2016 RAM 1500 Unknown Or Other Problems

WATER CONDENSATION ON INSIDE OF PASS GER SIDE WINDSHIELD- SUNROOF SEEMS TO BE LETTING WATER COME IN THROUGH THE GLASS SEAL. CHRYSLER ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN HOWEVER MY TRUCK WAS NOT INCLUDED? WATER WILL COME IN VIA THE VISOR AND DURING TEMPS UNDER 50- LITERALLY THE ENTIRE PASSENGER SIDE TO THE MIRROR I HAS A LARGE AMOUNT OF WATER BUILT UP LIKE CONDENSATION. WHEN IT RAINS HARD WATER ALSO COMES IN AND WILL DROP FROM THE SUN VISOR TOO!

CODE P26AB. COOLANT 3-WAY VALVE IS MALFUNCTIONING. CURRENTLY HAVE 50,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. THERE IS CURRENTLY A RECALL FOR THE 2013-2016 RAM 1500 FOR THE SAME ISSUE BUT FOR SOME REASON, THE RECALL DON'T COVER MY CAR EVEN THOUGH IT'S A 2016. WHY DON'T THE RECALL COVER MY CAR?

THE REMOTE START WILL START THE TRUCK WHEN FOB IS IN MY POCKET. PROBLEM---THE TRUCK HAS BEEN IN MY GARAGE AND STARTED A FEW TIMES. THIS COULD GAS US IN THE HOUSE! I DID AN INTERNET SEARCH AND THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHERS. IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN PARKED IN THE PARKING LOT. WHEN IN A CLOSED GARAGE THIS COULD KILL A PERSON OR FAMILY.

I HAVE A LEAK IN FRONT WINDSHIELD SEAL, LEFT UPPER CORNER, NEVER HAD ACCIDENT, THE WINDSHIELD WAS NEVER TOUCHED PREVIOUSLY. IT ONLY HAS AROUND 14,000 MILES, MY CAR IS BARELY USED.

MY TAILGATE HAS OPENED BY ITSELF 4 TIMES RECENTLY. I CHECK EVERY TIME I CLOSE IT TO ENSURE THAT IT'S CLOSED AND LOCKED PROPERLY. EVERY TIME I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AND IT'S FALLEN OPEN. THIS LAST TIME, I WAS HAULING A TRAILER AND IT OPEN BY ITSELF, GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE TAILGATE LANDED ON THE TRAILER TONGUE JACK AND DAMAGED MY TAILGATE.

SINCE PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE I NOTICED THE SEALS LEAK DURING PRECIPITATION. I REPLACED THE SEAL AROUND THE UPPER CAB REAR BRAKE LIGHT. THIS STOPPED THE PUDDLE FROM FORMING UNDER THE BACK SEAT BUT THERE IS STILL WATER GETTING INTO THE CAB SOME WAY BECAUSE I CAN SMELL THE DAMPNESS IN THE CAB AFTER RAINY WEATHER.

THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THE EGR COOLER (VB1/NHTSA 19V-757) FOR ALMOST ONE YEAR. OUR DEALER (LARRY H MILLER RAM) IN SANDY UT KEEPS TELLING US THAT FCA HAS NOT MADE THE PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX THE DEFECT.

COOLANT LEAKING. LEAK COULDN'T BE DETECTED BY ONLY EYES OBSERVATION UNDER THE TRUCK. IT'S UNKNOWN WHERE THE LEAK WENT. FIRST, WE REFILLED THE COOLANT, AND WHEN IT HAPPENED THE 2ND TIMES AFTER A PERIOD OF TIME OF 1-2 MONTHS, WE REFILLED IT ONCE AGAIN, ONCE THE COOLANT TANK WAS EMPTY, BUT ONLY THIS TIME, IT'S A SHORT PERIOD OF 2 DAYS. TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP, WAS TOLD BY THE MECHANIC THAT IT'S A RECALL ITEM, THAT IT HAD BEEN REPORTED SOME OF THE RAM 1500 HAD MYSTERIOUS COOLANT LEAKED. THEY HAD NO IDEA WHERE THE COOLANT GO, THEY SAID IT'S NOT "SAFE" TO DRIVE THE TRUCK. NOW MY TRUCK HAD BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR 1.5 MONTHS AND WAS TILL BEING TOLD THAT THE PART HAD NOT ARRIVED. WE NEVER RECEIVED ANY RECALL WARNING FROM CHRYSLER. LUCKILY THE COOLANT WARNING SIGN IS WORKING. OTHERWISE, WE WON'T BE...

IN JAN. 2020 I WAS TRAVELING FROM VALDEZ, AK TO WASILLA, AK WHEN A WARNING LIGHT CAME ON FOR THE DEF SYSTEM. THE DEF WAS FROZEN. I WAS FAIRLY CLOSE TO A FRIENDS HOUSE SO I STOPPED THERE AND WE PULLED THE TRUCK INTO THE GARAGE TO THAW. ONCE IT THAWED THE WARNING WENT AWAY AND THE TRUCK WORKED FINE. BUT NOW I'M CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING MY TRUCK ANY DISTANCE AWAY FROM MY HOME DURING THE WINTER. I OFTEN TRAVEL DURING THE WINTER WHEN THE TEMPS CAN BE -5 TO -30. I BELIEVE THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED, MOST ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHO OWN THIS TRUCK AND LIVE IN AREAS THAT DO GET COLD.

THE VEHICLE HAS HAD A VIBRATION SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN 2018. THE VIBRATION COMES AT ABOUT 45 MPH AND CONTINUES AS YOU GO UP IN SPEED. HAD THE DEALER LOOK INTO IT WITH NO LUCK, EXCEPT CHANGING MULTIPLE PARTS FOR NO BENEFIT. I REPLACED THE STOCK WHEELS FOR ANOTHER SET OF NEW WHEELS HOPING FOR THE VIBRATION TO GO AWAY AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO FIX THE VIBRATION WITH MULTIPLE ALIGNMENTS AND ROAD FORCE BALANCING. WITH ALL BEING UNSUCCESSFUL, THE NEW WHEELS DID NOT HELP. SO THEN I CHANGED THE TIRES. STILL, NO DIFFERENCE IN THE RIDE. I NOTICED THEY ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS WITH NO ANSWERS FOR THIS ISSUE ON THE NEW GEN RAM 1500'S. THE THING THAT REALLY IRRITATES ME, WHEN A 2006 OLD 2500 WORK TRUCK RIDES SMOOTHER THAN MY 2016 RAM 1500 LARAMIE WITH MORE ADVANCED SUSPENSION COMPONENTS... I LOVE MY TRUCK, BUT WHEN I RIDE...

IT WAS JUST RECENTLY BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT THERE WAS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS SENT OUT FOR THE 3.0 ECODIESEL TO CHANGE THE TYPE/SPECIFICATION OF OIL AND TO GO AGAINST WHAT THE OWNERS MANUAL STATES BECAUSE THE MANUAL IS WRONG. IT CALLS FOR AN OIL THAT IS TO LIGHT BREAKS DOWN MOLECULAR WEIGHT TOO QUICKLY AND TRUCKS AND JEEPS ALIKE EQUIPED WITH THE ECODIESEL HAVE BEEN HAVING CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE DUE TO PREMATURE ENGINE WEAR ON INTERNAL COMPONENTS. IT IS RECOMMENDED TO PUT 5W40 IN INSTEAD. THIS IS FIRST AND FOREMOST TRUE I DID RESEARCH AND CONFIRMED THAT THE CHANGE WAS MADE BUT NEVER MADE PUBLIC TO THE OWNERS LIKE THE CURRENT CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS WAS. MANY OWNERS DON'T KNOW THIS CHANGE EXSISTED AND MANY OWNERS DON'T KNOW THAT THE DEALERSHIPS ARE STILL MAKING THIS ERROR AND CONTINUING TO FILL THE TRUCKS WITH 5W30 FOR OWNERS THAT COME IN...

VEHICLE TAKEN IN ON 8-12-19 TO DEALERSHIP TO CHECK OUT DRIVEABILITY CONCERNS AFTER "APPROVED EMISSON MODIFICATION" THEY HAD IT TO APPLY UPDATE FROM 5-17-19 TO 6-12-19, CONCERNS ON 8-12-19 WERE ACCELERATION, ALSO TO CHECK EGR SYSTEM AS I WAS LOSING COOLANT THEY HAD MY VEHICLE FROM 8-12-19/9-13-19 WHEN THEY CALLED ME TELLING ME I NEEDED TO RETURN THE RENTAL CAR AND PICK MY VEHICLE AS THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING FOR THE ACCELERATION I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT FOR AN UPDATE TO BE RELEASED. THEY DIDN'T CHECK THE EGR SYSTEM ONLY TOPPED IT OFF WITH COOLANT AND TOLD ME TO WATCH IT. ALL WAS FINE UNTIL 9-16-19 WHEN I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK, ABOUT 7 MILES FROM WORK THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON I CONTINUED ON ABOUT A MILE FROM MY WORK LOCATION THE SERVICE THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT ILLUMINATED I LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE AND ABOUT 1/4-1/2...

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, SLOWED VEHICLE TO A STOP, SHUT OFF ENGINE, NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM ENGINE COMPARTMENT. TRIED TO OPEN HOOD BUT IT WAS TOO HOT. NOTICED FLAME UNDER HOOD WITHIN A MINUTE WHOLE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WAS IN FLAMES.

I HAVE A RAM 2016 ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION MY TRUCK ACCELERATED ON IT'S OWN WHILE I WAS DRIVING. ONCE ON THE INTERSTATE GOING AROUND 70 MPH (HAD 3 PASSENGERS WITH ME) AND TWICE TODAY 10/22/19 IN MORNING TRAFFIC AND ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT. IT TOOK HITTING THE BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES TO STOP. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP

I BOUGHT MY TRUCK ON THE 25TH AT 6PM. AND AT 7P ON THE 26TH IT HAD CAUGHT FIRE ON THE HIGHWAY AND BURNT RO THE GROUND WITH ME AND MY PREGNANT WIFE IN THE TRUCK. I HEARD TICKING COMING FROM THE MOTOR FOLLOWED BY A LOUD POP AND THEN LOST ALL POWER NO GAS RESPONSE AND COASTED TO BREAKDOWN LANE JUST BARLEY GOT MI WIFE OUT OF THE TRUCK AND THE TRUCK WAS FULLY ELGUFFED.

SINCE AN EMISSIONS RECALL MY TRUCK HAS HAD A DANGEROUS AMOUNT OF DEAD PEDAL LAG WHEN. FIRST STARTING TO DRIVE. THE FIRST 5-10 MINUTES OF EVERY DRIVE CREATE A DANGEROUS SITUATION WHERE I AM CONSISTENTLY WORRIED ABOUT CAUSING AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE MY TRUCK DOES NOT OPERATE LIKE A NORMAL VEHICLE, OR AS IT DID BEFORE THE RECALL HAPPENED.

SUDDEN STOP AT 75 MPH IN FREEWAY. SAFETY HAZARD! MY 2016 DODGE RAM SUDDENLY STOPS RANDOMLY WHEN GOING AT 75 MPH. IT HAS CAUSED SEVERAL PEOPLE TO ALMOST SLAM INTO MY TRUCK. ONE MAN WAS SO ANGRY I PULLED OVER AND TOLD HIM I WAS SO SORRY. THE GUY SAID THERE WERE NO BRAKE LIGHTS SO IT WAS DANGEROUS!!! I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES BUT THEY TELL ME SINCE IT DOESN'T GIVE THEM A CODE, THEY CANNOT PINPOINT THE PROBLEM. THE MANAGER AT THE SANTA CRUZ, CA DEALERSHIP TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE WITH A SCANNER ATTACHED; IT HAPPENED TO THEM BUT NO CODE APPEARS! AFTER THEY CHANGED A PART, THEY GAVE IT BACK BUT IT IS STILL DOING IT. THEY ARE RELUCTANT TO DO ANYTHING ELSE BECAUSE RAM DOESN'T WANT TO COVER THE COST. THIS IS MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION FOR OUR FAMILY'S LIVELIHOOD AND...

SINCE GETTING THE RAM ECO DIESEL MANDATORY RECALL / RE FLASH. I HAVE EXPERIENCED A "DEAD PEDAL." IT'S NOT AS BAD IN WARMER WEATHER BUT NOW WE ARE STARTING TO EXPERIENCE COLDER MORNINGS AND WINTER IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. THE DRIVE-ABILITY OF THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE AND UNSETTLING. I AM WORRIED ABOUT MY FAMILY NOW.

DISPLAY SYSTEM, RADIO, NAV, REAR VIEW CAMERA, ECT. REAR VIEW CAMERA, SOMETIMES GOES ON WITH A SOLID GREEN SCREEN. THE RADIO SOMETIMES LOOSES IT PRESETS. THE NAV SOMETIMES WILL NOT TAKE AN ADDRESS. CHRYSLER STATES THERE IS AT LEAST 1 DOWNLOADABLE REPAIR BUT WANTS TO CHARGE FOR IT, APPROX. $125 AND IF THE DOWNLOAD DOES NOT WORK WORK AND IT MAKES THINGS WORSE, THEY STILL WANT THEIR MONEY FOR TRYING AND WILL NOT MAKE ANY REPAIRS.

AEM EMISSIONS RECALL V08/RAM DEALER COMPUTER REPROGRAMING COMPLETED 20 JUNE 2019. PCM FLASHING FROM P/N: 68280881AH TO TARGET P/N: 68280881A0 AND TCM FLASHING FROM P/N: 68282282AD TO TARGET P/N: 68282282AI. POST 2016 RAM ECODIESEL RECALL. MY POST AEM EMISSIONS RECALL/RAM DEALER COMPUTER REPROGRAMING HAS CREATED A SIGNIFICANTLY IMPAIRED VEHICLE WITH UNPREDICTABLE ACCELERATION LAG AND IMPAIRED ENGINE RESPONSE. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER, THE VEHICLE HAS JUST UNDER 44K MILES ON IT. THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER THE FACTORY WARRANTY AND HAS NOT BEEN MODIFIED IN ANY WAY FROM MANUFACTURER SPECS. THE VEHICLE BECAME IMPAIRED AFTER THE EPA/DOJ FORCED RECALL FOR EMISSIONS CONTROL TAMPERING. THIS UPDATE HAS PUT ME AND MY FAMILY IS SEVERAL SERIOUSLY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. WHEN MERGING ONTO HIGHWAY TRAFFIC THE TRUCK HAS SIGNIFICANT/SEVER POWER OR RESPONSIVENESS. PULLING OUT INTO/ON CROSS STREET INTERSECTIONS OR FROM BUSINESSES ENTRY/DRIVEWAYS INTO TRAFFIC THE TRUCK HAS LITTLE TO NO POWER OR GAS PEDAL...

AFTER FCA COMPLETED THE EMISSIONS RECALL ON MY 2016 RAM THE TRUCK NOW DOES NOT WANT TO ACCELERATE INTO TRAFFIC. THIS IS CAUSED SEVERAL ISSUES WHEN TRYING TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC OR ONTO THE INTERSTATE. ALSO WHILE PULLING A TRAILER I WAS NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY INTO TRAFFIC OR TO THE HIGHWAY. DUE TO THIS WHILE PULLING OUT IN TRAFFIC I HAVE BARELY AVOIDED SEVERAL WRECKS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2016 RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH WITH THE SEAT BELT SECURED, THE CONTACT BECAME DISTRACTED BY HIS PHONE AND CRASHED WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE AT A RED LIGHT. THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE OF AN UNKNOWN VAN AS A RESULT THE VAN SPUN AND CRASHED BACK INTO THE REAR DRIVER SIDE PANEL OF THE CONTACTS VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED NECK INJURIES HOWEVER MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NOT PROVIDED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THERE WAS NO FIRE DUE TO THE CRASH. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT LOT. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE INSURANCE COMPANY DEEMED THE VEHICLE A TOTAL LOSS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 51,000. *DT *DT*JB

2016 RAM 1500 4WD SHAKES AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF 60+ MPH. STARTED HAPPENING AFTER ABOUT 30,000 MILES AND THE TRUCK NOW HAS 75000. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY POSTS/BLOGS ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THE SHAKING COMES AND GOES ABOUT EVERY 1/2 MILE. WILL RIDE FAIRLY SMOOTH THEN IT REALLY STARTS SHAKING AND FEELS LIKE IT IS UNDER THE CENTER OF THE TRUCK. IT DOES NOT AFFECT THE STEERING WHEEL. THEN AFTER ABOUT A 1/2 MILE IT MOSTLY GOES AWAY, IN ANOTHER 1/2 MILE IT COMES BACK AND THE PATTERN CONSTANTLY REPEATS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY HAVE REPLACED BOTH REAR UPPER AND LOWER TRAILING ARMS, 2 SETS OF ALL NEW TIRES, ONE SET NORMALLY BALANCED AND ONE SET WAS ROAD FORCE BALANCED, HAVE CHANGED OUT WHEELS, REPLACED SHOCKS, AND STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE TRAILING ARMS UNDER WARRANTY THE...

TRUCK WAS RUNNING FINE WITH NO ISSUES UNTIL THE EMISSIONS V08 RECALL. TRUCK NOW HAS A SIGNIFICANT LAG WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOPPED POSITION. IT TYPICALLY HAPPENS WHEN TURNING (PULLING OUT FROM A STOPPED POSITION). IT HAS ALMOST CAUSED US TO GET IN TO TWO DIFFERENT ACCIDENTS DUE TO LACK OF ACCELERATION. MY WHOLE FAMILY WAS IN THE CAR AT THE TIME. I REFUSE TO LET MY CHILDREN RIDE AS PASSENGERS NOW BECAUSE IT IS A HUGE SAFETY RISK. MY TRUCK WAS FINE BEFORE THE RECALL SOFTWARE UPDATE (V08) AND NOW IT'S A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD.

AFTER RECEIVING THE V08 ECODIESEL EMISSIONS UPDATE, THE VEHICLE PERFORMANCE HAS SUFFERED SIGNIFICANTLY! THE ACCELERATION DELAY/LAG IS TRULY A LIFE-SAFETY ISSUE AND WILL CAUSE A LIFE-THREATENING ACCIDENT. IN ADDITION TO THE SIGNIFICANT DELAYS IN ACCELERATION (ESPECIALLY WHEN "COLD" AND WHEN MERGING ONTO TRAFFIC), THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS HAVE BEEN ALTERED TO BE UNRESPONSIVE AND SIGNIFICANTLY HINDER PERFORMANCE. THE VEHICLE IS DANGEROUSLY UNSAFE WITH THE CURRENT RECALL UPDATE!!

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED AND PUT IN DRIVE, THE SCREEN DISPLAYS A NOTE SAYING VEHICLE NOT IN PARK! AND WILL NOT DO ANYTHING UNLESS I PUT IT BACK IN PARK, TURN OFF THE VEHICLE , WAIT A COUPLE OF SECONDS AND RETRY

AROUND 2-3 THOUSAND RPM MY 2016 DODGE RAM 1500 TRADESMAN WITH 23,000 MILES GET THIS HORRIBLE VIBRATION THAT SEEMS TO ORIGINATE FROM THE TRANSMISSION AREA OF THE VEHICLE. THIS VIBRATION FEELS LIKE IT COULD BE THE DRIVESHAFT OR TRANSMISSION. DOESN'T MATTER HOW FAST I'M GOING, AS SOON AS I LET OFF THE GAS AND THE TRUCK BEGINS TO DOWNSHIFT I START FEELING THE VIBRATION ONCE I PRESS THE GAS TO ACCELERATE AGAIN IT'S FEELS LIKE THE WHOLE BOTTOM OF THE TRUCK IS VIBRATING BROUGHT THE GAS PEDAL AS IF I'M RIDING ON A RUMBLE STRIP. I LITERALLY HAVE TO ALMOST FLOOR IT FOR THE VIBRATION TO GO AWAY.

AFTER I BOUGHT MY 2016 RAM 1500 IN FEBRUARY 2019 I NOTICED MY HORN AND THE EVIC ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER STOPPED WORKING CAUSING ME NOT TO BE ABLE TO READ MY TPMS OR OIL LIFE OR ANY OTHER EVIC FUNCTIONS. ALSO WITH THE HORN NOT WORKING I FEEL IT'S A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS SAME ISSUE ON PREVIOUS YEAR MODELS. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE LIGHTS ON THE EVIC AND CRUISE CONTROL SWITCHES DON'T ILLUMINATE EITHER. BY GOOGLING THE ISSUE IT SEEMS THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER RAM 1500 OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I FEEL THESE ARE ALL MAJOR SAFETY ISSUES AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED.

WHEN I AM APPROACHING A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, I APPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES. AS THE VEHICLE IS COMING TO A STOP, IT SOMETIMES LUNGES FORWARD UNEXPECTEDLY AS IF I HAVE BEEN REAR-ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO TWO SEPARATE DEALERSHIPS FOR THIS HAZARDOUS CONDITION. BOTH TIMES THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM EXISTS. BOTH TIMES THEY UPDATED THE COMPUTER AND CLAIMED IT WAS FIXED. BOTH TIMES THEY WERE WRONG. THE VEHICLE STILL LUNGES FORWARD OCCASIONALLY WHEN COMING TO A STOP. I SPOKE TO THE COMPANY'S CUSTOMER CARE REPRESENTATIVE. THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVE THEM CHECK IT A THIRD TIME. I HAVE NO FAITH IN THE DEALERSHIP AFTER TWICE TAKING IT IN WITH NO RESOLUTION. IT ALSO COSTS ME TIME AND MONEY TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP JUST TO HAVE THEM TELL ME THE...

28 DEGREES F THIS MORNING. I STARTED TRUCK AND LET IT WARM UP FOR 5 MIN. DISENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKE, PUT IT IN DRIVE. AS I STARTED TO MOVE (3) ERROR MESSAGES CAME UP ON DASH: SERVICE SHIFTER, SERVICE TRANSMISSION, SERVICE THROTTLE CONTROL. I STOPPED TRUCK, TURNED IT OFF AND THEN STARTED IT AGAIN. NO ERROR CODES; ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ON. I DROVE TO WORK 2.5 MILES AWAY. I HAD TO STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND ENGINE JUST TURNED OFF. DASH BOARD WAS FLICKERING. I PUT TRUCK IN PARK, TURNED KEY OFF AND THEN TRIED TO RESTART TRUCK. NOTHING, LIGHTS STILL FLICKERING ON DASH. I TRIED TO PUT ON HAZARD LIGHTS BUT NO POWER TO THEM. I TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO RESTART TRUCK BUT TO NO AVAIL. AT SOME POINT IT WOULDN'T EVEN LET ME TURN THE KEY TO OFF. IT WAS STUCK IN THE "ACCESSORY" POSITION. I DID...

I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP(PEP BOYS) FOR CHECKING OF A SLIGHT WOBBLE IN THE DRIVE LINE OR DRIVE SHAFT OF MY VEHICLE. MY 2016 RAM 1500 HAD JUST COME OUT OF THE PURCHASED EXTENDED WARRANTY WHEN THE WOBBLE STARTED AT 60MPH. WHILE SEARCHING SEVERAL WEBSITES, FORUMS, YOUTUBE AND GOOGLE, I CAME UPON MANY OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE SAME ISSUE THAT RAM EVIDENTLY KNOWS ABOUT. RECENTLY I HAD BEEN TO THE RAM DEALERSHIP FOR ANOTHER RECALL ISSUE FOR THE CRUISE CONTROL. I MENTIONED TO THE TECHNICIAN ABOUT THIS ISSUE WITH THE WOBBLE, WHICH BECAME A CONVERSATION WHICH QUICKLY BECAME AVOIDED BY TWO PEOPLE THAT WERE TECHNICIANS. THE PROBLEM HAS BECOME MORE TROUBLESOME NOW THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT AND DRINKS IN THE DRINK ARE A CONSTANT SHAKE! NOW THAT THE WHOLE VEHICLE SHAKES, I FEEL THAT THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND MAY EFFECT THE BRAKING SYSTEM...

NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 18V-486. THE RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED JULY 26, 2018 BUT FCA STILL HAS NOT ISSUED THE PART FOR THIS RECALL AND IT HAS BEEN A FULL MONTH ALREADY. I USE MY BED TO CARRY GOODS ALL THE TIME AND I AM IN FEAR OF THE TAILGATE OPENING. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. THANK YOU

I WAS BACKING DOWN BOAT RAMP AND PUT TRUCK IN PARK I GOT OUT OF THE TRUCK TO SECURE BOAT TO TRAILER AND THE TRUCK ROLLED DOWN BOAT RAMP KNOCKING ME DOWN AND DRAGGING ME INTO THE WATER AND TRUCK COMPLETELY SEMERAGED IN BOTTOM OF LAKE.

AT EXTREMELY LOW SPEED THE FRONT COLLISION WARNING SENSOR WILL OCCASIONALLY FALSELY WARN OF AN OBJECT PRESENT. NUMEROUS REPAIRS HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTED BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. DEALER CLAIMS WE ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO HAVE EVER REPORTED THIS PROBLEM. WAITING FOR FCA TO DECIDE WHAT TO DO NEXT. I HAVE VIDEOS OF THE EVENTS BUT CURRENTLY NO STILL PHOTOS. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL DOZEN TIMES STARTING IN DEC 2016 AND AS RECENTLY AS AUG 6, 2018.

MY CRUISE CONTROL WAS ENGAGED AS I WAS GOING DOWN A MOUNTAIN APPROACHING A SHARP TURN WHEN I HIT THE BRAKES THE PETAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND THE TRUCK ACCELERATED. I WENT INTO THE WOODS WHERE I HIT NUMEROUS TREES AND TOTALED THE VEHICLE. WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS

WHILE THE TRUCK WAS IN MOTION TRAVELING ABOUT 70MPH DOWN THE INTERSTATE, MY PASSENGER WINDOW FELL HALFWAY INTO THE DOOR. THIS CAUSED ME TO SWERVE AND ALMOST HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE. IT WAS 20 DEGREES OUTSIDE AROUND 430 AM AND THE TRUCK AND BEEN WARMED UP SUFFICIENTLY AND THE HEATER WAS ON. HOWEVER I WAS STILL TOLD IT HAPPENED BECAUSE IT WAS COLD OUTSIDE AND THE "CLIPS" THAT HOLD THE WINDOW HAD BROKEN. I DID NOT ATTEMPT TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW. IT CONSTANTLY KEPT FALLING DOWN BY ITSELF AND I HAD TO HOLD THE POWER BUTTON UP TO KEEP IT FROM DOING SO, WHILE DRIVING IN THE MORNING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. ONCE I GOT TO WORK AND PARKED MY TRUCK IN A UNSECURED PARKING GARAGE, THE WINDOW WAS UP THIS WAS AT ABOUT 630 AM CST. UPON RETURNING TO MY PARKED/STATIONARY TRUCK AT A BREAK AROUND 9 AM CST, THE...

EXHAUST MANIFOLD SOUNDS LIKE ITS LEAKING AT START UP

HIGH SPEED VIBRATION STARTING AROUND 60 MPH ONLY GET WORST AS YOU SPEED UP.. ONE DEALER SAID IT WAS THE ECO. SYSTEM KICKING IN , ANOTHER SAID THERE WASN'T NO PROBLEM. BUT I NOW THERE'S ONE. TO MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 RAM 1500. WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE DROPPED AND THE REAR END RAISED 18 INCHES. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE WAS AT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO CHECK THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE HOME. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED THREE TIMES WITHIN THE PAST SIX MONTHS. THE DEALER (PATRIOT CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP, RAM, 916 S GEORGE NIGH EXPRESSWAY, MCALESTER, OK 74501) INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE AIR SUSPENSION PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CALL THE NUMBER ON THE BACK OF THE OWNER'S MANUAL TO SPEAK WITH SOMEONE ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

DRIVERS SIDE WIDOWS CLIPS BREAK WHEN WINDOW IS COLD IN WINTER. WINDOW DOES NOT GO UP OR DOWN. DEALER INDICATED THEY HAVE SEEN THIS QUITE A BIT ON OTHER 2016 RAM 1500. I ASKED IF THEY ARE GOING ISSUE A RECALL TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY SAID PROBABLY NOT SINCE IT'S ONLY IN THE WINTER AND ONLY IMPACTS COLD WEATHER VEHICLES. WHEN ASKED WHAT TO DO TO FIX IT THEY SAID DON'T USE THE WINDOW WHEN IT'S COLD. POOR DESIGN ON 2016 WINDOW MOTOR AND WON'T ISSUE A FIX. SHOTTY ENGINEERING AND PRODUCT UPLIFT.

THE VEHICLE HAS AN UPGRADED 32 GALLON FUEL TANK, HOWEVER ON E WITH THE FUEL LIGHT ON THE VEHICLE ONLY TAKES 24 GALLONS MAXIMUM. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THIS IS A SOFTWARE ISSUE WHICH HAS NO FIX AT THE MOMENT. THE DEALER CLAIMS THE SOFTWARE STILL READS THE 26 GALLON STANDARD FUEL TANK.

THE TRUCK WAS PUT INTO PARK WITH THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND THE ENGINE RUNNING. IT WAS PARKED IN A RESTAURANT PARKING LOT. THEN AROUND FIVE MINUTES LATER, IT WENT INTO REVERSE AND BEGAN ROLLING BACKWARDS. IT SEEMED TO ACCELERATE. I HAD TO JUMP IN AND SLAM ON THE BRAKE TO STOP IT. I DO NOT KNOW HOW THIS COULD OCCUR, BUT HAVE RECENTLY LEARNED OF RECALLS FOR SIMILAR SITUATION WITH THE TRUCK IN THE PARKED POSITION, BUT GOING INTO GEAR. OUR VIN WAS NOT RECALLED. THERE WERE WITNESSES TO THIS EVENT.

THE THREE WAY COOLANT VALVE FAILED. CAR HAS ABOUT 59000 MILES. I NOTE A REVIEW OF THE INTERNET REVEALS THAT THIS PROBLEM IS VERY COMMON AND CERTAINLY SHOULD NOT HAPPEN IN SUCH LOW MILES. THE VALVE PROBLEM APPEARS ONGOING. IN 2013 THERE WAS A RECALL FOR RAM TRUCKS FOR A SIMILAR ISSUE. CLEARLY IT HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED. SYSTEMS CAN FAIL AND WINDSHIELD DEFROSTERS WILL NOT WORK CREATING AN EXTREME HAZARD DURING DRIVING.

BLOWER MOTER STOP WORKING FOR THE 2 TIME FOR THE AC AND HEAT
