2020 RAM PROMASTER Engine Problems

This van has been at a Dodge dealership shop for the same melted fuse box issues over 6 times and caught on fire last week while driving it back from the dealership to be used.

The vehicle is subject to two active safety recalls issued by the manufacturer, including a recall related to the rear backup camera system. The manufacturer has acknowledged the safety defects, but no remedy has been released for an extended period of time. The backup camera recall affects rear visibility while reversing, which poses a safety risk to the driver, passengers, pedestrians, and nearby vehicles. The backup camera intermittently fails or does not display an image as intended. The recall has been open for several months, and no estimated repair timeline has been provided by the manufacturer or dealer. I have contacted the dealer/manufacturer and was informed that no remedy is currently available.

The prior owner had several repairs completed to the cooling system in the months prior to us purchasing the vehicle which included replacing the radiator, cylinder heads and gaskets as well as many other components. Per the dealership, there was a code that stated an overheating indicator showed approx 1000 miles prior to us bringing the vehicle in. The prior owner states that this indicator light never came on and it never came on for us...
