2014 Ram 1500 Complaint Log

These trucks have a known issue of rust causing failure of parking brakes to release. There are hundreds of complaints on forums, and dozens of youtube videos discussing this issue, and trying to provide repairs. One major issue is the rear axel hub is part of the problem, as this is where rust accumulates, and prevents the release of the parking brake, because the build up of rust causes the parking brake levers to seize. Chrysler does not offer the part that is affected, the entire axel would have to be replaced. This is an absurd design, that is prone to failure in any rust prone areas, and is aggravated because of further design flaws that don't allow for simple repair. It's easy to see the issue, when the parking brake is released, the parking brake cable hangs loosely under the truck, easily visible. When the brakes can't be released the parking brake shoes stay in contact with the drum, causing heat and eventually the friction material will completely separate from the shoes, which could cause the wheel to seize and not be able to rotate. I bought my truck used, and it came to me this way, which is another issue as the dealer should have repaired any safety defects.

The contact owns a 2014 Ram 1500. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Numbers: 22V406000 (Fuel System, Diesel) and 23V411000 (Engine and Engine Cooling) however, the parts to do the recall repairs were not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled. Additionally, the contact stated the vehicle failed to start. The dealer was made aware of the failure but confirmed that parts were not yet available. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

Drove my vehicle and then parked for one hour. Got back in and started it. Indicator light flashing for the steering wheel. I realized I could not turn my wheel. The power steering was out. I turned the vehicle on and off several times, and it "reset" itself and the indicator light was no longer flashing or lit up. Steering seemed fine as before. I drove it to the local Dodge dealership (Safford Dodge in Salisbury, MD) to see if they could check it out; mechanic came out and said it was electric power steering, he had seen this before, and it was unsafe to drive it any further. I felt uncomfortable driving it back home or to any other garage, as it was subject to going in and out. They are currently repairing the "power steering gear rack," at a cost of $2500. I am thankful this did not go out while I was driving- I would have been unable to turn the wheel and could have caused a serious accident to my vehicle and/or others. I looked this up online and found over 100 similar complaints involving power steering issues in Dodge Rams. I am currently at approx 74,400 miles and have not previously had any issue with my power steering prior to Monday. I am available to be contacted any time. I do not yet have any paperwork from the dealership regarding the repair as it is still there, but I can scan it and send it to the appropriate person once I get something from them.

Was driving home from church with my children in the truck when the dash lights flashes. It said battery power saver mode and then Service Electronic Power Steering. And then I started to drift towards the ditch. Was able to pull my truck off the road but it could’ve been an accident. I called my husband and he came to look at it. He happened to be at O’Reilley’s when I called him so he picked up some things and came to figure it out. After learning their is no steering fluid and doing some online research he checked the fuses. Put his code reader on it and no codes. Turn the truck back on the light was gone and steering was fine. We decided he would follow me home. Drove 12 miles and had no steering again. My truck has 98,000 miles on it. I’ve already had the rear main seal/ exhaust manifold redone (dealer warranty), entire rear including calipers, brakes, ball joints, wheel bearings, and tie rods redone (dealer warranty), and the rear brakes including calipers out of my own pocket Twice!! I’ve only had the truck for two years. Plus a few other miscellaneous electronic issues for my electrical ports, radio and dash lights, Traction Control, heated seats, and Electronic Braking System.

Sudden loss of electric power steering assist without warning or symptoms. Loss of power assist made steering extremely difficult. Vehicle is in an independent repair shop for an inspection and repair cost estimate. There was no warning or symptoms. Failure was SUDDEN.

I was driving at high speed on the expressway and my electrical power steering quit working. I ran off the road and into the ditch because the truck was too hard to control without the power steering. I could have crashed into someone or injured myself. This is a very dangerous situation to be in if you are driving at any speed. If my wife had been driving it could have been fatal. Additionally, the repairs were over $3500. I will be selling this truck as it is too dangerous for anyone to drive. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The contact owns a 2014 RAM 1500. The contact stated while driving 45 mph and making a right turn, the steering wheel became difficult to turn. The contact stated there was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the failure persisted. Additionally, the vehicle would jerk forward while driving to its destination. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. A dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 200,000. The VIN was not available.

I was driving down the road, fortunately in my neighborhood when I saw a brief alert regarding my trailer towing system before the truck completely shut down in the middle of the road. I was unable to restart and had to call a tow service. My mechanic stated it was a crank position sensor failure according to his diagnostic computer

The front fuel strap broke free from it's connection point to the frame, letting the front of the fuel tank sag towards the ground. It appears the connection slot on the frame has corroded and the strap pulled free from the connection slot on the frame. The issue could have been a lot worse if I had been traveling on the freeway buy luckily it broke on a residential street. The problem has been known to be found in 09-12 ram pickups. No current recalls for a 2014. A local dealership will be looking at it on Friday June 18th. The truck can be available to inspect but I currently have no other means of transportstion, so I plan on getting the strap fixed asap. There were no warning lights or any other indication of the strap failing prior to it coming free. I heard an odd humming/vibrating noise, initially thought it was an issue with the tires, but when I pulled over on the side of the road to inspect what was making the noise, I found the tank sagging and the front strap was no longer supporting it. I was able to get underneath the truck and verify that the strap was no longer attached to the frame, the fuel tank is temporarily being supported by a ratchet strap that I installed myself.

The contact owns a 2014 Ram 1500. The contact stated while driving 75 mph, the steering wheel became difficult to turn. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact pulled over to the side of the road. The vehicle was driven to his residence at low speeds. The contact stated that the following day the failure recurred with the power steering warning light illuminated. The contact drove to his residence. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. A dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 164,918.

Can and lifter failure where the eco mode in the engine shut off certain cylinders and made the lifter mess up the lifter and cam shaft has happened to multiple rams if you call a engine shop they have the same problem with almost every truck and it is at a big cost

Steering column whining noise problem for the last two years that dealership could not pinpoint, finally blossomed into an extremely dangerous random intermittent loss of power steering at any speed on a truck with only 73000 miles. As with many, many cases related to RAM trucks and their electronic power steering problems that have surfaced, my situation is the same as many who are finding that although a recall has been issued on certain vin numbers and serial numbers pertaining to the rack and pinion and electronic gear associated with some models, that my numbers are not on the list, therefore replacement costs are somewhere in the range of $2800-$3800. It seems unfathomable that the same wide-spread problem can exist with the same exact rack and pinion system on so many trucks, but Chrysler refuses to acknowledge all but a fraction of the vehicles that are currently on the road posing extremely potentially dangerous and fatal outcomes. Recall VB9 needs to be revised as an immediate no-cost replacement of all these faulty steering mechanisms.

Upon starting the vehicle, there was a blinking light in the instrument cluster which appeared to be a steering wheel icon followed by an exclamation point. When I put the vehicle into "drive" and pulled forward, the steering wheel was locked and would not turn side to side. I put the vehicle into park, turned it off, and then turned it back on. The blinking light was no longer activated, and the vehicle turned normally. I drove approximately 1/4 of a mile and was in traffic traveling straight when the blinking light came back on (same icon) and the steering locked up. I was traveling at a low speed and was able to turn the vehicle onto a side street where I was able to park it and call a tow truck. Upon some research in Ram truck forums online, it appears possible this is related to the "EPS" (Electronic Power Steering) module on the truck. Other Ram owners have experienced this same malfunction while driving, sometimes resulting in accidents. My experience appears similar to that of others who have described the intermittency of this issue. That very intermittency is what makes this such a dangerous issue that the manufacturer should be addressing proactively. I will not put my family back into this vehicle until the issue is ID'd and repaired by the manufacturer.

Cam Shaft Position Sensor failed on 08-Dec-2018. I paid for the repairs myself. Issue is subject of current recall. Unable to obtain reimbursement from FCA after multiple times providing requested documentation and request for reimbursement.

THE TRUCK HAS LOSS OF POWER STEERING OCCASIONALLY AT LOW SPEEDS. THERE WAS SAFETY RECALL FOR THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THEY WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM UNDER THE SAFETY RECALL BECAUSE THIS VIN NUMBER IS NOT ON THE NHTSA SAFETY RECALL LIST. I NEED THIS FIXED. THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PART INSTALLED FROM THE MANUFACTURER AND THEY KNOW THAT THE EPS IS FAULTY. REFERENCE NUMBER RC-VB9-19. SAFETY RECALL NUMBER VB9/NHTSA 19E-077 ELECTRIC POWER STEERING, CHRYSLER : ALL MODLES

The inline fuel pump system is incorrect it has electrical inside the fuel tank there should be a screen at the neck of the fuel tank then there should be a screen at the bottom of the fuel tank by the outlet at the bottom of fuel tank then a hose to the fuel filter then there should be a fuel pump then the lines fuel lines to engine! Because the electrical is in the tank it will cause a fire! To fix the problem with the float to keep the electrical out of the fuel tank on the fuel gauge you should put the electrical lines at the top of the tank with a rheostat then have the float turn as it increases or decreases which turns the rheostat and sends the signal 2 the Gauge so all of the electrical is out of the tank this is the safest!

The inline fuel system is incorrect and the electrical should not be in the tank! There should be filter at the neck then there should be a screen at the bottom of the tank where the outlet is then there should be a hose to the fuel filter and then from the fuel filter there should be an electrical pump the electrical pump should never be in the fuel tank and the electrical fuel pump is in the fuel tank which can cause I major fire! All vehicles have this problem and need to be fixed!

Parked the truck and went into the grocery store, came back out and started the truck. Then I noticed the steering wheel with an exclamation caution ️ light was on and had no power steering. Drove 5 minutes to my house and parked it. This could have been fatal if I was driving and the power steering had went out then. It's time to get this item recalled before someone looses their life!

My vehicle suddenly and dramatically accelerates when descending steep hills, without any depression of the accelerator pedal. When this happens, the engine RPM abruptly increases from around 1500 RPM to 3000 RPM or more, with a corresponding increase in vehicle speed. This typically happens in first and second gear. After I slam on the brake to reduce speed, the engine speed temporarily returns to normal (1000-1500 RPM) then the vehicle accelerates on its own again. This does not happen when descending gentle hills. This has been happening since the vehicle was brand new and is still occurring now, 6 years later. The dealer attempted to fix the problem when the car was new, but without success.

I have gotten 5 phone calls of people calling me and telling me they saw on the news that they saw on TV(the news channel) that there is a recall on my truck for faulty rear axles and a faulty rear drive shaft that has to be replaced. I"ve put in my vin number 6 times and get no answer of these parts to be replaced. I just bought a 2014 Dodge Ram, 1500, 4x4 truck from a dealer who screwed over me once before, but decided to try them again. I also caught the tail end of the recall on the news which said the same thing the others saw about my truck..So what is up?

The contact owns a 2014 Ram 1500. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the suspension failed, and the vehicle became lowered. While driving over a bump in the road the suspension independently lowered, and the vehicle became uncontrollable. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to raise up. A message on the display stated that the vehicle was unable to achieve ride height. The vehicle was towed several times to the local dealer however, the mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified however, no further assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.

engine manifold bolt sheared off, started "ticking" noise when starts.....my research has shown many complaints about the defective bolts and h\where replaced with improved bolts on other models,,..I called my dealership and they stated that the item is not covered because warranty expired (5 years) even though I have less then 80K miles...

I WAS DRIVING MY TRUCK WHEN THE POWER STEERING SERVICE LIGHT CAME UP AND THE STEERING WENT SO HARD I COULDN'T TURN IT, CAUSING ME TO ALMOST HIT ANOTHER CAR WHILE TURNING.

While operating my 2014 ram 1500 with approximately 76000 miles the power steering went out unexpectedly and without warning. There were no dash lights or indications of any problems with the steering system. Power steering was lost immediately Making it very difficult to steer and negotiate turns. I feel if this would have happened in the process of negotiating a turn it most likely would have resulted in a crash. I have not had the issue inspected or serviced at this time and no crash occurred.

My dash lights have been flickering on and off during the day and night and I cannot tell how fast I am going at night sometimes. Also my backup camera does not work, sometimes.

The vehicle was being driven home from work, when the truck went into battery saver mode and the power steering stopped working. I was moving forward and the steering became almost impossible to control. I am 6'2 and in good shape, so I manhandled the steering to control the vehicle, and I got the vehicle to turn, barely missing 2 parked cars. If I wasnt strong enough to turn the wheels, there would have been damage to property and parked cars. The only light to come on was "battery saver mode" on the Driver info screen. Problem was a faulty battery, but in same hand, there should be a better system in the steering if the power fails in the vehicle. This problem happened in Canada, but there is much better response to dealing with issues from this organization in the USA.

ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM GOES OUT WITH NO PRIOR WARNING WHILE DRIVING, LEADING TO LOCKING AND DIFFICULTY TO TURN WHEEL.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FLICKERS AND FADES. IMPACTS SENSORS - AIR PRESSURE MONITORS ALARMS COME ON EVEN THOUGH THERE IS NO ISSUE WITH THE AIR PRESSURE MONITORS, HAVING 2 DIFFERENT SHOPS CHECK ON THEM AND ADVISING THAT THEY DONT NEED REPLACING AND THAT THE SENSORS ARE GOOD. ALSO TRIGGERED AN ALERT THAT THE CAR WAS NOT IN DRIVE - EVEN THOUGH IT WAS IN DRIVE. THE TRUCK WOULD NO GO - I HAD TO ASHIFT BACK TO PARK, TURN THE TRUCK OFF AND RESTART IT ALSO IMPACTS IN CABIN LIGHTING - IT TURNS OFF AND WHILE DRIVING IT WILL TURN ON. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND THERE IS NO RECALL FOR IT. SHOP IS UNWILLING TO INVESTIGATE AND OFFERS SOLUTION OF REPLACING THE WHOLE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WHICH IS OVER $1000 USD FOR THE PART ALONE. THIS ISSUE IS ONGOING - AND IT SEEMS TO BE IMPACTING MANY MANY TRUCKS.

Hydraulic lifters seize up causing the vehicle to lose power. The check engine light comes on with code P0305 meaning the number five cylinder is misfiring this is due to not having enough oil going to the hydraulic lifter. I have mentioned this to the dealership and they said there is no recall on it but they have had a lot of issues and have parts readily available to fix this problem. The safety problem I am having is I do not have enough power to accelerate into traffic or highway entrances

WHILE DRIVING MY TRUCK ON OLD GA2 A TWO LANE COUNTY MAINTAINED GRAVEL ROAD. THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING QUIT WITHOUT WARNING WHEN I WAS ENTERING A SWITCHBACK CURVE.THE SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER STEERING ALMOST FORCED ME OFF THE THE ROAD. IT WAS PHYSICALLY ALL I COULD DO TO KEEP THE TRUCK ON THE ROAD. ANYONE WITH LESS UPPER BODY STRENGTH WOULD HAVE GONE OFF THE MOUNTAIN.

STEERING WHEEL STICKS ON BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT TURNS . SPOKE TO MY MECHANIC HE ADVISED THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE ON RAM TRUCKS WITH THE ELECTRONICS ON THE POWER STEERING . HE TOLD US THERE ARE MULTIPLE RECALLS ON THIS ISSUE BETWEEN 2013 AND 2020. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND ALL THEY WOULD TELL ME IS MY VIN IS NOT UNDER THE RECALL . TOLD ME TO FIX MY TRUCK AND IF IT FALLS UNDER THE RECALL AT ANY TIME THEY WILL REIMBURSE ME . I DON'T 2800 DOLLARS TO PAY FOR IT ..

POWER STEERING COMES IN AND OUT INTERMITTENTLY, STEERING WILL LOCK UP AND COME BACK ON INTERMITTENTLY. COULD BE A FATAL HAZARD WHEN COMIN OFF EXIT RAMPS AT HIGH SPEED AND OR TURNS OR SITUATIONS FOR STEERING TO BE CONSISTENT.

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROX. 50 MPH THE ENGINE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. THE WARNING LIGHT FLASHED SERVICE 4WD, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, AND MANY OTHER WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH AND ELECTRONIC SELECTOR. AFTER STOPPING, WITHOUT POWER BRAKES WORKING, THE TRUCK WOULD NOT START. I ALLOWED TO TRUCK TO SIT, WITH FLASHERS ON, FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. AFTER THE 10 MINUTE WAIT, THE TRUCK STARTED AND SEEM TO DRIVE NORMALLY. I WENT DIRECTLY TO LOCAL DEALERSHIP (SHARP DODGE IN PULASKI, TN). THE TECHNICIAN WASN'T ABLE TO FIND A "CODE" RELATED TO THE SHUT DOWN. THEY ONLY FOUND INDICATIONS OF "VOLTAGE OVERLOAD" NOT FURTHER DEFINED. THIS OCCURRED ON APRIL 8, 2021 ON HWY 31A, APPROX 0600 HRS NEAR THE CITY OF PULASKI, TN 38478. NOTE:. THE ENGINE /LONG BLOCK WAS REPLACED BY THE SAME DEALER AT172000 AND UNDER MOPAR WARRANTY DUE TO INTERNAL ENGINE ISSUES INVOLVING #5 LIFTER AND DAMAGED CAM SHAFT.

The contact owns a 2014 Ram 1500. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V757000 (Engine and Engine Cooling) and 20V475000 (Engine and Engine Cooling) however, the parts to do the recall repairs were not yet available. An appointment was scheduled for April 2021 however, the dealer later confirmed that parts were not available. Several other attempts were made to schedule the recall repair however, parts were still not available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

FAILURE OF ELECTRIC STEERING RACK AND STEERING CONTROL MODULE WHILE UNDER WAY WITH NO WARNING. FAILURE IS NOW INTERMITTENT, CREATING A RISK OF LOSS OF VEHICLE LOSS OF CONTROL AND CRASH.

OCCASIONALLY UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD BE LOCKED UP AND THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TURNED OFF, THEN TURNED BACK ON AGAIN TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. RECENTLY, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING WARNING LIGHT CAME ON UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE. THE STEERING WHEEL WAS LOCKED UP AND VERY DIFFICULT TO MOVE. RESTARTING THE VEHICLE DID NOT IMPROVE THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP THAT LOOKED UP THE VIN AND STATED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS COVERED UNDER 'EQUIPMENT SAFETY RECALL VB9/NHTSA 19E-077 ELECTRIC POWER STEERING GEAR.' THE DODGE/RAM DEALERSHIP WAS CONTACTED AND THEY CLAIMED THE PARTS USED IN THE VEHICLE WITH THIS VIN ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. VEHICLE MILEAGE IS APPROXIMATELY 107,000 MILES. THE REPAIR SHOP INDICATED THAT THEY BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE 'EPS GEAR, RACK AND PINION.'

WHILE DRIVING NORTHBOUND ON US411 WHICH IS A FAIRLY STRAIGHT TWO LANE PAVED ROAD IN GORDON COUNTY GA, I PULLED OUT TO PASS A SLOWER VEHICLE. WHEN THE ENGINE RPMS HIT 4500 THE TRUCK STARTED TO SHAKE AND LOOSE POWER. NO CODES WERE THROWN AT THE TIME. I WAS FORCED TO SLOW TO BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT AND FOR SAFETY REASONS COULDN'T COMPLETE THE PASS. I PULLED OVER INTO THE SHOULDER AND THE TRUCK WAS EXPERIENCING A VERY ROUGH IDLE. I TURNED OF THE IGNITION AND ON RESTART THE ENGINE FELT AND SOUNDED NORMAL. I CONTINUED HOME. THE NEXT DAY I STARTED THE TRUCK AND IT THREW A CODE. I TOOK IT TO THE RAM DEALER, AFTER DIAGNOSIS THEY SAID IT HAD A BAD CAM AND THE ENGINE NEEDED REPLACEMENT.

The screen on my instrument cluster flashes or turns off completely. Dealership said it’s a common problem. Over $1000 to repair. There is a similar recall on other Ram trucks in the same year as mine but mine is not listed by vin number even though it’s the exact same issue described in the recall.

The contact owns a 2014 Ram 1500. The contact stated that the power steering was working intermittently. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer where it was diagnosed with an internal short in the internal unit. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and advised the contact to have the vehicle repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 72,000.

THE AIR SUSPENSION RANDOMLY STOPS WORKING. I PURCHASED TRUCK LESS THEN A YEAR AGO. I FIGURED IT WAS DUE TO THE COLD WEATHER WE GET IN COLORADO. HOWEVER I DROVE THE TRUCK TO FLORIDA. HALFWAY THERE THE SUSPENSION STOPS WORKING. MAKES A VERY BUMPY RIDE, AND VERY UNCOMFORTABLE AND PAINFUL. ALSO I MANAGED TO GET PULLED OVER IN DALLAS AND ACCUSED OF A DUI BECAUSE I WAS UNABLE TO MAINTAIN A LANE. DUE TO THE SUSPENSION BEING MESSED UP. IS THERE A FIX FOR THIS

THE IDLE DROPPED TO 550 RPM S (REVOLUTIONS PER MINUTE) WHICH SHOULD BE 900 RPM AND THE ENGINE STALLED OUT. THIS WAS CAUSED BY THE CRANK CASE PCV (PRESSURE CONTROL VALVE). IT'S AN ENGINEERING DESIGN FLAW IN THE PCV- IT'S WORKING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION. THIS ALSO CAN CAUSE OTHER PROBLEMS IN THE VACUM SYSTEM LIKE BRAKE FAILURE AND IMPROPER FUEL CONSUMPTION, AND ENGINE OVER-HEATING.

I JUST LIKE TO LET YOU KNOW IT WASN'T THE CRANK CASE PCV IT WAS THE CAMSHAFT PCV THAT CONTROLS THE VACUUM SYSTEM!

Another fuel sending unit gone bad. Too many complaints and no recall yet? Happens to all ram trucks

POWER STEERING TENDS TO BE STIFF AT LOW SPEEDS AFTER VEHICLE HAS WARMED UP IT APPEARS TO SUBSIDE TIRES HAVE BEEN CHECKED SERPENTINE BELT HAS BEEN CHECKED FLUID HAS NOT BEEN REPLACED IN POWER STEERING PUMP WONDERING IF THERE IS ADDITIONAL COMPLAINTS OF THIS I HAVE SEEN ONLINE THAT THERE HAS BEEN FOR THIS PARTICULAR YEAR

POWER STEERING HAS JUST STOPPED WORKING WHILE I WAS TAKING THE EXIT TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY

POWER STEERING WENT COMPLETELY OUT ON MY 2014 DODGE RAM 1500. IT LOCKED UP ON ME AND ALMOST CAUSED A CRASH. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO AVOID THAT. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY DODGE HAS NO RECALL ON THIS AS THE MORE I READ ABOUT IT, IT WAS COMMON ISSUE ON 2013,2014 AND 2015"S MODEL YEAR. TO ME THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN IT LOCKS UP YOU CANNOT STEER THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE BATTERY LIGHT SUDDENLY DISPLAYED BEFORE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS IN THE VEHICLE FAILED, INCLUDING THE POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES, THE DASHBOARD INSTRUMENTATION, AND ELECTRIC WINDOWS.
