Consumer Description

SINCE I FIRST BOUGHT THIS TRUCK IN 2005 ITS HAD A PRETTY SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH STALLING OUT WHEN COMING TO A STOP, AND EVEN WORSE, SOMETIMES MID TURN WHILE MOVING. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE SINCE LOSS OF CONTROL IS EMINENT IN THIS TYPE OF INCIDENT. ALONG WITH THIS STALLING OUT, THE TRUCK HAS A ROUGH IDLE/SURGING IDLE ISSUE WHEN AT A STOP. IVE TRIED ALL TYPES OF REPAIRS, AND SPENT ALOT OF MONEY TRYING TO FIX THIS ISSUE WITH NO AVAIL. I TOOK IT INTO DODGE AFTER I FIRST BOUGHT THE TRUCK AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. I TOOK IT IN AGAIN AND THEY CLEANED THE THROTTLE BODY. STILL SAME ISSUE. NOW IVE REPLACED, OUT OF MY OWN POCKET, THE EGR VALVE, THROTTLE BODY ITSELF, EVAP PURGE VALVE, AND HAVE TRIED A LIST OF OTHER REMEDIES. STILL NOT FIXED. AFTER A QUICK SEARCH OF MANY DIFFERENT DODGE RAM CLUB ONLINE FORUMS THIS IS A VERY VERY VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THESE TRUCKS, AND ALL OF US OWNERS ARE FED UP. DODGE WONT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS SERIOUS ISSUE, AND UNFORTUNATELY PEOPLE MAY DIE BECAUSE OF THIS. PLEASE HELP US! *TR
