2013 RAM 1500 Air Bags Problems

My truck for several years has intermittently turned off all safety features and steering control, i.e. air bags, traction control, anti lock breaks, and power steering all turn off randomly which in turn disables the cruise control, towing functions, etc. In the past I could turn the truck off then back on and the problems would dissappear, Now the problem has escalated and is occurring at shorter intervals now turning it off doesn't work and its getting dangerous. There is various recalls for these problems with same make and years model trucks, but mine is not included. I've tried contacting the dealer but they basically say sorry we can't help you unless your truck is added to the recall list. It's just not right that 1000's of vehicles the exact same as mine have been recalled for the exact same problems but not mine. Thanks for your time!

My 2013 Ram 1500 has had issues with the horn not working when the middle of the steering wheel is pushed but sounds when the key fob is used to lock doors. The EVIC control on the steering wheel would also not work. This started in 2018 where the problem was intermittent. This was part of recall R36 where the rubbing of the steering wheel harness on the retainer springs could cause an electrical short and or inadvertent air bag deployment. I took my vehicle to Bill Volz WestchesterDodge, Cortland Manor, NY for the recall on 10-19-15 with 18,205 miles. I feel the work wasn’t done properly because the problem reoccurred in less than 3 years and about 6,000 miles later. The horn and EVIC has not worked in over 7 months. My concern is that I could be driving on a major interstate when my vehicle airbag deploys causing a crash. I contacted Chrysler customer service on 1-13-2025 and spoke to a representative. That person called me back on 1-14-2025 and stated that he referred my case #[XXX] , to a specialist who would contact me in 2-3 business days. As of 2-2-2025 I have not received any response from Chrysler customer service. I need assistance in correcting this safety issue. See attachments.

The airbag light turns on and beeps. The truck is available for inspection. A dealership told us it was the sensors that have gone bad. It is odd that all the sensors would go bad all at one time. Concern is if there is an accident, the air bags will not go off as intended. There is also concern that the airbags could go off while driving. Also it is beeping often while driving and it is distracting. There are no other issues. But we see that there has been recalls in the past over airbag systems on this truck. We are very concerned since the truck carries very precious cargo.

The contact owns a 2013 Ram 1500. The contact stated while the vehicle was being driven by a friend into the parking lot at approximately 3 MPH, the two front and side curtain air bags deployed inadvertently and injured the driver's neck. The friend was in the process of taking the keys out of the ignition when the failure occurred. There was a crash data log and air bag warning light illuminated. There was no medical treatment. The contact disconnected the battery and control module so no additional failure occurred. The vehicle was not diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 136,990

Air suspension system fails and allows the vehicle to drop to the suspension stops. This results in a very rough and unlevel ride. As there is no cushion in this condition the vehicle bounces horribly at road and bridge seams. Very unsafe...

BEEN EXPERIENCING A 'SERVICE AIRBAG SYSTEM' ACROSS MY INFO SCREEN ALONG WITH AN ANNOYING TONE. IT HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING, PARKED, AS WELL AS ALL FORWARD AND REVERSE GEARS. TODAY WAS THE FIRST OPPORTUNITY I HAD TO GET THE TRUCK INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE. FOUND THAT THE AIRBAG IN THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT HAS A FAULTY CIRCUIT. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE & SHOULD BE REPAIRED BY THE MANUFACTURER.

THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND THE STEERING RESUMED TO NORMAL BUT DUE TO THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DAMAGE, IT NEEDED TO BE TOWED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE POWER STEERING FAILED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS. THE AIR BAG FAILED TO DEPLOY AND THE SEAT BELT FAILED TO RESTRAIN HIM.

VEHICLE HAS 77,000 MILES AND @ 1000 MILES AGO A NOTICEABLE CHANGE IN RIDE AND HANDLING. RIDE HAS BECOME VERY STIFF AT ALL SPEEDS ABOVE 35 MPH. VEHICLE ALSO HAS A TENDENCY TO GIVE THE FELLING OF FLOATING WHEN CORNERING. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER 4 TIMES AND THEY CANNOT FIND ANY CODES TO TELL THEM SOMETHING IS WRONG? THEY HAVE CHANGE MANY PARTS, SHOCKS, IDLER ARMS, RUBBER SUSPENSION BUSHINGS, ETC, THEY HAVE ACKNOWLEDGED THE ROUGH RIDE, BUT CANNOT FIND THE REASON? I BELIEVE IT IS A SENSOR OR REGULATOR VALVE, THAT CONTROLS THE AIR SUSPENSION AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND WHEN CORNERING. THE TRUCK RIDES LIKE THE THERE IS EXCESSIVE AIR PRESSURE IN THE AIR BAGS TO SOFTEN THE RIDE AT VARIOUS SPEEDS,

MY VEHICLE IS PROMPTING A WARNING SIGN ON THE DASH SCREEN STATING "SERVICE AIRBAG SYSTEM". SINCE IT STARTED, THE SCREEN ON MY DASH STARTED GLITCHING A FEW MINUTES WHILE DRIVING OR IDLING, THEN IT'LL PROMPT THE WARNING STATEMENT AGAIN. NOT SURE IF RELATED, BUT EVER SINCE THAT HAPPENED, ANOTHER ELECTRICAL COMPONENT STARTED ACTING UP SUCH AS MY AIR CONDITIONING AND TPMS LIGHT. THE A/C COMES ON AND OFF WHEN TURNED USING THE COLD. HOWEVER, IF HEAT IS USED, IT SEEMS WORK FINE. THE TPMS I'M NOT SURE IF RELATED, BUT I KNOW ALL THESE SYMPTOMS FOLLOWED AFTER THE AIR BAG WARNING STARTED. I FIRST NOTICED THE ISSUE A FEW MONTH'S BACK WHEN I GOT IN THE TRUCK AND STARTED IT. A WEEK AFTER, THE A/C STARTED ACTING UP. I'M APPALLED TO FIND OUT THAT THIS WASN'T A PART OF THE AIRBAG SAFETY RECALL. I'VE LOOKED UP THE ISSUE AND FOUND THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHER CUSTOMERS EXPERIENCING THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR VEHICLES. SO FAR, I'VE BEEN FORTUNATE TO NOT HAVE AN INCIDENT YET, BUT I'M ALSO TERRIFIED THERE MIGHT BE ONE IN THE FUTURE. ANY HELP FROM THE NHTSA WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. *TR

I BUY THIS VEHICLE AND THE DEALER POST TO BE FIXED BUT I HAD TO WAIT 3 WEEKS TO DO THE REPAIR AND THE LIGHT IS STILL ON ON AIR BAG SYSTEM. SINCE WE BUY THE TRUCK IT WAS LIKE THAT. *TR

THE SERVICE TECH PULLED ON OF MY BOYS' SMALL FOOTBALLS FROM UNDER THE DRIVER SEAT AND FIDDLED WITH THE HARNESS AND SAID THAT IT WOULD PROBABLY FIX IT, BUT COME BACK IF NOT. (UP UNTIL NOW WAS BEFORE THREE YEARS OR 36,000 MILES HAD ELAPSED.) I TOOK THE TRUCK IN FOR THE RECOMMENDED 30,000 MILE SERVICE AND STRESSED THAT WARRANTY PERIOD WOULD SOON RUN SO CHECK AIR BAG LIGHT AND EVERYTHING ELSE. A FEW MORE MONTHS GO BY AND THE AIR BAG SYSTEM LIGHT AND MESSAGE INDICATOR COMES BACK ON BUT GOES OFF WITHIN A FEW MINUTES. I CALLED THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND TECH SAID "AS LONG AS IT GOES OFF IT IS OK. IT SOMETIMES JUST DOES A SELF-CHECK ON THE SYSTEM." AFTER A COUPLE OF DAYS NO MORE LIGHT. A FEW WEEKS AGO THE LIGHT AND MESSAGE INDICATOR CAME ONE AND WENT OFF WITHIN A FEW MINUTES. NOW THE INTERMITTENT AIR BAG SYSTEM LIGHT AND MESSAGE INDICATOR CONTINUES (GENERALLY UPON CRANKING, BUT OFTEN WHILE DRIVING). SOMETIMES MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY; SOMETIME NOT FOR A DAY OR SO. I CANNOT GET DEALER TO RETURN MY CALLS. *TR

ON JULY 22ND WHEN LEAVING WORK, THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN OUT OF THE PARKING LOT AND TOOK TWO LEFT HAND TURNS AND A RIGHT HAND TURN ONTO A BUSY ROAD. THE TURN SIGNALS WERE WORKING INTERMITTINGLY THE LAST TIME THEY WERE USED. ONCE THE RIGHT HAND TURN WAS COMPLETED, AND BEGAN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE DRIVERS STEERING WHEEL AIRBAG DEPLOYED. ONCE THE VEHICLE CONTROL WAS REGAINED IT WAS PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT OFF. THE AIRBAG LOOKED TO HAVE BURN HOLE IN IT AND THERE WAS THE SMELL SIMILAR TO PLASTIC MELTING. THE KEY WAS TURNED BACK ON AND AT THAT TIME NO TURN SIGNALS WOULD WORK AND THE WIPERS WOULD NOT STOP OPERATING. ALTHOUGH THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED AND DIVERTED ATTENTION WHEN IT WENT OFF, IT DID NOT FULLY INFLATE EITHER. THE DEALERSHIP WAS CONTACTED AND THEY RECOMMENDED FILING A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER. SINCE THE DEALER WAS ONLY A COUPLE MILES AWAY, THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THEM. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND FILED A COMPLAINT. THEY ADVISED THAT THE DEALER IS NOT TO TOUCH IT UNTIL AN INVESTIGATOR CONTACTS THEM, AND THAT I WILL BE PROVIDED AN ALTERNATE SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND WAS ADVISED THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO AND IT WAS IN THE HANDS OF A DIFFERENT DEPARTMENT THAT I WAS NOT ALLOWED TO CONTACT. AFTER NUMEROUS REQUESTS TO SPEAK WITH A SUPERVISOR AND THE ALTERNATE DEPARTMENT, I WAS FINALLY CONTACTED BY MR. KON OF SPECIAL INVESTIGATIONS ON AUGUST 15TH. HE ADVISED THAT THERE WILL BE NO TRANSPORTATION PROVIDED UNLESS CHRYSLER DETERMINES THAT THEY ARE AT FAULT FOR THIS. HE WAS ALSO UNABLE TO PROVIDE ANY TIMELINE AS TO WHEN SOMEONE WOULD BE ABLE LOOK AT THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP IS ALSO TAKING THE APPROACH THAT THEY WILL NOT OFFER A SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION UNTIL IT IS APPROVED BY CHRYSLER. THE R36 RECALL RELATED TO THIS SAME SYMPTOM WAS REPORTEDLY DONE BY THE DEALER IN THE SPRING OF 2016.

"TAKATA RECALL" I PURCHASED A CERTIFIED 2013 DODGE RAM 1500 ESPRESS ABOUT A YEAR AGO. THE DEALER PROMISED TO REPLACE ANYTHING THAT WENT WRONG WITH THE TRUCK WITHIN 3 MONTHS AND 3,000 MILES. I ALSO HAVE THE REMAINDER OF THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. AS SOON AS MY WIFE AND I DRIVE THE TRUCK OFF THE LOT, THE "SERVICE AIRBAG SYSTEM" LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH. I TURN AROUND AND GO BACK TO THE SALESMAN. HE SAYS HE'LL FIX IT BY RESETTING THE BATTERY. I TELL HIM THAT'S TEMPORARY UNTIL THE COMPUTER RELEARNS THE ISSUE. HE TELLS US IF IT DOES HE'LL TAKE CARE OF IT AND WE CAN HAVE IT SERVICED AT ANY DODGE DEALER. IT CAME ON ON THE 100 MILE DRIVE HOME. I TOOK IT IN TO A DEALER IN CHELSEA , MI. THEY COULDN'T FIND THE AIRBAG FAULT AS THE LIGHT MYSTERIOUSLY WENT OFF. ONE DAY AFTER PICKING UP THE TRUCK, THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES BACK ON. I CALLED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE AT THIS POINT TO TRY AND GET THIS RESOLVED. THEY GIVE ME A HARD TIME AND TELL ME I'LL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE FIX. I'VE CALLED THEM PROBABLY 15-20 TIMES TO GET THIS RESOLVED WITHOUT ME PAYING AN ARM AND A LEG FOR SOMETHING THEY SHOULD HAVE FIXED WHEN I BOUGHT THE TRUCK. I EVEN TOOK IT IN FOR A SEPERATE AIRBAG RECALL HOPING IT WOULD FIX IT. THE DEALER DIDN'T EVEN TELL ME WHAT THEY FIXED, INSTEAD THEY SAID IF I WANT THAT AIRBAG ISSUE FIXED THEY FIRST NEED TO DIAGNOSE IT TO THE TUNE OF $125.00 PLUS REPAIR COSTS. NEEDLESS TO SAY, MY "SERVICE AIRBAG SYSTEM" LIGHT HAS BEEN ON SINCE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK AND IS STILL ON UNTIL I SELL THE TRUCK I GUESS. WHEN I SAID THEY WERE JUST FINED 105 MILLION FOR NOT HANDLING RECALLS/ AIRBAG ISSUES, THEY JUST SAID SO WHAT. I SAID SO YOU DON'T CARE IF I HAVE LOADED GUN AT MY FACE THAT COULD GO OFF AT ANY TIME....THEY SAID THEY RECOMMEND I DON'T DRIVE IT UNTIL IT'S FIXED....THEY REALLY COULD CARE LESS ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS SAFETY.

TAKATA RECALL: I WAS RECENTLY INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT IN WHICH MY DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY WHEN IT SHOULD HAVE. THERE WAS SO MUCH IMPACT THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT AND REAR CURTAIN AIR BAGS DEPLOYED ON THE OTHER VEHICLE INVOLVED IN THE ACCIDENT. I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN PREPARING TO CROSS A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION. ONCE I DETERMINED IT WAS CLEAR I BEGAN TO ROLL AWAY FROM THE STOP SIGN WHEN SUDDENLY A SOUTH BOUND CAR ENTERED THE INTERSECTION WITHOUT IT'S LIGHTS ON AND COLLIDED WITH THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE OF MY VEHICLE. AT THE POINT OF IMPACT, THE SOUTH BOUND CAR WAS TRAVELING AT LEAST 45 MPH AND MY VEHICLE HAD MERELY ROLLED AWAY FROM THE STOP SIGN AND I SLAMMED ON MY BREAKS JUST PRIOR TO IMPACT. I WAS NOT TRAVELING MORE THAN 5 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLES COLLIDED. ONCE BOTH VEHICLES HAD COME TO A COMPLETE STOP I REALIZED I HAD STRUCK THE BACK OF MY HEAD ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW EXTREMELY HARD BUT NO AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT HAD TAKEN PLACE. THERE WAS SO MUCH FORCE IN THE IMPACT THAT THE FRAME ON MY VEHICLE WAS BENT. THE OTHER DRIVER WAS CITED IN THE ACCIDENT ANY MY VEHICLE SUSTAINED $16,000 IN DAMAGE. I AM EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED THAT THE SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND NOW I'M FACING THE FACT THAT I WILL HAVE TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE A REPAIRED VEHICLE THAT MAY OR MAY NOT PROVIDE ME WITH ALL THE SAFETY THAT I DEMAND MOVING FORWARD. I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE IN HELPING ME HOLD THE MANUFACTURER LIABLE FOR MY SITUATION AND RECTIFYING THE SITUATION. HAD I ROLLED INTO THE INTERSECTION ANY FARTHER THAN I DID, I MAY NOT BE ALIVE TO FILE THIS COMPLAINT.
