Consumer Description

While at a stop waiting to turn truck would not move. Saw a message on dashboard “ shift into park and select desired gear. This has happened more than once. Later that day I lost all power. Engine shutdown, no power steering or brakes. Message stated “ Place into park and restart engine “. Truck is hard to start.No accident either time. Dealer is an hour away. Afraid to drive it to have it checked. Ram blogs show I’m not the only one with this happening. Will someone get hurt? If I lived in a more populated area I would say yes. Someone will. A family with children would be hard to deal with.
