NHTSA Complaint #11232624 — 2019 RAM PROMASTER

THE DESIGN IN THE CAB AND PLACEMENT OF THE CUP HOLDERS CREATE A SAFETY HAZARD. THE CUP HOLDERS ARE RIGHT NEAR THE FLOOR CAUSING THE DRIVER TO REMOVE THEIR EYES FROM THE ROAD TO GET THEIR CUP, AND EVEN A SPLIT SECOND WITH YOUR EYES OFF THE ROAD COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THEY NEED TO RAISE THE CUP HOLDERS ON THE DASHBOARD AREA AND FRONT OF THE VEHICLE HIGHER FOR SAFETY. REACHING DOWN IS EQUALLY AS DANGEROUS AS TEXTING AND DRIVING AT THE SAME TIME. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE REACHES DOWN FOR THEIR CUP AND HAS AN ACCIDENT WITH THE POOR DESIGN AND PLACEMENT OF THE CUP HOLDERS. NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET BECAUSE I RECOGNIZE THE DANGER OF THE DESIGN AND PLACEMENT AND WILL NOT USE THAT VEHICLE FEATURE UNTIL THEY FIND A WAY TO CORRECT IT. I TOOK DELIVERY OF THE VEHICLE LAST WEEK, I ORDERED IT IN JANUARY AND THEY BUILT IT. 07/12/2019 I NOTICED THE ISSUE WHEN I PICKED THE VEHICLE UP FROM THE DEALER.
