NHTSA Complaint #11190544 — 2013 RAM 3500

MY TRUCK IS A LEMON. I'VE HAD OVER TEN RECALLS AND THE PROBLEMS JUST CONTINUE. NOW MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND THE DEALER TOLD ME MY TURBO ACTUATOR IS NOT COMMUNICATING WITH THE TURBO. THEY WANT TO REPLACE IT AT MY COST OF $3500. MY TRUCK ONLY HAS 80K MILES ON IT. I TOLD THEM THE TURBO AND EVERYTHING STILL WORKS FINE!!!! JUST THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. THEY SAID EVENTUALLY IT WILL GO BAD. THEY SAID I CAN STILL DRIVE IT BUT THAT AT ANY TIME IT COULD GO IN TO LIMP MODE WHERE IT SHUTS DOWN AND ONLY LETS YOU DRIVE 5MPH. THIS SOUNDS DANGEROUS! ESPECIALLY IF I'M PULLING A TRAILER. I ASKED HOW LONG BEFORE IT GOES BAD AND THEY SAY THEY HAVE NO IDEA!!! I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO REPLACE A PART THAT STILL WORKS! THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A FAULTY PART THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED. I'VE HAD 10 OR MORE RECALLS WITH THIS VEHICLE ALREADY. INCLUDING A ALTERNATOR THAT CAUGHT FIRE. I HAVE FOUR FRIENDS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE RECALL THE TURBO ACTUATOR!!!! I NEED YOUR HELP. THIS ISN'T RIGHT AND I HAVE NO ONE TO TURN TO. IT'S DANGEROUS AVDCI HAVE TO KEEP USING THIS TRUCK FOR IMPORTANT WORK. THANK YOU FUR LISTENING.
