NHTSA Complaint #11320095 — 2015 RAM 1500

PER THE ECODIESEL SETTLEMENT I HAD THE UPGRADES DONE ON MY TRUCK. AFTER THE UPGRADE THERE WAS NOTICEABLE LOSS OF POWER AND THROTTLE RESPONSE. THERE WERE MANY OCCASIONS WHERE THE TRUCK WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE DUE TO LOSS OF POWER WHEN MERGING INTO TRAFFIC FROM A STOP OR WHEN ACCELERATING TO MERGE ONTO A HIGHWAY. I HAD TO TRADE IN THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE FACT THAT A SAFE VEHICLE IS REQUIRED FOR MY JOB. I MENTIONED TO MY LOCAL RAM DEALER WHERE I HAD THE AEM UPGRADE DONE AND THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT, THAT MANY RAM OWNERS WERE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE POWER LOSS AND THROTTLE RESPONSE. EVEN THOUGH I TRADED IN THE TRUCK, THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. HAD THIS BEEN HOW THE VEHICLE PERFORMED FROM DAY, I NEVER WOULD'VE PURCHASED IT. I FEEL THAT FCA WAS NEVER HONEST AND UPFRONT WITH VEHICLE OWNERS OF THE ECODIESEL ENGINES.
