Potential Consequences:

The frame of the back window is cracking causing water to leak into the cab. After talking to the dealership they are saying this is happening with RAM Trucks that has not been recalled. He stated that the control module is located under the rear seat which is getting wet and causing problems to the trun signals, starting of the truck and lighting to malfunction which could cause an accident. There is also airbags located on the rear roof that could cause them not to go off. This repair is going to be between 2000 and 5000 bucks depending on the damage. I believe this should be a safety recall due to the chance of someone's life being lost.

The start/stop feature on the truck has been malfunctioning and the light has repeatedly came on. The truck has stalled on me while driving on two different occasions. I was in the middle of driving on a busy road and also a highway and the truck stalled on me which could of caused any vehicle to the side of me, or behind me to hit my vehicle causing an accident especially when I have both my kids in the car. The dealer allegedly fixed the problem but clearly it is NOT fixed. The problem has been diagnosed by the dealer at their establishment. They say nothing shows the truck stalling in the computer but I have proof. The truck shook, the start/stop light came on along with the check engine light and then stalled out on me both times. I opened a case with ram care and they dont seem to be of any help nor is the dealer. The dealer refused both times to check the “e-torque” battery that controls the start/stop feature for any failures or malfunctions and gave the excuse that theirs nothing indicating its the battery yet that battery specifically controls that feature. Ram has also recalled 131k trucks and wranglers for stalling. Ive brought the truck to them 2 times this month alone and they refuse to check that battery which 2 other dealers said was the problem. I would of brought it to the other 2 dealers but ram care advised to bring it to the dealer where I purchased the truck from. This is seriously unreal and if something happens or my kids get hurt due to an accident this is gonna be a major lawsuit. I need your help.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

Since the vehicle was purchased new in 2020, the check engine light has come on and the service throttle body message has been displayed 12 times. It only happens when I am towing a 5,500 pound travel trailer. When the anomalies happens, I loose engine power. Say I am traveling at 65 MPH. When the anomalies happens and the CEL and warning messages appear, my speed drops to 32 MPH. Most Interstate freeway systems have a 45 MPH lower limit. I am forced to quickly pull over to the emergency lane to avoid a crash situation. If I shut off the engine and restart it, my power comes back but the CEL is still on. The selling dealership has tried to fix this several times. The engine code that is always present is a P00AF (turbo boost control “A” module performance, I think over boost) and at one time a P0299 (turbo under boost). The latter occurred after I heard a loud “whoosh” . The turbo air hose blew off. So far the Dealer has flash programmed the engine control module, replace the turbo hose and lastly replaced the turbo itself. Not all of the anomalies have been documented by the dealer, as I am always traveling around the country when it happens and have called dealers in the city nearest me at the time and have gotten every excuse as to why they cannot look as it now. I am almost always able to resume my travels by shutting off and restarting the engine. When I arrive back home and take it in to be looked at, I’m told there is no codes and no history of a code. It can be several thousand miles after the anomalies when the dealer finally gets to look at it. FCA (Chrysler corp) is aware of the situation and has opened 4 cases for my concern. Case # 77583210 which they immediately closed, # 78338328, #79796818 and just on 06-9-2023 case # 86383024. The vehicle now has 21,726 miles on it and most of them are towing miles. The vehicle specifications state this vehicle can tow 12,000 lbs. I bought this vehicle for vacations and towing. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE!
