Consumer Description

2005 DODGE RAM 1500 STALLS WHEN MAKING TURNS. THIS STARTED WHEN THE TRUCK HAD ABOUT 12K MILES AND SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. I HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. OF COURSE NOW IT HAS 43K AND IS OUT OF WARRANTY SO I CANNOT AFFORD TO TAKE FOR $100 DIAGNOSTIC EVERYTIME TRUCK STALLS, JUST TO BE TOLD NOTHING IS WRONG. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE STEERING AND BRAKES ARE ALMOST NON EXISTENT WHEN THIS HAPPENS AND IT USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN MAKING A TURN. I JUST HOPE THAT IT DOESN'T HAPPEN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT THIS IS NOT JUST MY TRUCK AND OTHERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. WHY DOES DODGE NOT STEP UP AND CORRECT THE PROBLEM? DOES IT TAKE A DEATH BEFORE THEY DO? *TR
