STEERING" "SERVICE ELECTRONIC BRAKE SYSTEM" "SERVICE ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROLLER" "SERVICE TRANSMISSION" IT ALSO STATED TO NOT SHIFT TO PARK AS SHIFTING MAY BECOME INOPERABLE ONCE STOPPED. MY POWER STEERING WAS GONE, MY GAS PEDAL WAS INOPERABLE AND BRAKING WAS VERY WEAK. I HAD TO MUSCLE THE TRUCK TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SLOWLY COME TO A STOP AND SHIFTED INTO PARK. I TURNED THE KEY FOB TO OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES. WHEN I TRIED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE IT WOULD NOT EVEN ATTEMPT TO TURN OVER. NOW, MY KEY FOB WAS ALSO STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND WOULD NOT TURN TO THE OFF POSITION TO REMOVE THE KEY.

I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT IF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS NO IDEA HOW TO PROPERLY FIX IT OR EVEN KNOW IF THEY HAVE PROPERLY
