2019 Ram 1500 complaints

WHEN VEHICLE IS AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND GOING INTO LEFT HAND CORNERS, THE STEERING WHEEL STICKS IF YOU GO PAST THE TEN O CLOCK POSITION. IT HAPPENS ONLY AFTER DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN ON RIGHT TURNS, THE WHEEL COMES BACK, BUT INTERMITTENTLY. ALMOST FEELS LIKE A WOBBLE?

EVEN THOUGH THE DEFROST SYSTEM SEEMS TO PUT OUT PLENTY OF HEAT THE FAN OR THE WAY THE WINDSHIELD IS DESIGNED, WHEN IT IS COLD OUT AND/OR I AM TRAVELING AT A DECENT SPEED THE DEFROSTER DOES NOT KEEP THE WINDSHIELD CLEAR. IT AFFECTS APROX. THE LAST COUPLE OF INCHES THAT THE WIPERS REACH AND THEN EVERYTHING ABOVE THAT. THIS THEN AFFECTS THE AUTO WIPING OPTION. THERE IS A RECALL FOR BASICALLY THIS EXACT ISSUE NHTSA CAMPAIGN # 19V051000 BUT IT DOES NOT INCLUDE MY MODEL OF VEHICLE. IT AFFECTS THE RAM 1500 THAT HAVE THE 12" SCREEN BUT DO NOT HAVE DUAL CLIMATE CONTROL. MY VEHICLE HAS THE 12' SCREEN BUT DOES HAVE DUAL CLIMATE CONTROL. THE DATE LISTED BELOW IS JUST A GENERAL DATE. THIS ISSUE WOULD HAPPEN WHEN IT WAS RAINING/SNOWING AND IT WAS COLD OR CLOSE TO FREEZING TEMPS

WAS DRIVING AND MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP HAD TO TURN OFF THE TRUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. WAS TURNING IN THE TURN LANE WHILE BRAKING AT THE TIME

MY WIPERS FAIL DURING RAIN. FIRST EVENT AT 70MPH IN HEAVY RAIN....VERY DANGEROUS. HAVE STOPPED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. DEALER CANNOT REPLICATE AND HESITATE TO DO ANYTHING. I HAVE VIDEO BUT IT CAN'T BE UPLOADED ON YOUR SITE.

WHEN I WAS DRIVING MY TRUCK TO SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE WAS COMPLETELY TURNED OFF AND IT IS THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENS, TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER COMES A LOW-VOLTAGE CODE IN THE BATTERY THAT THEY TELL ME IS WHEN YOU DO NOT DRIVE FOR A GOOD TIME , BUT THIS IS MY VEHICLE OF DAILY USE. CITY STREET

DRIVING MY TRUCK IN THE CITY AT THE TIME OF STOPPING THE COMPUTER AS IT DISCONNECTS THE CHANGE AND ASKS ME TO PUT IT BACK ON THE P AND THEN SELECT MY GEAR AGAIN, AND THAT ALREADY APASADO TWICE AS WELL.

WHILE BACK OUT MY GARAGE, ALL THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON AND STARTED FLASHING AND THE DASH STARTED DISPLAYING SERVICE TRACTION, SERVICE ELECTRICAL, SERVICE SHIFTER. AUTO PARK DISABLED. THE WIPERS WOULD COME ON AUTOMATICALLY WHEN IN THE OFF POSITION. SERVICE AIR BAG SYSTEM. ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL AND THERE WAS MORE. THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH STARTED FLASHING AND CONTINUED TO FLASH EVEN WHEN VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF. I DISCONNECTED WIRES FROM BATTERY TERMINAL TO KILL POWER SO THE LIGHTS WOULD STAY OFF. POWER DOORS WOULD LOCK OR UNLOCK

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 RAM 1500. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE REGARDING NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V067000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL SEPARATED AND FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS ENGAGED TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HOBLIT RAM TRUCK CENTER (1990 HAYS LN, WOODLAND, CA 95776, (530) 662-4667) WHERE THE RECALL REPAIR WAS BEING PERFORMED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE PEDAL SEPARATED AGAIN DURING THE RECALL REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000.

SINCE PURCHASE MY 2019 RAM TRUCK HAS LOTS OF ISSUES WITH THE 12 INCH SCREEN. IT CONTROLS EVERYTHING ON THE TRUCK. THE SCREEN GOES BLANK ALL THE TIME AND YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO CONTROL ANY THING ON THE TRUCK , STEPS , AIR CONDITION, HEAT ETC.... WHEN THE SCREEN ACTS UP THE AUTO RETRACTABLE RUNNING BOARDS STAY OUT UNTIL AROUND 15 MPH. ALSO THE AC AND HEAT WILL AUTOMATICALLY COME ON AND YOU CANT SHUT IF OFF, NO CONTROLS WILL WORK. I HAVE 27 VIDEOS OF MY TRUCK NOT WORKING RIGHT AND ALL DEALER SAYS IS SORRY WE CANT DUPLICATE. THE STEERING IS ALSO ALWAYS OFF. THE STEERING WHEEL GETS OFF TO THE LEFT THEN GOES OFF TO THE RIGHT. DEALER STATES IT TAKES 500 MILES FOR IT TO AUTO ALIGN IT SELF TO RE LEARN CENTER. FEEL FREE TO CALL [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A CURVY RURAL ROAD, MY VEHICLE LOST ALL THROTTLE CONTROL. I ALMOST WRECKED AND HAD TO STOP AT THE "EXIT" OF A BLIND 55MPH CORNER. THE VEHICLE HAD MULTIPLE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS ON INCLUDING A ELECTROMIC THROTTLE CONTROL FAILURE LIGHT, PARK BRAKE FAILURE LIGHT, TRAILER BRAKE FAILURE LIGHT (NO TRAILER CONNECTED AT THE TIME), AND A GENERIC CHECK ENGINE LIGHT.

I STARTED MY 2019 RAM 1500 IN A PARKING LOT AND SHIFTED TO DRIVE, I STARTED TO SLOWLY MOVE FORWARD WHEN I HEARD A ENGINE REVVING A COUPLE TIMES THEN ACCELERATE. I STOPPED LOOKED AROUND AND SAW NO VEHICLES IN MY PROXIMITY (OPEN SHIPPING DOCK). THEN I REALIZED THE SOUNDS WERE COMING FROM THE INSIDE OF MY VEHICLE. I STARTED TO MOVE AGAIN AND THE NOISES PERSISTED. I THOUGHT IT WOULD GO AWAY SO I PROGRESSED ONTO A PUBLIC STREET FROM THE SHIPPING DOCK PARKING LOT AND THE NOISES CONTINUED. I WAS FORCED TO PULL TO THE EDGE OF THE ROAD AND CYCLE THE IGNITION. IT TOOK TWO CYCLES OF THE IGNITION TO MAKE THE ISSUE CEASE. THE SECOND ISSUE WAS A ELECTRIC THROTTLE CONTROL FAILURE THAT RESULTED IN MY VEHICLE HAVING ZERO THROTTLE RESPONSE AND RESULTED IN THE VEHICLE GETTING TOWED TO THE SERVICING DEALER. I LIVE IN A RURAL AREA WITH A LOT OF 55MPH CURVY ROADS AND THIS THROTTLE FAILURE RESULTED IN A DISABLED VEHICLE THAT COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN HIT BY SURROUNDING TRAFFIC.

AFTER ~ 1000 MILES THE STEERING WHEEL DOES NOT RE-CENTER WHILE MAKING LEFT TURNS - EITHER ON EXIT/ENTRY RAMPS (BROAD SLOW TURNS) OR HARD LEFT TURNS. STEERING FIGHTS YOU TO BRING WHEEL AND TRUCK BACK TO CENTER. THIS HAPPENS AFTER DRIVING FOR AT LEAST 30 FOR 40 MINUTES AND IS ONLY FOR LEFT TURNS. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN FOR RIGHT TURNS. HAPPENS AFTER AND DURING HIGHWAY DRIVING. WHEN TURNING RIGHT, THE TURN HAPPENS AND THEN THE WHEELS NATURALLY RE-CENTER. THIS IS HARD TO DESCRIBE AND A SHORT TEST DRIVE DOES NOT PRODUCE THE PROBLEM. IT HAS TO BE DRIVEN FOR AT LEAST 30 MINUTES MOSTLY AT HIGHWAY SPEED. THIS IS HAPPENING FREQUENTLY..

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 RAM 1500. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE HIGH AND LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. AJ DOHMANN CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (24945 LA-1, PLAQUEMINE, LA 70764, (225) 687-5337) REPAIRED THE LIGHT SWITCH AND SENSORS, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

SINCE THE FIRST WEEK WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE WE HAVE HAD A BURNING WIRE SMELL. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO 2 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE EVEN HAVING THE VEHICLE FOR 4 DAYS. SCHEDULED TO TAKE IT BACK AND IT BURNED SITTING MY DRIVEWAY PARKED AND OFF. WE ALSO HAD AN ISSUE OF THE VEHICLE CUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. WE WERE TAKING IT BACK DUE TO THE DISPLAY SCREEN HAD TURNED BLUE FOR THE RADIO AND THE BURNING WIRE SMELL. WE WERE SCARED IT WOULD CATCH FIRE.

TRUCK HAS 442 MILES ON IT, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON BEGAN FLASHING. ENGINE MALFUNCTION LIGHT INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. SLUGGISH ON ACCELERATION, BLOWS HEAT REGARDLESS OF TEMPERATURE SETTING. ALL WHILE IN MOTION.

I STARTED MY TRUCK AND BEFORE I COULD PUT IT IN GEAR, A 'THROTTLE FAILURE' WARNING MESSAGE APPEARED ON MY DASH ALONG WITH SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS/SYMBOLS. I HAD NO THROTTLE RESPONSE AND THE ENGINE WAS STUCK AT APPROXIMATELY 1,000 RPM'S. I 'LIMPED' HOME AT A NEAR IDLE. I COULD PRESS THE GAS PEDAL A LITTLE OR A LOT, AND GOT NOTHING FROM THE TRUCK.

I WAS DRIVING FORWARD AT APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH. I ATTEMPTED TO SLOW DOWN BY LETTING OFF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, BUT THE TRUCK KEPT GOING. I WAS ABLE TO STOP, BY USING THE BRAKE, BUT IF I LET OFF THE BRAKE, THE TRUCK WOULD ACCELERATE. I DROVE TO DEALERSHIP WITHOUT USING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE TRUCK WAS LITERALLY STUCK AT 1500 RPM'S. A 'THROTTLE FAILURE' MESSAGE APPEARED ON THE DASH, ALONG WITH BASICALLY EVERY WARNING LIGHT AND SYMBOL.

2019 RAM LARAMIE GEAR SELECTOR WILL SHOW DRIVE AND NOT MOVE UNTIL THE RPM IS @ 2000 AND THEN SLAM INTO GEAR. THIS WAS AFTER BACKING INTO A PARKING SPOT AND THEN IMMEDIATELY GOING INTO DRIVE TO REPOSITION THE TRUCK. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE. ONCE AN HOUR AFTER PURCHASE AND ONCE THE NEXT DAY. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE 3 DAYS AGO, 3/29/19.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 RAM 1500. THE CONTACT RECEIVED RECALL NOTIFICATIONS FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 19V020000 (STEERING) AND 19V067000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). APPLE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OF HANOVER (200 EISENHOWER DR, HANOVER, PA 17331, 717-637-1101) WAS UNABLE TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME FRAME DUE TO THE PART BEING ON A NATION-WIDE BACKORDER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY 75 AND MY CAR SLIMIEST TURNED OFF AND SPUTTERED. I SLOWED DOWN LIKE I STOPPED ON BREAKS AND A 18 WHEELER HAD TO CHANGE LANES. I HEARD A POP AND THOUGHT IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN GAS BUT TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND FOUND OUT THE ENGINE LIFTERS HAS BROKEN/POPPED. THIS IS A DEFECT THAT COULD CAUSE LIVES TO BE LOST IF THE TRUCK HAS NOT BEEN PAYING ATTENTION. THE CAR HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED AND I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP AND MY SERVICE TECHNICIANS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO NUMEROUS RAM TRUCKS WITH HEMI'S 2013, 2014, AND 2015. THE MILEAGE RANGE THAT THIS HAPPENS IS FROM 40,000 TO 80,000 MILES WITHOUT WARNING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 RAM 1500. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE POWER STEERING FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT REGAINED CONTROL AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO BONIFACE-HIERS CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP (1775 E MERRITT ISLAND CAUSEWAY, MERRITT ISLAND, FL 32952, (321) 452-8181) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,350. *DT *TR

2019 RAM 1500 CLASSIC. EVERY TIME SMALL ROCK HITS THE WINDSHIELD IT WILL CHIP IT. GUARANTEED. I ALREADY HAVE 6 CHIPS IN 3 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP AND 3000 MOSTLY LOCAL-DRIVING MILES. THIS NEVER HAPPENED ON ANY OTHER VEHICLE I OWNED OR HAVE DRIVEN

WHILE DRIVING FOR ABOUT HALF HOUR AT 50MPH OR MORE THE STEERING SEEMS TO STICK WHEN I MAKE SLIGHT LEFT OR RIGHT TURNS TO SWITCH LANES OR MAKE SMALL TURNS. BEEN TO THE DEALER 4 TIMES FOR THE ISSUE AND THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. OTHER OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.HTTPS://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/RAM/1500/2019/STEERING/STEERING.SHTML#27

THE TRANSMISSION FAILED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. THE VEHICLE COASTED TO A STOP AND BECAME IMMOBILE. I COULD NOT GET THE TRANSMISSION TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL AND I WAS LEFT IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION AS MY VEHICLE WAS BLOCKING THE ROAD. THE POLICE AND OTHERS ARRIVED BUT NOBODY COULD MOVE THE TRUCK UNTIL THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED.

TOWING - TRUCK AS EQUIPPED IS SUPPOSED TO TOW 11410 LBS. WE HAVE SEVERE SWAY TOWING OUR 6900 LB TRAVEL TRAILER BEGINNING AT 45 MPH. WE HAVE A DISTRIBUTION HITCH AND ANTI SWAY BARS. TRAILER HAS BEEN INSPECTED BY TWO INDEPENDENT SERVICE PROVIDERS. TONGUE WEIGHT IS 800 LBS. TRUCK SEVERELY SQUATS WITH TRAILER ON IT. TECHS AT DEALERSHIP HAVE INDICATED THAT IT DOES NOT HAVE PROPER SUSPENSION OR TIRES, BUT DODGE REFUSES TO MAKE ANY REPAIR ATTEMPTS.

THIS 2019 RAM 1500 HAS SERIOUS PROBLEMS. IT SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO BE DRIVEN ON THE ROAD EVER AGAIN. I WOULD FEAR FOR MY OWN LIFE ALONG WITH OTHER PEOPLE ON THE ROAD. WHILE DRIVING MY 2019 RAM ELECTRONICS THROUGH OUT THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO FAIL. THIS WAS WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH ON THE FREEWAY. POWER STEERING, SHIFTER GEAR, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, AIRBAGS, 4WD SYSTEM, TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM, ABS SYSTEM, AUTO BRAKE SYSTEM ALL FAILED AT ONCE. NO HEADLIGHTS NO BRAKE LIGHTS AND NO TURN SIGNALS. THE DASHBOARD EVEN SHUT OFF. THIS IS A SERIOUS NIGHTMARE AND A DANGER TO EVERYONE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH MY VEHICLE AND ONLY WAS DRIVEN 20 MILES AFTER IS WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED. THEY REPLACED THE ECM. I BELIEVE THAT IF A LESS EXPERIENCED DRIVER WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT FOR SURE WOULD HAVE ENDED UP IN A ACCIDENT. AT THIS TIME CHRYSLER AND SNETHKAMP CDJR CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHAT THE EXACT ISSUE IS TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE

PARK TO DRIVE SHIFTING PROBLEM. TRANSMISSION AND INDICATORS GO TO FROM PARK TO DRIVE, HOWEVER VEHICLE DOES NOT MOVE. TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM YOU MUST PLACE THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE, THAN INTO DRIVE. IF YOU HIT GAS WHEN IT IS STUCK VEHICLE DOES NOT MOVE, THEN WILL LUNGE FORWARD AAT AN UNSAFE SPEED. VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 80 MILES HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS

THE TRUCK WAS BACKED UP IN THE DRIVEWAY.WHEN SHIFTING FROM PARK TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE REMAINED IN PARK AND THE ENGINE REVVED UP. TRIED AGAIN AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED EXCEPT AS THE RPM'S WERE COMING DOWN THE TRANSMISSION JUMPED INTO GEAR AND THE TRUCK LUNGED FORWARD WITHOUT WARNING.

MY TRUCK WAS DELIVERED WITH NO BOLTS SECURING THE REAR OF MY DRIVER'S SEAT TO THE FLOOR. I CAN COMPLETELY LIFT UP THE BACK OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT. *DT*JB

WHEN DRIVING AT SPEEDS ABOVE 60 MPH, THE HOOD FLEXES INWARDS AT THE CENTER OF HOOD CLOSE TO THE WINDSHIELD. IT COVERS AN AREA OF 10~12 INCHES IF NOT MORE. THIS WILL LEAD TO STRESS CRACKS AT THE HOOD AND PAINT.

WHILE DRIVING, THE BLIND SPOT MIRROR DETECTION DEVICE FAILED TO OPERATE AT ALL. NORMALLY WHEN A CAR IS ALONGSIDE YOU IN YOUR BLIND SPOT, A YELLOW ARROW WOULD BE INDICATED IN YOUR MIRROR. THE YELLOW ARROW FAILED TO APPEAR EVEN DURING SEVERAL TESTS OF THE FEATURE. THE CONSUMER RELIES HEAVILY ON THIS DEVICE AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO INFORM ME THAT IT WAS NOT WORKING. NOT WORKING (NO YELLOW LIGHT IN MIRROR MEANS IT'S SAFE TO ENTER ANOTHER LANE). NOT WORKING, NOT WORKING IS A RECIPE FOR DISASTER.

RECALL STATING MY BRAKE PEDAL MAY FALL OFF WHICH CAN BE DANGEROUS TO MYSELF AND 2 KIDS OR OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 RAM 1500. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A SECOND RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V067000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). RON CARTER CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM OF LEAGUE CITY (3535 GULF FWY, DICKINSON, TX 77539, 281-488-4060) INDICATED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE DEALER ALSO INDICATED THAT MORE THAN 100 CONSUMERS WERE ON A WAITING LIST AND THEY WERE RECEIVING TWO PARTS PER MONTH FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT. *TT

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, INITIATING A SWEEPING LEFT HAND TURN, LIKE AN ON-RAMP, THE STEERING WHEEL 'STICKS' TO THE LEFT WANTING TO CONTINUE A SWEEPING LEFT TURN AND REQUIRING A SIGNIFICANT PULL TO FORCE RECENTERING THE TRUCK. (DESCRIBES LIKE BREAKING A BOLT LOOSE). INTERMITTENT REPLICATION REQUIRING HIGHWAY SPEEDS MEANS DEALERSHIP IS WRITING IT OFF AS 'NORMAL OPERATION'.

I TOOK MY TRUCK INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL ECONOMY BEING SEVERELY BELOW THE EPA RATING. WHILE AT THE DEALERSHIP, I FOUND OUT THAT THE DEALERSHIP SOLD ME A BRAND NEW TRUCK WITH TWO OPEN RECALLS THAT WERE UNREPAIRED. I BELIEVE THIS IS ILLEGAL.

SAFETY RECALL FOR STEERING GROUND CABLE WAS FIXED BY DEALER AND MY POWER STEERING IS STILL INTERMITTENTLY GOING AWAY CAUSING STEERING TO LOCK UP TEMPORARILY. TAKING BACK TO DEALER FOR SECOND TIME TO SEE IF THEY CAN FIX IT. IT IS NOT SAFE AND ALMOST CAUSED ME TO CROSS THE CENTER LINE AT 55 MPH AND HIT A CAR HEAD ON.

VEHICLE STEERING STICKS DURING LEFT TURNS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. AFTER VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN FOR APPROX 1 HOUR, DURING LEFT TURNS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, 65+ MPH, THE STEERING WILL HOLD AT APPROXIMATELY THE 10 O'CLOCK POSITION RESULTING IN UNPREDICTABLE AND UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS. DUE TO THE REQUIREMENT OF HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND APPROX 1 HR DRIVE TIME, DEALERSHIPS WON'T TAKE THE EFFORT TO BE ABLE TO REPLICATE THIS SAFETY ISSUE. WITHOUT REPLICATION BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND RAM CUSTOMER SERVICE CONSIDER IT A NON ISSUE. THIS ISSUE IS NOT RELATED TO THE GROUND RECALL ALREADY ISSUED FOR THE 2019 RAMS. THIS SAFETY ISSUE IS ALSO REPORTED BY NUMEROUS OTHER 2019 RAM OWNERS IN ONLINE FORUMS. EFFORTS TO GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP AND RAM CUSTOMER SUPPORT HAVE BEEN UNSATISFACTORY. THIS IS NOT A MINOR PROBLEM AND COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS DAMAGE OR LOSS OF LIFE ON THE ROAD. JUST BECAUSE A PROBLEM CANNOT BE REPLICATED IN A SHORT TEST DRIVE DOES NOT EQUATE TO THEIR NOT BEING A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN ON THESE VEHICLES.*DT CONSUMER HAD THE RECALL PERFORMED AND THE STEERING PROBLEM IS STILL PRESENT. WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL STICKS YOU HAVE TO APPLY SOME EXTRA FORCE TO GET IT TO RETURN TO CENTER AS WELL AS SOMETIMES IT WILL HOLD MOMENTARILY AND JERK BACK ON ITS OWN. THE CONCERN IS THE UNPREDICTABILITY OF IT AND THE POTENTIAL OVER/UNDER STEER AT HIGHER SPEEDS. ONCE THE PROBLEM PRESENTS ITSELF AFTER LONGER PERIODS OF DRIVING IT WILL ALSO THEN DO IT OCCASIONALLY AT SLOWER SPEEDS AS WELL. THE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED MORE THAN TWICE WITHOUT WARNING. BENNY BOYD GONZALES CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (3698 US-183, GONZALES, TX 78629, (830) 445-4001) INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NEED TO REMAIN WITH THEM TO BE TEST DRIVEN BECAUSE A DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE WAS NOT LOCATED. A BUY BACK OFFER WAS STATED BY THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT A REPAIR SOLUTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130. *DT *TR

SINCE PURCHASING NEW, MY 2019 RAM 1500 (NEW BODY) HAS BEEN PULLING TO THE RIGHT WHEN BRAKING ON THE HIGHWAY. ITS NOT THE CROWN OF THE ROAD SINCE THE SAME MODEL LOANER TRUCK DID NOT PULL. I HAVE DRIVEN IT FOR 5600 MILES AND IT PULLS TO THE RIGHT WHEN BRAKING ON THE HIGHWAY. DEALERS AND FCA ARE NOT WILLING TO HELP DUPLICATE OR DIAGNOSE. THEY BELIEVE THERE IS NO PROBLEM. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS VEHICLE MY NOT BE SAFE AND OPERATING AS DESIGNED

02/05/19: BRAKE RECALL (* SOURCE: WWW.MOPAR.COM) 'AN ADJUSTABLE BRAKE PEDAL ASSEMBLY THAT ALLOWS THE BRAKE PEDAL ADJUSTMENT TO OVER TRAVEL COULD CAUSE THE BRAKE PEDAL TO BECOME SEPARATED FROM THE PEDAL ASSEMBLY. IF THE BRAKE PEDAL SEPARATES FROM THE ADJUSTABLE PEDAL ASSEMBLY, THE DRIVER MAY BE UNABLE TO USE THE BRAKE PEDAL TO APPLY THE SERVICE BRAKES, WHICH CAN CAUSE VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.' I'VE CALLED THREE LOCAL DEALERSHIPS AND ALL HAVE EXPRESSED THAT THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME FROM FCA AS OF TODAY (02/23/19). THIS DOESN'T SEEM ACCEPTABLE AS THIS RECALL WAS ISSUED NEARLY THREE WEEKS AGO.

STEERING IS STIFF WHEN COMING OUT OF A LEFT TURN. VERY RELUCTANT TO COME BACK TO ZERO ALMOST AS IF THERE IS A DEAD SPOT IN THE STEERING RACK ITSELF.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY FEEDER ROAD, AND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME MADE AN EMERGENCY STOP. I SLAMMED ON MY BRAKES, AND SWERVED INTO THE LANE TO THE RIGHT OF ME. A CAR WAS COMING UP IN THAT LANE AT HIGH SPEED SO I HIT THE ACCELERATOR TO GET OUT OF THE WAY, AND THE TRUCK ACCELERATED AT FULL POWER. I LIFTED MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR, BUT THE PEDAL STAYED ON THE FLOOR AND THE TRUCK KEPT ACCELERATING. I THEN SWITCHED TO THE BRAKE PEDAL, AND HAD TO USE MAXIMUM BRAKING FORCE TO KEEP THE TRUCK FROM FURTHER ACCELERATING INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. THE VEHICLE THEN DISPLAYED THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH. WHILE HARD ON THE BRAKES, I WAS ABLE TO WORK MY WAY OFF THE FEEDER ROAD AND INTO A PARKING LOT. DURING THIS WHOLE TIME THE ACCELERATOR WAS ON THE FLOOR AND THE TRUCK WAS TRYING TO OUT POWER THE BRAKES. AS I ENTERED THE PARKING LOT I PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL USING THE TRANSMISSION SELECTOR KNOB, AND THE ACCELERATOR RETURNED TO IT'S NORMAL OPERATING POSITION AND THE WARNING LIGHT WENT AWAY. I THEN POWERED OFF THE VEHICLE ENTIRELY. A MINUTE OR SO LATER I GOT AN EMAIL FROM FCA UCONNECT THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED SERVICE AND THE ERROR THAT THE TRUCK GAVE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 RAM 1500. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH AND MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE VEHICLE JOLTED FORWARD AND CRASHED INTO A SECOND VEHICLE. AFTER THE COLLISION, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WHEEL WAS DAMAGED AND POINTED TO THE LEFT OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL, THE FRONT WHEELS DID NOT TURN IN EITHER DIRECTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A COLLISION CENTER FOR REPAIRS. APPROXIMATELY THREE MONTHS LATER, THE FAILURE RECURRED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH AND MAKING A LEFT TURN. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE COLLISION CENTER. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE STEERING MECHANISM KNUCKLE FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.

WHILE DRIVING, POWER STEERING UNAVAILABLE CAUTION FOLLOWED BY SERVICE SUSPENSION IMMEDIATELY. POWER STEERING IS LOST WHILE DRIVING AND INTERMITTENTLY COMES BACK OR IS LOST. I HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE AND THEY 'CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG'. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING AT 50-70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAYS AND INTERSTATE.

WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH VEHICLE INDICATED POWER STEERING FAILURE. POWER STEERING SERVICE NEEDED. I WAS DRIVING AND COULD NOT RUN STEERING WHEEL APPROACHING TURN. ALMOST DIED UNABLE TO TURN WHEEL. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 10024 MILES AND PURCHASED BRAND NEW. A CATASTROPHIC ACCIDENT INVOLVING MY FAMILY AND OTHERS COULD HAVE OCCURRED. I HAVE LOOKED INTO THIS VIA FORUMS FOR 2019 RAM 1500 AND THERE SEEMS TO BEEN MULTIPLE ISSUES REPORTED WITH SIMILAR ISSUES. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE FOLLOW UP WITH FCA TO ADDRESS POWER STEERING FAILURE ISSUES AS DEADLY CONSEQUENCES CAN HAPPEN. PLEASE DO NOT WAIT ON THIS.

WHEN FILLING THE TANK, I NOTICE A LEAK ON THE TANK. AT THE MOMENT OF THE LEAK, IT WAS HALF A TANK. NOT SURE IF THE PROBLEM WAS FROM A TUBE THAT CONNECT TO THE TANK. *DT *DT*JB

CONTACTED DEALERSHIP AT (787) 805-3000 TO VERIFY RECALL I HAD HEARD WHERE MY VEH COULD BE AFFECTED. THEY GAVE ME APPOINTMENT BUT SAID HAVE NO PARTS AVAILABLE. BUT IF IT COULD BE SERIOUS IN NATURE (REFERENCE RECALL 4) WHY ARE WE NOT EVEN TOLD, TO BE SAFE WITH OURSELVE, FAMILY AND GENERAL PUBLIC, THAT WE SHOULD NOT DRIVE UNIT. ISSUE WITH GROUND COULD AFFECTED STERRING CAPABILITIES AND MAY EVEN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND/OR CRASH. WHY NOT BE MORE PROACTIVE FOR THE SAFETY OF ALL PEOPLE AFFECTED AND GENERAL PUBLIC. FOR TWO DIFFERENT OCASSIONS WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC, OUT OF THE BLUE, MY HAZARD LIGHTS TURN ON AND I CANT DISABLE THEM. I'VE TOLD THIS TO DEALER AND SEEMS ITS NOT A MAYOR ISSUE. EVEN HAVE SUGGECTED TO CONTINUE DRIVING WITHOUT CONCERN, REALLY! I BELIEVE IT'S IRRESPONSABLE TO HAVE THAT POSTURE AS A CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE. I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THE RAM TRUCK, EXCELLENT UNIT. BUT THIS ATTITUDE TOWARDS SOLVING ISSUES LIKE THE ONE ALREADY DESCRIBED TELLS MUCH ABOUT THEIR CONCERN OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC. DON'T KNOW IF THIS WILL MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE, BUT I HOPE SOMEONE CAN TAKE MY CONCERN MORE SERIOUSLY AND PROBABLY SAVE LIVES. THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

THE MAIN HEAD UNIT LOST SOUND AND I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE I HAVE RESTARTED MY TRUCK MULTIPLE TIMES WITH NO LUCK THE SOUND WAS WORKING JUST THE NIGHT BEFORE I WAS AT A STAND STILL ORIGINALLY THEN STARTED DRIVING ON A CITY ROAD. THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON FORUMS FOR THE 2019 DOING THAT AND HOPEFULLY THEY CAN FIGURE OUT A SOLUTION TO FIX IT A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE SAID TO UNPLUG FUSES BUT I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO I SPEND THE MONEY ON A TRUCK AT ASTRONOMICAL RATE AND EXPECT IT TO WORK.

LOST POWER STERRING TWICE. TOOK TO DEALER WITH A RECALL I SAW ABOUT 12 VOLT BATTERY GROUND FASTENER MAY BE LOOSE. HAD IT CHECKED OUT AND ABOUT 5 DAYS LATER LOSS POWER STERRING AGAIN. POWER STERRING DID NOT COME BACK.HAD TRUCK FLATBEDED TO DEALER. THEY SAID POWER STERRING RACK WAS SHOT.HAVE TO WAIT ABOUT 2 TO3 WKS. FOR PARTS AND REPAIR.THE TRUCK HAS ABOUT 1600 MILES ON IT (SUCKS). WAS IN PARKING LOT FIRST TIME,THANK GOD.IN DRIVEWAY SEC. TIME

85 MILES ON VEHICLE PUT VEHICLE IN DRIVE NO MOVEMENT SHIFTED TO PARK THEN BACK TO DRIVE NO MOVEMENT SHIFTED TO REVERSE MOVEMENT SHIFTED TO DRIVE MOVEMENT THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE ISSUE WITH THE 2006 MEGA. AN TRANSMISSION *DT*JB
