Defect Description:
STEERING
Potential Consequences:
The 4wd has never worked in my 2019 Ram 1500. I bought the truck in November of the same year, I tried to engage the 4wd with the snow that year and it would not engage. Notification showed service 4wd, I took it to a ram dealer in South Carolina where I worked out of town they had it for two days and they informed me they didn't know what was wrong with it. I then took it to the dealer at home they kept it overnight and installed a new actuator. It engaged the first time and then back to service 4wd. This time was different it stayed in neutral, I turned the emergency brake on and turned the truck off. The dial tried to return to park but couldn't so with the truck off and Ebrake applied I had to have a tow service pick it up and take to the dealer. I then scheduled an appointment with the dealer I purchased it from and they said they updated the software and it was working. I tried to engage the 4wd in the parking lot and it still showed service light. They kept the truck for two days and said a gear in the transfer case was bad and I had to pay $1,000 to fix it. But the same year truck has a recall for the same issue I'm having. I declined the service due to an active recall. About a week later the power steering wasn't working right. When I was doing highway speed and would turn left it was like I had to fight it back into the lane, but only while turning left. I then took it to a mechanic and he said the truck was clearly over steering from the wear marks and that the R&P looked good no leaks but it may be the rack. So I looked at the active recalls and sure enough there is an active recall for the same year truck for electronic power steering and the transfer case but when entering my VIN it says my truck has zero recalls? I really hope something can be done I've lost my job due to cardiac arrest and used my 401k to pay the lein off just to have all these issues. Thank you

The 4wd has never worked in my 2019 Ram 1500. I bought the truck in November of the same year, I tried to engage the 4wd with the snow that year and it would not engage. Notification showed service 4wd, I took it to a ram dealer in South Carolina where I worked out of town they had it for two days and they informed me they didn't know what was wrong with it. I then took it to the dealer at home they kept it overnight and installed a new actuator. It engaged the first time and then back to service 4wd. This time was different it stayed in neutral, I turned the emergency brake on and turned the truck off. The dial tried to return to park but couldn't so with the truck off and Ebrake applied I had to have a tow service pick it up and take to the dealer. I then scheduled an appointment with the dealer I purchased it from and they said they updated the software and it was working. I tried to engage the 4wd in the parking lot and it still showed service light. They kept the truck for two days and said a gear in the transfer case was bad and I had to pay $1,000 to fix it. But the same year truck has a recall for the same issue I'm having. I declined the service due to an active recall. About a week later the power steering wasn't working right. When I was doing highway speed and would turn left it was like I had to fight it back into the lane, but only while turning left. I then took it to a mechanic and he said the truck was clearly over steering from the wear marks and that the R&P looked good no leaks but it may be the rack. So I looked at the active recalls and sure enough there is an active recall for the same year truck for electronic power steering and the transfer case but when entering my VIN it says my truck has zero recalls? I really hope something can be done I've lost my job due to cardiac arrest and used my 401k to pay the lein off just to have all these issues. Thank you

Potential Consequences:
2019 RAM 1500 50,000 miles. About 2 months ago while filling my gas tank, the pump started clicking every .50 cents or so. Multiple gas stations and different pumps tried, the problem persisted. Only with very light pressure, I could get it to fuel about $10.00 before stopping. It would take upward of 20 minutes or more to fill about a 1/2 tank. Heading into the winter months, I knew this would become an issue with cold temps coming. I took it to the dealership and was told I needed to have the fuel tank replaced. Due to EVP valves failing. The fuel tanks were back ordered and not covered under warranty. 2 months and $1400.00 later I have a new working fuel tank. How could a part this expensive and with no real wear and tear not be covered under warranty?

Potential Consequences:
While driving approximately 35mph on snowy roads, the vehicle suddenly locked the brake on the left rear wheel causing the truck to slide uncontrollably spinning sideways into the oncoming lane (no on coming traffic at the time). The brake would not immediately release but I was able to get the truck to move to the shoulder in 4 wheel drive. After a couple minutes the truck made a clunking sound releasing the brake. the service stability light, ABS light, service 4WD light and service electric parking brake lights then lit up. Took the truck to my local Ram dealer to find out the rear brake dust shield rotted out within 5 years causing the dust shield to get tangled up in the braking system damaging the wheel speed sensor. My dealer said its a common problem and the wheel temporarily locking up is common when this happens due to the ABS system losing signal. Dealer replaced both rear brake dust shields and the wheel speed sensor at a cost of $680 (non warranty repair). Truck is a 2019 Ram with 42,000 miles
