Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Following completion of the Y78 (high-pressure fuel pump) and XQ1 (emissions) recall repairs in April 2024, our 2019 Ram 2500 immediately began experiencing misfires, fuel system issues, and ongoing performance problems. These symptoms have persisted for over a year and have never been resolved despite repeated service visits and escalations. The vehicle suffered multiple HPFP failures, including one that caused fuel to leak into the crankcase, resulting in approximately 19 quarts of fuel-contaminated engine oil. Despite technical service bulletins calling for specific system flushes and tests post-repair, the original dealership did not follow these protocols or provide documentation confirming that the required inspections (fuel pressure, contamination checks, EGR/DPF/DEF system functionality) were ever completed. A new dealership confirmed the presence of metal debris after the fuel filter, suggesting the system was still contaminated even after the prior recall-related flush and HPFP replacements. They also found non-functional emissions components covered under XQ1, including a failed DPF urea pump and a faulty NASA pressure sensor. These failures were not documented or addressed by the original repair facility. Despite these clear safety risks, the recall is considered “completed,” leaving us with a vehicle that is still experiencing symptoms consistent with the original recall condition. The failure to properly inspect, document, and address these defects has placed our safety at risk and caused prolonged loss of vehicle use. The issue, confirmed by a 2nd authorized dealership, identified fuel contamination & failure in multiple components of the emissions systems. The check engine light appeared prior to the initial failure and has recurred each time the vehicle was returned after service. Given the continued presence of recall-related symptoms and the lack of proper inspection & documentation, this unresolved recall should be reopened and investigated

Potential Consequences:
Front parking sensors always being disabled due to something. Keeps saying wipe sensors. Even after going through wash bays. Tailgate has been opening on its own multiple times while driving, while going through car wash, and just sitting still. Try to close it, and it pops back open instantly. Have to do this several times and hope it stays closed. Now the tailgate won't open at all via the handle. You must use the remote or in cab button. What's annoying and dangerous is it opening while hauling items and it opens with out you knowing driving down the road. I have lost items on the highway a few times. Furthermore, the fact that there is no warning device on the dash to indicate it's open is a very serious issue. With these electronic tailgates, it should be a standard that there is a open gate indicator to warn drivers. It's there for every other door, why not the bed door?

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
The sway bar keeps disconnecting or becomes unoperatable during extreme cold days. It's like it becomes frozen. You have to wait until the temperature warms up and it will go away. How is one supposed to use this on the Power Wagon in places where we get cold weather, and need to travel off road and utilize the sway bar disconnect normally if it keeps not being available to disconnect in cold weather. It has been in dealership several times for this and repaired twice by replacement. The dealership cant figure out why it happens so they just replaced the parts and send you on your way after waiting weeks to get fixed.
