Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I was backing up with nothing behind me and the truck abruptly went into park, applied the parking brake, and shut down the engine. Later, on the drive to work, the battery light came on and I had received a "reduced battery capacity" message on the display. The truck has the hybrid system with less than 9k miles. Emailing the dealership, they did not claim anything is wrong. Two weeks earlier no sound came out of the speakers and that resolved itself. So, I suspected something with software and disconnected the 12 V battery for 5 minutes and the fault went away. It is troubling that the vehicle shifts into park. It seems related to Investigation:PE24018.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
Came to a stop sign, waited for traffic to clear to turn left as I floored it started moving and then all of a sudden loss acceleration and notice rpm ramped up to 7k. As in was just coasting I notice only my rpm would go up but the truck wouldn’t move. Lucky I coasted to the side of road and shifted to park. Turned off car and then restarted. Drive home the remaining 30 miles which it seemed to work fine. Kinda scary thinking u can lose power trying to merge into traffic but lucky there was no one coming behind me only 7k miles on my 1500 but now I gotta be careful when pulling out into traffic and really sucks cause the reason I bought the truck with the hemi was for me to be able to accelerate fast ..

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
During normal driving conditions the vehicles air conditioning system and interaction pane malfunctions. The issue has occurred twice during ownership. First occurrence was after going over a speed-bump at approximately 1-5 mph. The second occurrence was when coming to stop to make a turn. In both occurrences, the air conditioner was set enabled and coldest, and fan speed was set to 2-3. During the first occurrence (March 15th, 2024 at 4:28 PM EST), the fan speed self-raised to 7; internal circulation was likely already enabled. The Front and Rear defrosters turned themselves on, and temperature self-raised to mid-warm to hot. Attempting to lower the temperature, fan-speed, and attempts to disable defrosters immediately fail. The visual indicator shows its being lowered or disabled, but immediately re-enables or raises. In the second occurrence was June 14, 2024 at approximately 6:25 PM EST. This time, the fan speed did not self-raise; instead, just the cabin heat raised and defrosters enabled. In both occurrences, the touch screen is clean and clear of liquids or debris. In both occurrences the issue ceased after approximately 30-60 seconds, and controls functioned without issue. No prior contact was made to the screen prior to these occurrences. No modifications have been made to the vehicle to warrant this failure. No check engine light or other illumination/warning appeared during the occurrences. Video of occurrences are available upon request by government or manufacture.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
For reference, there are only 4,780 miles on my vehicle. I was driving 20mph when my 2024 Ram Tradesman dash lit up "Shift to P to Start". Checked my gear and it said I was still in drive? I slowed down to park, and then it said "Press Break and Push Button to Start". Again, still driving (slowly luckily). I began to slow the vehicle to 8mph and the whole vehicle stalled and the dash read "Shifter Autocorrect Engaged" and it literally THREW my vehicle into park and engaged the E-Break. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle any longer. There are MULTIPLE instances with models as old as 2018 and as new as 2024 that this is happening. And not just at slow speeds. I have read multiple instances in people traveling on the interstate at 70+mph and they are crashing. My vehicle may be under warranty still, but my life is not, neither is my husband and children's lives. This vehicle is how we get places as a family and it puts all four of us at risk of injury or death. This is a HIGH risk glitch. I contacted the Dan Cummins dealership in Paris KY and they said they had NEVER heard of this problem? But it's ALL OVER the internet? And it hasn't been recalled? They said it would be 2 weeks before they could look at it and acted like it wasn't a major issue. I am furious. This is people's LIVES at risk. This isn't a camera malfunction, or a tailgate that doesnt lock. This is the engine shutting down then the E-Break engaging when driving and potentially flipping and spinning my vehicle out of control. Not to mention other problems like my driver side window glitching and not rolling up until I hit it two and three times, or the AC shutting down and blowing out hot air when the automatic hybrid kicks in/or the truck is half shut down at lights. But this? This is it. I will not drive a vehicle made by a company who KNOWS they have RECURRING problems and refuses to recall the vehicle for YEARS. It is hazardous to LIFE.

For reference, there are only 4,780 miles on my vehicle. I was driving 20mph when my 2024 Ram Tradesman dash lit up "Shift to P to Start". Checked my gear and it said I was still in drive? I slowed down to park, and then it said "Press Break and Push Button to Start". Again, still driving (slowly luckily). I began to slow the vehicle to 8mph and the whole vehicle stalled and the dash read "Shifter Autocorrect Engaged" and it literally THREW my vehicle into park and engaged the E-Break. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle any longer. There are MULTIPLE instances with models as old as 2018 and as new as 2024 that this is happening. And not just at slow speeds. I have read multiple instances in people traveling on the interstate at 70+mph and they are crashing. My vehicle may be under warranty still, but my life is not, neither is my husband and children's lives. This vehicle is how we get places as a family and it puts all four of us at risk of injury or death. This is a HIGH risk glitch. I contacted the Dan Cummins dealership in Paris KY and they said they had NEVER heard of this problem? But it's ALL OVER the internet? And it hasn't been recalled? They said it would be 2 weeks before they could look at it and acted like it wasn't a major issue. I am furious. This is people's LIVES at risk. This isn't a camera malfunction, or a tailgate that doesnt lock. This is the engine shutting down then the E-Break engaging when driving and potentially flipping and spinning my vehicle out of control. Not to mention other problems like my driver side window glitching and not rolling up until I hit it two and three times, or the AC shutting down and blowing out hot air when the automatic hybrid kicks in/or the truck is half shut down at lights. But this? This is it. I will not drive a vehicle made by a company who KNOWS they have RECURRING problems and refuses to recall the vehicle for YEARS. It is hazardous to LIFE.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
When driving the vehicle at speeds between 30 miles an hour and 45 mph the vehicle will jump out of gear into neutral. There are no warning lights that come on. Road conditions varied from dry to wet. I had to coast off the side of the road each time put the car into park and then into drive. This is a safety issue as there are vehicles behind me, and in front of me and I am only able to coast to a safe spot, the vehicle has been to two different Chrysler dealers and they are unable to replicate the issue. I am concerned for my safety as I often drive on highways, and I’m not sure if that will happen on highway. The last time that the vehicle did this it began to lose power and then went into neutral. The truck only has 3,900 miles on it. The first time it happened I had only owned the truck for 18 days. It subsequently occurred one month later, and a month after that.

WHEELS
Potential Consequences:
2024 Ram 1500. Approximately four weeks off the dealer lot new. Approximately 1,300 miles. The vehicle had never been involved in any sort of accident, hitting of a pothole or curb. As I was traveling down a secondary road at approximately 30 miles per hour, the rear-left wheel separated from the vehicle without warning. This caused extensive damage to both the Ram and another vehicle that was later struck by the wheel. This occurred at approximately 11:00 PM. Upon inspection of the wheel, we noticed one of the lug studs was sheared off. The next day we returned to retrace the route I took that night to see if we could find any of the lug nuts. Approximately 500 from the point where I exited the parking lot, we located one lug nut with the stud sheared off still inside. Approximately three miles up the road from that location is where the wheel separation occurred. We were able to recover four lug nuts within 200 feet of that location. I had only had this vehicle for four weeks and had not, nor had I any reason to have loosened or taken off any of the wheel components. Manufacturing defect seems to be the only reasonable explanation. I have in my possession five lug nuts, one with the stud sheared off. The vehicle and wheel are currently at a Ram dealership awaiting inspection by the manufacturer and insurance company. Our safety was put at risk because the vehicle experienced a violent jerking and lurching and could have flipped or collided into another object. The dislocated wheel could have killed the people in the car that were hit by it. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? I do not know. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Currently ongoing. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No.
