2011 DODGE RAM 1500 Electronic Stability Control Esc Problems

THE VEHICLE STOPS UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON A BUSY STREET AND HIGHWAY ALMOST GETTING INTO TWO ACCIDENTS WITH FAMILY MEMBERS IN MY VEHICLE

WHEN DRIVING FOR AN HOUR OR SO, ELECTRIC SYSTEM LIGHT GOES ON AND STAYS ON, LIKE RIGHT NOW. WHEN DRIVING ALSO FEELS LIKE TRUCK WILL DIE AND THEN PICKS UP AGAIN, THESE THINGS ARE WHEN TRUCK IS IN MOTION.

I HAVE A 2011 RAM 1500 QUAD CAB WITH THE 5.7 HEMI ENGINE. THE TIPM STARTED FAULTING AND NOT LETTING THE FUEL PUMP RUN AND START THE CAR. THEN IT STOPPED THE TRAILER/TOW LIGHTS CONNECTION IN THE REAR NOT WORKING WHILE I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF TOWING A TRAILER. THE ANTI-SLIP WAS ACTIVATED ALL THE TIME AND IT TURNED OFF THE VEHICLES RADIO AND BACK UP CAMERA.

TRUCK WONT START .. ALL OTHER CHRYSLER AND JEEP AND DODGES IN 2011 MODELS HAD A RELAY REPAIR RECALL FOR THE FUEL PUMP. THE 2011 RAM 1500 DIS NOT YET THEY ALL USE THE SAME TIPM

I WAS JUST INFORMED BY MY REPAIR SHOP THAT MY TRUCK REQUIRES A NEW TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE. THIS PART COSTS $1300. IT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR REGULATING POWER TO MANY ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS IN THE TRUCK INCLUDING THE FUEL PUMP. ACCORDING TO MANY ONLINE SOURCES CHRYSLER VEHICLES FROM CERTAIN YEARS, ESPECIALLY 2011, ARE KNOWN TO HAVE FAULTY TIPMS AND THAT THE PROBLEM CAN CAUSE PROBLEMS RANGING FROM ANNOYANCES TO LIFE THREATENING ACCIDENTS. MY SPECIFIC PROBLEM OCCURS BOTH WHEN I AM ATTEMPTING TO START IT AND WHEN I AM DRIVING IT. I AM UNABLE TO PURCHASE THE NECESSARY REPAIR DUE TO THE EXTREME COST OF THE PART. THE UNPREDICTABLE NATURE OF THIS PART MAKES THIS PROBLEM EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.

TRUCK WON'T START AFTER SITTING FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME 5-6 HOURS, THEN IT STARTS.POWER WINDOW & LOCKS, VISOR LIGHTS, TRACTION CONTROL, REAR BRAKE LIGHT, TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING LIGHT, ALL WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. AC OUTLET HAS NEVER WORKED, KEY PULLED OUT OF IGNITION WITH TRUCK STAYING RUNNING, KEY STUCK IN IGNITION WON'T RELEASE, BIG THING IS TRUCK SHUTTING DOWN WHILE DRIVING, NOW WERE AFRAID OF DRIVING IT. DEALER LOOKED AT NUMEROUS TIMES TO BLAME OUR STEREO IN IT. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING IT HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS, DON'T KNOW WHAT ITS GOING TO TAKE FOR A RECALL, SOMEONE GETTING KILLED? CHRYSLER HAS RECALLED IT IN THE DODGE DURANGO, JEEP CHEROKEE AND OTHER VEHICLES BUT NOT RAM 1500, COST 1000- 3000 FROM DEALER WHO IS THE ONLY ONE TO FIX ? IT THE TIPM MOTHER BOARD THAT CONTROLS EVERYTHING AND I'M NOT EVEN A MECHANIC PLEASE HELP THIS HAS BEEN ON...

STARTED FIRST ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I LOST POWER. I WAS GOING 70 MPH ON THE TRUCK AND THEN ON IT'S ON IT LOST POWER AND WENT DOWN TO 60 MPH. SINCE THEN I HAVE GOTTEN AN ELECTRONIC THROTTLE LIGHT MALFUNCTION THAT'S BLINKING ON MY DASH BOARD, ALSO THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT AND ALSO THE ENGINE LIGHT IS COMING ON. I HAVE ALSO RECENTLY REPLACED MY FUEL TANK, BECAUSE I WOULD HEAR THE FUEL TANK STILL WORKING WHEN MY ENGINE WAS OFF. I'VE READ ONLINE THAT MY FUEL INJECTORS AND/OR MY FUSE BOX MAY BE GOING BAD BECAUSE OF THIS.

TRUCK MAKES LOUD RUMBLING SOUNDS ON BOTTOM. THERE IS A MAJOR ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH THE TRUCK THAT DRAINS BATTERY RESULTING IN THE TRUCK NOT STARTING. STRANDED MANY PLACES BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE A 2011 RAM 1500 WITH 82,000 MILES ON IT. I GOT MY TRUCK TOWED TO DODGE BECAUSE IT WAS NOT STARTING. IT WOULD CRANK OVER BUT NEVER START AND THEN WOULD LOCK UP COMPLETELY LEAVING ME LOCKED OUT OF MY VEHICLE AND SOMETIMES MY KEY WOULDN'T EVEN COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. I TOLD THEM ALL OF THIS INFO AND THEY TOLD ME IT NEEDED TO BE FLASHED! I PAID $200 FOR THEM TO FLASH MY TRUCK AND SUPPOSIVELY "UPDATE" IT. A WEEK LATER, IT STARTED DOING IT AGAIN. IT WOULDN'T START OR UNLOCK! IT EVEN STALLED ON ME WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING ME TO LOSE ALL CONTROL! LUCKILY I GOT IT OFF THE ROAD SAFELY: EVEN WITH IT BEING LOCKED UP AND HAVING NO CONTROL!! NOT TO MENTION THAT I AM 7 MONTHS PREGNANT!!! THE NEXT MORNING I WAKE UP TO GO TO THE STORE, AND...

TAKATA RECALL THE TIPM WENT BAD IN MY TRUCK AT 85,000 MILES. TRUCK WILL NOT START AT TIMES, IT WILL LOCK ME OUT OF MY OWN VEHICLE (THANK GOD MY KIDS WERE NEVER LOCKED IN). THE FUEL PUMP RUNS CONSTANTLY EVEN WHEN THE TRUCK IS TURNED OFF BECAUSE THE TIPM DOES NOT ALLOW IT TO TURN OFF. IT AFFECTS ALL OF MY ELECTRICAL STUFF, INCLUDING RADIO, POWER LOCKS AND POWER WINDOWS. MY WINDOWS WILL ROLE DOWN OUT OF NOWHERE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF, AND THE WINDOWS WILL NOT ROLE BACK UP. THE BACKUP CAMERA WILL COME ON WHILE I AM DRIVING FORWARD, MY RADIO WILL FREEZE UP TO WHERE I CAN NO DO ANYTHING TO IT. MY KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND WILL NOT COME OUT! THE WHOLE ENTIRE TRUCK JUST LOCKS UP. WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING, AND IT DECIDES TO SHUT OFF OUT OF NOWHERE, I...

I REPLACED A FUEL PUMP, THEN A BATTERY, BECAUSE I WAS TOLD THAT WAS THE PROBLEM WITH MY 2011 RAM 1500. COME TO FIND OUT IT IS A DEFECTIVE TIPM MODULE THAT IS NOW ON RECALL FOR SEVERAL OTHER MODELS OF DODGE VEHICLES. MY TIPM IS THE SAME ONES ON RECALL EXCEPT NOT ON THE RAM 1500. IT HAS COST ME $1,300.00. NOT THEY WANT $1,200.00 MORE. ADD ME TO ANY COMPLAINT AND RECALL REPAIRS YOU MAY HAVE.

BRAKE FAILURE AFTER "SERV 4WD" INDICATOR APPEARS. WAS OPERATING IN 2WD MODE, TRAVELING AT APX 30MPH WHEN AFTER BRAKES APPLIED THE VEHICLE LOST GRIP AND SLIDE. "SERV 4WD" ILLUMINATED AND HAD NO BRAKE POWER, USE EMER TO STOP. SHUTODD ENGINE, RESTARTED AND MESSAGE WAS GONE. *TR
