While driving at low speeds the steering becomes difficult like the electric power steering is failing. It’s intermittent but is becoming more consistent. Feels like the power steering system is failing.
high pressure fuel system completely replaced after recall and it broke down again with same symptoms.
On [XXX] numerous brake system warning dash lamps came on on your truck. I also noticed that once this happened the cruise control no longer works. The local RAM dealer could not inspect my truck for several days so I had an independent service center test it and he confirmed the anti-lock brake module had stopped working. I believe he also noted that error code(s) were detected. yes, it can be inspected. I drive the truck but do so without the use of the anti-lock brake system. Yes, the problem has been reproduced, and l've visited my local dealer and discussed the situation with them and they confirm that this has been an ongoing problem for over 2 years. Warning lamps only came on as soon as the problem started, though at the time I did not notice a problem as I did not have to slam on my breaks and make use of the anti-lock/anti-skid function. The service center and dealer both confirmed that the malfunctioning cruise control was definitely part of the module failure. Part # 68228991-AD (replaced part # 68228991-AB. Local dealer is Matt Bower in Baton Rouge, LA. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The exhaust manifolds have cracked. This can lead to dangerous fumes getting into cab and extra pollutants to the atmosphere. It can also cause premature engine failure which could be deadly if it happens while driving. This is a known defect with this engine. Thank you
While driving my 2015 Ram 1500 with my children it suddenly with no warning stopped every electrical component went dead and was unable to restart it. Since it is a turn dial gear shift it had to be put in neutral using the pull handle. The truck was completely disabled including the steering wheel. This is a major safety issue as it could cause a serious or even fatal accident because I lost all power and all control of the truck with no way to safely get out of traffic. The dealership has had my vehicle since July 3rd stated that a RF module failed due to water damage caused by a leak from the rear glass/3rd brake light caused by a defect from Dodge. It is now August 11 and they still do not have the parts to replace the module that failed and possibly may have it on the 18th. This is a major safety hazard since there is no warning to the sudden power loss and shut down of the vehicle while driving. This is not a new or isolated issue with these Rams as there is currently a lawsuit in federal court in Michigan Norman v, FCA US LLC for this exact issue and Ram has issued a TSB S2023000024 in April proving they are aware of the water intrusion issue.
My power steering locked up while driving causing me to run over a curb damaging my tire on the front right side and possibly undercarriage damage

The battery warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer to be diagnosed. The mechanic determined there was a failure with the crank position sensor related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V475000 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was then towed to an independent mechanic but was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The failure mileage was 178,000.
I was driving down the road on Monday, June 27, 2023 at about 50 mph. All of a sudden the engine just seemed to go into limp mode and slowed down rapidly. The power was gone and the car seemed to not go over 35mph. The after driving another 1/2 mile I arrived at work. When I tried to turn off the engine and restart it was difficult. There was a long crank and then started. I got the car to the dealership and they say it threw a ode of P0336 which is for a Crankshaft Position Sensor and I needed a new Reluctator/tone wheel and crankshaft position sensor for $2,300. In researching the problem on your site I saw there was a recall but my VIN isn't included. Why? I also reviewed many Ram forums and I saw many similar complaints by Ram owners having the same problem and not being included int eh recall. It sounds like Fiat Chrysler gave the NHTSA some bogus info to limit the recall coverage. Its time the NHTSA force them to expand the recall to all EcoDiesels!. They clearly have not corrected the issue in their product! Its very unsafe at highway speeds and someone is going to get hurt.

My Horn does not work and my computer controls for Mileage, Tire Pressure, Oil Change, Diagnostic Information for the on board computer system does not work. . In talking to several other Dodge Ram vehicle owners they are having the same issues. in looking up this issue on YOU TUBE is is a manufacture's wiring problem with faulty or improper design. I have checked all of my fuse and they are intact. I was advised that it is a CLOCK SPRING issue and it is about a $485 to $502 dollars. SAFETY ISSUE IF THE HORN DOES NOT WORK AND THE AIR BAG.

In June of 2023 my ABS module went out part #68228991AD was told part was on back order till September 2023, this has continued so that as of this date I'm being told that expected part availability is April 2024. This part is a crucial Saftey part for the use of this vehicle. Beyond the lack of ABS breaking or traction control, the vehicle has lost cruise control, & brake control on a hill.
Total ABS system failure at about 58k miles. Dash lights came on and chimes ringing. Took it in to the dealer for service, replaced ABS module and HCU. I drove for a week and problem came up again. Dealer said that ABS module was bad but HCU was good. Truck has been sitting at dealer since June 2023. They said that no parts are available across the U.S. and that Chrysler is reengineering ABS module. Parts weren't going to be available until March 2024, now it's April 2024.

I believe that Ram and It’s parent company have intentionally not provided a recall fix for recall z46. If Ram refuses to provide a fix for the problem, and I’m forced to drive the vehicle that could stall and crash at any time is absolutely a safety hazard. I’ve contacted Ram cares and was told that if I’m not comfortable driving the vehicle, to just park it and wait for a fix. This company not only provides faulty and unsafe vehicles but then forces its owner to drive them with no fix provided.
Dear NHTSA, I am writing to express my disappointment regarding my experience with my 2015 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel, particularly in relation to unresolved recalls and inadequate service from dealerships. Last year, I began experiencing significant issues with my truck, ultimately leading me to Southern Motors in Springfield. They diagnosed the problem as needing a new engine, which was concerning. However, my vehicle also had outstanding recalls, including one for the fuel pump, which I was informed they did not address and ended up being the issue with the engine in the first place but instead they informed me I would need to pay for a new engine roughly $20k. I then took my truck to Hayes Dodge Ram Jeep Chrysler in Gainesville, Georgia. While they did perform the recall for the fuel pump, I was charged $400 to update the system—an action I believed should have been covered under the recall. After this service, my truck continues to run poorly and still displays check engine lights related to a crankshaft sensor, which I understand is also under recall (number X94). This issue has not been addressed, further compounding my frustration. Given the circumstances, I am deeply concerned about the effectiveness of the recall process and the service I received. I would appreciate your investigation into this matter, as it not only affects my vehicle but potentially other consumers who may be facing similar issues with Ram trucks. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I hope to see improvements in the handling of recalls and service quality from dealerships.
Filing a complaint because this recall has been open for over a year with no remedy available.
Back in September 2023 my brake light and ABS light came on in my 2015 RAM 1500. I took it into the dealership where purchase the Truck and had purchased a extended warrantee from the manufacture at that time of purchase. They told me that I needed a new ABS module but they were on back order. They have given many date where they were suppose to have them back in stock and all have come and gone. Since September 2023 I have checked with them and the date keep moving all the while my cruise control do not work. This is an issue, can you please help?
When driving the vehicle at 35 mph the vehicle jerks locks the wheels up and the vehicle revs up for a few seconds before returning to normal operational rpms. My vehicle has did this numerous times. Took it to dealership and been there for 2 months and said it was fixed the next day the vehicle did the same thing. Been an on-going issue for a year
Front Strap on gas tank failed while driving. Gas tank almost fell out and 2nd strap getting ready to fail. Completely pulled out of the frame. Also damaged drive shaft from strap rubbing into the metal.
ABS system alarms appeared June 2023, dealership says it is abs controller and needs to be replaced. There were none available. I have checked back periodically for last two years and they still have no clue when they will have parts available. The dealer has told me to continue driving the truck.
5.7L Hemi MDS lifter failure on a vehicle that has less than 96K miles. this is regarding the MDS system lifter and the cam shaft lobe slowly getting wore away until something fails. still available for inspection, i have not attempted to rebuild that cylinderhead bank yet. camshaft/lifter/valve failure at highway speeds could make the vehicle stall and potentially lose control if engine fully seizes or creates drag to the drive terrain. Dealership claims that the "tick" which is horrifically loud inside the passenger cabin on startup and less loud once the oil warms up. is "normal" for these trucks. I am planning on having a 3rd party mechanic give a second opinion before paying to have the engine rebuilt no warning lamps yet, I stopped using the vehicle after it was determined that the tick was indicative of engine failure on most Stellaris 5.7L hemis (challenger, ram 1500, etc.)
ABS control unit and ABS pump failure, repaired and more failures. Repair is to keep buying new expensive parts that will fail again. This ABS system is poorly designed or the feedback control component is poorly designed. It doesn't work properly, repairing it is not answer, parts are back ordered for months or years AND IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE, HIGH SPEED SAFETY, WHERE PEOPLE DIE DUE TO NOT EMERGENCY STOPPING CORRECTLY. GET ON IT. HOW MANY FAILURES DO YOU NEED TO SEE?
The contact owns a 2015 Ram 1500. The contact stated while driving at approximately 70 MPH, the rear axle suddenly fractured causing the rear passenger’s side wheel to separate from the vehicle. During the failure, the rear end of the vehicle began to fishtail, and the vehicle almost crashed into an oncoming semi-truck. The vehicle was towed to the local mechanic who replaced the rear axle. After retrieving the vehicle, the engine failed causing the vehicle to stall. The vehicle was towed back to the local service center which diagnosed that the engine crank sensor had failed. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The contact also indicated that while operating the vehicle, the DEF system malfunctioned causing the vehicle to drive at a top speed of 37 MPH. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer who reset the DEF system and the vehicle was repaired but later reoccurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The contact was informed that the VIN was not included in the NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V661000 (Power Train) and 20V475000 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The contact stated that the vehicle had experienced the failure listed in the recall. The local dealer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 140,000.
ABS Modular is malfunctioning and recommended to be replaced. I have been waiting 1.5 years for this part and continue to be told it’s not available. My check engine light continues to be on and my car does not function as it should. The part is identified as needing to be fixed but no parts available. I’ve called multiple states and made over 100 calls over the year. I am stuck with a car not functioning correctly and told by RAM that I just need to wait. Thousands of people are waiting for this part I am told and other years have been recalled but not my year somehow. This is dangerous and my hands are tied. I am putting my family in danger daily driving or am out 20+k on a vehicle I can’t drive. This is ridiculous and not a decision I thought I’d have to make with a well known company like Ram.
Approximately 1.5 years ago my 2015 Ram 1500 Antilock Brake light came on along with the messages service trailer brake system, service antilock brake system, and service electronic brake system. I have taken it to different dealers and auto mechanics to have it fixed only to be told that parts are no longer available. I was told by service department at dealer that I needed an ABS Module. I have checked with dealers for current availability of the parts numerous times since diagnosis only to be told that the part was still not available and that they did not have any idea when it would be available. I have been researching this problem and found this to be a common problem with Ram pickups. I have also found where a recall has been activated for 2019-2021 ram trucks with the same problem. This to me is a real safety issue that should be addressed and a recall activated for this and other older models with the same issue, as I have had a couple of incidents where I have had to apply heavy pressure to brakes to stop my vehicle only to have the brakes lock up causing me to nearly lose control of my vehicle. If this is not addressed, I feel that the issue could result in accidents, injury, or worse loss of life could occur. Thank you for your time.

Exhaust Manifold bolt on passenger side broke leaking dangerous exhaust fumes. Took 2015 Ram to Dealership for repair and told they have had to replace several exhaust manifold bolts on 2015 Ram trucks.
The contact owns a 2015 Ram 1500. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. Additionally, the contact was made aware of NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V406000 (Fuel System, Diesel) after speaking with the NHTSA Hotline. The dealer was contacted and confirmed that parts were not available for the recall repair and advised the contact to bring the vehicle in for service. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue.

I’ve experienced 3 separate incidents with this truck that resulted in the engine shutting down while in transit as follows: 12/6/2019: engine stalled when accelerating up a hill. Used momentum to pull mostly out of traffic lane. Towed to dealer where crankshaft positioning sensor was replaced under an extended warranty associated with the Ram Ecodiesel emissions related class action settlement. 5/21/2021: engine stalled while towing a boat up hill on the interstate. Had to cross right lane traffic to the shoulder causing traffic behind and to the side to swerve and honk. Just made it to the shoulder. Diesel fuel was leaking. Towed to local diesel shop where high pressure fuel line was replaced at my expense. This would have been replaced under the aforementioned warranty had it been towed to a Ram service center. 5/28/2023: engine stalled while towing a boat on the interstate. Coasted to the right lane and down an exit where I made it to the shoulder. Had it towed to the nearest dealer who reported the engine as seized and in need of replacement. Ram customer service will not discuss any financial assistance in replacing the engine or in the cost of an engine tear down to determine the cause of the failure even though it’s possibly related to the outstanding fuel pump recall or the previously mentioned emissions recall . In all instances, especially those on the interstates, I felt that I was at risk of being involved in or causing an accident as I had no control over maintaining forward momentum. I opened a case with FCA Customer Care (case# 86310172 ) but they will not share the case information with me for reasons of policy, so I’ve no documentation to upload other than the engine replacement repair doc from the dealer. The information below reflects the latest incident.
Rapid loss of coolant over rear of engine and transmission bell housing. Danger of overheating and fire. The cause of the rapid coolant loss is a common well known problem - turbo coolant pipe! Of course the small tube requires cab off the repair - design flaw!! Additionally, being a known issues and the part that fails is rubber, FCA has not issued a recall or TSB for the replacement of the rubber part with a much more durable siliconized part. My rapid coolant loss occurred on a busy highway and the vehicle required towing - not safe!!!! BIG design flaw and safety issue!!!!!

Vehicle spontaneously starts when unoccupied as in garage and continues to run. If not found while running exhaust gasses will infiltrate attached house potentially causing death. The reason for vehicle starting is a defective car-fob that starts when bumped or dropped. Dealership says it cannot be repaired. This has happened several times. Problem checked by and discussed with dealer service.

2015 RAM 1500-Consumer states "truck stopped going 75 miles per hour" on the highway. Consumers husband had to pull over to the shoulder & truck refused to start again. Consumers husband call for a tow. The tow trucks policy is one rider. Consumers son is disable and relies on father to drive. Consumer states: "This left my husband to the mercy to flag down a car and ask them if they could take my son. That may not sound like a huge deal, but my son's disability causes him not to know directions or place and space. The fear of getting in a car with completely and total strangers, hoping they would take him to Paducah was horrifying to him and me. He's still having fearful thought about that event. He chewed his finger nails so bad that the hotel towel was covered with blood from anxiety. It was completely and utterly ridiculous. Two days were spent trying to figure out what the issue was with the Truck. The dealership put in a new computer board, that wasn't the issue. We got charged for that part. After the final analysis we were told it was the fuel pump and it was on recall. The time estimation to fix the truck was given 45 days to 3+ month - if not more- as the part has still not been created for this recall. We had to rent a vehicle for a month, costing $1,900.00. I called the Ram customer service 6 times just to be told by a Kelly that she would not give me a supervisor as I was requesting that the computer part ($850) and the month rental ($1,900.00) be reimbursed to us 35 there is no ETA of when we will get our vehicle hack. Case #86107003. We later were told that it has been stated that sometime the vehicles catch on fire due to this default. That's very scary as my husband said he could smell gas. Since the "customer service" agents did NOT allow me to speak to their supervisor's I was left to basically deal with a very expensive and unresolved loss of our vehicle due to RAM. They literal have given us no assistance or time frame of when our truck will be fixed. I am requesting that our expenses of the computer board and the month car rental be covered, as this is a expense and hardship put upon us due to this recall. I am requesting that the $2,750.00 be refunded to us."

I noticed that every time I went out to drive my 2015 Ram 1500 somewhere that the steering would get hard to turn. This would happen on and off every time and seems to be progressively getting worst. I started researching the power steering figuring that I need fluid only to learn that the power steering is an electrical assist system. I then read more about the investigation and what could happen. I currently have not driven much and am scheduled to take it in to the dealership for repair.
I have a 2015 Ram 1500, my experience is not unique and this issue is well known online. The ABS module (Part No: 68228991AD) is no longer working and my truck has been having an issue with this for about 3 years. The Parts departments in dealerships will typically say that the manufacturer is "looking" for a new contract parts supplier and say that a certain date is upcoming, but it always gets pushed further into the future. I have been without ABS for a long time for this reason. Since I have moved around, I have been unable to stick with a certain parts department for an extended period of time, but I have had this part on order with the current dealership near me for over 5 months, with no status update other than its on order. This seems like a large safety issue to me and I would like the regulator to do something about this.
