2017 Ram 1500 complaints

ON A 2 LANE RURAL ROAD OUR FRONT HIT THE SIDE OF ANOTHER VEHICLE THAT PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF US. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. MY SPEED WAS BETWEEN 30-40 MPH AT POINT OF IMPACT.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A WRECK BACK ON FEB 20TH OF 2019.THAT IMPACTED THE LOWER REAR C-POST OF MY TRUCK. JUST LAST WEEK AS THE BODY SHOP WAS BEGINNING PREPARATIONS TO REPLACE THE COMPLETE SIDE OF MY 2017 RAM 1500. WHEN THEY CUT OFF THE A/B-POSTS THEY NOTICED THE TRUCK HAD SURFACE RUST IN THE INNER STRUCTURE OF BOTH. RUST THAT SHOULD NOT BE IN THERE. THE C-POST AND ROCKER PANELS WERE COATED ON THE INSIDE BUT NOT THE OTHER TWO. I HAVE TAKEN PICTURES ALTHOUGH THEY ARE NOT AS GOOD AS ACTUALLY LOOKING AT THE ISSUE IN PERSON. THEY ARE REPLACING THAT BUT MAKES ME CONCERNED ABOUT OTHER RAMS AND HONESTLY THE OTHER SIDE OF MY TRUCK. A LOT OF THINGS CAN RUST ON A TRUCK AND YOU WOULD STILL BE CONSIDERED SAFE. THE A/B-POST IS NOT ON THAT LIST IN MY OPINION.

24 HOURS AFTER PURCHASE (200 MILES DRIVEN) A CHEMICAL ODOR AND IRRITANT FILLS THE CANE, MY 6 YEAR OLD STATED THE AIR HAS PEPPER IN IT. THE ISSUE WORSENED WHEN OPERATING THE HEAT/AC FUNCTION CAUSING EYES TO BURN, HEADACHE AND DISORIENTATION. MANY OWNERS ON PUBLIC FORUM HAVE NOTED SAME ISSUE AND COMMONLY MENTION THE CAUSE TO BE A REACTION OF FAULTY MANUFACTURED COOLANT HOSE BEING DISSOLVED BY THE COOLANT. CHRYSLER AND DEALERS HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED AS CONTINUOUS EXPOSURE OF TOXIC FUMES GREATLY INCREASES RISK OF CRASH. NO RESOLUTION HAS BEEN PROVIDED TO MY KNOWLEDGE.

I CAN HAVE A FULL TANK OF GAS AND IT WILL SAY LOW GAS AND THE GAS LIGHT WILL COME ON SOMETIMES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND READ FUEL SENSOR ERROR

AIR SUSPENSION WILL STOP WORKING CAUSING THE TRUCK TO RIDE DIRECTLY ON THE FRAME. ALSO, THE FRONT WILL DEFLATE WHILE THE BACK IS STILL INFLATED. ANY TIME THIS HAPPENS THE FUSE FOR THE AIR SUSPENSION IS BLOWN. HAS HAPPENED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS SINCE PURCHASING THE TRUCK. OCCURS WHILE VEHICLE IS PARKED AND NOT IN OPERATION.

TAKATA RECALL. IN THE WINTER MONTHS THERE ARE A HOST OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. AT TIMES, THE RADIO WILL NOT TUTN OFF AFTER I SHUT OFF THE VEHICLE. THE ONLY FIX WAS YO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY. THE BACKUP CAMERA GOES COMPLETELY GREEN ALSO. THE AIR SUSPENSION FAILS SEVERAL TIMES PER WEEK DURING THE WINTER MONTHS AS WELL. I HAVE IT PARKED OUTSIDE ALL THE TIME.

DURING HEAVY RAIN THE BACK DRIVER SIDE WELL (UNDERNEATH REAR SEAT-STORAGE AREA) FILLS WITH WATER. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TOMORROW TO DIAGNOSIS THE ISSUE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE REAR WINDOW DRAIN HOLES BEING PLUGGED BUT NOT CERTAIN. ONLY A YEAR OLD AND SURPRISED THIS OCCURRED. CHECKED YOUTUBE AND FOUND THIS ISSUE WITH OLDER MODELS OF RAM TRUCKS. ITS TAKEN A ACT OF CONGRESS TO GET DEALER TO SCHEDULE A FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. WENT TO LOCAL DEALER AND THEY TRIED TO REDIRECT TO A WATER SPECIALIST LOCALLY. THEY WERE AVOIDING THE WARRANTY OR JUST PLAIN LAZY. COME ON DODGE YOU CAN DO BETTER. I HAVE NOTICED THIS FROM THE TRUCK BEING PARKED IN FRONT OF MY HOME. I NOW PLACE TOWELS TO CAPTURE WATER ON RAINY DAYS.

TRIED TO GET RECALLS REPAIRED TOLD NO LOANER DONT DRIVE TRUCK...NO WAY TO GO TO WORK

DRIVING AT 35 MPH AND HIT BY A CAR TRYING TO PASS MY TRUCK. RAM TRUCK HIT A TREE HEAD ON ROLLED OVER ON DRIVERS SIDE AND FLIPPED TO ROOF. NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. *DSY

THE LIFTERS IN MY 3.6 LITER RAM 1500 ARE BAD AT 80000 MILES. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM REPORTED WITH THIS ENGINE IN 2011-2013 DODGE VEHICLES. DODGE KNOWS THIS IS STILL A PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY LOWERED THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY FROM 100000 MILES TO 60000 MILES. THEY HAVE NOT FIXED THE ISSUES WITH THE 3.6 LITER ENGINE. THEY NEED TO BE INVESTIGATED AND MADE TO MAKE APPROPRIATE REPAIRS.

5 DAYS AFTER HAVING THE TRUCK IN FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND RECALLS... I TOOK THE TRUCK THROUGH AN AUTOMATED CAR WASH. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THIS SAME CAR WASH SEVERAL TIMES. I PUT THE TRUCK IN NEUTRAL, AS INSTRUCTED BY THE ATTENDANT. AT THE END OF THE WASH, WHEN THE GREEN LIGHT CAME ON, I PUT IT INTO DRIVE. IT DID NOT MOVE. I TRIED MANY TIMES, BUT WITHOUT SUCCESS. FINALLY THE MANAGER CAME TO HELP ME, AND HE TOO WITNESSED THAT IT WOULD NOT MOVE. WE PUT IT INTO PARK, AND THEN INTO DRIVE, TWO MORE TIMES BEFORE IT FINALLY JERKED FORWARD. IN THE MEANTIME, I WAS HIT BY THE TRUCK BEHIND ME, AND SET OFF A CHAIN OF 5 VEHICLES COLLIDING. THE GEAR DIAL SAID I WAS IN DRIVE EACH TIME, BUT CLEARLY, I WAS NOT. I AM TAKING IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FIRST THING IN THE MORNING.

I WAS REAR ENDED ON NOV 3RD 2018. THE COLLISION CENTER WHERE MY XAR IS BEING FIXED HAS PUT THE ORDER IN FOR A BRAND NEW BOX ASSEMBLY DIRECTLY FROM DODGE AMD ITS BEEN ALMOST TWO MONTHS AND THERE IS NO PART AVAILABLE. I HAVE BEEN INCURRING COST FOR RENTALS AS MY TRUCK IS STILL IN THE SHOP WITH NO END IN SIGHT.

WHILE AT THE BOAT RAMP, PULLING A BOAT OUT OF THE WATER. THE TRUCK WAS ON AN INCLINE. THE BOAT WAS ABOUT 1200 - 1500 POUNDS TOTAL. THE TRUCK WAS IN PARK, PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED. SITTING IN THE CAB WITH THE SEAT BELT ON AND THE DOOR AJAR, PLACING THE TRANSMISSION IN DRIVE, AFTER THE TRANSMISSION ENGAGED I INCREASED THE RPM SLIGHTLY WITH THE GAS PEDAL AND THEN RELEASED THE PARKING BRAKE. THIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE NORMAL PROCEDURE THAT PREVENTS THE RIG FROM ROLLING BACKWARD. WHEN I DID THIS AND ADDED MORE THROTTLE THE TRUCK STARTED TO MOVE FORWARD BUT THEN QUICKLY DISENGAGED FROM PARK TO N, THE TRUCK STARTED TO ROLL BACKWARDS AND THE RPM INCREASED. I WAS ABLE TO APPLY THE BRAKE AND STOP. THIS REPEATED SEVERAL TIMES. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FLASHED A WARNING THAT THE TRUCK WAS NOT IN PARK. I BELIEVE THERE IS A FLAW IN THE AUTO PARK FEATURE. IT IS REPEATABLE. INCLINE, DOOR AJAR, BELT ON, FROM PARK TO DRIVE. ON FLAT GROUND I CAN NOT DUPLICATE.

VEHICLE WAS BEING OPERATED AT NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEED, WHEN IT RAN OFF THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD AND UP AN EMBANKMENT. THE VEHICLE WHEN AIRBORNE, BEFORE LANDING AND SLIDING ACROSS AN INTERSECTING ROAD. THE VEHICLE THEN STRUCK A GROUP OF TREES. THE CRASH RESULTED IN THE DEATH OF THE DRIVER. THE DRIVER WAS BELIEVED TO BE UNRESTRAINED. THE VEHICLE SUFFERED SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO THE RIGHT FRONT CORNER. THE AIRBAGS WERE NOT DEPLOYED AND A DOWNLOAD OF THE ACM REVELED IT RECORDED AN EVENT BUT NO CRASH OR PRE-CRASH INFORMATION. * DSY *DT *DT*JB

I WAS TRAVELING ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY WHEN I CAME UPON AN ACCIDENT INVOLVING MULTIPLE VEHICLES. I TOOK EVASIVE ACTION AND WAS ABLE TO STOP COMPLETELY AVOIDING THE VEHICLES INVOLVED, AND JUST BEHIND ONE VEHICLE THAT WAS PARTIALLY BLOCKING THE RIGHT LANE. I WAS STRUCK FROM BEHIND WHICH CAUSED THE DRIVERS SEAT TO GO INTO A RECLINING POSITION. MY TRUCK WAS PROPELLED FORWARD WITH ME IN A RECLINING POSITION. I FELT A SECONDARY IMPACT, WHICH DAMAGED THE FRONT OF MY VEHICLE. BECAUSE I WAS IN A RECLINING POSITION, I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL OR DIRECT MY VEHICLE. NONE OF THE AIRBAGS IN MY VEHICLE DEPLOYED. I SOMEHOW PULLED MYSELF ERECT AND EVENTUALLY CAME TO A STOP ON THE INSIDE GRASSY MEDIAN OF THE HIGHWAY.

MY TRUCK WAS INVOLVED IN A HEAD ON COLLISION WITH A GUARD RAIL WHILE TRAVELLING 55 MPH ON KY 210. NONE OF THE TRUCKS AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE INCLUDING THE ROCKER ARM SNAPPED OFF THE VEHICLE. THIS CAUSED THE TRUCK TO SLIDE ACROSS THE ROAD HITTING THE OTHER GUARD RAIL. THE TRUCK THEN SLID BACK ACROSS THE ROAD AND WAS NEARLY TIPPING OVER WHEN IT STRUCK THE FIRST GUARD RAIL. THE TRUCK CAME TO REST ON TOP OF THE GUARD RAIL BEFORE TIPPING OVER. I DID RECEIVE INJURIES WHICH MAY NOT HAVE OCCURRED IF THE AIR BAGS HAD DEPLOYED. THE ACCIDENT PROBABLY WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SEVERE IF THE TIRE HAD NOT CAME OFF CAUSING THE TRUCK TO SPIN HIT THE GUARD RAIL ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD.

AS THE VEHICLE WAS ACCELERATING AND I WAS STEERING THE THROUGH THE CURVES IN THE ROAD I HAD REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE GAS PEDAL AND TRIED HITTING THE CRUISE CONTROL OFF BUTTON SEVERAL TIMES. THIS HAD NO EFFECT IN STOPPING OR SLOWING THE ACCELERATION. THE TOTAL DISTANCE FROM MY TURN INTO THE SUBDIVISION TO THE END OF THE ROAD OR NEXT INTERSECTION WAS ROUGHLY 250-300 YARDS ALL DOWNHILL SO WE PICKED UP SPEED QUICKLY. BY THE TIME I REALIZED I COULD NOT EFFECT OR SLOW DOWN THE ACCELERATION BY SHUTTING OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL MY NEXT THOUGHT WAS TO HIT THE BRAKES BUT WE HAD RUN OUT OF ROAD. AT THIS POINT I CHOSE A DIRECTION WHERE I SAW NO HOUSES OR LARGE TREES. WE HIT AN AREA WHERE IT SLOPED UP ABOUT 30 DEGREES THEN FLATTENED OUT THEN SLOPED UP AGAIN COMING CLOSER TO OTHER HOUSES.
