Drove my vehicle and then parked for one hour. Got back in and started it. Indicator light flashing for the steering wheel. I realized i could not turn my wheel. The power steering was out. I turned the vehicle on and off several times, and it "reset" itself and the indicator light was no longer flashing or lit up. Steering seemed fine as before. I drove it to the local dodge dealership (safford dodge in salisbury, md) to see if they could check it out; mechanic came out and said it was electric power steering, he had seen this before, and it was unsafe to drive it any further. I felt uncomfortable driving it back home or to any other garage, as it was subject to going in and out. They are currently repairing the "power steering gear rack," at a cost of $2500. I am thankful this did not go out while i was driving- i would have been unable to turn the wheel and could have caused a serious accident to my vehicle and/or others. I looked this up online and found over 100 similar complaints involving power steering issues in dodge rams. I am currently at approx 74,400 miles and have not previously had any issue with my power steering prior to monday. I am available to be contacted any time. I do not yet have any paperwork from the dealership regarding the repair as it is still there, but i can scan it and send it to the appropriate person once i get something from them.

Was driving home from church with my children in the truck when the dash lights flashes. It said battery power saver mode and then service electronic power steering. And then i started to drift towards the ditch. Was able to pull my truck off the road but it could’ve been an accident. I called my husband and he came to look at it. He happened to be at o’reilley’s when i called him so he picked up some things and came to figure it out. After learning their is no steering fluid and doing some online research he checked the fuses. Put his code reader on it and no codes. Turn the truck back on the light was gone and steering was fine. We decided he would follow me home. Drove 12 miles and had no steering again. My truck has 98,000 miles on it. I’ve already had the rear main seal/ exhaust manifold redone (dealer warranty), entire rear including calipers, brakes, ball joints, wheel bearings, and tie rods redone (dealer warranty), and the rear brakes including calipers out of my own pocket twice!! I’ve only had the truck for two years. Plus a few other miscellaneous electronic issues for my electrical ports, radio and dash lights, traction control, heated seats, and electronic braking system.

Sudden loss of electric power steering assist without warning or symptoms. Loss of power assist made steering extremely difficult. Vehicle is in an independent repair shop for an inspection and repair cost estimate. There was no warning or symptoms. Failure was sudden.

I was driving at high speed on the expressway and my electrical power steering quit working. I ran off the road and into the ditch because the truck was too hard to control without the power steering. I could have crashed into someone or injured myself. This is a very dangerous situation to be in if you are driving at any speed. If my wife had been driving it could have been fatal. Additionally, the repairs were over $3500. I will be selling this truck as it is too dangerous for anyone to drive. Sincerely, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.S.C. 552(b)(6).

I was driving down the road, fortunately in my neighborhood when i saw a brief alert regarding my trailer towing system before the truck completely shut down in the middle of the road. I was unable to restart and had to call a tow service. My mechanic stated it was a crank position sensor failure according to his diagnostic computer

The front fuel strap broke free from it's connection point to the frame, letting the front of the fuel tank sag towards the ground. It appears the connection slot on the frame has corroded and the strap pulled free from the connection slot on the frame. The issue could have been a lot worse if i had been traveling on the freeway buy luckily it broke on a residential street. The problem has been known to be found in 09-12 ram pickups. No current recalls for a 2014. A local dealership will be looking at it on friday june 18th. The truck can be available to inspect but i currently have no other means of transportstion, so i plan on getting the strap fixed asap. There were no warning lights or any other indication of the strap failing prior to it coming free. I heard an odd humming/vibrating noise, initially thought it was an issue with the tires, but when i pulled over on the side of the road to inspect what was making the noise, i found the tank sagging and the front strap was no longer supporting it. I was able to get underneath the truck and verify that the strap was no longer attached to the frame, the fuel tank is temporarily being supported by a ratchet strap that i installed myself.

Upon starting the vehicle, there was a blinking light in the instrument cluster which appeared to be a steering wheel icon followed by an exclamation point. When i put the vehicle into "drive" and pulled forward, the steering wheel was locked and would not turn side to side. I put the vehicle into park, turned it off, and then turned it back on. The blinking light was no longer activated, and the vehicle turned normally. I drove approximately 1/4 of a mile and was in traffic traveling straight when the blinking light came back on (same icon) and the steering locked up. I was traveling at a low speed and was able to turn the vehicle onto a side street where i was able to park it and call a tow truck. Upon some research in ram truck forums online, it appears possible this is related to the "eps" (electronic power steering) module on the truck. Other ram owners have experienced this same malfunction while driving, sometimes resulting in accidents. My experience appears similar to that of others who have described the intermittency of this issue. That very intermittency is what makes this such a dangerous issue that the manufacturer should be addressing proactively. I will not put my family back into this vehicle until the issue is id'd and repaired by the manufacturer.

The truck has loss of power steering occasionally at low speeds. There was safety recall for the electronic power steering and i have been told by the dealership that they will not fix the problem under the safety recall because this vin number is not on the nhtsa safety recall list. I need this fixed. This is a defective part installed from the manufacturer and they know that the eps is faulty. Reference number rc-vb9-19. Safety recall number vb9/nhtsa 19e-077 electric power steering, chrysler : all modles

The inline fuel pump system is incorrect it has electrical inside the fuel tank there should be a screen at the neck of the fuel tank then there should be a screen at the bottom of the fuel tank by the outlet at the bottom of fuel tank then a hose to the fuel filter then there should be a fuel pump then the lines fuel lines to engine! Because the electrical is in the tank it will cause a fire! To fix the problem with the float to keep the electrical out of the fuel tank on the fuel gauge you should put the electrical lines at the top of the tank with a rheostat then have the float turn as it increases or decreases which turns the rheostat and sends the signal 2 the gauge so all of the electrical is out of the tank this is the safest!

Parked the truck and went into the grocery store, came back out and started the truck. Then i noticed the steering wheel with an exclamation caution ⚠️ light was on and had no power steering. Drove 5 minutes to my house and parked it. This could have been fatal if i was driving and the power steering had went out then. It's time to get this item recalled before someone looses their life!

My vehicle suddenly and dramatically accelerates when descending steep hills, without any depression of the accelerator pedal. When this happens, the engine rpm abruptly increases from around 1500 rpm to 3000 rpm or more, with a corresponding increase in vehicle speed. This typically happens in first and second gear. After i slam on the brake to reduce speed, the engine speed temporarily returns to normal (1000-1500 rpm) then the vehicle accelerates on its own again. This does not happen when descending gentle hills. This has been happening since the vehicle was brand new and is still occurring now, 6 years later. The dealer attempted to fix the problem when the car was new, but without success.

I have gotten 5 phone calls of people calling me and telling me they saw on the news that they saw on tv(the news channel) that there is a recall on my truck for faulty rear axles and a faulty rear drive shaft that has to be replaced. I"ve put in my vin number 6 times and get no answer of these parts to be replaced. I just bought a 2014 dodge ram, 1500, 4x4 truck from a dealer who screwed over me once before, but decided to try them again. I also caught the tail end of the recall on the news which said the same thing the others saw about my truck..So what is up?

Engine manifold bolt sheared off, started "ticking" noise when starts.....My research has shown many complaints about the defective bolts and h\where replaced with improved bolts on other models,,..I called my dealership and they stated that the item is not covered because warranty expired (5 years) even though i have less then 80k miles...

While operating my 2014 ram 1500 with approximately 76000 miles the power steering went out unexpectedly and without warning. There were no dash lights or indications of any problems with the steering system. Power steering was lost immediately making it very difficult to steer and negotiate turns. I feel if this would have happened in the process of negotiating a turn it most likely would have resulted in a crash. I have not had the issue inspected or serviced at this time and no crash occurred.

The vehicle was being driven home from work, when the truck went into battery saver mode and the power steering stopped working. I was moving forward and the steering became almost impossible to control. I am 6'2 and in good shape, so i manhandled the steering to control the vehicle, and i got the vehicle to turn, barely missing 2 parked cars. If i wasnt strong enough to turn the wheels, there would have been damage to property and parked cars. The only light to come on was "battery saver mode" on the driver info screen. Problem was a faulty battery, but in same hand, there should be a better system in the steering if the power fails in the vehicle. This problem happened in canada, but there is much better response to dealing with issues from this organization in the usa.

Instrument cluster flickers and fades. Impacts sensors - air pressure monitors alarms come on even though there is no issue with the air pressure monitors, having 2 different shops check on them and advising that they dont need replacing and that the sensors are good. Also triggered an alert that the car was not in drive - even though it was in drive. The truck would no go - i had to ashift back to park, turn the truck off and restart it also impacts in cabin lighting - it turns off and while driving it will turn on. This is a serious safety issue and there is no recall for it. Shop is unwilling to investigate and offers solution of replacing the whole instrument cluster which is over $1000 usd for the part alone. This issue is ongoing - and it seems to be impacting many many trucks.

While driving my truck on old ga2 a two lane county maintained gravel road. The electric power steering quit without warning when i was entering a switchback curve.The sudden loss of power steering almost forced me off the the road. It was physically all i could do to keep the truck on the road. Anyone with less upper body strength would have gone off the mountain.

Steering wheel sticks on both left and right turns . Spoke to my mechanic he advised there is a known issue on ram trucks with the electronics on the power steering . He told us there are multiple recalls on this issue between 2013 and 2020. I called chrysler and all they would tell me is my vin is not under the recall . Told me to fix my truck and if it falls under the recall at any time they will reimburse me . I don't 2800 dollars to pay for it ..

While driving at approx. 50 mph the engine suddenly shut off. The warning light flashed service 4wd, check engine light, and many other warning lights on the dash and electronic selector. After stopping, without power brakes working, the truck would not start. I allowed to truck to sit, with flashers on, for about 10 minutes. After the 10 minute wait, the truck started and seem to drive normally. I went directly to local dealership (sharp dodge in pulaski, tn). The technician wasn't able to find a "code" related to the shut down. They only found indications of "voltage overload" not further defined. This occurred on april 8, 2021 on hwy 31a, approx 0600 hrs near the city of pulaski, tn 38478. Note:. The engine /long block was replaced by the same dealer at172000 and under mopar warranty due to internal engine issues involving #5 lifter and damaged cam shaft.

Occasionally upon starting the vehicle, the steering wheel would be locked up and the vehicle had to be turned off, then turned back on again to correct the problem. Recently, while the vehicle was stationary, the electric power steering warning light came on upon starting the vehicle. The steering wheel was locked up and very difficult to move. Restarting the vehicle did not improve the problem. The vehicle was towed to a repair shop that looked up the vin and stated that the problem was covered under 'equipment safety recall vb9/nhtsa 19e-077 electric power steering gear.' the dodge/ram dealership was contacted and they claimed the parts used in the vehicle with this vin are not included in the recall. Vehicle mileage is approximately 107,000 miles. The repair shop indicated that they believe the problem is with the 'eps gear, rack and pinion.'

While driving northbound on us411 which is a fairly straight two lane paved road in gordon county ga, i pulled out to pass a slower vehicle. When the engine rpms hit 4500 the truck started to shake and loose power. No codes were thrown at the time. I was forced to slow to below the speed limit and for safety reasons couldn't complete the pass. I pulled over into the shoulder and the truck was experiencing a very rough idle. I turned of the ignition and on restart the engine felt and sounded normal. I continued home. The next day i started the truck and it threw a code. I took it to the ram dealer, after diagnosis they said it had a bad cam and the engine needed replacement.

The screen on my instrument cluster flashes or turns off completely. Dealership said it’s a common problem. Over $1000 to repair.

The air suspension randomly stops working. I purchased truck less then a year ago. I figured it was due to the cold weather we get in colorado. However i drove the truck to florida. Halfway there the suspension stops working. Makes a very bumpy ride, and very uncomfortable and painful. Also i managed to get pulled over in dallas and accused of a dui because i was unable to maintain a lane. Due to the suspension being messed up. Is there a fix for this

Power steering went completely out on my 2014 dodge ram 1500. It locked up on me and almost caused a crash. Fortunately i was able to avoid that. I don't understand why dodge has no recall on this as the more i read about it, it was common issue on 2013,2014 and 2015"s model year. To me this is a definite safety issue. When it locks up you cannot steer the vehicle.

I had to have my exhaust flex pipe replaced pipe connects engine to exhaust system. I have done research on this problem on vehicles using 3.0liter ecodiesel. The pipe degrades and starts leaking exhaust into the cab. On line forums discuss this problem with all the vehicles that use this motor. 2014 all the way up to 2020 vehicles. The cost for me was $7,000.00 to have it replaced. The cost itself is difficult for anyone to come up with and i would assume you will look into this further. This is happening at very low mileage, my truck has only 43,000 miles. Some with much less mileage. Please look at this problem as a safety and health issue. The effect of carbonmonoxide poisoning and traffic accidents are high and what it does to the brain. The smell of exhaust gets into the vehicles weather moving or stationary. Thank you!

Saturday evening we were existing the interstate when i started to smell what seemed like a chemical smell. We could not figure out where this smell was coming from. As we proceeded down the highway, i started to get warm so i turned off the heated seat. When we arrived at our destination, i could still smell the something out of the normal. I begin to look all around. Smelling my jacket to make sure the kids didn't spill something on it, or just try to find where the smell was coming from. Finally, i turn around and realize my heated seat had caught fire. Thank god i had turned the seat warmer off moments earlier. Lucky for me, the truck did not go up in flames. The seat has a deep burn hole and my jacket (which was between the seat and myself) has 2 burns in it. I was unharmed but if it wasn't for me turning the seat off, i'm afraid of what may have happened. Our truck is still under an extended warranty and is now at the dealership to be repaired. However, i asked the dealership who is to report such things? They expressed that they were not sure, but they do not. We have an open case now through the dealership and waiting for further instructions.

I noticed a ticking sound and power loss plus my engine would not rev past 4,000 rpm. The first mechanic stated an exhaust header leak. He found three broken bolts and stated this is a very common 5.7l hemi issue (my research confirmed this). $1,200 to repair. The ticking was still there however. The second mechanic (2 months later) found a misfire on cylinder 5. Further digging showed the lifter had failed and the cam lobe was ground down. Metal shavings were dispersed throughout the engine. Best repair was a new engine $9,556. I've now spent almost half of what i paid for this vehicle on repairs. The second mechanic stated this lifter issue is very common too. He was surprised there was not already a recall on this issue. If you scour the web it's abundantly clear that this lifter issue is indeed a problem with both the 5.7l and 6.3l hemi motors. This could be a safety issue if the engine were to catastrophically fail while in motion on the highway or elsewhere.

The second mechanic (2 months later) found a misfire on cylinder 5. Further digging showed the lifter had failed and the cam lobe was ground down. Metal shavings were dispersed throughout the engine. Best repair was a new engine $9,556. I've now spent almost half of what i paid for this vehicle on repairs. The second mechanic stated this lifter issue is very common too. He was surprised there was not already a recall on this issue. If you scour the web it's abundantly clear that this lifter issue is indeed a problem with both the 5.7l and 6.3l hemi motors. This could be a safety issue if the engine were to catastrophically fail while in motion on the highway or elsewhere.

The plastic oil cooler/filter housing cracked and is leaking oil on my ram truck with v6 pentastar engine. This has been a known issue with this part assembly for several+ years already. It cracked about 3 weeks ago along with several thousands of other people across the united state during the cold weather that a good portion of the united states went through. As of tuesday, february 23, 2021 there was an estimated 37,700 back orders as per a dealership service tech on this part and as far as i know this is just the factory oem part from dealers, it doesn't include the after market part which is also unavailable and on back order everywhere! No one has this part. It might be available by the middle of march, maybe, the dealers are unsure. A lot of websites say they have it until you call them or they say t will be shipped in march or april, but who really knows that for sure. There is a long history of this part having problems and the consumer having to fix and pay for the automakers bad part and that needs to stop! As of right now there are some 37,700+ that have an oil leak and more than likely cannot even drive the vehicle due to this problem and possibly having to rent or buy another vehicle to get to work and whatever else they need to use it for which is more money out of the consumers pocket. Right now i cannot drive my truck due to this problem and i have no idea when i will get a part for it. Go online and look this problem up and you will find a lot of complaints and how long this problem has been happening. Attached is an image of the bad oil cooler/filter assembly. This part is on a lot of chrysler/dodge vehicles with v6 pentastar engines.

I got into my truck to leave from work. When i started the engine, the "battery voltage low" warning instantly came on. Just a few seconds later, the "service power steering" warning came on as well. At this time the radio shut off. My truck then said: "battery saver mode" was on, and the radio came back on. The power steering was completely off/not working, so i was very grateful that i was sitting in the parking lot and not driving while this happened as it could've caused a major accident! I limped along slowly with my flashers on, to an autozone to have them check my battery. They were very busy, so even though my battery was less than a year old, i simply bought a brand new one to see if it fixed the problem with both the battery (which should not have been a problem at all) but more importantly, the power steering failure. Thankfully, i had a nearly straight shot to get home, but it was very hard to steer the truck, and i'm a big guy, so for the average person, they would have most likely had to call a tow truck. I have started it up every day since then which was 5 days ago, and i have absolutely no power steering at all. This should never happen on a vehicle...Never. And i had zero problems with it, so why would it just fail for no apparent reason? There must be a recall for this; please advise. Thank you.

After returning home from a brief trip approximately 20 mi i came home, i then left my house driving approximately 3 mi when i was in the middle of a busy intersection, as i started to go through the intersection my truck suddenly died i was able to coast through the intersection, with no power steering and no assisted power brakes, using a lot of force i was able to bring the truck to a complete stop, on the edge of a busy road while i waited for help to arrive. I called a tow truck and had the vehicle towed to a local dealership, they told me a part that was called a tone wheel had failed. After doing a bit of online searching i see that this is a fairly common problem amongst these ram eco-diesels. Upon further investigation i find that certain eco-diesels ranging from 2014 to 2018 were being recalled for this part but my particular 2014 is not included the part is a wheel that a sensor looks at and times the fuel system with the other engine components for combustion when this sensor doesn't see the wheel it does not know where the rest of the engine is in its cycle causing it to shut off immediately giving it no power to propel itself to a safe spot. The recall w58 as it's known in fca ram trucks should fix this issue with a simple program change whereas the dealer wants to replace the part with a exact replacement which will likely have the same problem the next time we may not be so lucky. My fear is that if my wife or my teen age son would be driving it, they may not have had the strength to steer it and stop in a safe place i believe i was lucky. As i understand it the recall is a simple program change and eliminates the defective tone wheel system in question . I believe the recall should apply to my truck and proves that they know that they have a problem with this system.

I bought this truck used several years ago. The air suspension on it fails randomly, especially in cold weather. I just had the air compressor replaced in it and it failed again within a week. It happens most often when stationary, but i have had it fail on the highway when going 65-70 mph. Normally the rear drivers side falls to entry exit level and other corners stay up, but i have had several combinations of front and rear corners fail.

I was driving down the road when suddenly the dummy check engine light came on and my gas gauge went from full to empty. Computer is telling truck there is no fuel and will not allow me to access milage etc on dash board. Iv read online that this has been an on going issue with this vehicle. Why no recall? As this is dangerous. I cant even keep track of milage in order to drive long distance. I see you have to remove truck bed in order to replace junk parts. $1000 cost to the consumer. Ram is aware of this issue and will not help. Thank you for your time.

After receiving v08/v11 aem update november 18th, 2020 i am experiencing an average of 5-6 mpg loss in fuel economy (16.4 mpg mixed - down from 21.5-22 mixed) as well as experience severe acceleration lag. In terms of highway mileage i am struggling to get 20 mpg. Current ecm: 68306456ai current tcm: 68234053ah following the v08 emissions recall, drivability has been seriously reduced and has created dangerous throttle lag and improper automatic transmission gear selection. I would summarize these issues as turbo lag and improper shift mapping. When accelerating from a complete stop there is a 2-3 second lag before the vehicle begins to move even if the throttle is fully depressed. If you are executing a right or left turn into traffic or crossing an intersection this will leave you exposed to a "t-bone" collision. This behavior is even more pronounced when the vehicle has not been run (cold engine). Climbing a moderate hill shortly after pulling out of my driveway forces the driver to manually downshift the automatic transmission to first gear to get any forward travel. Again, the vehicle will rapidly accelerate after the 2-3 second lag. Once returning to "drive" at 15-25 mph the transmission will up-shift several gears and then begin slowing, dropping engine rpm to 1,000, again forcing a manual down-shift to second or third gear to maintain speed. The engine produces almost no power until the engine reaches 2000 rpm. All of this behavior began after the noted recall. I have contacted a ram dealer regarding this performance and was told that this is a common complaint. They mentioned that the factory was aware of this but has no remedy available."

I was driving my truck and all of sudden my steering locked up and a red steering wheel icon with a flashing exclamation point was on the dash board. I was unable to turn my steering wheel. When i restarted my truck it went away. The next day it did it again. Now after about a 2 weeks it the icon will not go away i can not turn my steering wheel at all. When i called the dealership they weren't aware of any issues so i called chrysler and they said that a recall wasn't available for the build date of my truck. But i've seen recalls for trucks before and after my truck. My truck has been parked for about 3 weeks because the repair price is about $2,400 dollars.

I was driving my truck down the highway at about 70 mph when a engine light came on and the truck just stopped working. It completely stalled, it was difficult to steer, but luckily i was able to pull over safely. I looked up the warning light and it said it had to do with the crank shaft sensor. The truck would not turn over and i had to have it towed. My truck has now been sitting at a dodge dealership for 2 months and they are saying it will be another month until they might get the crankshaft sensor in needed to fix it. Here is the thing, dodge is well aware of the problem. A problem that is so wide spread they literally do not have anymore parts to fix it. They have a recall for it for vehicles manufactured in the us with a work around until they get parts made but because my truck was manufactured in canada they refuse to put my vin in with the recall so they can use the work around. I have been in contact with dodge and have gotten no where. I have another recall that has not been fixed and they say cannot be fixed until they get the crankshaft fixed. This other recall they have known about for over a year and they would tell me to take it on the highway and drive it. Now they are telling me what a fire hazard this recall is.

This issue can happen at various times. I have experienced this issue when entering and exiting the highway. At highway speeds, the vehicle enters what is called "aero mode." the "aero mode" lowers the body of the truck to achieve better aerodynamics and fuel economy. After slowing from highway speeds, the vehicle returns to normal ride height. With the compressor failure, the vehicle is unable to return to normal ride height.

I have had this happen to me when driving on the city streets mostly but i have had it happen when i was getting ready to merge onto the freeway. I believe it has something to do with the transmission or with the electronic shifter.

I was driving down the road going 50mph the power steering failure light came on the dash screen and the power steering completely failed. I was unable to steer the truck and was very close to hitting another vehicle. I turn the vehicle off and then back on the power steering was working again. I continue to drive down the road and once again at a speed of fifty miles per hour the steering failed completely and again i almost went down into a ditch. It has happened several different times during several different actions. It's happened while turning while going straight while on the highway and while on city streets while stationary and in motion. I have taken it to the dealer and they said the entire system needs to be replaced at a cost of $2,400. My truck only has 50,000 miles on it and should not be having any kind of an issue like this at all. It is extremely dangerous and i am actually terrified to drive this vehicle especially on the highway. This needs to be recalled on the 2014 as it is on the 2015 and 16 rams. There are postings all over the internet of people dealing with the exact same thing yet dodge has refused to do anything about it. Please help make my vehicle safe for me my passengers and other people on the road.

The transmission did go into park. After that the truck started fine, the only noticeable thing is the cruise control no longer works. Fortunately no actual vehicle fire resulted from the incident. I am taking the truck in for service, the dealer had never heard of the issue, but will look into it.

There was no issue prior to this at any time. Absolutely no ability to steer vehicle. Fortunately, i was not driving when this occurred. This is a major safety concern for my family and myself . I do not understand how the recall for the 2015-2016 ram does not include 2014. This is obviously an issue with earlier year models. The estimate to repair this malfunction was $2400 ! Dodge needs to step up and take care of their customers complaints! No way can a recalled part on newer models not be issued for all models containing the equipment?!? It's unbelievable that someone has to lose their life before something is corrected!

Most comments say around 35k to 60k miles on ram trucks, the check engine light will come on and the fuel gauge drops to zero. At most mechanic shops, the price is around $800 for the repair. The repair consists of two options.... 1) drop the fuel tank from under the truck and replace the fuel pump w/fuel sensor. 2) unbolt the bed and back bumper in order to raise the bed completely and replace the fuel pump w/fuel sensor. This is a minor issue and happening all of the time. It's very expensive and this may have to me done every 50k miles or so. *tr
