NHTSA Complaint #11288065 — 2012 DODGE RAM 2500

ON NOV 23 2019, WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY TRUCK IT SUDDENLY DIED. I PULLED OVER AND STARTED IT AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES THAT DAY ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY. SINCE THEN IT HAS WORKED INTERMITTENTLY WITH THE ISSUE HAPPENING WHILE IN MOTION AND ALSO WHILE STATIONARY. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT I'M NOT ALONE WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE READ SEVERAL FORUMS WITH A LOT OF OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE IGNITION MODULE, WIN. CLEARLY THIS ISN'T A COUPLE ISOLATED INCIDENTS AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY RAM. I WOULD FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT A TOTAL LOSS OF POWER DUE TO A FAULTY WIN THAT HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED AS AN ISSUE AND MODIFIED IN NEWER VEHICLES WOULDN'T BE A SAFETY RECALL. FROM WHAT I GATHER THIS PARTICULAR WIN IS ABLE TO GET DIRTY ON THE CIRCUIT BOARD THUS CAUSING A FAILURE IN THE CONNECTION AND RAM KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM.
