2014 Ram 2500 complaints

YOUR RECALL REMEDY FOR 19V-021 IS UNACCEPTABLE. THE SOLUTION OF WELDING THE DRAG LINK ADJUSTER NUTS TO THE SLEEVE, PERMANENTLY RENDERS THE VEHICLE FROM BEING PROPERLY ALIGNED FOREVER. THE ONLY WAY AROUND THIS IS TO BREAK THE WELDS, ADJUST THE STEERING SLEEVE AND THEN WELDING THE NUTS AGAIN. THIS IS AN UNACCEPTABLE SOLUTION AS MOST ALIGNMENT SHOPS DO NOT HAVE WELDING EQUIPMENT TO DO THIS, THUS POTENTIALLY PLACING THE VEHICLE OCCUPANTS IN DANGER AGAIN. YOUR AGREED SOLUTION DOES ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO ADDRESS PERMANENT FIX AND WAS NOTHING MORE THAN A WAY TO MITIGATE COST FOR FCA. THIS PERMANENT FIX NEEDS TO BE INSTALLATION OF THE REDESIGNED PART OR REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE PURCHASE/INSTALLATION OF AN AFTERMARKET PART THAT WILL NOT SUFFER THE SAME POTENTIAL FAILURE AS THE PART UNDER RECALL.

2014 DODGE RAM 2500. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DRAG LINK SAFETY RECALL. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE RECALL REPAIR FOR THE DRAG LINK WOULD CAUSE COMPLICATIONS WITH GETTING AN ALIGNMENT, REQUIRING THE WELD FIX TO BE BROKEN AND THEN RE-WELDED EACH ALIGNMENT. *JS

5" UCONNECT RADIO (RA2) RESPONSIBLE FOR TOUCH SCREEN SAFETY OPTIONS ON TOP OF BEING OTHER THAN FOR JUST BEING A "SMART" RADIO FOR CALLS AND SUCH...

POWER MUST BE DISCONNECTED TO PROTECT THE BATTERY. TOOK TO DEALER. WAS TOLD THE RADIO HAS NO FIX OTHER THAN TO REPLACE THE WHOLE (COSTLY) UNIT. I HAVE SCOURED THE INTERNET FORUMS AND MANY HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE.

WHILE USING THE RAMBOX CARGO SYSTEM, A TORSION ROD POPPED OUT AND NEARLY HIT ME IN THE FACE WITH A LOT OF FORCE. THE TORSION ROD IS ONE OF TWO USED TO KEEP THE CARGO DOOR OPEN ON THE RAMBOX. A METAL TAB THAT WAS KEEPING TENSION ON THE TORSION ROD FAILED SENDING THE ROD TOWARDS MY FACE.

DEF SYSTEM . REPLACED LAST YEAR UNDER WARRANTY AND NOW IT'S HAPPENKNG AGAIN AND I CAN NOT DRIVE MY VEHICLE . THEY WON'T COVER CAUSE WARRANTY DONE BUT HIS IS A CONTINUED ISSUE RHT SHOULD BE COVERED . MANY OTHERS WITH RAMS HAVE HAD SAME ISSUES

FCA HAS ISSUED RAM RECALL V06. THEN THEY TELL US THAT THERE IS NOT A FIX TO THE RECALL. SO WHAT GOOD DOES IT DO TO ISSUE A RECALL IF THE ISSUE CAN'T BE FIXED. SOMEONE NEEDS TO PRESSURE FCA TO ISSUE THE FIX. I TALKED TO THREE RAM DEALERS AND THEY ALL SAY THAT YES, THERE IS A RECALL V06 BUT THEY DO NOT HAVE A FIX FOR IT YET AND THEY CAN ONLY WAIT FOR FCA TO ISSUE A FIX TO THEM. SERIOUSLY...IT DOES NO GOOD TO ISSUE A RECALL IF THE VEHICLE CAN'T BE RECALLED AND FIXED.

I NOTICED THE DOORS WERE NOT UNLOCKING ON THE FIRST TRY OR AT ALL WITH THE KEY FOB. I TRIED 3 DIFFERENT KEY FOBS AND THE RESULTS WERE THE SAME. SOMETIMES ONLY THE DRIVER SIDE OPENED AND SOMETIMES NOT AT ALL. THE SAME WENT FOR LOCKING THE DOORS. THEY WOULD MAKE A SOUND TO LICK BUT THEY WOULD NOT ACTIVATE THE LOCKING MECHANISM. I WOULD HAVE TO USE THE KEY TO MANUALLY UNLOCK THE DRIVER DOOR AND THEN TRY TO RAPIDLY TAP THE UNLOCK BUTTON INSIDE THE DOOR. IT WOULD WORK SOMETIMES. OTHER TIMES I WOULD MANUALLY PULL ON THE STEM TO OPEN THE PASSENGER DOORS BUT IF YOU TRIED TO UNLOCK THEM UNSUNG THE ELECTRONICS FIRST, THEY WOULD BE STUCK IN THIS HALF WAY POSITION AND WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO BE PULLED UP TO UNLOCK THE PASSENGER DOOR. WHEN THE DOORS COULD NOT BE LOCKED USING THE ELECTRONIC LOCKS THEN THE DOOR STEM WOULD HAVE TO BE PUSHED DOWN ON ALL DOORS. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT UNLOCKING WITH A KEY AFTER TRIGGERED THE ALARM AND IT WOULD NOT STOP UNTIL AN UNLOCK SIGNAL WAS SENSED. THIS TOOK PUSHING THE FOB ENDLESS TIMES. SOMETIMES WITHOUT SUCCESS. THE REAL DANGER OF THIS PRESENTED ITSELF WHEN WE STOPPED DRIVING AND HAD TO RAPIDLY EXIT THE VEHICLE DUE TO EMERGENCY. THE DOORS WOULD NOT UNLOCK. THE DOOR HANDLES WOULD NOT WORK ON THE PASSENGER DOORS TRAPPING MY 3 KIDS IN THE BACK SEATS. I COULD NOT MANUALLY PULL ON THE STEM HARD ENOUGH TO OPEN THE DOORS. FYI, THE MANUAL CHILD LOCKS WERE OFF. THIS INCIDENT SCARED ME THINKING IF THERE WAS A FIRE OR ROLL OVER AND WE COULDN'T GET OUT MANUALLY OR ELECT

ON DECEMBER 21ST, 2018 I TOOK MY TRUCK TO A CAR WASH. FOLLOWING THE INITIAL CLEANING THE ATTENDANT PLACED THE TRUCK IN NEUTRAL, EXITED THE TRUCK, ENGAGED THE TRACK MECHANISM AND WALKED BACK TO THE NEXT TRUCK IN LINE. I WAS IN THE GLASSED IN AREA WATCHING. WITHOUT WARNING THE TRUCK WENT TO FULL THROTTLE RACING THROUGH THE CAR WASH TUNNEL AND HITTING A TOYOTA VAN WAITING TO BE MOVED TO THE NEXT CLEANING POINT. I WATCHED AS THE ATTENDANT TRIED TO RACE DOWN THE TUNNEL AFTER THE TRUCK. JUST AS THE TRUCK STRUCK THE VAN HE ENTERED AND PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK. THE ENGINE SLOWED FROM FULL THROTTLE TO WHAT APPEARED TO BE NORMAL. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER. THEY HAD A THIRD PARTY RUN A DIAGNOSTIC PROGRAM ON MY TRUCK. THEY SENT THE INFORMATION TO CHRYSLER ENGINEERS. I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL TELLING ME CHRYSLER WAS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE INCIDENT. I HAVE WRITTEN THEM AGAIN TELLING THEM I THOUGHT THEIR INVESTIGATION WAS INCOMPLETE SINCE THEY SPOKE TO NO ONE ON STAFF AT THE CAR WASH OR REVIEW THE VIDEO OF THE EVENT. THEY IMPLIED THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY AFTER MARKET MATS. SINCE I WAS PRESENT AND OBSERVED THE INCIDENT, I AM NOT SATISFIED WITH THAT EXPLANATION AND HAVE ASKED THEM TO STATE TO ME IN WRITING MY TRUCK IS SAFE TO DRIVE. I DO NOT ANTICIPATE THAT HAPPENING AS I BELIEVE THEY ARE PLAYING A CLASSIC GAME OF CYA. THERE IS A VIDEO OF THE EVENT AS IT HAPPENED. *TR *DT *DT*JB

TAILGATE OPENS OCCASIONALLY WHEN DRIVING. I THINK RAMS 2015-2017 WERE RECALLED FOR SAME ISSUE. HOWEVER IT IS EFFECTING ME AS WELL THE RECALL WAS U74. HAS HAPPENED TO ME AT LEAST 8-10 TIMES OVER PAST COUPLE YEARS. YESTERDAY I HAD CARGO THAT NEARLY FELL OUT. I HAVE A TAILGATE ASSIST AND A COVER SO I CANT SEE WHEN IT DROPS.

WHEN MAKING TURN, THE STEERING MAKES A NOISE AND THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATES.

ON 9-4-18 TOOK MY RAM 2500 IN TO THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP IN LOWELL, MICHIGAN FOR THE RECALL R46/NHTSA 15V-541. THEY INDICATED THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO DO THE RECALL AND WOULD CALL WHEN THEY WERE AVAILABLE. I CHECKED WITH THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN ON 10-4-18 AND THEY SAID PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND THEY DID NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WOULD BE AVAILABLE.

INSIDE DOME LIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND FLICKER. THEY HAVE BEEN REPLACED ONCE BUT THE SAME PROBLEM REMAINS. HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY 2012 RAM 1500 AND HAD THEM REPLACED ONCE AND THE PROBLEM REMAINED.

I WAS IN A FRONT END COLLISION CAUSING $20,000 DOLLARS IN DAMAGE AND THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO GO OFF. THE FRONT END WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED YET NO AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT.

I PRETTY MUCH PARKED IT FOR 9 MONTHS OFF AND ON IT'D GO 50 MILES, THEN 28 MILES , THEN 1,500 MILES, NOW I HAVE 72,300 MILES ON IT WITH IT THROWING CODES AND DRIVING ME AND MY MECHANICS CRAZY WHEREAS I'VE ALREADY SPENT NOW >GREATER THAN $1,500 SO FAR PLAYING CAT/MOUSE RE-SETTING CODES OVER AND OVER DUE TO THE MALFUNCTIONING ECU-PCM COMPUTER.

IT HAS A DEALER STICKER UNDER THE HOOD IN FADING PERMANENT SHARPIE MARKER INDICATING NUMBERS THAT THE ECU-PCM COMPUTER HAS ALREADY BEEN REPLACED WITH A SUBSTITUTE ONE FOR WHATEVER REASON. I AM TAKING MY TRUCK IN TO LITHIA SANTA FE, NEW MEXICO ON OCTOBER 30 2018 IN 10 DAYS RE:2 OUTSTANDING RECALLS.

IT HAS BEEN AVERAGING AVERAG

I HAVE BEEN RECEIVING A FAULT CODE ON MY TRUCK FOR "ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL" I TAKE IT TO AN AUTO PARTS STORE AND DEALERSHIP TO ONLY BE TOLD NO CODES ARE PRESENT, EVEN WHEN THEY SEE THE LIGHT ON THE DASH. SINCE HAVING THE CODE POP UP MY FUEL CONSUMPTION HAS INCREASED DRASTICALLY. MY AVG MPG WENT FROM 14.6MPG TO 10.2MPG, WITH THE SAME DRIVING CONDITIONS AND SAME ROUTE THAT I HAVE DRIVEN THE LAST 4 YEARS. I HAVE HAD BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND AUTO PARTS STORE CLEAR THE CODES THAT ARE PRESENT, THE LIGHT GOES OUT. BUT WILL RETURN WITHIN MINUTES OF DRIVING. BUT YET NO FAULT CODES FOR IT SPECIFICALLY. I HAVE SEARCHED THE NET FOR THIS ISSUE AND HAVE FOUND SEVERAL ARTICLES ON MULTIPLE DODGE, RAM AND CRYSTLER VEHICLES DOING THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THE DEALERSHIP TELLING THEM THE SAME THING. FOR ME TO BE CONSUMING A LARGER AMOUNT OF FUEL WITH DRIVING THE SAME ROUTE AND CONDITIONS THIS HAS TO BE DOING SOMETHING DRASTIC AND DAMAGING TO THE EMISSION AND ENGINE.

VEHICLE HAS AN ACCELERATOR LAG WHEN PUSHING DOWN FAST ON THE THROTTLE. IN CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE YOU NEED THE VEHICLE TO RESPOND QUICKLY IN ORDER TO AVOID ANOTHER VEHICLE THE ACCELERATOR LAGS FOR 1 TO 3 SECONDS BEFORE RESPONDING. THIS OCCURRED WHILE IN VERY SLOW MOTION CROSSING A CITY STREET. WAS TURNING ACROSS TRACFIC WHERE VEHICLES WERE COMING OVER A HILL.

T79 BRAKE TRANSMISSION SHIFT INTERLOCK. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT A FIX FOR THIS LOCKING PIN HAS NOT BEEN CREATED. SO THIS WILL CAUSE IT TO POSSIBLY SHIFT OUT OF PARK WITH OUT WARNING. SO THE PART HAS NOT BROKEN YET WITH 91K PLUS ON IT. WHICH IS NOT GOOD FOR SURE BECAUSE IT COULD BREAK AT ANY GIVEN TIME AND I PULL A LOT OF TRAILERS. ALSO TRYING TO SELL MY TRUCK HAVE LOST SEVERAL SELLS DUE TO IT. PLUS EVEN TRIED TO SELL AND CAN NOT TRADE IT IN EVEN. SO CANT GET OUT FROM UNDER THE TRUCK.

DATE 2/18/2018 AND AT MILEAGE 68,000 POWER STEERING PUMP AND THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE TO BOOSTER FAILED. THE FAILURE RESULTED IN LACK OF STEERING AND BRAKES AT HIGHWAY SPEED DRIVING TO WORK.

TRUCK MADE LOUD POPPING NOISE WHEN TURNING TO EITHER SIDE AND WHEN ENCOUNTERING BUMPS. STEERING TRACK BAR AND MOUNTING BOLTS WERE BROKEN AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

THE TRUCK IS A CNG MODEL AND THE CNG REGULATOR HAS FAILED. THE TRUCK WILL NOT RUN ON CNG WITHOUT REPLACING THE $1800 PART. THE REGULATOR EMITS THE NATURAL GAS INTO OPEN AIR THAT CAN BE SMELLED IN THE CAB.
