Due to a leak on the back sliding window water entered the vehicle and caused the “RFO” box to break. Dealership told me that is the box that connects the fob keyes to the truck causing the truck to not recognize any keys.
On Saturday December 29th, while driving on a smaller regional highway I heard noise which seemed to be coming from the truck. As I looked into the rear view mirror I watched in horror the tonneau cover take flight and slam into the roadway behind me. Thankful, the cars noted to my right were not directly behind me, as it would have certainly caused a serious accident. I did circle back to locate the remains of the tonneau cover and still have it in my possession for evaluation. I contacted the dealer inquiring if there had been any recalls or safety issues or concerns regarding the tonneau cover that came with the 2022 custom build RAM truck. In that email I also who I should be in contact with to discuss the replacement of the cover and repairs to my truck for the failure of the cover. In my email...
Product recall caused multiple accidents in vehicle resulting in permanent injuries
Have nicks on all 4 door latches on vehicle. Took vehicle to Bettenhausen Chrysler in Tinley Park, where I purchased, and they turned me over to corporate. After 3 months of no answer from corporate case closed and Chrysler not paying for repairs. I have checked with dealers In Illinois, Missouri, and Colorado. They all had multiple vehicles with same problem. After numerous attempts to contact anyone at dealership finnaly got a call from Mr Bettenhausen. Mr Bettenhausen stated he had same damage on his personal vehicle and door latches were faulty and ended conversation with me. Vehicle has not been inspected by anyone other then Bettenhausen Chrysler dodge. I feel if door latches are faulty it puts me and anyone else who is on roads as well.
My truck is 2 weeks old. I was driving to pick my child up from school, and the sun roof exploded spontaneously spraying glass all over me and causing me to almost wreck the truck. This sounded like a gun shot in my ear and there is glass everywhere. I had to be very careful pulling off the road so I did not get cut or injured.
This multifunction (split tailgate) will not close properly. I must slam it shut multiple time before it will latch properly. The dealership has tried to fix it multiple times and has been unsuccessful in doing so. They tell me I have to live with it now.
The contact owns a 2022 Ram 1500. The contact stated that after driving the truck home from the dealer he heard a whistling sound coming from the window. The contact took the vehicle back to the dealer who changed the weather seal on the window however, the issue still remained. The contact returned the vehicle to the dealer who then replaced the weather seal on the door however, the whistling continued. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The approximate failure mileage was 300.
