ON THURSDAY JULY 16, 2020. WHILE CHANGING THE REAR RIGHT FLAT TIRE. I REMOVED THE FLAT TIRE AND ATTEMPTING TO LOWER THE SPARE TIRE DOWN. THE JACK BROKE IN HALF CAUSING THE TRUCK TO LAND ON THE ROTOR. IT WAS A BLESSING THAT I WAS USING THE WRONG END OF THE BAR THAT LOWER THE TIRE. THIS DELAYED ME FROM GETTING THE SPARE. IF I HAD USED THE CORRECT END OF THE BAR I WOULD BEEN UNDER THE VEHICLE GETTING THE TIRE OFF OF THE CABLE. THE RIGHT TAIL PIPE LANDED ON THE CURB OF THE PARKING STALL. (YOU LOWER THE TIRE FROM THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE BUMPER SO THAT IS WHERE I WOULD HAVE BEEN). I CALLED DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICEI AND INFORMED THEM OF THE INCIDENT. I WAS INSTRUCTED BY CUSTOMER SERVICE TO GO TO THE HANFORD CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM DEALER SO I CAN GET ANOTHER JACK. (THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT THE JACK HAD BEEN USED SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE). ONCE I ARRIVED AT THE DEALER I WAS DIRECTED TO THE PARTS DEPARTMENT. I WAS INFORMED BY THE PARTS MANAGER WHO CONTACTED DODGE HEADQUARTERS THAT THIS WAS UNDER REVIEW. I COULD NOT GET A JACK. ALSO IF I DID GET A JACK IT WOULD BE THE SAME STYLE JACK THAT I ALMOST LOST MY LIFE FROM. I INFORMED HIM I WAS NOT COMFORTABLE WITH THE SAME STYLE JACK. I WANTED TO UPGRADE. HE STATED HE HAD TO WAIT ON YOUR COMPANY FOR APPROVAL. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN WITH THE COMPANY THAT A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE AS THIS ONE, THAT ALMOST CAUSE ME MY LIFE HAVE YET TO RESPOND. IT WOULD BE BEST TO INFORM THEIR CUSTOMER TO INSURE TO TAKE THE SPARE TIRE OFF FIRST BEFORE JACKING

I HAD PROBLEMS WHEN YOU GO TO FILL UP THE TANK OF GASOLINE. ALSO PROBLEMS WITH THE POWER WINDOWS. PROBLEMS WITH THE RADIO AND BLUETOOTH WHEN YOUR ARE DRIVING.

THE PEDAL LAG WHILE TAKIN OFF FROM STOP THE PEDAL POSITION FREQUENCY ISNT CONSISTENT LOSS OF MPG COMPLETELY STOCK TRUCK ECO DIESEL CAN EVEN GET ABOVE 19MPG AVG LOSS OF POWER MPG AND PEDAL LAG ALONG WITH JUNK EMISSIONS THAT DESTROY ENGINES THEREFORE HAVE TO MAKE MORE PARTS OR TRUCKS ETC USING MORE FUEL TO POWER THESE MANUFACTURING PLANTS

STARTED HAVING TROUBLE IN THE STEERING. TIGHTENING UP AND HARD TO STEER. SOME THING WAS WRONG WITH THE STEERING SHAFT. AND WITH THIS BAD IT CAUSED THE RACK AND PINION TO GO BAD. COULDN'T GET IT PROGRAMMED AFTER THE SHAFT WAS FIXED BECAUSE OF THE RACK AND PINION. SO ITS IN THE SHOP NOW AND WILL BE IN THERE FOR OVER 2 WEEKS WAITING ON THE RACK AND PINION.I HAVE HAD THIS TRUCK JUST OVER A YEAR AND I'M HAVING TO PUT OVER 3000.00 IN IT. IT WAS HARD TO STEER GOING AROUND A CORNER. THE WHEEL WOULD STICK AND I WOULD HAVE TO TURN IT BACK. TRYING TO BACK UP THE WHEEL WAS HARD TO TURN. *TR

MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF SERVICE DUE TO A DEFECT IN THE 8.4 UCONNECT RADIO. THE RADIO (HEAD UNIT) HAS MISFUNCTIONED AND DRAINS THE BATTERY UNTIL DEAD.

THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON PAST AND PRESENT MODELS ' A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED TO MAKE OWNERS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AS THE PARTS ARE NOT READILY AVAILABLE. IT IS UNKNOWN WHEN I WILL HAVE AN OPERATIONAL VEHICLE.

RECALL VB!/NHTSA 19V-757 ,WHEN I GOT THIS RECALL A COUPLE MONTHS AGO I WENT TO MY DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE IN APRIL, CALLED APRIL 16TH AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY HAVE A LOT OF VEHICLES ON THE LOTS THAT NEED TO BE FIXED FIRST AND CHECK BACK IN JUNE TO SEE IF THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE FOR MY VEHICLE. WHEN I LOOKUP THE PROBLEMS MANY OF THE SAME VEHICLES LIKE MINE ARE BURNING IN JUST A SHORT TIME. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS HAS NOT BEEN A PRIORITY FOR THE DEALER OR MANUFACTURE.

WAS INFORMED NO PARTS WERE AVAILABLE, NOR WOULD THEY BE AVAILABLE UNTIL AT LEAST THE END OF APRIL. WAS INFORMED TRUCKS THAT USED ANTIFREEZE COOLANT DUE TO CRACKED EGR WOULD GET REPLACED/REPAIRED FIRST. MY TRUCK HAS APPETITE FOR COOLANT, HAVE USED A BIT OVER 2 GALLONS SINCE NEW. YOU CAN SMELL COOLANT, ONE WOULD THINK THERE WAS A LEAK, WAS INFORMED IT WAS THE CRACKED EGR. COOLANT IN THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER WILL CAUSE PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE. MY TRUCK WAS NOT RETURNED TO ME UNTIL 2/25/20 BECAUSE OF OTHER NEEDED WORK. MY FUEL MILEAGE HAS BEEN WELL BELOW THE EPA RATED 27 MPG, IS IT BECAUSE OF THE EGR? I HAD FAMILY EMERGENCY IN CALIF AND I PLANNED TO DRIVE THERE FROM MY HOME HERE IN AK, BUT DEALERSHIP DID NOT RECOMMEND DRIVING THAT FAR BECAUSE OF POSSIBLE ENGINE FAILURE ALONG THE WAY. I TRIED TRADING THE TRUCK FOR ANOTHER ONE, BUT NO DEALERSHIP WILL TAKE A TRUCK IN IN TRADE WITH A OPEN RECALL LIKE THIS! NOT EVEN A RAM DEALERSHIP! I DON'T HAVE ANY OPTIONS EXCEPT WAIT AND NOW THAT THE THE NATION IS HAVING CORONAVIRUS PROBLEMS, HOW MUCH LONGER WILL I WAIT FOR PARTS? THIS DEFECT CAN CAUSE FIRE OR POSSIBLY ACCIDENT DUE TO ENGINE FAILURE

TRUCK LEAKS SOMEWHERE. IT IS IN THE SHOP RIGHT NOW FOR THE 3RD TIME FOR THE LEAK. GOT TOLD IT WAS FIXED 2 TIMES ALREADY AND IT STILL LEAKED. THE TRUCK HAS HEATED BACK SEATS AND THAT'S WHERE THE TRUCK HOLDS WATER, UNDERNEATH THE BACK SEAT STORAGE. I WON'T USE THE HEATED BACK SEATS CAUSE MY CARPET STAYS WET WHEN IT'S RAINING. THERE IS ALSO A SUBWOOFER UNDER THE BACKSEAT WHERE IT HOLDS WATER, IT'S GOTTEN REPLACED ONCE ALREADY FROM THE WATER DAMAGE. AND IT HAS GOTTEN WET AGAIN. THE CARPET GOT REPLACED ONCE, THERE WAS MOLD, AND THE CARPET GOT WET AGAIN SO THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE TO REPLACE IT AGAIN CAUSE THERE IS MORE THAN LIKELY MOLD FROM IT HOLDING WATER.

SEVERE POWER LAG FROM THE TIME YOU PUSH THE ACCELERATOR TO THE TIME THE VEHICLE ACTUALLY INCREASES SPEED. FUEL MILEAGE HAS DECREASED 30%. THIS IS A PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE.

I ENTERED MY VEHICLE 2018RAM1500 THIS MORNING AFTER IT HAD BEING STORED INSIDE MY GARAGE OVERNIGHT. I SAT DOWN, PRESSED THE BRAKE AND WAS ABOUT TO START IT WHEN I NOTICED THE SHIFTER DIAL WAS ON 'R' AND BEGAN BEEPING CONTINUOUSLY. I USED THE IGNITION BUTTON TO SWITCH FROM 'OFF' "ACC" TO 'START' AND BACK/FORTH AND PRESSING ON THE BRAKE UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO SHIFT THE TRANSMISSION TO 'P'. ONCE IN 'P' I PRESSED THE BRAKE AND THEN STARTED THE TRUCK. WHEN I PROCEEDED TO MOVE ON REVERSE OUT OF MY GARAGE, IT BEGAN BEEPING CONTINUOUSLY AND FLASHING TWO MESSAGES ON THE DISPLAY , "SERVICE SHIFTER" FOLLOWED BY "SERVICE TRANSMISSION SHUT OFF ENGINE TO ENGAGE PARK" THEN MY RADIO BLACKOUT. I COULD STILL HEAR MUSIC AND WAS ABLE TO CONTROL IT BUT THERE WAS NO DISPLAY.

I WANT TO REPORT A SAFETY CONCERN. THE CONCERN IS ALREADY AWARE BY THE MANUFACTURER BUT I WANT TO ADDRESS THE POTENTIAL RISK IT PUT OUR FAMILY IN. THE RECALL IS KNOWN AS THE VB! OR NHTSA # 19V-757. WE BOUGHT THIS TRUCK TO HAVE A NICE AND RELIABLE CAR TO TRANSPORT OUR 1 YEAR OLD CHILD IN. OUR LAST 2012 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LEFT US STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RODE WITH OUR KID DUE TO THE COMPUTER TELLING ALL INJECTORS TO STAY OPEN AND RESULTING IN THE MOTOR HYDRO-LOCKING ITSELF. WE TOOK OUT FINANCING TO PURCHASE AND THE GREAT 2018 ECODIESEL DODGE RAM. JUST 2 MONTHS INTO OWNING THIS MY WIFE LOST ALL POWER GOING DOWN THE FREEWAY. SHE REPORTED MASS AMOUNT OF SMOKE COMING FROM THE HOOD AND THANK GOD SHE MANAGED TO MERGE OVER ALL LANES AND TO THE BEST OF HER ABILITY WITH NO POWER GOT THE TRUCK OFF THE HIGHWAY BY ABOUT 5 FEET AND THEN QUICKLY TURNED OFF THE MOTOR AND DISTANCED HER SELF FROM THE TRUCK. SHE CALLED ME IN COMPLETE PANIC. THIS STORY WOULD BE MUCH DIFFERENT IF OUR CHILD WAS STRAPPED INTO THE CAR SEAT ON THIS PARTICULAR DRIVE. SINCE THIS OCCURRENCE THE TRUCK HAS BEEN PARKED IN OVER FLOW AT MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND CONTINUES TO SIT UNTIL FIAT DISCOVERS A CORRECT REPAIR TO THE CRACKING EGR. I WARN YOU TO ALL YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS THAT YOU HAUL DOWN THE ROAD IN YOUR ECODIESEL. THIS IS A REAL CONCERN! DEALERSHIP HAS CONFIRMED THIS WAS A RESULT OF THE VB1 RECALL. THEIR WAS NO EXTERIOR DAMAGE TO THE TRUCK AS THE MOTOR WAS QUICKLY SHOT OFF. THE INTAKE MANIFOLD NEEDS TO BE REPLACED,

THE AIR SUSPENSION FAILS AND THE FRONT END GOES DOWN AND ITS A VERY ROUGH RIDE .WITH IN 28000 K MILES IT HAS GONE BACK TO REPAIR THREE TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. CALLED RAM HELP CENTER THEY WONT TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK OR DO RECALL .BIG SAFETY PROBLEM. *LN*JB

I BOUGHT MY 2018 RAM 1500 EXPRESS CREW CAB 4X4 A YEAR AND 2 MONTHS AGO. IN ABOUT A MONTH AFTER PURCHASE I GOT A STAR-SHAPED CRACK ON MY WINDSHIELD. IN A FEW DAYS I SLIGHTLY HIT THE WINDSHIELD WITH A WIPER TO REMOVE A SNOW FROM IT. AND THAT STAR-SHAPED CRACK SUDDENLY WENT ALL WAY THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD, FROM SIDE TO SIDE. I REPLACED THE WINDSHIELD WITH THE OEM MOPAR ONE, IDENTICAL TO THE FACTORY ONE. A FEW DAYS AGO I WAS DRIVING THROUGH A LITTLE TOWN WHERE I WORK, MAINTAINING THE SPEED OF 30 MPH DUE TO THE LIMIT. SUDDENLY I HEARD SOMETHING (VERY FAR FROM SIGNIFICANTLY HEAVY) HIT MY WINDSHIELD. I'VE GOT A 3-4 INCH CRACK FROM THE BOTTOM RIGHT EDGE (PASSENGER SIDE). I CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER, AND IT'S REPRESENTATIVE TOLD ME TO GO TO THE AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR INSPECTION. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP SHOWED ME THERE IS A TINY, NEEDLE TIP SIZE ROCK CHIP, ABOUT A COUPLE INCHES FROM THE EDGE ON THE CRACK. HE SAID, THERE'S NO ISSUE WITH ANYTHING ABOUT THE WINDSHIELD ITSELF AND STATED THAT I HAVE TO REPLACE IT ON MY OWN. I CALLED BACK THE MANUFACTURER AND GOT THE RESPONSE THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO FOR ME IN SUCH A CASE. BUT AS A PART OF THE COMMON SENSE: IF THE WINDSHIELD GETS CRACKED SO EASILY, FROM THE CONSUMER'S STANDPOINT THERE'S AN OBVIOUS MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND SIGNIFICANT DEVIATION FROM THE DEFINED QUALITY AND SAFETY STANDARDS.

THE CENTER CONSOLE ON THE TRUCK FREEZE UP, TURN BLUE FOR A FEW THEN RESETS OR TURN BLACK THE RESETS OR WHEN REVERSING THE BACKUP CAMERA FREEZES AND STILL SHOWS THE PICTURE WHEN YOU PUT THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT A YEAR, UCCONECT AND RAM SAID THERE WOULD BE A FIX IN DEC 2019 AND THERE IS STILL NO FIX, LOOKING AT YOUR RECALLS RECALLS FROM THE DEC 2019 NOTICES RECALL UMBER 19V-886 OR CHRYSLER'S UMBER VE2 IS THE EXACT SAME THING THAT IS GOING ON WITH MY TRUCK

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A WINDY COUNTRY ROAD AND THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED ITSELF AND SET TO 90 MPH WHILE I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 50-55. CANCEL DID NOTHING, USING THE BRAKES CAUSED THEM TO SQUEAL BUT THE VEHICLE REMAINED ACCELERATING. I WAS ABLE TO DISENGAGE BY PUTTING THE ENGINE IN NEUTRAL AND USING THE PUSH BUTTON TO SHUT IT OFF.

AIR SUSPENSION GIVES OUT WILL AT HIGH RATES OF SPEED. IT BECOMES UNSAFE TO DRIVE. AND IS NOT RELIABLE TO BE ON THE ROAD AS NOT HAVING SUSPENSION IN A NEW VEHICLE AT HIGH OR SLOW RATES OF SPEED IS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAD HAPPENS AND WILL BE IN THE SHOP AGAIN FOR A QUICK FIX BY THE DEALER. I WILL BE CONTACTING WA STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL TO DO A LEMON LAW AS THIS FALL IN THE UN SAFE CATEGORY.
