BROUGHT TO DEALER AND THEY SAID THE LOWER STEERING SHAFT WAS BAD AND WOULD BE REPAIRED FREE OF CHARGE SINCE IT WAS UNDER WARENTY . GOT A CALL 2 DAYS LATER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE UPPER SHAFT AND BEARING THAT NEEDED TO BE REPACED ALSO, SO NOW THEY HAVE MY CAR FOR 4 DAYS.

TRANSMISSION WILL SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO TURN OR STOP. NECESSARY TO TURN OFF ENGINE START AND PUT INTO GEAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED 18 TIMES TO DATE. I HAVE A 4 PAGE DOCUMENT DETAILING EACH TIME, PLACE, AND OCCURANCE. IF I HAD AN ADDRESS TO SENT TO. I AM IN A SMALL TOWN SO HAVE NOR HAS ANY TRAFFIC PROBLEMS BUT IF I GO TO A LARGE CITY THIS WOULD BE BAD TO STOP AND RESTART VEHICLE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. HAVE HAD TO DEALERS TWICE. FIRST ONE TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. AND SECOND DEALER AFTER KEEPING MY VEHICLE 3 DAYS SAID HE DID NOT HAVE TIME TO LOOK AT IT. NTSB # 10748878

SINCE THIS TRUCK WAS NEW THERE HAS BEEN AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE WITH THE CONTROL PANEL GOING DEAD, OR LOSING POWER. THIS PANEL INCLUDES THE ABILITY TO CHANGE THE TRUCK INTO VARIOUS 4X4 SETTINGS AS WELL AS THE PANEL THAT CONTROLS MANY OTHER FUNCTIONS SUCH AS THE HEATED/COOLED SEATS, AIR RIDE SUSPENSION ETC. SOMETIMES THE TURNING OFF THE TRUCK AND THEN RESTARTING IT CLEARS THE ISSUE, OTHER TIMES IT DOES NOTHING. THERE ARE OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. HTTP://WWW.RAMFORUMZ.COM/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=179332&HIGHLIGHT=CONTROL+PANEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO ENGAGE OR DISENGAGE 4X4 WHEN NEEDED AS WELL AS BEING VERY DISTRACTING TO THE DRIVER.

I HAVE BROUGHT MY TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP DUE TO A RATTLE IN MY STEERING WHEEL. THE RATTLE OCCURS WHEN TRAVELING FROM A STANDSTILL UP TO 30 MILES PER HOUR. THE DEALER WAS MADE AWARE OF THIS SITUATION THE WEEK THAT THE BOUGHT THE TRUCK. IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT BACK 5 TIMES, AND EACH TIME THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH MY STEERING SYSTEM. THEY STATED THAT THEY COULD HEAR THE RATTLE, AND WOULD FIX IT. THE FIRST 3 TIMES IT WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALER, THEY SENT ME AWAY STATING THAT THEY CORRECTED THE ISSUE. ONCE I GOT BACK HOME, AND ENCOUNTERED BUMPY ROADS, THE RATTLE WAS STILL THERE. THE FOLLOWING 2 TIMES IT WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP, THEY SENT ME AWAY STATING THAT THEY WOULD NOT WORK ON MY VEHICLE ANY FURTHER BECAUSE THEY DID NOT KNOW WHAT WAS CAUSING THE RATTLE. THEY HAVE RESEATED BOTH THE PASSENGER SIDE AND DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAGS, THEY TIGHTENED A WIRE HARNESS ON MY STEERING COLUMN, THEN THEY REPLACED MY STEERING COLUMN COUPLING, AND FINALLY THEY REPLACED THE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN. THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY ARE TRYING TO FIX. THEY STATED TO ME THAT THE KNOW THERE IS AN ISSUE, BUT DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING IT. THIS ISSUE COULD VERY WELL BE A SAFETY ISSUE, AS IT HAS TO DO WITH MY STEERING SYSTEM. MY VEHICLE HAS 5000 MILES ON IT, AND HAS BEEN BACK TO THE DEALER SHIP 5 TIMES. I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR 5 MONTHS.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE HOME FROM, AFTER HITTING THE SPEED LIMIT OF 65, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHIMMY, SIDE TO SIDE, AND CONTINUED AT A HIGHER SPEED. I CALLED THE DEALER, AND RETURNED THE TRUCK TO HAVE IT SERVICED, BUT IT DID NOT HELP. I WAS TOLD IT WAS FLAT SPOTS ON THE TIRES, AND TO GIVE IT SOME TIME. AFTER ALMOST 4000 MILES, AND 4 VISITS BACK FOR SERVICE, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. ALL THE TRUCKS RIDE THE SAME. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION, I FOUND OUT THROUGH VARIOUS FORUMS, THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, AND IF THE TIRES ARE CHANGED OUT, THE PROBLEM WILL GO AWAY. THE DEALER REFUSED TO CHANGE OUT THE TIRES. THE TIRES IN QUESTION ARE GOODYEAR WRANGLER SR-A, SIZE P275/60R20.

OUR '14 RAM 1500 WAS BOUGHT NEW ON 6/22/15. ON 8/9/15 OUR NEW 2014 DODGE RAM WAS PARKED ON A INCLINE IN A FRIENDS DRIVEWAY. MY WIFE AND SON GOT IN THE TRUCK, STARTED IT AND PUT IT INTO REVERSE TO LEAVE. AFTER MOVING ONLY A FEW FEET MY WIFE NOTICED THE HOSTESS COMING DOWN THE DRIVE TO SAY GOODBYE. SHE PLACED THE TRUCK IN PARK, GOT OUT OF THE VEHICLE LEAVING THE DOOR OPEN AND WALKED TO THE FRONT OF THE TRUCK. WHILE GIVING THE HOSTESS A HUG, HOSTESS EXCLAIMED YOUR TRUCK IS ROLLING AWAY. MY WIFE TRIED TO RUN BACK AND AROUND THE DOOR TO GET IN THE VEHICLE. BEFORE SHE COULD, THE OPEN DOOR TOOK DOWN TWO MAILBOXES AND 4X4 TIMBER POSTS THEY WERE MOUNTED ON AND OPENED THE DOOR BEYOND THE SPRING LIMIT PUSHING INTO THE FRONT FENDER AND POPPING OUT THE FRONT HEAD LIGHT. THE TRUCK ROLLED ACROSS THE STREET INTO THE NEIGHBORS YARD HITTING A POWER POLL WHERE IT CAME TO STOP. THE IMPACT TO THE POLL WAS STRONG ENOUGH TO PULL DOWN POWER LINES. UPON REACHING THE VEHICLE A MALE GUEST NOTED THE VEHICLE WAS STILL IN PARK. MY 9 YEAR OLD WAS STILL STRAPPED INTO HIS SEAT BELT AND SIGNIFICANTLY SHAKEN UP THOUGH NOT INJURED. THE POLICE AND UTILITY COMPANY ARRIVED. THE OFFICER WROTE HIS REPORT UP AS VEHICLE MALFUNCTION. THE TOW TRUCK OPERATOR SAID THE VEHICLE COULD BE DRIVEN IN ITS CONDITION. HE PULLED BACK THE DOOR TO AS CLOSE TO CLOSED AS POSSIBLE AND TIED CLOSED. THE REAR BUMPER AND TAILGATE ARE TRASHED. INSURANCE ADJUSTER HAS GIVEN PRELIMINARY ESTIMATE OF $8,900. THE POWER COMPANY HAS NOT CONTACTED US

I HAVE HAD 16 INCIDENTS WITH MY 2014 RAM 1500, VIN# [XXX]. EQUIPPED WITH AN EIGHT-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. WHEN I SLOWED DOWN FOR A STOP TO TURN RIGHT, THE TRANSMISSION WENT INTO NEUTRAL AND THE TRUCK COASTED DOWN TO A STOP. THE TRANSMISSION KNOB WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF DRIVE AND THE TRANSMISSION STAYED IN NEUTRAL. WHEN I STOPPED AND TURNED OFF MOTOR, I COULD TURN TRANSMISSION SHIFTER TO PARK, START TRUCK AND SHIFT INTO DRIVE. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 5 WEEKS APART. BOTH TIMES I WAS ON A CITY STREET AND IT WAS NOT A TRAFFIC PROBLEM. CURRENT MILEAGE 7455. I CALLED MY DEALER AND HE SAID HE HAD NOT HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM, AND SAID IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN TO HAVE TO TOWED TO HIM. I LIVE 150 MILES FROM HIM. MY CLOSEST DEALER IS 60 MILES. THIS IS STILL HAPPENING ALMOST MONTHLY. I HAVE DATES AND TIMES I CAN SEND. DON'T HAVE ROOM IN THIS FORM FOR COMPLETE COMPLAINT INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

WHILE NO ACCIDENT HAS OCCURRED, IN MY OPINION THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. THE UCONNECT SYSTEM EITHER BECOMES DISCONNECTED OR HAS A POOR RECEPTION WHILE DRIVING. IT IS VERY INCONSISTENT IN THE WAY IT PERFORMS. IT CREATES A SAFETY PROBLEM BECAUSE WHEN THIS OCCURS YOU NATURALLY ATTEMPT TO EITHER RECONNECT OR DISCONNECT FROM THE SYSTEM CREATING A SIGNIFICANT DISTRACTION. ATTEMPTS BY THE DEALER TO FIX THE PROBLEM HAVE BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL.

HAVE A 2014 RAM 1500 BLACK EXPRESS WITH 8 SPEED TRANSMISSION. THE TRUCK DOWNSHIFTS VERY HARD WHEN SLOWING AND SEEMS TO HESITATE BEFORE UPSHIFTING RANDOMLY. THE TRANSMISSION ALSO MAKES A GRINDING NOISE AT IDLE AND A METALLIC CLANK ON ACCELERATION. THE DEALER TOLD ME THIS WAS NORMAL. THAT'S FUNNY BECAUSE IT WENT 9000 MILES WITHOUT DOING IT. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER CARE TO NO EFFECT AND THE DEALER WONT EVEN LOOK AT THE TRANNY UNTIL IT THROWS CODES. I AM SO MAD.

CEL LIGHT CAME ON, TOOK TO DEALER PROBLEM WITH DEF INJECTOR, CEL CAME BACK ON 3 MORE TIMES BEFORE FINALLY RELEASING THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE SCR IN THE DEF SYSTEM

BOUGHT A 2014 RAM 1500 THAT HAD 36 MILES ON IT. AFTER ABOUT A MONTH I NOTICED THE VEHICLE WOULD DOWN SHIFT HARD. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY APPLIED AN UPDATE TO THE TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE RAN FINE FOR ABOUT TWO MONTHS THAN STARTED LURCHING SLIGHTLY BETWEEN GEAR CHANGES. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN THEY RESET THE TRANSMISSION AND RELEARNED THE PROGRAMMING.THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THAT I SHOULD NO LONGER HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH MY TRANSMISSION. IT WORKED FINE FOR A DAY OR TWO AND IS NOW DOWN SHIFTING HARD AGAIN. APPARENTLY THERE'S NO WAY THAT THEY CAN FIX MY TRANSMISSION SO IT RUNS LIKE IT'S SUPPOSED TO. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 2,500 MILES ON IT. A BRAND NEW VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE HAVING ISSUES THE TRANSMISSION. NOW I HAVE TO CALL THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND MAKE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT FOR THE THIRD TIME OF COURSE I ALSO HAVE TO EXPLAIN THAT THE UPDATE THEY GAVE ME THE FIRST TIME CAUSED ANOTHER ISSUE. FUN TIMES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V460000 (AIR BAGS, SEAT BELTS) HAD EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

TRAVELING WEST ON I-4, ORLANDO, FL BETWEEN SAND LAKE ROAD AND EXIT TO 528E AT 1:25 PM IN LEFT HAND LANE. AS I ATTEMPTED TO CHANGE LANES TO THE RIGHT I ACCELERATED SLIGHTLY AND FELT A "THUMP" (THE ONLY WAY I CAN DESCRIBE IT) THROUGH THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE TRUCK SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND FISH TAILED. I LOST CONTROL FOR THAT INSTANT AND MY TRUCK STRUCK THE VEHICLE TO MY LEFT IN THE REAR BY THE TAIL LIGHTS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I WAS ABLE TO REGAIN CONTROL OF MY TRUCK AND PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AS DID THE OTHER VEHICLE. MY COMPLAINT CENTERS ON WHY THE TRUCK SUDDENLY ACCELERATED; WHAT WAS THE "THUMP" THAT I FELT; IS THERE A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION (NEW DESIGN FOR 2014) AND THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL; WHAT WOULD CAUSE THIS SUDDEN ACCELERATION? HAVE THERE BEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS OF THIS NATURE ON THIS OR OTHER CHRYSLER MODELS? PLEASE RESPOND ASAP.

WHILE COMING TO A STOP; TRAFFIC LIGHT, STOP SIGN, ETC. I CAN FEEL A HARD JERK. I BELIEVE IT'S THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTING TO A LOWER GEAR BUT I'M NOT FOR CERTAIN. THE HARD JERK DOESN'T HAPPEN TOO OFTEN MAYBE ONCE A DAY, BUT WHEN IT DOES IT'S VERY NOTICEABLE. I'M CONCERNED THIS IS CAUSING ADDITIONAL STRESS AND FATIGUE TO MY TRANSMISSION AND SOMETHING WILL EITHER SNAP OR BREAK.

OIL LEAKS AT THE FILTER. FILTER HAS BEEN UPGRADED AND NOW A YEAR LATER IS STILL LEAKING. DEALERSHIP IS THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS CHANGED THE OIL. IT IS DUE TO GO BACK IN TOMORROW, THURSDAY JULY,30TH.

I WAS DRIVING IN A RAINY DAY AT 65 MPH I 81 SOUTH BOUND, WHEN I SUDDENLY SAW O LOT OF WATER ACCUMULATE IN THE ROAD AND THE RAIN GETS HARDER AND IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE I FELT LIKE MY RAM STARTED SPINNING, I HAVE HAD SOME EXPERIENCES WITH VIHECLES SLIDING BUT THIS TIME HAD NO CHANCE TO DO ANYTHING AND I ENDED HITTING THE CONCRETE WALL WITH THE FRONT OF MY VIHECLE. THE SEAT BELTS DIDN'T LOCK OUR BODIES TO THE SEAT PROPERLY AND THE AIRBAGS FAIL TO DEPLOY. MY WIFE AND I WHERE TAKEN TO ER THE X RAYS DIDN'T SHOW ANY FRACTURES BUT MY WIFE IS STILL ON PAIN.

ON 13 MAY I WAS COMING TO A METERED LIGHT WHEN A LANE SPLITTER CAUSED ME TO HARD BRAKE TO AVOID THE SPLITTER. MY TRUCK, WITH NO PROMPTING FROM ME SHUT OFF. I WAS NEARLY REAR ENDED BY A SEMI BEHIND ME. ON 6 JUNE I WAS COMING TO A LIGHT AND NEARLY STOPPED AND MY TRUCK SHUT OFF. ON 7 JULY I WAS COMING TO A STOP AT A STOP LIGHT AND MY TRUCK SHUT OFF. EACH TIME THIS HAPPENS THE TRUCK TURNS OFF, THE TURN DIAL FLASHES "P" (AS IT IS CURRENTLY IN D). I PUT THE TRUCK IN P, TURN THE IGNITION BACK ON, PLACE TURN DIAL INTO D AND DRIVE. EACH TIME CARL BURGER DODGE SAYS THAT MY TRUCK DOESNT "CODE" AND THEY CANT RECREATE THE ISSUE. I PROVIDED THEM WITH VIDEO'S OF WHAT HAPPENS THAT I FOUND ON YOUTUBE AND THATS WHEN THEY STARTED A "STAR" CASE WITH CHRYSLER MAIN. MY CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE ASSISTANCE ADMITS THERE IS AN ISSUE SAYING "THE TECH'S ARE WORKING ON IT" BUT THEN SAYS THE BEST THEY CAN DO IS "GIVE ME 3 FREE YEARS OF OIL CHANGES". I AM A DISABLED VETERAN AND I HAVE REACHED LEMON LAW STATUS BUT CARL BURGER IS NOT DOING ANYTHING AND CHRYSLER SAYS ITS CARL BURGERS RESPONSIBILITY TO TAKE MY TRUCK BACK BUT CARL BURGER SAYS ITS CHRYSLERS. THIS TRUCK IS GOING TO GET ME KILLED. THERE IS ANOTHER REPORTED CASE IN CHULA VISTA, CA AND CHRYSLER ALSO GAVE THEM 3 FREE YEARS OF OIL CHANGES JUST LIKE THEY DID WITH ME. YOUR RECALL DIDNT INCLUDE THIS YEAR/MAKE AND MODEL AND IT CANT JUST BE MY TRUCK, THERE IS A DODGE FORUMN THAT HAS THIS ISSUE ON THE ENTIRE THREAD BUT SINCE NO CUSTOMERS VEHICLES "CODE" CHRYS

I WAS DRIVING ALONG ON ROUTE 220 NEAR LOCK HAVEN PA IN WHICH THEY ARE DOING CONSTRUCTION THERE IS UNEVEN PAYMENT POT HOLES ETC I WAS DOING 45 MPH AT THE TIME DUE TO CONSTRUCTION ZONE WHEN I HIT A POT HOLE I HEARD A LOUD POP NOISE SO I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER LOOKED AT MY TRUCK DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING SO I CONTINUED DRIVING APON ARRIVING AT MY HOME TEN MILE UP THE ROAD I NOTICED STEERING WAS FUNNY ONCE IN MY DRIVEWAY I LOOKED OVER MY TRUCK AGAIN TO MY SURPRISE I FOUND A CRACK ON THE KNUCKLE AT THE UPPER BALL JOINT THE KNUCKLE HAD CRACKED RIGHT AT THE UPPER BALL JOINT ON THE CASTING SEAM I CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY HAVEN'T HEARD OF SUCH A THING AFTER HRS OF ARGUING WITH THEM TO FIX IT I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY HAD THE TRUCK FOR A WEEK AND TOLD ME IT WASN'T COVERED UNDER WARRANTY KEEP IN MIND I ONLY HAD THE TRUCK FOR 2-3 MONTHS AND IT SHOULD OF BEEN COVERED I KNOW DODGE HAS HAD ISSUES IN THE PAST WITH SUSPENSION PROBLEMS AND I FIND IT A GREAT CONCERN AS THIS COULD OF CAUSED A SERIOUS CRASH VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH DODGE AT THIS POINT I'D RATHER NOT EVEN KEEP THE TRUCK AS I FEEL IT'S NOT VERY SAFE

I WAS DRIVING MY DODGE RAM 1500 FROM MILWAUKEE, WI TO MEMPHIS, TN ON A VACATION. WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF 80 MPH, I NOTICED A LOT OF SHAKING AND VIBRATING FROM THE STEERING WHEEL THRU THE ENTIRE CAB OF THE TRUCK. I NOTICED THE SAME THING WHEN DRIVING BACK HOME FROM MEMPHIS. I HAD TAKEN MY TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALER AT AN EARLIER DATE, HOWEVER THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THEY DIDN'T NOTICE ANY VIBRATING WHEN THEY DROVE THE TRUCK. THEY DID SHARE THAT THEY COULD NOT DRIVE MY VEHICLE AT EXCESSIVE SPEEDS, HOWEVER GAVE ME THE SAME INFORMATION IN MY LATEST COMPLAINT ON 7/23/2015. I SHARED MY CONCERNS PRIOR TO HEARING ABOUT THE CURRENT RECALL ON DODGE RAM 1500 TRUCKS AND HOPE THAT MY VEHICLE DOESN'T HAVE ANY SAFETY ISSUES THAT COULD LEAD TO INJURY.

THIS TRUCK WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW IN SEPT 2014. WITHIN THE FIRST 4000 MILES OF DRIVING THE BRAND NEW VEHICLE EXHAUST STARTED TO COME OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND STARTED ENTERING THE CABIN, IT NOW HAS 22000 MILES. I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID TO BRING IT IN AND FOUND NOTHING. 10000 MILES CHECKUP I TOLD THEM THE SAME THING BUT ITS GETTING A LOT WORSE SO THEY SAID IT WAS WHEN THEY DID AN OIL CHANGE AND OIL GOT ONTO THE EXHAUST SO THEY CLEANED MY UNDERCARRIAGE, BUT THE PROBLEM WOULD STILL OCCUR. 15000 I BROUGHT IT IN AGAIN AND THEY REPLACED MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER SAYING THAT WAS THEY ISSUE BUT AS SOON AS I GOT HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP IT STARTED AGAIN. I HAVE SINCE BEEN CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP CONSTANTLY BECAUSE NOW THERE IS A RECALL PERTAINING TO THE ISSUE I SPECIFICALLY HAVE (HIGH FREQUENCY DECOUPLER) RECALL (R04). SINCE THEN THEY KEEP TELLING ME THE PART IS ON BACKORDER AND I JUST HAVE TO WAIT FOR IT. MY TRUCK SMOKES FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND ENTERS THE CABIN FROM THE AIR VENTS, IT GETS TO THE POINT WHERE YOU CANT DRIVE IT WITHOUT GETTING DIZZY. NORTH STAR DODGE DEALERSHIP IN SAN ANTONIO IS WHO I HAVE BEEN CONTACTING WITH THIS ISSUE AND CHARLES SPECIFICALLY FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THERE ADMINISTRATION HAS DONE NOTHING TO ALLEVIATE THE ISSUE FOR ME OR ACCOMMODATE ME IN ANY WAY. FROM THE TIME I HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE I HAVE CONTACTED THE FCA MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY TELL ME THE DEALERSHIP HAS IT ON ORDER BUT CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT ACCOMMODATING ME EITHER. THE ISSUE OF CAR

ALSO, THE WIRING HARNESS WAS REPLACED TWICE AND THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED THAT THERE WAS AN OPENING IN THE AIR BAG WIRE WHICH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 14,000.

2014 RAM TRUCK 15000 MILES. PUSHING TWO YEARS OLD. DAY ONE -- STARTS GREAT, RUNS ABOUT 2MINUTES, DIES. THIS OCCURRED FOR ABOUT 3 MONTHS, BACK TO BACK REPAIRS, HAD TO USE ROADSIDE SERVICE. FINALLY CURED THAT. NEXT PROBLEM TO THIS EXACT DATE-- AIRBAG LIGHT ON RIGHT NOW!! DEALERSHIP HAS TRIED NUMEROUS REPAIRS AND FIXES, NO LUCK! MANY TRIPS BACK AND FORTH TO DEALERSHIP, (8 REPAIR ORDERS) STILL ON RIGHT NOW! NOT FIXED!! 4 ATTEMPTS OR CASES WITH THEIR "STAR TEAM" WHATEVER THAT IS? THEY SUCK!! CHRYSLER RESOLUTION TEAM HAS TRIED AND I SAID TRIED TO RESOLVE, OFFERED ME $$$ AND WIPE OUT PAST HISTORY, EXTENDED WARRANTIES, I SAID TAKE THAT AND STICK IT UP YOUR ??? REALLY, I JUST WANT AIRBAG FIXED NOT COVER IT UP AND THINK IM DESPERATE FOR MONEY, GUESS WHAT? IM NOT!! NOW HAVE RETAINED A LEMON LAW ATTORNEY TO MAYBE HELP. ITS BEEN MANY MONTHS AND CHRYSLER TELLS HIM "NO REFUND OR REPLACE" THEN CHRYSLER ATTORNEYS TRIED TO OFFER ME $2000 AND THINK I WOULD BE HAPPY AND SAY "SURE". THEN AGAIN I TOLD MY ATTORNEY TO TELL THEM TO STICK THAT UP THEIR [XXX]!! DO THEY THINK IM THAT EASY OR STUPID!! PLAIN AND SIMPLE AND YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHEN I TELL YOU THIS ------ ITS MY LIFE YOUR MESSING WITH DAILY, 50/50 CHANCE IT MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT WORK, RUSSIAN ROULETTE EVERY TIME I SIT BEHIND THE WHEEL AND DRIVE, THEY DON'T CARE!!

I HAVE OWNED THIS TRUCK FOR A MONTH AND A HALF AND NOW IT IS SLAMMING INTO GEAR BETWEEN 2ND AND 3RD GEAR. AT 30 MPH. AND THEN IT DOWNSHIFTS VERY HARD WHEN SLOWING! THIS IS A NIGHTMARE. IT IS ALSO VIBRATING ON THE HIGHWAY AND IT FEELS LIKE SOMETHING IS GOING ON WITH THE FRONT END. I AM BRINGING IT BACK TO THE DEALER BUT IM SURE I WILL GET THE SAME ANSWER AS EVERYONE ELSE. THAT THERE IS NO SOLUTION FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT THEY KNOW ABOUT IT. THERE IS A THREAD FOR THIS ISSUE. THIS TRUCK WAS NOT CHEAP AND I HAD A 93 FORD THAT DIDN'T DO THIS STUFF. THIS IS NOT RIGHT AND THE MORE I READ ONLINE THIS IS A ONGOING ISSUE AND THE DEALERSHIP CAN NOT FIX IT. SO ARE WE JUST SUPPOSE TO DRIVE AROUND THESE 30K PLUS TRUCKS WITH THIS ISSUE. THE MORE I LOOK INTO IT THIS IS ONLY ONE OF THE ISSUES BUT I WANTED TO LIST MY COMPLAINT AND WILL ALSO DO SO TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN. WISH I NEVER BOUGHT THIS TRUCK!!!!! THEY NEED TO COME UP WITH A SOLUTION BECAUSE THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE.

I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED THAT I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT THIS MORNING TOTALLING THE TRUCK AND THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. WHY???

TODAY IS JULY 10, 2015. THE VEHICLE IS 2014 DODGE RAM 1500 CREW CAB PICKUP PURCHASE NEW. ON THE STEERING WHEEL WHERE THE HORN AND AIRBAG ARE LOCATED THE SEAM CRACKED OR SEPARATED STARTING JUST BELOW THE LETTER "S" STAMPED ON IT FOR SRS AIRBAGS AND IF YOU ARE SITTING IN THE DRIVERS SEAT AND LOOKING AT THE WHEEL THE CRACK OR SEPARATION CONTINUES FROM THAT POINT AND RUNS STRAIGHT TO THE RIGHT AND UP TO THE END OF THE COVER FOR THE SRS AIRBAG IN THE STEERING WHEEL. WHEN THE HORN IS PRESSED THE CASING WHICH IS CRACKED OR SEPARATED SCRATCHES YOU OR YOUR FINGERS GET STUCK OR CAUGHT INSIDE THE OPENING. THE DEALER STATED THAT BECAUSE THE MILEAGE IS OVER THE 3 YEAR 36000 MILE WARRANTY IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED. HOWEVER, IF WE AGREED TO HAVE ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE DONE TODAY UNRELATED TO THE FREE OIL CHANGE THEY WOULD COVER THE COST TO REPAIR THE DEFECT. PLEASE NOTE THE DEALER CONFIRMED IT WAS A MANUFACTURED DEFECT. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE RAM 1500. WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR NEEDED TO BE UPDATED AND THE EMC REQUIRED MULTIPLE UPDATES. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,600. UPDATED 09/15/15*LJ UPDATED 10/31/2017*CN

HI, (TO CHRYSLER) THE FACTS: 1.- MY TRUCK SUFFER OF A DELAY WHEN YOU TRY TO START MOVING, FROM THE MOMENT THAT YOU PRESS THE GAS PEDAL AND THE MOMENT THAT THE TRUCK RESPOND AND START MOVING. I CAN SAY IS ABOUT 1 TO 2 SECONDS DELAY 2.- THE DELAY CAUSED THIS WEEK TO BE ALMOST ROLLED OVER FOR INCOMING TRAFFIC. WHEN YOU ARE AT THE VERY CONGESTED INTERSECTION AND YOU NEED TO GET IN TO THE INCOMING TRAFFIC FAST THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE WITH THIS TRUCK 3.- THE TRUCK DOES NOT CHANGE GEARS WHEN IT IS LACKING OF POWER, YOU CAN PRESS THE GAS PEDAL FOR ABOUT ONE INCH AN IT DOES NOT DO ANYTHING. 4.- AGAIN WHEN YOU NEED TO CHANGE LANES OR YOU NEED TO ADVANCE IN A HILL IT DOES NOT HAPPEN. WHEN YOU PRESS THE PEDAL YOU NEED TO GO ALL THE WAY DOWN FOR THE TRUCK TO RESPOND AND WHEN IT HAPPENS IT CHANGES TO A LOWER GEAR IN SUCH WAY THAT INSTEAD OF HAVING ACCELERATION IT IS DECELERATING INSTEAD. 5.- WHEN YOU NEED TO START MOVING THE TRUCK SLOWLY TO APPROACH SOME HING IT WILL NOT DO THAT IT WILL JUMP AND AT THAT POINT YOU ARE CLOSE TO CRASH IT ON THE THING THAT YOU ARE APPROACHING 6.-I GAVE YOU 2 MONTHS TRYING TO BECOME MORE FAMILIAR WITH THE TRUCK BEHAVIOR, BUT WHAT I FOUND IS THAT I CAN MANUALLY CHANGE THE GEARS AND MAKE THE TRUCK TO RESPOND AS A NORMAL VEHICLE, CHANGING GEARS GRADUALLY WHEN IT IS LOSING POWER IF I CAN MAKE THE TRUCK TO CHANGE GEARS WITH OUT JUMPING 4 GEARS DOWN WHY YOUR COMPUTER IS NOT CAPABLE OF DO IT? I BELIEVE THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE. I PRETTY SURE THAT THE TRUCK CAN HAVE COMPUTER

THE RAM ECODIESEL 3.0L TRUCK HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THAT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING, SHOWING A P20EE ERROR, REQUIRING THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DIESEL EXHAUST SELECTIVE CATALYTIC REDUCTION (SCR) AT UNDER 27,000MI THE DEALERSHIP I DEALT WITH WAS GREAT IN GETTING IT FIXED, BUT I AM CONCERNED THE NEW EXHAUST SCR THAT WAS INSTALLED WON'T LAST THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE IF THE FIRST ONE ONLY LASTED A LITTLE OVER 26,000MI UNLESS THEY MADE A CHANGE AND/OR UPDATED THE PART THAT WAS INSTALLED ON MY TRUCK. I'M HOPING THE REPLACED PART WAS UPDATED BY RAM AND THE CAUSE OF THIS ERROR CORRECTED, BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN GIVEN THIS INFORMATION AT THIS TIME.

THERE IS WATER COMING INSIDE THE VEHICLE, WITH ASSUMPTION THAT IT COMES FROM THE REAR DOORS. FIRST TIME IT WAS NOTICED THERE WAS ONLY A MINOR IMPACT: WET FLOOR CARPET IN BACK. AFTER THAT FIRST EVENT, WE ENSURED THE WINDOWS WERE ALWAYS FULLY CLOSED IN ORDER TO SEE IF THERE WOULD BE ANY OTHER LEAK EVENT. HOWEVER FOLLOWING THE HEAVY RAIN WE HAVE HAD IN MAY IN HOUSTON, WHILE THE CAR WAS PARKED IN DRIVEWAY WITHOUT MOVING FOR 4 WEEKS, CONDENSATION WAS NOTICED ON THE WINDSHIELD. ONCE OPENED THE CAR WAS MOLDY INSIDE ON REAR SEATS AND KIDS CAR SEATS, FLOOR CARPET, ETC... THE BACK SEATS ARE WET (WATER POURING FROM THEM) AND THE FLOOR CARPET IS WET INCLUDING UNDER BACK SEATS (ELECTRIC CABLING AREA). ALSO SEVERAL AREAS START SHOWING IMPRESSIVE RUST INCLUDING BELOW DRIVER SEAT AND STEERING WHEEL (PEDAL AREA). THE CAR IS BRAND NEW, BOUGHT 3 MONTHS AGO.

THERE IS A DISTURBING TREND AMONG AUTOMAKERS TO ELIMINATE DIPSTICKS FROM THEIR TRANSMISSIONS. THIS CAN BE POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS. I PURCHASED MY 2014 RAM 1500 NEW LATE LAST YEAR. RETURNING ON A ROAD TRIP TO NEW JERSEY LAST MONTH THE TRANSMISSION JERKED HORRIBLY. ONCE BACK HOME I PROMPTLY TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE. THEY REPROGRAMMED THE SHIFT POINTS AND IT WORKED SMOOTHLY FOR A FEW WEEKS. THEN IT STARTED SLIPPING AT 10 MPH. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY CHECKED THE FLUID LEVEL FROM THE FILL PORT ON THE BOTTOM OF THE PAN AND DISCOVERED IT WAS A QUART LOW FROM THE FACTORY. THIS IS A TERRIBLE DESIGN AND FORCES OWNERS INTO THREE OPTIONS ; 1. IGNORE THEIR TRANSMISSION.2. HAVE TO TAKE IT TO AN EXPENSIVE MECHANIC OR THE DEALER. 3.THIS IS WHERE IT CAN GET DANGEROUS, GET UNDERNEATH THEIR VEHICLE WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING TO GET THE FLUID TO THE NECESSARY TEMPERATURE TO ACCURATELY CHECK IT. HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF SHADE TREE MECHANICS WILL ENDANGER THEIR LIVES TO CHECK THEIR FLUID LEVELS. FORD HAS A SIMILARLY FLAWED DESIGN ON ITS PICK UP TRUCKS AS WELL. HAD I KNOWN ABOUT THIS BEFORE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK I WOULD HAVE GONE FOR THE CHEVROLET WITH THE CONVENTIONAL DIP STICK SET UP. THE MAIN REASON I BOUGHT THE RAM WAS FOR ITS HIGHWAY CRUISING RANGE. I COVERED 750 MILES ON A SINGLE TANK ( 32 GALLONS ). HOWEVER THERE IS MORE TO THE OWNERSHIP EXPERIENCE THAN THAT. BEING ABLE TO CHECK SIMPLE THINGS LIKE FLUID LEVELS BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER A CROSS COUNTRY ROAD TRIP AND JUST AR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE RAM 1500. WHILE DRIVING, THE KEY CAME OUT OF THE IGNITION AND THE VEHICLE COULD STILL BE DRIVEN WITHOUT THE KEY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,880.

I HAVE AN ALIGNMENT ISSUE WITH VEHICLE THAT IS CAUSING FEATHERING OF RIGHT FRONT TIRE THAT HAS NOT/CANNOT BE CORRECTED BY ALIGNMENT IN TWO ATTEMPTS TO DATE. DEALING WITH MANUFACTURER CUSTOMER CARE, MY ASSIGNED CASE NUMBER IS 26625890. MANUFACTURER HAS NOW SUGGESTED A ROAD FORCE BALANCE OF ALL FOUR TIRES, AFTER TWO ALIGNMENTS HAVE FAILED TO CORRECT FEATHERING PROBLEM. HAVE MONITORED HEAT BUILDUP ON THAT TIRE IN RELATION TO THE OTHER THREE AND FIND HEAT BUILDUP EXCEEDS 110 DEGREES ABOVE OTHER THREE. HAVE ALSO DISCOVERED THREE OTHER TRUCKS OF SAME MANUFACTURER, MODEL THAT ARE EXHIBITING SAME PROBLEM, ONE OWNER ALSO HAS OPEN CASE WITH CUSTOMER CARE AS WELL, HIS CASE NUMBER IS 26745473. WE BOTH SEEM TO BE GETTING NOTHING BUT LIP SERVICE FROM DEALERS AND NOT MUCH MORE FROM MANUFACTURER, WITH NO SINCERE EFFORT TO GET TO ROOT CAUSE OF PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THAT THIS CONDITION EXTENDS TO MORE TRUCKS THAN MINE, AND WARRANTS FURTHER INVESTIGATION. IT APPEARS BASED ON MY DEALINGS WITH MANUFACTURER AND DEALERS THAT THEY ARE NOT ONLY UNABLE TO CORRECT PROBLEM, I THINK THEY ARE UNAWARE THAT A PROBLEM EVEN EXISTS. MY CONCERN ON THIS ISSUE IS SAFETY RELATED, HAVING A FEAR OF A CATASTROPHIC TIRE FAILURE, DUE TO HEAT AND TIRE PRESSURE BUILD UP, AS WELL AS FEATHERING AS INDICATION OF A SUSPENSION PROBLEM. THIS ISSUE CAUSING ABNORMAL FORCES BEING APPLIED TO RIGHT FRONT TIRE. I HAVE ALL ALIGNMENT RECORDS AND DEALER SERVICE ORDERS AVAILABLE FOR YOUR REVIEW. I HAVE CONTACTED YOU IN COMPLIANCE WITH MANU

I BOUGHT A NEW DODGE 2014 1500 AND LOOKED UNDER MY TRUCK FOR THE FIRST TIME AND DISCOVERED IT CAME WITH A USED 17 INCH SPARE TIRE I THINK IT IS VERY UNSAFE TO REPLACE A NEW 20 INCH TIRE WITH A USED 17 INCH ...UPDATED 05/14/15 *BF

THERE IS A VERY STRONG DIESEL EXHAUST SMELL IN THE CAB OF THE TRUCK. THIS IS SO STRONG MY WIFE IS UNABLE TO RIDE IN THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE NAUSEA IT CAUSES HER. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING. EVERYONE THAT HAS RIDDEN IN MY TRUCK, EXCEPT ANYONE ASSOCIATED WITH THE DODGE DEALER I HAVE TAKEN IT TO FOR REPAIR, ASKS WHAT IS CAUSING THE SMELL. THE DODGE DEALER SAYS THEY CAN NOT SMELL ANYTHING. FROM RESEARCHING THIS ON THE INTERNET I KNOW NUMEROUS OTHER OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND CONCERNS.

ABOUT 6 WEEKS AFTER FIRST OIL CHANGE THE FILTER STARTED LEAKING. FILTER WAS CHAMP TYPE AND PERFORMED AT A VERY RESPECTABLE AUTOMOTIVE SHOP. NO OIL LEAKS ANYWAY ELSE.

WINDSHIELD GLARE REFLECTION FROM DASH COMPROMISES VISIBILITY WHEN DRIVING IN SUNLIGHT. SUNLIGHT REFLECTS OFF DASH CAUSING GLARE IN WINDSHIELD. MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED (FORUMS ONLINE) THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS AND OCCURS IN MANY VEHICLES. AUTO MANUFACTURES NEED TO PUT EXTREMELY NON-REFLECTIVE MATERIAL ON DASHES TO COUNTER THIS. A DULL DASH MAT REALLY HELPS, PROVING THAT IT CAN BE MITIGATED. *TR

MY 2014 DODGE RAM 1500 WAS IDLING IN PARK IN THE DRIVEWAY FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES WHEN WITH NOBODY IN OR NEAR THE VEHICLE IT JUMPED INTO REVERSE AND ACCELERATED INTO A GARAGE CAUSING APPROXIMATELY $4,000 DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE ( THANK GOD NOBODY WAS INJURED OR KILLED ) *TR

ON 12/13/2014, I PURCHASED A NEW, 2014 DODGE RAM 1500 IN SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS. ON 01/23/2015, AFTER ACCUMULATING 1000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER, I TRIGGERED THE KEY FOB TO UNLOCK THE VEHICLE ONLY TO HAVE THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAIL. I COULD NOT START THE VEHICLE NO MATTER WHAT I TRIED. I NOTIFIED DODGE AND HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP ON 01/24/2015. AFTER SEVERAL VISITS TO THE DEALERSHIP AND NUMEROUS TELEPHONE CALLS, I COULD NOT RECEIVE ANY DEFINITIVE ANSWER AS TO WHAT WAS BEING DIAGNOSED OR DONE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. EVENTUALLY, I HAD TO OPEN A CASE FILE THROUGH DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE. THEY TOO, WERE MET WITH THE SAME UNCERTAINTY AND COULD NOT PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. AFTER 40 DAYS IN MAINTENANCE AND A GREAT DEAL OF ACQUIRED STRESS, THE VEHICLE WAS FINALLY RETURNED IN WORKING ORDER. THE CAUSE ? A FAULTY, TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM). UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION OF THIS UNIT I HAVE COME TO FIND THAT (1) CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE, (2) THERE IS A NATIONAL BACKORDER FOR TIPM?S STRETCHING MONTHS, AND (3) LEGAL ACTION IS PENDING. DUE TO THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT I HAD TO ENDURE, I NO LONGER WANT THIS TRUCK, NOR DO I TRUST ITS INTEGRITY. ALTHOUGH THE SYSTEM FAILED AT MY HOME, IT COULD HAVE VERY WELL HAPPENED ON THE ROAD AND CAUSED ?WHO KNOWS WHAT?. I AM DONE WITH THIS VEHICLE. *TR

FOR THE 5TH TIME, MY TRUCK HAS STALLED WHEN I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I HAVE TO SHIFT TO P AND RESTART. NOT SURE IF ANYONE ELSE IS EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE.
