NHTSA Complaint #10223725 — 2005 DODGE RAM 1500

2005 DODGE RAM FREQUENTLY STALLS AT SLOWER SPEEDS AND RPM'S. THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING OFTEN AFTER LETTING OFF THE GAS PEDAL AT LOWER RPMS. IT HAS HAPPENED AT SPEEDS OF 20 MPH AND LOWER, WHILE TAKING TURNS, APPROACHING STOP SIGNS AND AT THE CREST OF HILLS WHEN I LET OFF THE GAS. VERY DANGEROUS AND RESULTED IN RUNNING OFF THE ROAD INTO A DITCH IN ONE CASE. THE DEALER WAS NOT HELPFUL ON BOTH OCCASIONS WHEN THEY KEPT THE TRUCK FOR REPAIR PURPOSES. IN BOTH CASES THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING SINCE THE COMPUTER DID NOT REGISTER A SPECIFIC FAILURE. I TOLD THEM THAT IT WAS RELATED TO THE LOW RPM'S AND THAT IT WAS NOT A "SENSOR" ISSUE. THEY REFUSED TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER AS THEY FELT THIS WOULD BE CHASING THE PROBLEM "BLIND". *TR
