Consumer Description

AFTER HAVING RECALL, V08 DONE ON MY 2015 RAM 1500 ECODIESEL TRUCK. I HAVE AN EXTREME LAG WHEN TAKING OFF. IT IS SO BAD IT COULD BE DANGEROUS WHEN MERGING INTO TRAFFIC FROM A COMPLETE STOP. IT IS A DEAD PEDAL WITH NO ACCELERATION WHEN YOU PUSH DOWN ON PEDAL. THIS OCCURS WHEN EVER I ACCELERATE FROM A STOP. I DID NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE BEFORE THE V08 UPDATE. I HAVE HEARD THIS IS A VERY WIDE PROBLEM AMONG RAM 1500'S THAT HAVE HAD V08 COMPLETED. IS THERE A FIX OR UPDATE TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE?
