NHTSA Complaint #11539999 — 2019 RAM 1500

Vehicle would not shift out of first gear. Turned off vehicle and turned back on, still would not shift out of first gear. Our safety was at risk because we could not drive the minimum speed limit. We have not been able to get into a mechanic yet, we pulled it over at a shop nearby and they are booked out so we are waiting inspection and without our vehicle, but wanted to report the issue as we have seen online that many people have had the exact same issue and they also report that it is hard to replicate, that it is random when this issue occurs. Police witnessed our inability to drive fast. Based off of how many people I have seen have complained about this issue online I would hope a recall would be made as this is clearly a malfunction of this vehicle and a safety issue. The vehicle is undriveable and we do regular maintenance checks for this vehicle. This issue just came out of the blue. There was a light that came on at the time of the issue that said "service trailer break" and "service electrical stability control", we have not tried to turn it on since we had to leave it at the shop.
