Recall Date: Dec 20, 2017
Safety Issue:

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Ram 3500 Cab Chassis with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of less than 10,000 lbs, 2011-2017 Ram 3500, 4500 and 5500 Cab Chassis vehicles, 2009-2017 Ram 1500 and 2010-2017 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickup trucks, all equipped with a column shifter.

Potential Risk:
Being able to shift the transmission without pushing the brake pedal and/or without a key in the ignition can increase the risk of an unintended vehicle rollaway that may result in personal injury or a crash.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM A USED CAR DEALER. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES SO FAR. SOMETIMES WHEN PUTTING VEHICLE IN DRIVE OR REVERSE, IT WILL LOCK TRANSMISSION IN PARK. A WARNING FLASHES THAT VEHICLE IS NOT IN PARK. NO KIDDING, I'M TRYING TO DRIVE AWAY, BUT CAN'T. I MADE A 3 POINT TURN ON A BUSY STREET AND ENDED UP BLOCKING TRAFFIC. AFTER 10 MINUTES OF TRYING SEVERAL THINGS IF FINALLY STARTED WORKING AGAIN. ONCE, I PUT IT IN REVERSE, STARTED BACKING UP OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, PUSHED THE BRAKE A FEW TIMES, THEN SUDDENLY IT LOCKED UP IN THE STREET. AFTER 10 TO 15 MINUTES OF RESTARTING TRUCK, IT EVENTUALLY STARTED WORKING AGAIN. IF SOMEONE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WASN'T PAYING ATTENTION, THEY WOULD HAVE PLOWED INTO ME BOTH TIMES. ONE OTHER TIME I WENT TO START THE VEHICLE IN A PARKING SPACE AND COULDN'T DRIVE ANYWHERE FOR 15 MINUTES UNTIL IT STARTED WORKING. I HAVEN'T SPOKEN TO ANYONE AT THE DEALER YET, BUT I WILL SOON. FROM RESEARCH I HAVE DONE SO FAR IT SEEMS TO BE THE SHIFT INTERLOCK SOLENOID. SO FAR, EACH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED TO SHIFT GEARS. THE BIG PROBLEM IS WHERE IT STOPS IS A SAFETY CONCERN. UNTIL I CAN GET THIS LOOKED AT, I WILL NEED TO PLAN WHERE I PARK OR TURN AROUND, SO I DON'T BLOCK TRAFFIC.

HOWEVER, JUST A FEW WEEKS LATER AS I WAS PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY AT HOME I NOTICED SMOKE BARRELING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I IMEDIATELY TRIED TO SHUT IT OFF AND WHEN I DID IT WOULD REV UP HIGHER INSTEAD OF SHUTTING OFF. I GOT IT TO SHUT OFF FINALLY AND LEFT IT SITTING THERE OVERNIGHT UNTIL I COULD GET A TOW TRUCK TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHERE I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS PROBLEM IS NOW SO COMMON THAT THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER AND NO IDEA OF WHEN THEY WILL BE ABLE TO GET IT. NOW ITS 3 WEEKS LATER AND I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN MY TRUCK BACK.

Corrective Action:

I TOOK MY TRUCK INTO A DEALER BECAUSE THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WOULDN'T CLEAN ITSELF. I FOUND OUT THERE WERE RECALLS PERTAINING TO THIS AND THEY WERE HANDLED AS FAR AS I KNEW.
