On 01/21/2026 there was a warning light that came on stating accelerator control sensor, the next morning the truck started stalling, and continued stalling multiple times. I attempted to get the vehicle to the service center. It then stalled 2 more times, the service center told me they couldn’t look at the truck until the next day, the vehicle then stalled on me again that evening, they kept the truck until Friday evening, and told me they couldn’t duplicate the issue. They knew it had happened, but they couldn’t find the cause without replacing a bunch of parts until they found the correct issue. I took the vehicle home, started it the next morning and the maintenance required issue again returned, I took it back to the service center, they checked the codes, and told me it shows the 3rd taillight is staying on which indicates usually a fuel issue....

Excessive Diesel Exhaust Regeneration. Vehicle in in regeneration about 72% of the time. Check engine light comes on about every 2 weeks with code P2459. The P2459 code indicates an issue with the diesel particulate filter (DPF) regeneration frequency in diesel vehicles. This code is triggered when the powertrain control module (PCM) detects that the DPF regeneration process has not occurred as expected. Have to take to dealership for a manual regeneration and to clear the code. Dealership says this is a known issue for Ram Diesel engines from 2018-2024. Dealership says Ram has yet to address the issue even though its been 7 years since the issue started in the 2018 model year. Been dealing with this for a year now.

We bought our 2024 3500 Dodge RAM in Florida in late March. Last weekend the truck started to feel like it was jerking while we were pulling our 5th wheel. On Monday we schedule an appointment in Brockton Massachusetts at a dealership. We were told there need to be a system update and that it was all set. On Wednesday we started our 3 hour drive to Maine when suddenly while we were on the highway the truck began to overheat and revving loud only going 35mph. We pulled over into a parking lot and called RAM roadside assistance. We were told to let the truck cool down and try again. After being in a parking lot with our 4 kids and 2 dogs in 100 degree weather for 6 hours we attempted to start the truck. However every time we put it in drive the truck shut off. At...

Vehicle displayed warnings: Service Antilock Brakes Service Electronic Stability Control Service Trailer Brake System The truck has only 4,650 miles on it. When this happens, the above systems do not work along with the 4 wheel drive system. When towing a heavy trailer, the loss of trailer brakes can easily cause an accident due to jackknifing of the trailer and greatly increased stopping distance. Loosing 4 wheel drive in snow or mud can cause an accident or getting stuck.
