On Feb. 20, 2023 my 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 was worked to have a repair for the AirBag Recall. I spoke with someone at JT's Dodge to set up the appointment PRIOR to 2-20-23 and was NEVER verbally informed that there was a posed risk of my dash being cracked and so I set up the appointment. I tried to update my information BUT the young lady on the other end REFUSED to update it stating I've been there before in the past. MY TWO listed phone numbers are correct (over 10 years) and my address reflected was not updated to my new home address. On the day of Feb. 20, 2023 I sent my son-in-law to take my truck to have the recalled air bag repaired, which he did. He reports being told in a non urgent, very vague manner that there's a possibility of the dash cracking and...

I was driving about 45-50 mph and pushed on my breaks. When i pushed on my breaks, i had no power steering and was unable to accelerate. No warning lights. I pulled over and restarted the vehicle and it was fine. Was just purchased used and driving home from dealer.

18V160000 recall..Also, the entire bottom of frame is rusted out..its parked inside of garage.no repair shop can fix it..they stated due to rusted frame belt on gas tank is off and gas tank will fall..they told me to junk my vehicle. This is my transportation to work. I've had it towed to shops every one said dodge makes rusted vehicles and dont care...due to rust now right front tire turnt in..I dont know if that's bearings or tirerod.i just want my vehicle to run..can you please help please..

I was driving on a highway when all of a sudden I heard what I thought to be a blow out (tire) ,as I pulled over on shoulder with difficulty I looked in mirror and saw a part has fallen off, later retrieved with tow truck driver, part being a driveshaft. Rear end had seized as I maneuvered my veh. As far on shoulder as possible, I feel fortunate for outcome of incident. I had gotten a tow to my resident now not sure what my next step is to do, any advise would be helpful. Thank you

CYLINDER #4 PUSH ROD IS BENT AND MESSED UP CAM AND VALVES AS A RESULT NEW MOTOR IS NEEDED. THIS VEHICLE WAS RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM AND WAS NEVER BROUGHT IN. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE LESS THAN TWO YEARS AGO WITH NO RECOLLECTION OF THIS AND NOW I'M OUT A TRUCK WITH NO MOTOR DUE TO THIS.

SUNROOF EXPLODE TODAY 6/12/2019 WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY.

I RECENTLY HAD A INVESTIGATOR INSPECT MY VEHICLE THAT BROKE THE RIGHT REAR AXLE. CHRYSLER GOT BACK TO ME AND CLAIMED THE BREAK WAS NOT FROM THERE RECALL. CHRYSLER AVOIDED MY WHOLE COMPLAINT OF DEFECTIVE MATERIAL. I WAS NOT RELYING ON RECALLS BUT THE MATERIAL IS NOT RIGHT. I HAD A COUPLE OF PROFESSIONAL WELDERS LOOK AT THE AXLE AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE BREAK WAS ON A WELD, WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE STRONGEST POINT AND THAT THE MATERIAL LOOKS POROUS. I HAVE ALREADY FILED A CLAIM ON THIS MATTER, WHICH TOTALED MY TRUCK DUE TO THE AXLE BREAKING. SEE ALSO 11031993

WHILE DRIVING MY TRUCK STRAIGHT DOWN REMEMBRANCE ROAD (SECONDARY HIGHWAY) IT STALLED, LOOSING POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. I WAS TRAVELING AT A SPEED OF APPROX 45 MPH WITH NO TURNS, COASTED TO THE SHOULDER PUT IN PARK AND RESTARTED LUCKILY THERE WAS NO OTHER TRAFFIC. TRUCK RESTARTED AND I PROCEEDED HOME. I PARKED THE TRUCK ALL SEEMED FINE. WENT OUT THE NEXT DAY AND TRUCK WOULD NOT CRANK. BATTERY LOAD CHECKED OK, IF I JUMP THE STARTER RELAY @ PIN 30 TO 87 TRUCK WILL CRANK. WHEN KEY IS TURNED ON THE DASH LIGHTS COME ON ALONG WITH RADIO, HEADLIGHTS, AND BLOWER FOR HEAT/AIR. THIS TRUCK ONLY HAS 56,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF BY ME. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THE GAS GAUGE DID NOT MOVE WHEN IGNITION KEY WAS TURNED ON EVEN THOUGH IT HAD HALF A TANK, IT WORKED FINE WHEN...

AN ELECTRICAL FIRE STARTED UNDER HOOD OF VEHICLE. NO SIGNS OF ANYTHING BEING WRONG BEFORE THE FIRE AND VEHICLE HAD BEEN PARKED AND SITTING IN DRIVEWAY FOR AT LEAST 24 HOURS BEFORE FIRE WAS SEEN AND REPORTED TO POLICE AND FIRE DEPT. NOBODY WAS HOME WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

A RECALL WAS POSTED FOR 2006 AND NEWER DODGE RAM FOR FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS. MY 2005 HAD BOTH FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS FAIL AT LESS THAN 90,000 MILES. SAME MANUFACTURE OF WHEEL BEARINGS. SECONDLY, A RECALL WAS ALSO GIVEN FOR A FAILED ELECTRICAL SWITCH PERTAINING TO IGNITION SWITCH AND HEATER BLOWER MOTOR. MINE ALSO FAILED IN A CLOUD OF SMOKE AND SMELL OF BURNING ELECTRICAL COMPONENT. I HAVE BOTH FAILED COMPONENTS, CURRENTLY AND WOULD LIKE TO BE INCLUDED IN THESE RECALLS.

THE SPARE TIRE HOIST CAN BECOME INOPERABLE, NOT ALLOWING YOU TO RAISE NOR LOWER THE SPARE TIRE. HOWEVER, OVER TIME, THE CABLE BEGINS TO SLOWLY LOWER THE SPARE TO WHICH THE SPARE BEGINS TO ROCK BACK AND FORTH. EVENTUALLY, THE CABLE GIVES WAY AND BREAKS, ALLOWING THE TIRE TO FALL OFF. IN MY CASE, I HAD NEVER BEEN ABLE TO RAISE OR LOWER MY SPARE TIRE, NOR HAD THE DODGE DEALERSHIP OR ANY ALTERNATE PLACES THAT REPLACE TIRES. IT WAS ALMOST 9 YEARS WHEN I NOTICED THAT THE SPARE TIRE HAD LOWERED AND WAS ROCKING BACK AND FORTH, HOWEVER, THE HOIST WAS STILL INOPERABLE, AND THE TIRE HAD NOT LOWERED ENOUGH TO ACCESS THE MOUNTING BOLTS FOR THE HOIST NOR TO CUT THE CABLE. SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 75 MPH WHEN I NOTICED ALL THE CARS BEHIND ME SWERVING EVERY WHICH DIRECTION.....AND THEN I...

THE TRUCK STALLS WHEN SLOWING FOR A STOP OR IDLING AROUND A CORNER. THAT IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE STEERING AND BRAKES ARE LOCKED UP AT THAT POINT. WHETHER IT'S IDLING IN A TRAFFIC JAM, COMING TO A STOP, OR IDLING AROUND THE CORNER, YOU WILL SUDDENLY HAVE NO POWER BUT EVERYTHING ELSE IS ON. NOT THE ENGINE AND IT WAS SO SMOOTH THAT YOU DON'T NOTICE UNTIL YOU CAN'T BRAKE OR STEER. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WITH THIS YEAR MAKE AND MODEL THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I UNDERSTAND THERE WAS AN INVESTIGATION BUT IT WAS CLOSED WITHOUT RESOLUTION. CASE NUMBER EA05018. THIS IS A GROWING PROBLEM AND WE THE PEOPLE ARE SPENDING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO REPLACE PARTS THAT ARE JUST PART OF A TROUBLE SHOOTING ISSUE AND MOST OF US STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM. AND IT'S THE SAME FOR ALL OF US. PLEASE RELOOK...

I WAS TOLD POSSIBLY THAT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLTS ON MY 2005 DODGE RAM 1500 4.7 COLD BE ON A RECALL LIST

I CALLED MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER ABOUT THE P77/NHTSA 14V-796 RECALL NOTICE THAT I RECEIVED IN THE MAIL TO DETERMINE IF THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO ASSIST ME. WHEN I TALKED WITH AN EMPLOYEE THERE THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART IN FOR THE POSSIBLE DEFECT AND SHE DID NOT FOLLOW UP WITH SETTING UP AN APPOINTMENT TO INSPECT MY VEHICLE TO DETERMINE IF I NEEDED THE APPROPRIATE WORK DONE. SHE DID TELL ME THAT THE DEALERSHIP WOULD CONTACT ME WHEN THE PART ARRIVED. IT IS GOING ON 2 MONTHS NOW AND I RECEIVED NO CALL BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP. I RECENTLY RECEIVED MY SECOND NOTIFICATION IN THE MAIL REGARDING THE SAFETY RECALL REGARDING SPECIFIC DODGE RAMS.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE WITH MY FAMILY ENROUTE TO SOUTH CAROLINA WHEN I STARTED HEARING A NOISE AND FELT A LITTLE VIBRATION ON THE PEDAL AT FIRST I THOUGHT I MAY HAVE RAN OVER SOMETHING. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I JUST HEARD A BOOM AND THE TRUCK JUST STARTED FISH TAILIN. LUCKILY THERE WERENT ANY VEHICLES AROUND ME AT THE TIME, I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE SHOULDER. WHEN I LOOKED UNDER THE VEHICLE THE DRIVE SHAFT HAD COME COMPLETELY OUT AND THERE WAS SMOKE AND OIL LEAKING. WHEN WE GOT THE TRUCK TO THE SHOP AND THEY LOOKED IT OVER THE PINION HAD COME COMPLETELY A LOOSE THE SEAL WAS SHOT AND CHUNKS OF THE GEARS INSIDE WAS MANGLED, THE TRANSFER CASE WAS CRACKED FROM THE IMPACT OF WHEN THE DRIVE SHAFT CAME APART. I ALSO LEARNED THAT THE TRUCK HAD A...

MY 2005 DODGE RAM SRT-10 VIPER TRUCK ENGINE STALLS/SHUTS DOWN WITHOUT WARNING, NO CODES, NO ERRORLIGHTS WHILE DRIVING...I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY TRUCK STALLING OUT WHEN PARKING OR GOING THROUGH SLOW TURNS. IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION'WHILE AN EMERGENCY VEHICLE WAS APPROACHING, IT DIED AND I SLOWLY DRIFTED OVER TO AN ADJACENT CURVE.. THE MOST RECENT WAS ON 11/06/15, BUT IT HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 5 TIMES OVER THE PAST 5 MONTHS. ALL LIGHTS AND THE RADIO REMAIN ON AND IT STARTS RIGHT BACK UP, HOWEVER MY STEERING AND BRAKES LOCK UP WHICH IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED MY RPMS DROP DRAMATICALLY AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THE TRUCK WANTS TO STALL. STARTED SURGING AND STALLING SO IN IT WENT IN AGAIN, THIS TIME THEY REPLACED THE IAC MODULE ...AND THEN THEY THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE THE FUEL PUMP'SO THEY TESTED THE FUEL...

PURCHASED THE TRUCK NEW IN 2005. WIFE WAS DRIVING TO STORE WHEN ENGINE SHUT OFF. SHE TURN AROUND AND DROVE 1.5 MILE BACK TO HOUSE AND PARKED TRUCK. TRUCK HAD PLENTY OIL, BUT WAS LEAKING OIL FROM PASSENGER SIDE VALVE COVER HAD A SMALL HOLE. PULLED COVERS, BOTH HEADS AND FOUND HEAD CAST HAD BROKE OFF ON PASSENGER SIDE. THIS CAUSED HOLE IN VALVE COVER. BOTTOM OF BOTH HEAD CASTING HAD DAMAGE TO VALVE SEAL WHICH SHOULD BE PRESSED INTO PLACE. THREE OF THE SEAL POP OUT ABOUT 1/4 INCH. AND ONE OF THE SEAL ON DRIVER SIDE HEAD CASTING CRACKED CYLINDER HEAD. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. I NEVER SEEN THIS TYPE OF DAMAGE TO HEADERS. I THINK THE CASTING IF FLAWED. BEFORE TAKING THE VALVE COVERS OF, I THOUGHT IF I GET ANOTHER VALVE COVER MIGHT BE OK. SO I SEARCHED FOR A VALVE COVER. I CALLED TWO DODGE...

2005 DODGE RAM 1500. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO UNSATISFACTORY CUSTOMER SERVICE AT DEALERSHIP. *SMD THE CONSUMER WAS UNSUCCESSFUL AT GETTING AN APPOINTMENT, TO GET THE RECALL RECTIFIED. HE WAS TOLD TO CALL BACK IN THREE TO FOUR MONTHS TO SEE IF THE PART WAS AVAILABLE. ULTIMATELY, HE MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT ANOTHER DEALERSHIP, WHICH WAS FURTHER AWAY. THE CONSUMER DID NOT REFERENCE A SPECIFIC RECALL. *JB

HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH TIRES. SEPARATING ON 3 TIRES OUT OF SET OF 4. THE NEXT 4 TIRES DEVELOPED BUBBLES AND HAD TO BE REPLACED AS WELL. TRUCK BOUNCES DOWN THE ROAD. SPEED DOESNT SEEM TO BE A FACTOR BUT MORE OBVIOUS AT HIGHER SPEEDS. TRUCK HAS STALLED ON ME NUMEROUS TIMES CROSSING RAILROAD TRACKS WHICH ARE VERY CLOSE TO MY HOUSE. I FINALLY GOT THE NUT RECALL AFTER NUMEROUS CALLS TO DEALER. I WAS TOLD NO PARTS. FINALLY IT WAS DONE 2 WEEKS AGO. WHILE THERE I INQUIRED ABOUT THE AIRBAG RECALL. I WAS TOLD THEY WERENT AWARE OF IT, THAN THEY SAID WE HAVE TO ORDER PARTS . I WAS HOPING THE NUT RECALL WOULD SOLVE THE BOUNCE ISSUE IT HAS NOT. I AM AFRAID YET ANOTHER SET OF TIRES WILL BE YET A WASTE OF MORE MONEY I DONT HAVE, AND STILL SCARED OF WHAT MAY...

DRIVERS SIDE REAR DOOR LOCK IS STUCK IN THE LOCKED POSITION AND WILL NOT OPEN. SINCE IT'S THE REAR DOOR THERE IS NO KEY HOLE TO UNLOCK THE DOOR. DOOR WILL NOT OPEN WITH REMOTE DOOR OPENER EITHER.

VEHICLE SHUT OFF UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO A STOP.

RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR REAR AXLE PINION NUT IN JAN 2015. DODGE DEALERSHIPS DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS WITHIN 100 MILE RADIUS. RECEIVED ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE JULY 2015 STILL NO PARTS AVAILABLE. ARE THEY WAITING FOR SEVERE INCIDENTS TO OCCUR?

IN MARCH 2015 I RECEIVED A LETTER STATING THAT MY TRUCK HAD A RECALL INVOLVING THE REAR AXLE. AS SOON AS I RECEIVED THIS NOTICE, I STOPPED DRIVING MY TRUCK. MY TRUCK IS MY FAMILY'S ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. SINCE I DON'T HAVE ANOTHER VEHICLE, I HAVE BEEN FORCED TO BORROW MY PARENTS AND SIBLINGS VEHICLES. I EVEN HAVE BEEN FORCED TO TAKE THE BUS. I FEEL THAT THIS RECALL SHOULD HAVE BEEN RESOLVED ALREADY. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO HELP ME WITH THIS SITUATION? I DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING MY FAMILY OR MYSELF AROUND IN THIS VEHICLE. THANK YOU.

WHEELS MAKE BANGING NOISE STEERING GOD

I HAVE A RECALL AND NOW THE REAR OF TRUCK SOUNDS NOCKING OR CATCHING UP. I HAVE NUMEROUS TIME'S CALLED ALL DEALERS IN MY AREA AND CHRYSLER GROUP LLC IN AUBURN HILLS MI 48321.STILL WITH NO RESULTS, ALL ARE SAYING THEIR NO PARTS ANYWARE, I HAVE THIS RECALL AT LEAST SIX MONTHS AND STILL NO PARTS.

I WAS AT THE STOP SIGN ON THE BRAGA BRIDGE IN MA. I STARTED TO ENTER TRAFFIC WHEN THERE WAS A LOUD BANG AND THEN A BUNCH OF BANGING, I INSTANTLY STOPPED ON THE BRIDGE JUST PAST THE STOP SIGN. I PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE, I JUMPED OUT OF THE TRUCK BUT IT BEGAN TO ROLL BACK. I HAD MY WIFE HOLD THE BREAK WHILE I CHECKED. THE TRUCK WOULD ROLL BACKWARDS BUT NOT FORWARDS. THE DRIVE SHAFT WAS LYING ON THE GROUND. WE HAD TO WAIT FOR A TOW TRUCK TO MOVE THE TRUCK. A FLAT BED SHOWED UP AND COULD NOT GET THE TRUCK TO ROLL FORWARD. HE THEN CONTINUED TO UPSET ME BY DRAGGING THE TRUCK ONTO THE FLAT BED AS IT WAS THE ONLY WAY TO MOVE IT. *TR

IT FELT LIKE THE WHEELS LOCKED DOWN, AND THE REAR END BEGAN TO FISHTAIL, CAUSING UNCONTROLLABLE SWERVING, RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE VEERING OFF OF THE ROAD AND ROLLING MULTIPLE TIMES. DRIVER WAS MY SON. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER WAS MADE AWARE THAT THERE WAS SMOKE EMITTED FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

THE VOLUME OF AIR COMING FROM MY DEFROSTER IS INADEQUATE TO KEEP THE WINDSHIELD CLEAR FROM FOG AND FROST. I HAVE READ SEVERAL ON LINE ARTICLES ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND IT SEEMS QUITE A FEW PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. I LIVE IN CALIFORNIA AND COULD ONLY IMAGINE HOW SOMEONE LIVING IN A COLDER CLIMATE IS DEALING WITH THIS PROBLEM. THIS DEFINITELY CAN CAUSE AN UNSAFE CONDITION BY HAMPERING YOUR VISION WHILE DRIVING. *TR

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE LSD REAR DIFFERENTIAL OF MY 2005 DODGE RAM 1500 COMPLETELY LOCKED UP AND THE DRIVE LINE SEPARATED FROM THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL. THE SHOP THAT FIXED IT SAID THAT A RETAINING CLIP MUST HAVE COME LOOSE AND DESTROYED THE ENTIRE REAR DIFFERENTIAL. GOOD THING I WAS ONLY GOING ABOUT 25 MPH IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD AND NOT 75MPH ON THE FREEWAY, OR THE OUTCOME COULD HAVE BEEN LIFE THREATENING. *TT UPDATED 5/29/2015 *JS

WHILE DRIVING IN CITY RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, I EXPERIENCED SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION (WIDE OPEN THROTTLE) AFTER TAKING MY FOOT OFF THE THROTTLE PEDAL TO SLOW DOWN FOR A TURN. THE THROTTLE REMAINED STUCK IN FULL ACCELERATION MODE UNTIL I CRASHED INTO A TRAFFIC LIGHT POLE.

I JUST BOUGHT A NEW 2005 DODGE MAGNUM 1500 RAM LONG BED FROM THE DEALER IN NOVEMBER 2005. AFTER THE SECOND DAY OF DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY I NOTICED THE TRUCK VIBRATED A LOT AT AROUND 65 MPH. I RETURNED THE TRUCK TO GET THE TIRES BALANCED AT THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT TIRES NEEDED NO BALANCING AND THE SHAKING WAS FIXED. THE NEXT DAY GOING TO WORK THE SHAKING STARTED AT AROUND 63 MPH AND I RETURNED TO THE DEALER AND TEST DROVE WITH MECHANIC AND THEY BALANCED THE TIRES. THIS TIME ONE TIRE WAS FOUND UNBALANCED AND WAS TOLD THAT THESE TRUCK SHAKE AT THOSE SPEEDS AND WHEN THERE IS LESS THAN 300 POUNDS ON THE BED. I MADE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT SO THAT THEY COULD DO MORE TESTS AND TEST DRIVE. SAME THING WAS SAID. THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL AND NOTHING COULD BE DONE AND THAT...

THE NEXT DAY, CONSUMER DROVE THE VEHICLE AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT THE SENSOR WAS IN THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT BELT. THE CONSUMER HAD INADVERTENTLY DROVE A SHEET METAL SCREW THROUGH THE WIRE RUNNING TO THE DRIVER'S SEAT. *SC *JB
