All Forward Collision Avoidance Warnings Complaints
1. Nature of Safety Complaint I am submitting this complaint to report repeated and unresolved safety-related defects affecting my 2025 Ram 1500 manufactured by Stellantis (FCA US LLC). The vehicle has experienced ongoing failures of safety-related systems since purchase on August 6, 2025. Despite multiple repair attempts at three authorized dealerships, the issues persist and the vehicle has remained out of service for over four months. 2. Dealership Repair History (Safety Context) Repairs were performed at: Colonial Dodge Dartmouth Quirk CDJR Dorchester Colonial Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram The vehicle is currently in dealer possession (Hudson, MA) for ongoing repairs. 3. Safety-Related Defects A. Parking Sensor System Failure Front and rear parking sensors repeatedly malfunction. These are collision-avoidance / driver-assist safety systems. Multiple repair orders document ongoing failures. System reliability is compromised despite repeated software updates and module replacements. Safety Concern: Increased risk of collision due to nonfunctional proximity detection. B....
Parking sensor failed when pulling in parking spot and didn’t alert driver of concrete light pole that was approaching vehicle.
I do not believe my truck's forward collision warning and emergency braking work. I have had a few very close calls with rearending a vehicle in front of me and the truck did not brake automatically or give any collision warning. Also, the adaptive cruise control is set on the furthest distance, but it follows very closely to the vehicle in front of me. Like a 1.5 second length at the most. When I change the setting to follow closer, it will follow a vehicle within inches. I believe this causes a safety issue with a potential crash.
Components keep going offline, about 5 times a week. Larry Miller RAM, says there's nothing they can do, since the technology is so new. So I purchased a $84k vehicle for their safety features, that don't work 50% of the time.
All major braking and safety systems have failed, including the parking brake, 4-wheel drive, cruise and adaptive cruise control, lane departure warnings, blind spot monitoring, and parking collision alerts. These failures occurred at the same time, and we believe there may be additional issues not yet identified. Our local dealership (Barry Sanders Supercenter, Stillwater, OK) attempted multiple repairs before opening a service ticket with RAM/Stellantis. We were informed the part needed to fix the problem is backordered for approximately one year. This extended delay means we must continue driving a vehicle without critical safety systems or park it indefinitely, creating both a financial and safety burden. The loss of these features greatly increases the risk of collisions, especially in bad weather or on highways where adaptive cruise, lane departure warnings, and blind spot detection are essential. Online searches show this is not an isolated issue but a recurring problem in...
Purchased a 2025 RAM 1500 TUNGSTEN on [XXX]. Within a week of purchase, the blind spot monitors, forward collision monitors, and the emergency braking all quick working. The first attempt to fix was replacing wiring. This stopped it for a week before they were back on. Goes back into shop and replace and fully charge batteries and again it lasted about a week. Two more trips to shop (3rd and 4th visits) for same issues with more "quick fixes". Fifth attempt to fix took a couple weeks and had a module replaced. which lasted for about 3 weeks. After a trip to Florida in April it had to go in to shop again for the same issues. This time is spent 7 weeks in the shop, replaced multiple modules and other trial and error pieces before it was "fixed" again. Got vehicle back in June and it ran good until...
Constantly getting warnings that Auto emergecy braking, blind spot monitoring, and forward collision is disabled and needs service. It flashes on and off on the dash at inconsistent rates and appears to be bad wiring connections or faulty equipment. Been to dealer numerous times and still not fixed. I feel like these systems are going to fail me and could cause a potential safety concern.
The instrument cluster panel went blank for over 40 miles, despite us stopping, shutting off and restarting, etc. We had no idea what speed we were going or any of the metrics monitored by the instrument cluster like turn signals, fuel level, engine temperature, etc. No cruise control. We took it to an auto parts store that captured the error code U0155. The RAM app on my Iphone also sent a warning that the blind spot monitoring failed. I will be bringing it to Champion Chrysler Dodge Ram in Lansing, MI, on 7/7/2025 and do not intend to take it back until this problem is resolved. While the instrument cluster panel went back to normal since then, how can I be assured it will not fault again and what safety protocols can I rely upon?
ram 1500 RHO year model 2500 blind spot sensors in mirror stay on sometimes for no reason as well as a service adas message, and clean blind spot sensors. this makes the self driving feature not work on many new ram rho's.
Multiple warning lights for “Automatic Emergency Braking Unavailable Service Required” along with “Blind Spot Unavailable Service Required” this truck required 4 (four) trips to the dealer to find a resolution. Parts took 50 days to arrive so had to disable these important safety systems and continue driving. Blind spot light on passenger side mirror goes off randomly in heavy rain even after this repair. So while driving in the rain, it’s unreliable. Over 30 other reports of all the above issues on the RAM-RHO forums.
Since purchasing the vehicle in April, I have had a continuous problem with the brake's and brake system's. The red dash warning chime and red warning light have come on. I have brought the car in 4 times to the dealer for repair, to no avail. This happened before I put 100 miles on the car and has continued. I currently only have about 680 miles. The dealer has "worked" on on it for almost 2 months (bought the car 3 months ago). The following codes keep being set (scan attached). 2 Anti-Lock Brake System Code : C05D2-00 - Master Cylinder Piston Position Higher Than Expected. C0597-00 - Brake System Control Module 'A' Performance. 1 Instrument Panel Cluster Code: B12B7-92 - Instrument Panel Cluster Display. 1 Integrated Trailer Control Module Code: C10C7-00 - Electronic Trailer Brake Control Output.
The truck brake pedal got hard and went all the way to the bottom. Dash lighted up like a Christmas tree. Luckily I was entering a parking lot so I was going slow and was able to park the truck. Truck only has 453 miles and is only 2 weeks since purchase. If there's a recall for this issue I believe it wasn't taken care of before selling it to me.
2025 RAM 1500 with 1580 miles. While in 4WD at 10 mph, vehicle message “service electronic stability control” followed by “ 4WD system temporarily unavailable” and “emergency braking unavailable. I was on a beach when it failed. Managed to get off the beach with failure still there. I shut down the vehicle a few miles later and started it back up and failure still there. After 7 miles the failure disappeared. Called service and they said call back if it happened again?? Told me the code would not be observable by the time I got to them. Sounds similar to a recall on vehicles manufactured thru August of 2024. This truck was built in September 2024.
