NHTSA Complaint #11658386 — 2025 RAM 1500

This has occurred twice in the last 2-3 months. I was at a 2-way stop and after I stopped and started to pull into a cross-traffic opening, the transmission seemed to disengage momentarily (for approximately 1-2 seconds) leaving me unable to accelerate out of the way of oncoming traffic which causes the other drivers to rapidly close the distance between themselves and my vehicle before the transmission will unexpectedly re-engage causing a sudden rather violent jerk of the entire vehicle. The jerking was so violent and the other vehicle so close that I pulled over in one of the instances to verify that I hadn't been actually rear-ended. As I stated above, the problem has already occurred twice. No, the dealer has not yet evaluated the situation. I plan to take it into the dealer next week and mention the issue. No, the vehicle has not yet been inspected by the manufacturer or others listed. In neither case was there any warning lamps or messages. The "additional Details" below are for the most recent event.
