2022 RAM 1500 Engine Problems

The same issues related to NHTSA Preliminary Evaluation PE24018. Engine stall while stopped at a red light on, battery warning light on, vehicle voltage gauge extreme low, auto start light came on. It took several tries to get the truck started again. This has happened SEVERAL times since purchasing the vehicle in early 2022. Sometimes the check engine light comes on. Once it took several hours for the vehicle to restart.

The MGU on my Ram 1500 failed while driving down a main road in my town. A rattling noise started and the check engine light turned on and I called the dealership that same day to have it serviced. The dealership could not get me in for a few days so I did not drive the truck again until the day I could take it in. On my way to the dealership I got a half mile down the road from my house and all sorts of warning lights started flashing and the truck turned the emergency brake on itself as I was driving down the road. This put in a lot of danger because I was stuck and couldn’t get the car to start or even shift anymore and was stuck in the roadway. I had the truck towed to the dealership and they said this has been a common issue with the Ram Etorque engines, so the part is on back order and will take 7 months to get replacement. I feel if Ram knows this is a common issue for such a major component leading to such potential danger, they should recall this vehicle.

While looking at preliminary evaluation reports, I noticed there is one for the same problem I've had a few times now. My engine stalled at low speed, put it self in park, applied the parking brake and the warning light for battery problems came on. I had to shut the truck down and restart it. This is at least the 3rd time it's happened. This is going to kill someone eventually. It's always happened to me after I came to a complete stop at a stop sign and am moving in to an intersection. I'm stuck there for a few seconds while cars are coming at me. Once they came very close to hitting me. The truck stayed in this mode until I got home and shut it off. I turned it back on the next day and it has been fine since. The photo I attached is of the low voltage notification the most recent time it occurred.

Engine stalled while driving at low speeds told me shift into park with no warning lights or messages at all. Got it started again and then stalled out again while I was trying to accelerate. I pulled over and it wouldn’t start right away but eventually I was able to get it started back up to drive it home. Could it be a software issue in the PCM

While coming to a stop the truck shut off. Not stop/ start. The engine shut off truck was still in drive, and emergency brake got engaged. Had to put the truck in park then I could start the engine. Then disabled emergency brake.

Turning corner, moving at slow speed. Engine shut off unexpectedly, parking brake auto-applied, truck shifted to park. Stuck sitting in traffic lane, VERY unsafe! Was able to restart truck and disable parking brake and resume driving but this was a very dangerous situation had there been more traffic.

I am in need of assistance with my most recent purchase of a 2025 Ram Truck with less than 3000 miles of utilization. After driving the vehicle for 45 minutes something didn’t seem right with the transmission. A multitude of error messages popped up on the cluster and the truck ended up in “limp mode” meaning it would not move. The Engine light comes on intermittently and I have legitimate concerns about the reliability and drive-ability of the brand new vehicle. When operating the vehicle in Round-abouts the vehicle looses the ability to accelerate and seems to lose propulsion which is a valid safety concern as well. The vehicle was returned to the Dealer for service and they have not addressed the issue only stating Chrysler Engineering has not yet determined corrective actions.

Both Exhaust Manifolds/Bolts Had to be repaired, one manifold was warped and one cracked. Concerned about the risk and symptoms of CO poisoning. Took it to a repair shop who confirmed and repaired the vehicle. Have spoken with 3 other people who have had similar issues on their trucks.

2022 Ram 1500 5.7L eTorque Stalling mild-hybrid HEMI would shut off unexpectedly while traveling at low speeds, prompting the vehicle to shift into park and engage the emergency brake. intermittent ability to restart. the battery fault symbol lighting up.

I own a 2022 Ram 1500 Bighorn with approximately 84,000 miles. This vehicle has repeatedly experienced a severe safety defect that began around 20,000 miles. On four separate occasions, the truck has suddenly decelerated in traffic without warning, would not shift out of gear, and in some cases would not shut off even when pressing the start/stop button. During the most recent incident, I was unable to pull over safely because the powertrain locked up, putting myself and surrounding drivers at extreme risk. My wife and I as well as a good Samaritan stranger almost got ran over while checking to see what's wrong. Police showed up and called for a tow truck, since the incident was happening in a state hwy. Each time I brought the truck to the dealership, I showed photos and videos of the issue, but the dealership claimed they could not reproduce it. Now the dealership is telling me I must pay $1,127 just for them to look inside the transmission, and potentially $2,800–$11,000 for repairs. This is a safety-critical defect that began well within the warranty period and has progressively worsened. A sudden loss of power and inability to control the vehicle is dangerous and could result in a crash, injury, or death. I believe this issue should be investigated for a recall or manufacturer responsibility due to multiple reports of similar failures in Ram 1500 models. I have videos of the incidents in 2025 at 80k miles, and a video in 2024 at 43k miles that show the live incidents.

eTorque system is failing. Last week when stopped for a red light my truck stalled and would not advance when I applied the accelerator once the light turned green. My vehicle is supposed to ¨wake up¨upon touching the accelerator after going on ¨sleep mode¨whenever stopped. This did not happen and I was nearly rear ended by the vehicle behind me when my vehicle did not engage properly when applying the accelerator to move forward.

i was driving my truck in a parking lot going roughly 10MPH when the truck slammed on the Emergency brakes. the check Engine light started flashing as well as truck going into power save mode. I've had the truck checked and looked at at a ram dealer in Barstow CA for the same issue. they said they fixed it. how ever the same issue just happened again i filed a complaint that time as i was almost rear ended reference number 11688552 on 19 September 2025

I was stopped at a light and my dash light started beeping and flashing at random and the truck just shut off. My parking break got randomly engaged and the truck went back to P mode even though it was in drive prior. I turned the truck back on and the break wouldn’t release and I couldn’t turn the knob to drive. Had to turn it off again and after about 2 minute it left me drive again. Second time and I just bought this truck.

The contact owned a 2022 Ram 1500. The contact stated that while driving, the engine compartment caught fire. The contact also stated that the vehicle lost motive power, and multiple warning lights illuminated. The contact reported that the entire vehicle became engulfed in flames, and the fire was extinguished by the local fire department. A police report was not filed. The contact did not sustain any physical injuries but experienced smoke inhalation and a nosebleed; however, no medical attention was provided. The dealer was contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The vehicle was destroyed. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was opened. The approximate failure mileage was 82,000.

Mileage: 82,000

The engine shut off while driving today. I was turning a corner at slow speed, and the engine shut off, shifted into PARK, applied the emergency brake, and shows a battery warning on the dashboard. I have not taken the vehicle to the dealer, as it just occurred this morning.

The vehicle shuts off and throws it in emergency park while im driving or slowing down and will stall this can cause a major accident for me and my kids.

Truck slows down and eventually loses power in middle of driving. All electrical goes out- have to wait, turn off and turn on again. Also, Scan found POAEE-00 & POBD4-00 check engine light on at 60,100

The low voltage light came on. Voltage was at 11.5V. I continued driving. Voltage dropped below 9V. I pulled into a parking lot. At low speed, the power steering shut down, braking assist, parking sensors, and other functions shut down and the vehicle stalled. Vehicle automatically shifted to Park and engaged the electronic parking brake. Car would no re-start and was towed to the dealer. Car is currently at the dealer with a diagnosis to replace the 12V battery as a first step. I am concerned to drive the vehicle based on similar consumer complaints related to PE24018. If root cause is not addressed (eg, only replacing 12V battery), I feel my safety is at risk if the vehicle shuts down again in a situation where I was unable to pull off the road before the vehicle shut itself down due to low voltage.

Dodge has a "safety" feature to keep the vehicle from driving off if the driver exits the vehicle with it in gear. The safety mechanism detects the seatbelt undone, the driver seat sensor and the driver door open. If someone gets out of the vehicle while it is in Drive, the parking brake is automatically applied, the engine put in park then powered off. My problem is this "safety" mechanism has been faulty from day one and the vehicle randomly puts the parking break on or turns off the engine, while I am in the driver seat, with my seatbelt on, and the driver door shut. This has left me stranded for several minutes in various places including half-in dangerous intersections. Dodge denies there is any problem and refuses to look at it. When I take it in they just park it in their back lot for 3-4 weeks without ever moving it then say it all checked out fine. I have been complaining for two years. I recently found a law firm with pending litigation for this issue. https://www.newsom.law/ram-stalling.html#:~:text=%E2%80%8BNewsom%20Law%20PLC%20is,without%20warning%20while%20in%20motion

When driving down the road, randomly the vehicle will derate and allow for 20 mph max for a short time, at times during this "derate" section, the vehicle will apply the park brake and shut off. I took the issue to the dealership, advised me to replace injector. Replaced one injector, brought home had same issue, over fueling on 2 separate injectors, installed all 7 remaining injectors (at my expense). Issue still arises. Brought back to the repairing dealer, plugged computer in, different error code arose, made an appointment to bring back on the following week. Drove 2 miles down the highway, unit would not drive over "limp mode" Service manager drove it confirming issues, had loaner car for several weeks, tried trading it in, dealership would offer me half of what paid 6 months prior. After some research, this is a known issue with this model vehicle and there is a "stop sale" on the part. Gave loaner vehicle back to dealership, continue to drive my Ram 1500 with known issue and random shutting down. Work order still open at dealership, Minnesota Truck Headquarters in St Cloud MN 320-230-6064. Cole in Service is the contact, he has been very great to work with.

On September 11, I remember because of the date, I was coming up to traffic on Flamingo heading east to Nellis Rd. As I started to brake the truck suddenly accelerated rapidly. I slammed on the brakes and barely stopped in time to not rear end the car ahead of me. I put it into park, then put it into drive and I made it home. This happened again yesterday October 6 as I came through the Carls drive through. Had to slam on my brakes again to stop.

Complaint Summary My 2022 Ram 1500 has a recurring safety issue where the engine shuts off unexpectedly after coming to a complete stop and then attempting to accelerate. This typically occurs at stop signs. When it happens, the dashboard flashes warnings, the emergency brake sometimes engages, and the truck prompts me to “apply brake and push start button.” I’ve nearly been rear-ended due to the sudden loss of power. Safety Concerns This issue poses a serious safety risk. The truck stalls in traffic, leaving me vulnerable to collisions. The unpredictability of the failure makes it difficult to drive with confidence, especially when transporting my family. Request for Action I urge NHTSA to investigate this issue further and work with Stellantis (Ram’s parent company) to identify the root cause and issue a recall or software fix. Owners deserve a safe and reliable vehicle, and this defect undermines that trust.

Over the three years of ownership we have had four occurrences of random stalling when taking left turns, where the engine stalls out, and the emergency parking brake engages. This can easily be a life threatening occurrence as it happens in the middle of the intersection during the left turn and it takes time to confirm the car is turned off, then need to disengage the emergency brake and THEN restart the car, all while stuck in the middle of an intersection. We reported this to multiple dealerships, the one we purchased at and the ones giving us service. The Joe Ricci's Marlette Chrysler Dodge dealership ran the diagnostic test and did not find any error messages. This problem keeps occurring and needs a recall before more people our hurt and/or killed.

The vehicle stalled randomly and applied the emergency break the and shut the truck off in the middle of the road I had to wait almost 10 minutes for the truck to even turn back on, this almost caused an accident luckily, the car behind me wasn’t following too close.

Bucking during braking specifically when downshifting between 2nd and 1st gear. The dealer was able to replicate and confirmed by the dealer and manufacturer to have an issue. Numerous repairs with the vehicle remaining with the dealer from May 2025-August 2025. No resolution was found dealer stated "it was under further investigation by the manufacturer you must collect your vehicle". All paperwork attached starting May14, 2025 after issues arose.

2022 Hemi eTorque cause sudden engine stalling while driving, followed by the truck automatically applying the parking brake and shifting into park. Tow driver couldn't get the truck on the flat bed, had to drag onto the tow truck and drag off the tow truck. Couldn't get it out of park or get the brakes to release. We could have died! No part available for 45 days so I can't upload a repair invoice as of yet.

While driving my vehicle broke down in the middle of the road and locked up the engine because of the etorque generator. I was blocking traffic and had to be assisted by police and then towed. This is the second time this component has failed in 14 months. Both times leaving me stranded. I am now being told it could be weeks or months before the dealer can get my part. The etorque also caused the starter to lock up and it also now must be replaced. The vehicle broke down right after I got off the interstate 2 minutes earlier and I would of been on I-20 with vehicles traveling 70 mph. Someone is going to get hurt or killed because of this part.

While coming to a stop at my driveway the truck stalled while on the auto start/stop system, the vehicle had to be put in park and restarted as normal. The next day the same issue occurred then the battery warning light came on along with a engine code. The etorque motor/generator failed and has been confirmed by the dealership it was purchased from. Had I not been on such a low volume road the stalling could cause risk to me getting hit or causing someone to hit me due to the failure to restart. Vehicle is at dealership with confirmed etorque motor/generator failure and a warranty claim has been filed/in process

After coming to a stop, my vehicle does not accelerate. It automatically engages the park brake and the battery light starts flashing. I have to restart my truck multiple times for it to restart. I have taken it to a dealership 2 and each time they are unable to diagnose it, and release it to me with no info.

When you step on the accelerator while driving and then release it completely, the power will suddenly disappear completely and you will feel a jerk!

Purchased the vehicle(2022 Ram 1500 BigHorn w/ 5.7 HEMI Etorque) 7/26/25 from Kenny Ross Ford with 26,600 miles on it. Noticed a whining noise at lower speeds and idle. Thinking it was a pulley bearing, made repair appointment. By 7/28/25 the whining had turned to grinding. Dashboard lit up with warning lights, truck went into limp mode and eventually completely died in middle of road on way back to dealer. I am told it is the MGU and the wait time on backorder is extensive. They havent been able to give me an exact time yet of when the part will be available.

From the first oil change forward, I have reported an intermittent electronic problem with the display screen. The screen would fail to activate. None of the functions of the push buttons below the screen which control the widgets’ on the screen would function. The air control for heater and defroster being the main safety issue.

The contact owns a 2022 Ram 1500. The contact stated that while reversing, the rearview camera image was blue, and the message "Camera Unavailable" was displayed. The contact stated while driving 25 MPH, the vehicle made abnormal knocking sounds and stalled. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was restarted; however, the failure persisted. The contact was able to pull into a gas station and parked the vehicle. A mechanic informed the contact that the sound was coming from the engine; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 68,000.

Mileage: 68,000

The first issue appeared when I came to a stop at a light. The auto start/stop feature malfunctioned and left my truck dead in the middle of a busy intersection and wouldn’t turn back on right away. Eventually it turned on and I was able to make it home safely. I thought this was a one time thing as the truck then appeared to be working fine after. But then it happened again after that where it wouldn’t restart after the auto start/stop function didn’t restart the engine. When I brought it in to the dealership they diagnosed the problem as a faulty etorque motor and replaced the unit in July, 2023, about a year and a half after I bought the truck brand new. Now 2 years later, the issue is happening again. This time the check engine light came on, then a few minutes later the battery low voltage light came on, all while I was driving at speed on the expressway. The truck never shut off and I was able to make it to my destination safely but I feared the same issue from 2 years ago was happening again. I immediately had the 12v battery replaced under the hood the same day and got an oil change to make sure it wasn’t either of those things triggering the check engine light. The check engine light remained on and so I was able to bring it to the dealership with the battery voltage gauge reading 11.2 at the lowest while on the way. They hooked up the code reader for the check engine light which showed error code: P0A78 - Drive Motor A Inverter Performance, leaving me unable to drive the truck home as it is unsafe to drive at this point for fear the truck would lose power while under way. As it stands, truck is at the dealership awaiting further diagnostics for the same issue that’s been happening since I bought the truck new in December, 2021.

Check Engine Light came on at start. Drove a few miles. Stopped at a stop sign. Upon accelerating into a right hand turn, truck stopped, emergency brake engaged, lights came on the panel stating park assist is not availaible, disengage e-brake to start engine. After disengaging the emergency brake the engine started. Later same day stopped at red light. Stalled out again when accelerating when light changed. Was able to restart after disenging the emergency brake. Minutes later attempting to park in a parking lot at low speed stalled out for again. Was able to restart after disengaging the emergency brake. This happened on a Saturday. When I started the truck Monday to take to the dealer for service the check engine light was no longer on. Dealer reports no codes found. This is the 4th time to the dealer in three months for random stalling issue.

When attempting to merge with traffic and accelerate quickly the transmission occasionally will stay locked in a lower gear leading the engine to stall out causing a collision risk. This usually occurs when attempting to accelerate quickly. When accelerating from a stopped position, there is a delay in power which requires the operator to time their merges in anticipation of this problem. This also caused the vehicle to lurch forward adding to the risks of accidental collision.

On two occasions, separated by a period of weeks, while traveling approximately 25 mph, the vehicle's engine died without warning. This prompted autobraking that brought the vehicle to a stop. I was required to put the vehicle into park and was able to restart the engine, release the parking brake, and continue. A review of various forums indicates this is a known problem among other Ram 1500 owners who have experienced more severe circumstances, including crashes, as a result. Feedback from the dealership is that they are unable to reproduce the event and have no guidance on how to correct.

I was traveling at low speeds and made a left hand turn and the vehicle stalled. The next day was at the same spot and made the same left turn and the vehicle stalled again.

DTC stated that there was a "drive motor inverter temperature sensor failure"

Motor Generator Unit Failure

While driving my vehicle at approximately 15-20 mph it unexpectedly and without warning shut down and engaged the emergency brake bringing the vehicle from 20 to 0 immediately. The vehicle the stated ignition was not put in park. I restarted the vehicle and the e brake was engaged.

Uncommanded engine shutoff while rolling out at slow speed into an intersection from a complete stop. The shifter automatically was placed in park and the parking brake was automatically engaged. I restarted the truck, disengaged the parking brake and drove away.

The engine stalls, shifts to park and applies the parking brake. Sometimes it is at a stop and others it is under 10mph. It has been happening over the las few months and our dealer can't seem to repair it.

Going thru neighborhood stop signs, stopped at the first one and when i tried to take off I noticed the gas pedal wasn't accelerating vehicle like normal/ felt like a transmission slipping issue, but it finally "hooked up" and surged forward 100 feet to next stop sign, and after i stopped I hit gas pedal again only to stall out and roll thru the intersection. Brakes were almost unresponsive, and rolled about 60 seconds until truck finally shifted into park on its own and applied emergency brake. After the truck got to a complete stop, it started back up and drove fine the final 2 minutes of the drive home. No warnings/ check engine lights/ malfunction messages were displayed, no obvious signs of issues. 1. The malfunctioning component would be the motor, as it stalled out for seemingly no reason. But issue could be incorrect supply (voltage/ fuel/ air/) so something like the (fuel pump/ alternator/ control modules) could be actual culprit why truck stalled out 2. The safety of me and my passengers was at risk because we stalled out in the middle of an intersection, had it been a stop sign on a road with flowing traffic moving above 25 mph, an accident would most certainly be a good possibility. 3. The problem hasn't been reproduced by dealer or mechanic. Research into this topic yields countless similar issues with similar year and models by Ram. 4. No, vehicle want inspected by anyone but myself. This occurred in a small neighborhood with little to no traffic and no accident resulted from the truck shutting off. 5. Only symptom was a few seconds earlier, where from a complete stop it felt like the gas pedal wasn't responding at all, low rpm and almost stalling, then all the sudden the transmission "slipped" into gear and surged forward. The next stop sign 100 feet ahead is where the truck stalled and wouldn't start for a minute as i rolled uncontrollably thru the intersection, and it finally hard shifted into park and applied e-brake

Twice while coasting at between 5 & 10 mph, the engine shuts down, a warning shows auto disabled, and applies emergency brake before one can even get the transmission into park. Our concern is that this sudden stop could cause us to be hit from behind. We brought it to a Ram dealership in Hartsville, SC and they could not reproduce problem and have no idea what caused it.

We purchased this truck in 2022 brand new from the dealership. It has had electrical issues intermittently that has caused it to cycle through 3 batteries already. The truck will fail to start. The worst, most unsafe incident, happened when the truck completely shut down on the freeway. Every indicator light came on the dash and one by one the features of the truck started shutting down. First power steering. Then stability control. Followed by every feature that needs electricity until the truck shut off on the freeway and was unresponsive. We are finding online that people are having this issue with the Ram 1500 specifically equipped with the e-torque option (which is what we have). We have taken the truck into the dealership 3 times, each time they have simply said it was a battery issue and were unable to diagnose a bigger problem. At one point they had the vehicle for more than 30 days. This is my wife's vehicle. We have 3 kids. The safety of my family is at risk every time the vehicle doesn't start when we need it to and certainly when the truck shuts down in the middle of the freeway. It's dangerous. And we know it is not a "battery issue"

When giving the vehicle gas after a stop sign. The vehicle threw itself into emergency break and shut off in the middle of an intersection. Had to turn off the emergency brake and restart the vehicle. This has happened multiple times. The vehicle almost stalls consistently after coming out of a stop sign or making a slow right turn.

On March 12th, 2025, I was driving the truck on cruise control at 70 mph on the toll road with no shoulder. The truck rpm gauge went to zero as well as all other gauges. The truck went to shut down mode, I then put the truck in neutral it would not let me start it so I applied the brake to stop the truck, then put it in park.The emergency brake light was on so I had to release it and the truck restarted . Note this stall happened the middle of the highway, luckily , no one came up on me while the truck was stalled. We took it to 2 different Dodge dealers today and they both say there is not a stored fault code or active code, therefore there is nothing they can do to resolve this issue. This is very frightening as I do not know if or when this could happen again.

I purchased the truck used five days ago from a dealership and today the engine shut off on me approximately 12 times. Most occurred while putting the truck into reverse or drive. I was exiting my driveway and the engine turned off halfway into the street. I was unable to move it and since I had to pick up my child, I left the truck halfway in my drive way and half on the street. When I returned home I was able to drive the truck, but approximately 7 minutes later it turned off on me when I turned into a shopping center. The last two times it turned off on me (all on the same day) it occurred while I was on the freeway driving approximately 70 mph. The engine just shut off so I pulled over to the side of the freeway. I was able to drive it shortly after, but then it occurred again. I was able to drive it home approximately 12 miles away without further incidents.

More than once now the vehicle has applied its parking brake, the engine stalled, and stopped the vehicle in the middle of the road. It then required me to reset the emergency brake to “release”, return the shifter knob to park, and restart the vehicle in the middle of busy intersections!!

There is premature bearing ware on the E-Torque alternator. When taken into dealer was told not to drive the vehicle due to the fact the vehicle will eventually lose power and may be stranded. When taken in was not given a time line for when the part will be in. When looking on line noticed there is approximately 4200 parts on back order . Some individuals stating they have been waiting 3-4 months. While the vehicle sits in the drive way waiting for part still have to make payments and trying to find rides to work which is over an hour each way!!

When the vehicle is cold, after about a mile of driving coming to a four way stop, the vehicle stalled in the middle of a busy intersection and applied the emergency brake. An error message came up to service the electronic throttle control. A few miles later a message came regarding the battery saver and the battery light was lit. This came two days after being at the dealer for this issue where they found nothing! After doing a simple google search it appears to be a known issue.

Vehicle has shut off for no apparent reason when slowing and turning. This has occurred three times in the last year. This is very unsafe and I believe there are recalls for the same make/model vehicle built in prior years.

Vehicle stalled while driving. Causing sudden loss of engine power and related functions such as power steering. Cause was do to water intrusion from rear window leaking on to a control module RF Module. The leak is common in thousands of ram trucks over several years. They’ve attempted to address it for some years but not all. Having such an important piece of equipment under a window which they know is prone to leaking is irresponsible and negligent. Had I been at higher speed this could have been deadly.

This vehicle stalls while driving. • The engine shuts off without warning • The vehicle shifts into park and applies the emergency brake • The vehicle has a malfunction warning light with a battery fault symbol • The vehicle has a "low voltage condition fault"

on 2 separate occasions, I experienced a low speed stall when pulling out and turning at intersections. After the stall, the vehicle placed itself in park and activated the emergency brake. In both instances, the stall occurred after I had partially entered an intersection, representing a safety hazard. In both instances, the vehicle was able to be restarted quickly.

The contact owned a 2022 RAM 1500. The contact stated that after leaving the dealer from completing the recall remedy for an unknown recall related to the fuel pump and while driving at 20 MPH, half a mile from leaving the dealer, the vehicle started to smoke and an abnormal sound came from the vehicle as the front windshield cracked. The check engine warning light illuminated. The contact then tried to make a U-turn and return to the dealer. The vehicle suddenly stopped and shut off. Other drivers started to honk in an effort to alert the contact that there were flames coming from the vehicle. The contact then saw smoke coming out of the front part of the vehicle and exited the vehicle. The Fire Department was on scene and extinguished the fire. The origin of the fire was unknown. The fire took place at the intersection of [XXX] . The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The insurance company deemed the vehicle a total loss. The vehicle was consumed by the fire. The contact was the only occupant in the vehicle and sustained emotional distress that did not require medical attention. The failure mileage was approximately 20,970. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Mileage: 20,970

In October 2024, my 2022 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel, which I purchased brand new from Lynch Ram in Wisconsin, suffered a catastrophic fuel system failure while I was driving. The fuel rail—previously under recall—cracked, spraying diesel fuel all over the engine bay and sending smoke and fumes through the cabin vents. While the truck didn’t catch fire, the situation posed a serious safety risk. I had to have it towed to Zeigler Ram in Downers Grove, Illinois, where they confirmed that the failure was due to the known recall issue. They replaced the part under warranty, despite previously stating that the necessary component had been unavailable for months. Fast forward to February 2025, and the exact same issue occurred again while I was on a road trip to Michigan. Once again, the fuel rail cracked, spraying fuel over the engine and sending fumes into the cabin. My truck was towed to Zeigler Ram in Grandville, Michigan, where it's now awaiting repairs. This means the replacement part only lasted four months before failing in the same dangerous manner. Serious Safety Concerns Fire Hazard: Diesel fuel being sprayed onto a hot engine creates a significant risk of ignition, which could lead to an engine fire while driving. Cabin Fumes Exposure: Diesel fumes entering the ventilation system can cause driver impairment, dizziness, nausea, and other health risks, especially on long drives. Repeat Failure in a Critical System: A fuel system defect that fails twice in four months raises concerns about the quality of the replacement parts and whether the manufacturer has truly resolved the issue.

Engine shut off unexpectedly while moving at a slow speed, while making a turn. The vehicle shifted into park and applied the emergency brake automatically.

A few days ago (18 Feb 2025)Truck died while coming to a stop light. Would not immediately start, out on flashers and continued to attempt to start. After a few minutes I was able to start and proceeded on my way. Truck has never done this and dash board did not indicate any issues.

While slowing down to a stop, my engine would stall. The truck would go from Drive to Park, engages the Emergency Brake, and stalls out. There is still power to the truck. This has happened 4 occasion already and I have brought it into the dealership. The have updated software, changed camshaft and now waiting on "alternator" component. This is a safety issue that I'm very concerned about. Doesn't look like they know the exact problem.

Vehicle cut off in middle of intersection, locked emergency brake a d turned on battery light. Took several min to get vehicle operational. This put my family and I in grave danger. This issue has bee. Reported by priovious owner also. Very scary

On two occasions the engine has stalled while trying to accelerate from a stop sign. Both instances were not complete stops and when I tried to accelerate, a warning chime sounded and the engine shut off. I shifted the vehicle into park and it applied the parking break. When restarted the battery light was on and the voltage going to the battery was low. About half of what it normally is. I shut off the vehicle and opened the driver door to "reset" the system and then started the truck. Once I did this there were no issues on my 25 minute drive to work. The engine was not completely up to operating temperature quite yet but was more than halfway there. On another occasion this winter I was stopped at a stop light at the engine shut off as it noramlly would with the E-torque system. When the light turned green I released the brake pedal and went to accelerate and the engine never restarted. I went through a similar procedure to get the truck started again although it did take longer than this morning.

The contact owns a 2022 Ram 1500. The contact stated while driving 30 MPH, the vehicle stalled. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact was able to pull over to the side of the road. The vehicle failed to restart and was towed to the residence. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer to be diagnosed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 41,000.

Mileage: 41,000

**DANGEROUS STALL OUT ISSUE** RAM 1500. Typically 2-4 minutes into driving on random mornings after warming truck up for 5-10 minutes, I go to give it gas and the engine stalls out in the middle of an intersection, sometimes with oncoming traffic. No check engine light at all. Autobrake engages. Put it in park and restart. No issues the rest of the day…until the next morning. Has happened multiple times. Took it to ram/mopar service. They couldn’t find any issues. Replaced the eTorque alternator. Still having the same issue.

1/21/24 was at a stop light. vehicle was idling. tried to accelerate. vehicle cut off, ebrake was applied electronically, check engine light came on and remains on.

ON 12/31/2024 I was turning right onto a street and my vehicle shut off. There was no power steering or power brakes. The battery light came on and some warning about battery saver emitted. The vehicle would not restart so I had it towed to Larson Dodge in Puyallup, WA. I have a gas, 5.7 L E-torgue engine. Also, the left turn blinker does not always cancel itself and the vehicle was in the shop previously for this, but they could not replicate the issue. Both issues are a safety issue. The dealership stated they were unable to resolve the matter so they contacted their engineers. Its alleged that they are sending some type of module which will not be here until 1/28/25.

The engine shut off unexpectedly while stopped at a stop light. It shifted into park and applied the emergency brake automatically. It would not restart immediately and I saw a malfunction warning light with a battery fault symbol on the dashboard.

When accelerating from being stopped at a stop light the vehicle spontaneously shut off and the emergency brake engaged. I was able to restart the vehicle and disengage the brake and drive. Check engine light came on, the start / stop function is disabled and the remote start is disabled. Vehicle is giving engine code P1C64 with the check engine light one.

Jun 13, 2024 2022 Rebel GT FIRST INCIDENT: while making a right hand turn from a stop light, the truck lost acceleration, rolled for a few feet and locked up into ebrake engagement and: >low voltage warning>red battery symbol>clicking lights>complete shut off!! Gave me the follwing messages in the display "key not in vehicle, place in park to start, low volatge." When i finally got it restarted it didnt give me full acceleration power. it limped down the road until i could safely pull off the road. Continued to show low voltage. I limped it home and conitued to have low volatge issues. i took it to the dealer next day and they was unable to recreate or resolve the issue. They reset the battery but It happened again... Well today while at 75MPH on the freeway, attempting to pass a semi my 2022 Rebel GT 24k miles lost acceleration and shut off, same as the times before. >low voltage warning>red battery symbol>clicking lights>complete shut off!! I was ready for the whole truck to lock up right there on the freeway becuase it usually engages the ebrake! After a few seconds it re started itself!! while at 75mph!!! then the transmission slips like its going to lock up-im assuming because of the e-brake engagement it usually does and the fact that i was going 75mph?!! It then engaged to "normal operation" with a 13.1 voltage, so I sped back up and I got my as* to the dealership that was fortunately only 2 miles down the road trying not to panic. My service lady came out and hooked it up for codes, what did she find?.... "nothing but B233C00 which is a random code" she said. Which means (as we all should be l familiar with by now) that they cannot do anything without data. I noticed that there has been an investigation opened and I wanted to add to the complaints

The vehicle stalls while driving. I’ve had 6 occurrences all intermittent. The truck is in motion and at any speed. It happened in a roundabout, uphill at 45 mph, while doing a Detroit left, while coasting when approaching a stop light at 30 mph, while turning left into my neighborhood and on the highway with the cruise control on. When it happens I lose steering and power brakes. It terrifying. I’ve been to the dealer and they couldn’t replicate the issue. They are going to put a monitor on. I have read that it may be connected to a faulty electric motor in the drive system. It can happen at any speed in any conditions.

I was driving my Ram up to a red light and was slowing down to come to a stop. Upon my attempt to slow down to the approaching redlight the vehicle abruptly jerked and stopped, the vehicle pretty much felt like it jumped into park on its own. The battery light came on, the brake light came on and the auto start symbol came on with this symbol (A!) The engine felt like it was going to stall, however, it didnt. Then engine was sort of racing and slowing down a few times. The truck would not move and did not stall. With my foot on the brake I could not shift the vehicle into any gear. I hit the stop start button with my foot on the brake and the vehicle would not shut off, it kind of raced the engine a little bit. I attempted hitting the start stop button a sechond time with my foot on the brake, all dashboard lights went off and the truck went into normal driving mode. I was able to continue home that evening and the lights have not been on since. I contacted my dealer and made an appointment for them to check on the vehicle, apt is on Jan 3rd. It was a little bit alarming when this happened and if someone was behind me it may have caused them to run into the back of my vehicle. This took place on December 22nd. I continued to research this problem online and found an article associated to this problem and several reports to NHTSA about this issue. The article indicated I should report this issue, which I am doing. I also immediatley received a notification on my RAM app which I will supply. Thank you

Vehicle stopped at stop light when start/stop system activated. When acceleration attempted, turning right, vehicle stalled, activated the parking brake and displayed a battery warning. Restarted vehicle and showed a low voltage condition for the battery. Pulled over and turned off the truck and restarted which cleared the issue and voltage returned to normal. This is the third stall over 66k miles, the first with a new battery, which doesn’t seem to be the problem.

the truck was at a stoplight and the auto start/stop system shuts off the engine to conserve fuel. The engine will not turn back on. the truck autoshift corrects the transmission to park. The shifter then can not be used. the truck has to be restarted. The restart can happen on the first try or the third. After the restart the engine is running rough and bucking and the acceleration is not consistent for a about 5 minutes. This problem has happened on at least 5 different occasions. the first in April 2022 with 4410 miles, 2nd March of 2023 with 22085, 3rd November 2023. After each of the first three incidents the truck was brought to the dealer and they were unable to replicate the problem. No error codes registered even thought a got a powertrain alert in the app that I pay for. The fourth time was sometime in the spring of 2024 and the last one was Dec 13th 2024. The truck has not been brought to the dealer after the last two problems. What is the sense when they can't find anything wrong.

When applying the gas petal the engine will stall. The vehicle completely died while driving.

While towing, the cluster presented "Service Electronic Throttle" warning, lost the ability to accelerate (limp mode), and also lost electronic skid control. Code P00AF was stored. The turbocharger is now being replaced. This is a serious safety issue that is being reported by hundreds of owners of FCA products with this engine across their brands. The same repair is being applied regardless if it is Ram or Jeep, replacing the turbocharger. There is clearly a safety issue and it seems that nobody is doing anything about this widespread safety issue. It is far from isolated and someone will inevitably become seriously injured as a result of this no known flaw if it remains unaddressed by the NHTSA and FCA.

On 3 separate occasions, each involving a stop light that changes from red to green as the vehicle has come to nearly a complete stop, I pressed the accelerator and the engine died. The vehicle responds by automatically shifting the transmission into park and setting the emergency brake. Two of these times there has been a car behind me who narrowly avoided rear ending me. The vehicle has restarted each of these times but auto start/stop does not seem to work for a while afterward. I now disengage auto start/stop each time I start the vehicle and have not experienced the problem with it disengaged.

I keep getting a check engine light because of voltage issues related to the etorque system. Also receive a battery icon and volt gauge shows 11v. The code says everything from overcharge to under charge and all kinds of electrical codes. I have been to dealer multiple times. At first they did nothing but last visit they did a control module software update. Code did not appear for a few weeks and last weekend it came back.

On November 19, 2024 I was driving my kids to school this morning. It was a clear morning and the roads were dry and clear as well. I was still in our subdivision. I put my blinker on to make a right hand turn and slowed down to a stop. After confirming there were no cars coming, I intended to make my right turn and my engine stalled. I pressed the gas pedal to confirm and the vehicle engine did not respond at all, it just coasted. The message on the dash instructed me to put the truck in "park." As there was another vehicle behind me wanting to turn as well and to avoid any accidents, I put on my hazards to allow the car behind me know I was not moving so they could go around. I then pressed the brake, put the truck back in park. And then I had to restart it again. This is a very scary issue and the dealership's advice was that since there was no actual recall "yet" they would charge us about $200 to do a diagnostic first and then see what the issue was. Our vehicle is a 2022 Ram. I only drive this vehicle to do school drops off/pick ups and I work from home. We've already had to replace the starter assembly at 39.093 miles. And now the engine is stalling while the vehicle is in motion at only 43,000 miles right now.

I have had multiple incidents of my 2022 Ram 1500 ETorque, when coming to a stop the auto start stop system engages and when I let my foot off the brake to take off the truck will not start the engine back. It will engage the parking brake and shift into park, sometimes will start back with the start button depressed. I have had at least 4 different incidents where it leaves me sitting in heavy traffic in a dangerous spot. The CEL has come on twice, other times the "Service Start/Stop System" and "Service Charging System" have come on. I have had it to my dealer in Fayetteville, Arkansas 4 times. They have reprogrammed the ECM, the Hybrid Module, and the Motor Generator Unit, with no improvement in issue.

On three occasions within 72 hours, and while towing a vehicle up an incline, the vehicle presented the "service electronic throttle" malfunction indicator. The vehicle lost power and would not accelerate. The design of the road that I was travelling upon during two of the events, had no shoulders. The third location where the error presented was on heavily travelled two lane highway. In all three circumstances the failure presented risk to my personal safety losing substantial ability to operate the vehicle in a predictable and reliable manner. This failure is not anecdotal. There are literally hundreds of unique instances being reported across just one owner's forum alone. Hundreds more on others.

While coming to a stop, the vehicle shutdown on its own and caused the auto parking break to enable. This caused a disruption in surrounding traffic. There were no warning lights or other indicators either before or after the incident.

Hello. While driving on the highway at 65MPH and decelerating down to 35MPH ,about to take a single-lane, curved, and elevated exit, the vehicle dashboard emitted a ping and engine turned off. The dashboard showed a message indicating to press the brake and push the ON/OFF button to start the vehicle (as it normally does when it is off). The ON/OFF button showed the RUN signal as if the engine was still on. 2 seconds later the ENGINE light turned on. It was followed by several messages in the dashboard including ESC system offline. Then the battery signal, as well as many others, turned on. After coming to a complete stop the vehicle engage the park brake on its own. When pressing the brake and pushing the start button the first time, the ignition engaged and stayed engaged for ~5-7 seconds without actually starting the engine. On the second try, after the ignition disengaged and the start button actually showed the OFF position, the vehicle started as normal. The engine light stayed on but no other noticeable effects were perceived. After turning the vehicle off and restarting it two times the engine light stayed off. The incident was not reproduced over the 24-hour period after its onset. As mentioned before, this happened on the highway and the vehicle was coasted on a single lane feeder until a relatively safe spot was located to stop. However, the safety of the pilot and others was at stake as the pass was very narrow. Fortunately, the driver did not had the need to step out of the vehicle and, after restarting it, managed to drive it to safety. This happened 24 hours ago. No vehicle inspection has been performed yet.

On three separate occasions (so far), our 2022 RAM 1500, with 23,768 miles on it, has stalled, and completely shut down all driving function while in forward motion. 1. While pulling out from the grocery store parking lot onto a main town road while trying to accelerate from 5-25mph. (May 2024) 2. After restarting the truck, and driving forward a couple feet, it happened again. (May 2024) 3. While driving 60mph down the parkway, and decelerating/downshifting to prepare to take the exit. (October 2024) All three times, there were absolutely no warning signs or lights that came on before, during, or after this happened. The engine remained running, but felt as though it was in neutral. The truck would not shift back into drive, regardless of us changing the gear shift, and had to be completely powered down, and powered back on.....in the middle of the road. In both May and October, the truck had been brought to the dealer, and they were not able to recreate the issue, nor were any codes or problems detected. Thus, we have had to leave the dealer, each time, in an unpredictable and unsafe vehicle. We are lucky that the incidents of this happening in April were at an intersection with stoplights, preventing traffic perpendicular to us, from T-boning us as we were stuck in the middle of the road. We were also lucky that the incident in October happened while there was nobody traveling close behind us. Any of these incidents could have caused a major accident. Not only would this involve us, but anyone else around us. This truck, I repeat, is UNPREDICTABLE and UNSAFE, and RAM can't seem to figure out what to do about it since there are no codes, or ability to recreate it. Each time we get in the truck, we gamble our safety and our lives because nothing has been done to resolve this issue.

I was driving my 2022 Ram 1500 today to an intersection where I stopped. As I started to accelerate through the intersection my truck lost power, shifted into park and the emergency brake was turned on. On the driver display I received a battery and voltage error which quickly appeared then disappeared. All of this happened without warning or obvious cause. Luckily no one else was at the intersection or the situation could have been more dire. It took me 3 to 4 times turning the truck on and off to be able to drive again. This is the first occurrence I experienced. Very unnerving having my vehicle shut off while driving and having the parking break applied.

My truck has been stalling at low speed, automatically shifting into park, and the emergency brake is automatically engaged. This occurs at random times, but typically as I approach or depart a stop sign or community gate. It has happened with other vehicles in the vicinity. The dealership has changed out the MGU, but it happened again the next week, 3 times. The dealership states that they are not receiving assistance from Chrysler.

Exhaust manifold leak at less than 25,000 miles in a 2022 model year truck. This continues to be a problem with Ram, not offering extended warranty coverage and is affecting many vehicles with the 5.7 hemi engine, leaking to carbon monoxide risks, repair costs, increased emissions, etc. why Ram hasn’t been forced to address this preemptively especially since it can ruin the catalytic converter, release dangerous emissions, on top of the well known camshaft issues affecting numerous engines.. they’re getting away with manufacturing a defect product while nobody holds them accountable. While my repair is currently covered under warranty, I am without my vehicle until it is done. Others are even more unlucky paying out of pocket or in the case of most people nowadays, incurring an expense they can’t afford because of a defective design

2022 Ram 1500 with etorque Hemi, 46,000 miles. On 3 occasions, since August 9, 2024, the engine stalled upon the engine starting during stop start mode. All 3 occasions occurred at a stop sign. 2 stalls occurred in front of oncoming vehicles. No accident happened. 1 instance the vehicle the emergency brake was activated, the low battery voltage light came on, voltage showed 11.4 volts, and the voltage did not increase while driving .75 mile. Battery was charged over night. Latest occurrence, after restart the voltage would stay at 13.0 volts while driving over 20 miles.

1st Issue: With <5K miles on odometer, engine would not shift out of 1st gear. Check engine light came on. I drove ~5 miles to a safe place and parked. After a few minutes I cranked up and the check engine light was off. Transmission shifted fine. I reported to the service manager at Abernathy Dodge in Lincolnton NC during first scheduled oil change. He shrugged and said "who knows". 2nd Issue: With <10K miles, vehicle would stop suddenly and would not move. I had to pull the park brake lever to release it. Assumed it was a safety system that I was not familiar with. Later, it would lock down and stall and I took the same steeps to release. 3rd Issue: With <39K miles (3k outside of warranty and paid for) the check engine and battery light come on. I took it to Marburger RAM in Shelby NC because it is closer than the dealer where I purchased. They stated it needed a battery module that had to be ordered. I drove it almost home before the engine stalled. Had it towed back to Marburger on 7/13/24. I have called frequently and stopped in on 3 occasions since 7/13/24. Each time they are waiting on some type of battery module. No attempts to reach out and keep me updated. I really like the RAM 1500 truck but, I am sick of electronic gremlins and failure of dealer to address or communicate. I have been extremely fortunate to have avoided a highway accident caused by electronic features beyond the drivers immediate control. Any assistance and manufacturer accountability you can provide is greatly appreciated.

Problems started about a year after I built/purchased the vehicle. I started to experience stalling and hesitation when accelerating. At slower speeds, the truck shuts off, occasionally and the brakes lock up. This almost caused a major incident twice, due to vehicles following me and the abrupt stops in traffic. This could have caused a major accident and loss of life/lives. This has been going on for several months. They can't seem to duplicate the problem, even though, on 3 occasions, they did software updates and once, replaced the fuel pump. The vehicle is still under warranty but approaching the end of warranty period in about a year. I have taken the vehicle to Dodge on 8 occasions and they say it can't be duplicated. I filed an arbitration hearing for them to repurchase or replace, but was denied. I recently read in a news article that there is a preliminary investigation for the exact same thing that is happening to my vehicle, which involves over 150,000 vehicles in the 2022 Ram and Jeep Wagoneers by the NHTSA. The vehicle is very dangerous to drive and I fear that a major accident is imminent. Customer care says that because they can't find anything wrong with the vehicle, they closed the case. I have everything documented, the arbitration case denial, the customer care representative, closing the case because she stated that I was refusing to work with them, which is not true. She informed me that they were even going to tow the vehicle to the Dealership where it was purchased, but the dealership refused to look at or work on the vehicle. She expected me to drive 100 miles to another dealership and I refused to do that, based on the drivability of the vehicle. The dealership where purchased, is 15-20 miles from my residence. Another dealership, that has been trying to duplicate the problem is 5 miles from my residence. There is a very, very dangerous problem with this vehicle. At the moment I have roughly 17,000 miles; practically new.

Engine shut off while traveling on road way

RE: Open NHTSA investigation to Ram & Jeep… Today, [XXX] at about 10am: While driving at low speed: My 2022 RAM 1500 shut off, put itself in park and activated emergency brake — this is the 2nd time in less than one month this has happened. I took truck to dealer (Central Florida Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram) for service on 7/8/24 to address the first time this happened on [XXX]. There is an open nhtsa investigation into Ram/Jeep for 2022 vehicles shutting off… i need direction yo help address this issue. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

While driving around 75 MPH on I-75 on 7/28/2024, my Ram truck seemed to stall and would not accelerate as I was driving in the middle lane. I tried several times to accelerate but the response was intermediate and not sustainable for more than 1-2 seconds. The experience reminded me of a time dozens of years ago in a different vehicle when I ran out of fuel. FYI- I had a 1/3 tank of fuel remaining when my issue occurred. Having no acceleration at this high of speed with heavy traffic put me and my family at risk. I safely pulled over and the engine automatically shut down when I put it in Park. There were no check engine/warning lights on the display. I waited about a minute and restarted the engine. The engine reved okay so I put in drive and completed my drive with no additional issues. I have an appointment with my local dealer next week to have this looked into. This is the only time that I've experienced this issue.

The truck will lose power, shift into park and apply the emergency brake. This has happened around 25 time, It happened the day i got the truck, got it started turned around went back to the dealer, they did find anything. This is a very

At low speed, engine stalled and along with strange braking issues occurred causing me to move off road to avoid traffic. Check engine light, and battery light illuminated. After multiple attempts engine restarted and I was able to drive vehicle normally. I didn't think much of it until same problem reoccurred with engine surging and braking. Similar to the transmission slipping and jolting when throttle applied.

Happens once in every 5 times. If I'm sitting still about to gas it to pull out into traffic the gas pedal does not react causing a massive delay that has almost got me in a few accidents. I've also been at an intersection, stop signs, traffic lights and parking decks moving slowly and the trucks Emergency Brake will automatically be applied.

The vehicle has stalled multiple times while slowing down into a light and does not restart. The vehicle is equipped with the e - torque system that is supposed to restart the vehicle after coming to a full stop in the engine shutting down to conserve fuel. The vehicle will sometimes shut down at a slow speed and will apply the parking brake automatically. The vehicle then has to be restarted the emergency brake has to be disengaged and the vehicle has to be shifted back into drive to be able to move. The vehicle will have multiple warning lights come up on occasion, including low voltage, service etorque system, low power mode. The vehicle has been taken to two different dealerships at least three different occasions. Sometimes they find diagnostic trouble codes that refer to loss or low engine power. But they have not been able to replicate the problem when dropped off. The problem has occurred during the winter months but also the summer months, so it seems that temperature is not the sole cause. But it seemed to happen more during winter time. The concern for safety is that the vehicle will shut down at a low speed of less than 3 mph. When letting go of the break and expecting the engine to restart the vehicle May slowly roll forward into an intersection if it's in a downhill before the parking brake is able to engage itself. Another concern is for the person behind might assume that the vehicle will drive forward but due to the engine failing to restart and applying the e-brake, the person behind might not see the brake lights engage and could cause the vehicle to get rear-ended if the driver behind is not able to determine the vehicle in front of them has stalled. The problems will appear with no warning whatsoever. And they seem to mostly happen during the initial few miles of the day. As the majority of the instances have been during the morning on my way to work.

My truck randomly stalls, and which point the parking brake engages, sometimes in the middle of a turn or at a stop sign, This issue was the topic of a recall for the 2021 model year. Mine is a 2022 and is experiencing the same exact symptoms and issue.

1. Engine stalled and complete loss of power at low speed/during acceleration at a stop sign, traffic signal, crossing, etc. 2. Engine stalled and complete loss of power at low speed (under 35 mph) during acceleration and/or deceleration. 3. I've noticed over the last several incidents that upon initial startup the engine did not feel or sound normal to the point I have been able to anticipate a stall. Engine will not idle properly, rough/jerky takeoff, delayed response when accelerating. Stalling only occurs once per driving episode. It has not stalled a second time following the initial stall. It appears the issue resets the engine?, electronics?, computer board?. 4. Incidents are very stressful. The number of times the stalling incident has taken place is between 15-20 times. I purchased the vehicle new with 35 miles. As of 7/2/24 I have 39,400 miles. The issue began about a year ago with approximate mileage of 26,000

The engine in my truck stopped running while I was driving on the highway. First thing I noticed was the dash indicating that I should shift into park. When I attempted to apply power to safely change lanes, there was no response from the engine and thats when I realized the rpm was at 0. I attempted to restart the engine, but it sputtered and ultimately died again. Upon bringing the vehicle to a stop on the shoulder, I attempted a restart and the engine ran loudly for a moment and then died. Once I got the truck to the dealer and they were able to assess the problem, the determined that the engine had experienced catastrophic failure. One of the valves had stuck open and punched a hole in the piston. Thankfully this was covered under warranty and the truck now has a brand new long block, I have since learned that this is a recurring issue with this motor from FCA so I decided to report it to the NHTSA.

Near stalls when taking off from stop.

Vehicle stumbles at stops when sits more than 6 hrs ..feels like a misfire ..had it to dealer 6 times can’t find problem

Vehicle stalled after accelerating from a stop sign during slow speed driving in my neighborhood. Truck engaged auto parking brake in middle of intersection, "battery" light illuminated on dash, and Battery voltage suddenly read approx 11.5v. Had to restart in intersection and disengage parking brake to proceed. This occurred at 18002 miles on May 11. (photo attached) No previous warning lights or issues. Dealer was only a mile away so drove there without stopping while battery voltage continued to read 11.x volts. The dealership service dept was closed, so drove 2 miles home while battery warning continued. After stopping and re-starting truck in my driveway, voltage showed normal 13-14v and continued to run normally afterwards. Truck occasionally exhibits engine stumble especially when coasting to stop signs in my 15 mph neighborhood during first drive of the day. I have not experienced a complete stall since this one incident. Vehicle has not been back to the dealer since this occurred but is available on request. While unusual, I didn't have time to deal with the problem since the dealer was closed. I saw a notice of nhtsa investigation online which made me think to report this now, 2 months later.

2022 Ram 3.5 V6 ETorque. While cruising at low speeds (Approx. under 30mph) and making a left-hand turn, my vehicle's engine shut off and the emergency brakes activated without warning. This happened on more than one occasion. This safety hazard could lead to serious bodily injury or death.

The contact owns a 2022 Ram 1500. The contact stated while driving 20-30 MPH after making a turn, the vehicle stalled. The contact shifted to neutral(N) and pulled to the side of the roadway. The contact had not attempted to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to the dealer; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The contact stated that the failure had recurred six months later. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a secondary dealer, Rick Hendrick Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Duluth (2473 Pleasant Hill Rd, Duluth, GA 30096); however, the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 22,000.

Mileage: 22,000

Engine stalls randomly and the parking brake sets automatically slamming the truck to a sudden stop. So far I’ve had 4 separate incidents. Always when taking off after a stop at an intersection. Truck stalled just as I was entering an intersection each time. No dealer has confirmed this issue. No inspections have been done. No warning lights or messages appear. Incidents occurred over a 8 month period beginning 12/2023. Most recent, first week of 07/2024.

I was slowing down for traffic at a stop light and when I was almost stopped traffic began moving again so I took my foot off the brake and pushed the gas pedal. The truck stalled, it shifted to park, the emergency brake came on and a red warning lamp for the battery came on. Traffic behind me had to stop abruptly to avoid hitting my vehicle. I immediately put my 4-way flashers on while trying to get the truck to restart. This was at 3:30 pm in very busy traffic on a 6 lane road on Feb 22 2024. I couldn’t get the truck to restart or move or do anything for over a minute. After a minute the truck allowed me to restart and drive home. The battery lamp stayed on the whole way home and the back-up camera stopped working when I parked. It has never had issues other than this one time. There were no warning lights on and no symptoms before this happened. It has not happened since, but I worry it could happen again with no warning.

I am not sure what system failed, but I suspect it could be an electrical or engine problem. The car has lost towing features, has shut off or almost shut off while driving on highways or while making left and right turns during exits from highways. The vehicle has also lost power steering. This happen while the vehicle was towing a travel trailer on the highway. There will be occasions when the front collision warning system goes off in spite of no collision being imminent. There have been occasions where the infotainment unit fails to turn on and also the rear-view camera feature does not come on. The vehicle continues to have these issues off and on. Yes, the vehicle is available for inspection upon request. My safety and those that were onboard the vehicle were put at high risk because the vehicle could have been rear-ended had vehicles behind me been following more closely while the vehicle lost power and stalled/almost stalled. On the highway, my safety and those of others were at even higher risk due to increased speeds. During towing our safety has been tremendously put at risk. Some of the problems have been "fixed" by the local dealership (i.e. loose cables, replacement of infotainment unit). In other instances (stalling issue, collision warning system) the dealer claims to be unable to reproduce the problem. The vehicle and or components have not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, etc. One occasion there was a "check engine" warning, but it was very brief. Other than that there have bee no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problems prior to the failure. These issues first appeared in August 2022, four months after purchased brand new from the dealer. I have taken the vehicle to the dealer for inspection of these issues ever since, on at least five occasions. The latest stalling issue was in March 2024, though I did not take it to the dealer since on prior instances they have insisted there is nothing wrong with the vehicle.

Truck stalls out when driving and stoping. Causing parking brake to engage and lose of all functions. It has been at dealer 4 times they say it’s to intermittent. They can’t get it to do it. Also they see a fault but can’t trace it. This has been going on since 2023 a few months after I leased it. I have all records of events. No warning is given before this happens. It just dies. Yes truck is available for inspection. Dealer has all info on status. Parkway dodge jeep and ram.

I have made a prior complaint about the same issue when I had the truck for only a day and 111 miles on it that the entire truck lost power as I was making a left hand turn. It has again happened that the entire truck lost power as I was driving. I now have 15,039 miles on it. I was driving stop and go leading up to a stop sign when the truck stalled and lost power and turned on the emergency brake. I was able to finally get it back running. It has been an issue for a while where you can almost feel like the truck is about to stall but it eventually kicks back in. This time however it did not.

Yesterday, 6/11/24, was the 4th time while driving the engine shut off while moving. Had to hit the brakes and coast to side of road. Had to put in park and start the engine. Dealer claims can’t repeat or find code. Same problem as many on the page. Also have the front camera/radar intermittently stop working and warns emergency braking and cruise control can’t be used. This is on the freeway!! 45 seconds later everything works again. Again no dealer help.

I have had several occasions where I have been driving down the road and my engine has shut off. I took the truck to the dealership and they show error codes but can’t fix unless they can recreate the problem.

I stopped at a stop sign. When I began to accelerate, the engine stopped leaving me stranded in the middle of the road. Perpendicular to on coming traffic to my left. Luckily it was 530 in the morning and traffic was very light. I was able to get the truck restarted after about 30 seconds and continued to work. No check engine light or any warning lights came on at that time. When leaving work, the check engine light came on and i drove it straight to dealership because it is to dangerous to drive safely. This is the only time this has happened and the truck is in the shop and was told they cannot recreate the problem. There was no check engine lights prior to incident. This could have been deadly to me or any on coming traffic as they could have ran into the drivers side of my truck.

The contact owns a 2022 Ram 1500. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The message "Water in Fuel" was displayed and there was an abnormal sound coming from the fuel pump while driving. The contact stated that he had drained the fuel filter but could not find water intrusion in the fuel. Additionally, the contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle stalled. The contact stated that he was able to pull to the side of the road on some occasions. The contact stated that upon connecting a diagnostic tool to the vehicle and clearing the diagnostic test codes, the vehicle was able to restart. The contact stated that the failure had been recurring while driving. Additionally, the contact stated while driving 45-50 MPH, the vehicle started jerking significantly and stalled. The contact was able to pull to the side of the road. The vehicle failed to restart and was towed to the dealer to be diagnosed. The contact stated that the dealer charged a fee for diagnostic testing, but the contact declined to pay the fee because the VIN was included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V263000 (Fuel System, Diesel), which he related to the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 41,000.

Mileage: 41,000

Engine has stalled and shut off on multiple occasions, once on the on ramp to a highway this posing extremely dangerous scenario. Dealership has been unable to determine the cause or replicate the issue

Persistent codes not considered ESP not functioning properly or appearing I display Headunit notifications not storing for vehicle trip or information Engine ticking under 2000 miles No recall work done or reported by showroom company ( failure to register in USA) Surging acceleration No stop start function (standard) Mis information on cluster Water seeping between rubber mold and window Lightning bolt on dash Drive train issue (control module issue appeared 800 miles disregarded) 48 volt system worked on prior to purchase (recorded but undocumented by dealership confirmed by employee) Possibly ground disconnect from 48 system Control bus failure Floating high rev no shift Steering column never done recall work (Built in Michigan)

My husbands and my life were put in danger by the motor not being bolted correctly to the frame of the truck, only 2 bolts were holding it and it could have fallen out, the tire having a screw in it on the inside of the side wall of tire, radiator not bolted correctly to the truck and could have fallen out, Freon and antifreeze leaks into the cabin after we picked up the truck, transmission not being bolted in correctly and wire harness hanging loose, clamps not being tightened, fluid missing from radiator, clips not connected, bolts broken off into the motor, bolts stripped and not secure, brake and transmission fluid leaks when they told us too pick up after repairs were made at Mt.

The high pressure fuel pump failed while traveling at approximately 45 mph in the left lane on a public highway in snowy conditions. The truck lost all mechanical power and would not start upon multiple attempts. There were other motorists on the road who could have been endangered if I was not able to safely maneuver the truck to the shoulder. The truck was towed to Ken Garff Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram in West Valley, UT where the service department confirmed that the high pressure fuel pump failed. The manufacturer "prioritized" ordering replacement parts, but is unable to provide an estimated time of arrival for several components necessary to complete the repair. No symptoms, warning lamps, or other indicators were evident prior to the mechanical failure. The fuel tank was 3/4 full with diesel fuel purchased in Utah (where the incident occurred), DEF was full, and the truck had routine scheduled service a week prior performed by a Ram dealership in Canoga Park, CA.

vehicle stalled going around a corner and shut off. After 5-10 minutes restarted and works now.

The contact owns a 2022 Ram 1500. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V767000 (Fuel System, Gasoline, Engine) however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable time to remedy the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

The truck shut off on me at high speed on the highway. Another time which I caught on video, I was making a right hand turn and the truck shut off.

THE VEHICLE HAS A CONSTANT VIBRATION. IT WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALER WITH 312 MILES. I HAVE COPIES OF EACH TRIP TO THE DEALER. THE DRIVE SHAFT SHOWED NOT ALIGNED PROPERLY, THE BRAKES SHUDDER UNDER DECELERATION, NOISE WAS FOUND IN THE MOTOR MOUNTS. IT VIBRATES AT ALL SPEEDS BUT AT 65 MPH THERE IS A ROARING SOUND INSIDE THE CAB WITH ENOUGH VIBRATION ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO PUT YOUR HAND TO SLEEP. I'M NOT SURE IF SOMETHING IS GOING TO COMPLETELY SEPERATE FROM THE DRIVE TRAIN, IF THE BRAKES ARE GOING TO FAIL OR MOTOR WILL SEPERATE FROM THE MOTOR MOUNTS. I'VE BEEN IN THE TIRE AND WHEEL BUSINESS FOR 41 YEARS AND THERE IS SOMETHING GOING ON. IF THERE'S A VIBRATION AT ALL SPEEDS, SOMETHING IS WRONG. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BY THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND BY THE AREA TECH ADVISOR WHO TOLD ME ON OR ABOUT SEPTEMBER 9TH 2023, HE KNOWS WHAT'S WRONG AND IT CAN NOT BE FIXED. IT APPEARS TO ME THAT FCA IS WAITING FOR SOMETHING TO FAIL BEFORE THEY WILL FIX THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE FILED A "LEMON LAW" SUIT AGAINST FCA IN THE STATE OF TEXAS.

On three (3) separate occasions I was making a turn when the engine just shut down and turned to the off position. Two occasions were on to a busy road…where fortunately no cars were coming at the time or I could have been seriously injured.

Both Exhaust Manifolds are cracked and out of warranty. Multiple local ram owners have had the same problem. The large safety concern and is the fumes make its way into the cab with potential CO causing harm to passengers. Replacement Manifolds appear to be on long backorder!!

While driving on the freeway at speeds of approximately 65-70 mph, the vehicle unexpectedly locked the steering wheel, depriving the driver of the ability to maneuver or control the vehicle safely. It required significant effort for the driver to manually turn the wheel enough to guide the truck to the side of the freeway. This was an extremely dangerous situation, as we no longer had full control of the truck while at highway speeds. Had this occurred during a turn, the truck would have continued in a straight line, crossing into oncoming traffic. Concurrently, all lights on the dashboard began flashing while random error messages sequenced through the display, all without an apparent cause. After maneuvering the truck to the side of the road, we turned off the engine. However, all the lights on the dashboard continued flashing. I called to arrange for a tow truck just as a police officer arrived who provided us with assistance. We were able to restart the truck only after the battery was fully discharged, and we jump-started the truck with the officer's vehicle. Once operational again, the dashboard and screen displayed normally. After taking my truck to the local dealership for analysis, I was told that no cause for this potentially deadly malfunction could be found. I feel that the company has no interest in resolving the issue. In addition to this experience on the freeway, another issue which may be related is associated with the auto start-stop feature of the vehicle. Over the past year, the reliability of this function has deteriorated. Frequently, when the vehicle comes to a stop at a traffic light, it autonomously engages the park, activates the emergency brake, and proceeds to switch off the engine. To resume normal operation, the driver must manually disengage the emergency brake, restart the engine, and shift back into drive. The dashboard displays the message "Stop/Start Restart Required." I have videos of the dash after we pulled over if needed.

Vehicle engine stalls at stop and start condition. This has occurred several times without warning. When this happens the emergency brake comes on and the dash warning lights come on. The vehicle ignition must then be turned completely off and wait for ten seconds before restarting which clears the issue. The emergency brake must be released also. Taken to two different Dodge Ram dealers who could not diagnose and correct the issue. Both dealers reported that they could not see any error codes in the computer. This vehicle is not safe to drive, the stalling has occurred when taking off from a stop condition and stalling in an intersection. I am afraid to drive this vehicle. I have had this issue since almost new, 2022. It now has 55k miles. I paid $75K for this vehicle and am scared to drive it. I have contacted Ram Customer Service and they offer no support other than take the vehicle to another dealer. Please issue a recall, someone is going to get hurt with these vehicles.

While coming to a stop less than a half mile from my house the engine died. I had remote started the engine before leaving for work, so the engine had run for a few minutes before leaving my house. I was able to start the truck and continue driving. A few miles later I got a battery warning so at my next stop, I shut the truck off and opened and closed the driver's door. The truck restarted and everything was running normal.

This Ram 1500 is a known problem all over the internet for randomly stalling. This truck stall for no reason. This is a safety issue and RAM refuses to recall the vehicle or buy it back. You could be driving 20mph or 65 mph and it could stall. Then the car need to be stopped and put in park in order to restart it. I refuse to subject me or my family to this safety hazard driving on the road

Vehicle shut down while driving slowly after a stop sign. Occurred on first trip of the morning, cooler weather, at a slow speed within neighborhood. After stopping at a stop sign, and pressing the gas pedal, the vehicle shut down. I had to steer it (power steering off at this point) to the right and barely was out of the intersection. It went into park, emergency brake engaged itself. It took several minutes to get the vehicle operational again after following the on-dash instructions to disengage the emergency brake and start the vehicle. It started after 1 failed start attempt. The 2nd attempt is what allowed me to get the vehicle operational again. Whole situation might had been around 2 minutes. 2022 RAM Limited e-torque, 22,596 miles

At random times the truck when coming to a stop under 10 mph will stall and shut itself off and engage the emergency brake. It shifts itself into park and to start again you have to push on brake, release emergency brake, press ignition switch and put car back into drive. This happens sometimes multiple times a day or once every couple days, whenever it happens we nearly get rear ended because it stops the truck so suddenly. The truck also has engaged the emergency brake at 60 mph, jolted the vehicle and we had to coast to the side of the road. At this time it did not stop the truck instantly and thank God no one was right behind us. We have taken it in twice already to get it fixed and we were told they couldn’t replicate the problem along with they updated the computer so we wouldn’t have any further problems yet we still are. This truck is going to get either us hurt or someone else hurt and it’s the only vehicle we have to use! I’ve seen several other complaints online and whole heartedly believe this truck is a lemon with a big safety concern of creating an accident due to the sudden stall and shutdown of the truck at random times.

Engine stalls and shuts off at speeds between 50-60mph and requires you to shift to neutral or park to restart. No check engine light or any other sort of warning light is on after restarting the vehicle. Happened four times in a two mile stretch after having been driven to, and around town approximately 20 miles.

In September of this year (2023), while driving, the engine stalled. Information on the Driver Information Center said to put foot on brake and press "start" to start engine. Note that I was rolling along at about 30 mph in heavy bumper-to-bumper traffic in a middle lane of a multi-lane interstate during rush hour while towing a trailer at the time. I was completely blocked in by traffic, and there was no way to safely pull over to the shoulder. I tried lightly stepping on the brake and pressing start to see if it would restart while moving. This didn't work. I shifted to neutral and tried again. The engine still would not start. Eventually the truck slowed to a few miles per hour when the emergency brake came on, bringing the truck and trailer to an abrupt stop in the middle of heavy interstate traffic. Once stopped, I was able to shift to Park, step on the brake and press Start. The engine started. I was then able to shift to Drive, release the parking brake, and accelerate. After the restart, everything worked normally and I continued my trip from Chicago to North Carolina without incident. This is the second time this has happened. This exact same scenario also happened in the spring of this year (2023). I was not towing a trailer at that time.

The HPFP on my 2022 RAM Rebel Eco Diesel is a potential failure my dealer is aware but no fix has been available. I ask each time I am at the dealership and told no resolution has been provided. This is going on a year.

While pulling out of a stop light, my 2022 Ram 1500 stalled, and the parking brake engaged while I was in the middle of the intersection. After getting the truck restarted and safely getting through the intersection, the battery indicator warning light came on and the voltage gage dropped dramatically. When I took the truck to the dealer I was told they could not replicate therefore it was in safe operating condition. My truck is one year old with only 7400 miles. Also the dealer disputes the active recall on my truck.

After stopping at a stop sign. Started to go through and my engine shut off . I had to release the emergency brake for some reason to get the engine started. It also happened 2 other times while turning left or right. If someone were close to me they wouldn’t have had the time to stop. It was a dangerous situation. Thank you

AFTER COMING TO A STOP, OR NEAR STOP, THEN TRYING TO GO AGAIN, VEHICLE HAS SHUT ITSELF OFF AND ENGAGED PARKING BRAKE 3 TIMES NOW IN LAST MONTH. YOU HAVE TO THEN PUT IN PARK DISENGAGE PARKING BRAKE RESTART AND HOPE YOU CAN GO, SOMETIMES TAKES 2 OR 3 TRIES. I SEE THIS COMPLAINT EVERYWHERE ON FORUMS. THIS IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED AS THEY TRY TO PULL OUT IN TRAFFIC! DEALERS SAY THEY CAN'T REPLICATE ISSUE, AND DO NOTHING.

Engine stopped while driving down a mountain road. Dash said put your foot on brake and push start button. Car emergency brake engaged. No check engine lights or codes. Truck has stopped again about a month later same thing. Took to dealer on July 19th 2023 they couldn’t have it happen while they drove it. No codes. Aug. 25 th 2023 while going through an automatic car wash the same thing happened again same messages still no codes.

While driving at a slow rate of speed, the engine turned off, the emergency brake engaged itself automatically, and the truck came to a sudden stop--very unexpectedly. There was a message that came on the screen telling me to put the truck in park to turn the vehicle on.

After a cold start, I drove 0.5 miles to an intersection. The engine stalled, the vehicle applied the electric parking brake, and would not move. The dash indicated a shift to park was required. The shift was completed and the vehicle was restarted, but in an unsafe state. The hybrid starter/generator was not charging the battery, and service was required. I have had this truck to the dealer several times for this safety problem but they can't duplicate or fix it. I believe it is the same as 23V-265, but they have not included 2022 models.

I was driving down the road and my truck shutoff and coasted just enough for me to get out of the on coming traffic and then the emergency brake automatically turned on causing my truck to stop in the middle of the road and auto shift put it into park. Fortunately, I was able to get it started again and move out of the road. I very easy could have been killed.

Our 2022 Ram 1500 Diesel truck stranded us from approx. 9pm-1am while traveling hours home on a remote MS state hwy intersection and shut our engine down, locked all 4 wheels & disabled our ability to put the vehicle in neutral to push from the roadway. We were left stranded in a main lane of a busy intersection at 10 pm at night. The local PD showed up and had to block traffic and our truck had to be 'pulled' onto/off of a flatbed tow truck (wheels would not turn) and hauled to the local dealer. We had nowhere to go as the local dealer was closed & no rental agencies were open so we had to sit outside in the parking lot of the dealership until midnight for a friend to arrive from our hometown to come pick us up. We are being told that our high pressure fuel pump failed and our truck is part of a recall (that still shows online as 'remedy not yet available'?) & that it may take up to a month to get it back due to parts delays/repair time. No warning lamps or message appeared on the dash prior to this occurring and we received no letter telling us to 'seek service asap'...the letter we recall receiving said the same as what appears online?? Our hometown dealer said they could not offer us a loaner since the vehicle was not in their shop, yet Ram will not tow it to them, and the dealer we left it at 2 hrs away has no loaner vehicles available so we have now had to pay nearly $300 OOP for the tow and call the corp. office to file 'cases' to REQUEST RETROACTIVE reimbursement of the tow expense & a whopping $40/day from Ram towards a rental vehicle! We have now paid nearly $1k OOP in 5 days for towing and rental expenses which only get us to 8/13 and the ETA for repair is not til 8/27 at best. This is clearly in no way a 'timely repair' of a safety recall!? We have called all 3 customer care numbers for Ram to no avail. We need their financial assistance UP FRONT to pay for these expenses while we await the repair of our fully warrantied vehicle!

Multiple instances where vehicle shuts down, immediately stopping/slowing the vehicle. This has occurred while vehicle is in motion, also in stop and go traffic. Engine will shut off immediately and throw multiple check engine/system warnings, including "Service ABS, Service Stability/Traction Control, Service Airbags. Had service appointment with dealer, but was vehicle was released with dealer stating they could not reproduce instance. Within a week, the vehicle shut down in traffic and had to be towed back to the dealer. Pictures were taken of the dash code and provided to the dealer. After a second week, the dealer response was they could not duplicate the problem.

The contact owns a 2022 Ram 1500. The contact received notification of the NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V767000 (Fuel System, Gasoline, Engine) however, the part to do the recall repair were not yet available. An undisclosed dealer was contacted and confirmed that the parts were not available for the recall repair. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

The contact owns a 2022 Ram 1500. The contact stated that the vehicle hesitated upon depression of the accelerator pedal with the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle had been taken to the dealer on several occasions and the contact was informed that there was a misfire in cylinder #5. On another visit the contact was informed that there was a misfire in cylinder #6. The spark plugs and fuel injectors have been replaced; however, the failure persisted. The contact stated that there a burning electrical odor inside the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case number was provided. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 20.

At a complete stop, truck shuts off and emergency brake gets engaged for no reason. This has happened approx. 8 times since I bought the truck brand new from dealer. Truck has 12, 800 miles to date. No major safety risk but stuck in traffic while trying to get truck moving. The problem has not been reproduced by dealer but doing research online, other people are complaining on the same issue. The Ram dealer (Nemer) in Wilton, NY has inspected under warranty. No warnings or messages appear when truck shuts off.

has been hesitating since day one entertainment and GPS freezing and still is it has been to the dealer for both and has been updated many times the last update was for drive ability concerns and it was the worse it has been since the update was done the morning after it was done it would not start i had to try 3 or 4 time and it started and ran ruff and the trans was not shifting correctly the update for the GPS and the entertainment system was done over the air and still does not work it still freezes and i have to stop driving to reset it as far as the hesitation i can make turns safely if you think you have enough time to turn safely you don't and could get hit broadside the last pcm update made everything worse be careful ram owners i have to be every time i drive it

While driving in town or on freeway, the engine shuts off and emergency braking system is engaged. No warning lights come on suggesting anything for a code. The dash only says to place truck in park, restart the truck and disengage the emergency parking system. This has been in the shop and they can not duplicate. Dodge is aware of what is transpiring. How is this safe and have not been recalled by dodge? I have children and grandchildren that are usually in the truck with me and this is NOT a safe vehicle to drive at this time!!! This has happened numerous times!!! What if an 18 wheeler is behind me and a fatality happens? I am an er travel nurse. There are plenty of others experiencing this and nothing has been done per the attorney I spoke with. My cell number is [XXX] should you need to contact me regarding this matter. Thank you in advance for taking care of this matter in a speedy manner. As I said prior, this could be fatal to a family due to the negligence of Dodge Ram.

This truck has an intermittent problem that causes it to shut down and leaving me stranded in traffic. This shutdown has happened 8 times. It first happened on Jan-10. This is two weeks after I purchased the truck. Since then, there have been 4 attempts to fix it at dealerships. They were not been able to identifying the causes of these problems or fixing them. The Truck was out of service for 47 days while it was in for repairs. Both of these items exceed the limits of the Missouri Lemon Law. I will briefly review the nature of the problems. These 8 shut down events are not just a stalling problem. When the truck shuts down the yellow engine lights come on and the truck will not try to restart when I press the gas or restart button. In some cases, it automatically engaged the parking brake and I am not able to get the truck switch into park, neutral or reverse. Each time it took between 2 and 20 minutes to restart the truck, while I was stuck in traffic. 3 times I exited the vehicle, walked away, then locked and unlocked it. After that I was able to restart the truck. In 3 of the occurrences the red battery warning light came on. When this happens, I have about 30 min both batteries are drained and everything shuts down. Here is a summary of some of the history of these problems, Summary 1st Occurrence --- 1/10/23 (14 days after I purchased the truck). Occurrences --- 8 (7th was during a test drive at a RAM service center, on 4/25/2023). Times in shop --- 4 (at dealer service centers). Days in shop--- 47 (Out of service). Milage 1st time --- 410 (Odometer at first occurrence) Avr miles to occur --- 454Avr miles (shortest was 30, and two were over 1,000 miles) Avr time to occur --- 17Avr. Days Problem status --- not fixed. (the cause or causes have not been identified or fixed)

The engine has a mind of its own and decides not to do engine breaking even if the driver downshifts. I first noticed this at low mileage when slightly tapping on the breaks would sometimes cause engine breaking as long as I kept my foot off the accelerator. However if I down shifted for additional engine breaking on the same slope the engine would scream revving up to 6000 RPM without slowing the truck at all, NO ENGINE BREAKING! So last week this problem nearly cost my life. I was going down a mountain pass with my 4500 lb RV which is well within the advertised 7000 lb allowed towing capacity but if I let my foot off the gas, no breaking. This is normal and the driver just downshifts to introduce some breaking. So i down shifted from 5th and the engine responded with a self destructive scream reving up to 6000 RPM and yes NO ENGINE BREAKING. I did not think much of it after all I still have the breaks right? So feathered the breaks for about 10 minutes or so thinking nothing of it. Even tapping the break to tell the onboard computer I need engine breaking is not working even though it was working when minimal engine breaking was needed. Out of pure luck I decided to stop at a mountain spring to get some fresh spring water and that is when I notice wait a minute, this car is barely stopping!! I got out of the car just short of the end of the pullover spot and was greeted with the smell of burning break pads! THE FRONT BREAK PADS WERE SMOKING! What is sad is that the same RV on the same pass on my 20 year old 12 passenger van easily manages this when I down shift to second gear with some minor feathering of the breaks and never in 10 years had issue with the slightest heating of the break pads. BY DISABLING ENGINE BREAKING CHRYSLER HAS CREATED A SERIOUS INJURY HAZARD.

The truck engine stop running as I was accelerating from a stop at an intersection. It auto-shifted to park and required me to restart the truck. Thankfully this was not a busy intersection or pulling out on a highway. This is the 2nd time it has happened in less than 30 days. In my opinion, this is a major safety hazard that needs more attention given by the manufacturer. Someone could be seriously injured if this happens in a busy intersection. There were no warnings or messages at the time of the failure. The next step is bringing it to the service center.

While driving down the road the battery falls rapidly from 14 to 11.8 or less causing the battery light and engine light to come on, and the unit to start losing power and die. The truck has been in the shop several times with still no repairs completed. They have given me back the unit telling me there’s nothing they can do and not sure what is causing it. The ecm data has pulled several codes, but yet the dealer still won’t repair based on those codes. I have been told sorry, there’s nothing further we can do. Mean while the truck continues to die while driving down the road which has put me and my family’s life in danger when the unit just rapidly dies and there’s no time to exit a freeway causing you to shut down the unit in the middle of the road. Hoping you can get it restarted and on your way before someone hit you. This vehicle is unsafe to drive, and has been an on going problem for 10 months now. It’s been in two separate shops and still no repairs and ram care has refused to send a tech out to assist. The unit was taken into the shop for a 3rd time with engine, battery light on while dying and I was told sorry, they don’t have time to look into it. Not it’s back in for the 4th time, and still no repairs have been made. I was told the codes that it’s pulling out the ECM data cost over $15,000 in repairs and they are not going to go that way unless they know exactly which part will fix it issue to take the truck back and they’re sorry. sorry it does not save me and my family‘s life when the unit dies in the middle of a road and someone slams into you on a freeway again. This is putting my families life at risk, which eventually will cause a fatality. Ram still has done nothing. No assistance. I am not out 80k for a unit that is not safe to drive and un tradable!

On 4/7/23 the vehicle was taken into the shop because it cutoff randomly. The dealership kept it 2 days and said they couldn’t replicate the issue. On 5/7/23 I was on my way home driving roughly 40-45 MPH. The vehicle shutoff causing my steering to not work and my brakes to not work. I hit a telephone pole head on splitting the telephone pole in half. I spent 16 hrs in the hospital and now have a long road of recovery ahead of me.

The truck died periodically before or after a stop in the middle of intersections or just driving along. It has been in for inspection multiple times and one recall on it for some processor. It died a week later. Went in for hybrid control processor update which did not correct the issue. Shop said they were unable to duplicate any abnormal condition, no stored or active codes or pending updates at this time. Don't know when this thing is going to get me hurt or worse. No warning lights or messages prior to the failure.

While driving and pulling a camper, the truck stalled and the park brake activated. The truck would not start again and was stuck in the left lane of a two-way lane road. Luckily no one was following close or they would have rear-ended the camper as no braking occurred- the truck just stalled. We were in an area (Douthat state park) with no cell signal and had to get out of the vehicle on the road to get help. There were no warning at all before the truck stalled. The truck had to be towed to a dealership. The feedback from the dealership is that they need to open up the engine to determine what happened but there is a 3-week wait so I don’t know what failed.

While driving at highway speeds. The throttle stopped responding. Had to pull off the side of the highway as the vehicle engine had shut down. Afterwards, no dash lights on in the instrument cluster and the key fob would not initiate any activity.

Engine randomly stalls. This happens while driving.

Vehicle stalled died while turning left and automatically set parking brake very dangerous while on busy road

The engine dies while slowing down or immediately following a stop and start, dies in the middle of an intersection or just going down the road. It has died at a railroad crossing. This could be a deadly situation if it happened in heavy traffic since the driver can't get out of the way. It sets the emergency brake. It has to be at a complete stop before we can press the brake, manually unlock the park brake, then start the truck It's been back to the dealership numerous times. They tell me they don't doubt my word, but they can't come up with a solution. They told us it needed an electronic update. They came to pick up the truck this morning4/17/23 to do a scan for more updates. This is very serious!

I have had two engine related issues during my year and half ownership of this truck. The first episode was when I was coming to a stop at a red light from highway speeds. The engine started shaking as if it was going to die. I was able to drive off and it was fine for the rest of the drive. The second time the engine actually shut off while making a left turn in a four-way intersection. Luckily there was no cars around because it died in the middle of the turn. It started back up, but it was a long start.

The engine of my vehicle shut down while I was driving. There was not any warning. The emergency brake turned on. The battery light icon turned on. I driving around 25 mph. I was able to pull to the side of the road and restart my vehicle. I was in the middle of the road with traffic in front of me and behind me. I could have been rear ended. I will be taking the vehicle to the dealership.

My 2022 Ram-1500 V6 Etorque truck has stalled 5 different times. Each time it happened after I had been driving 10 minutes or up to 1hr. Each time I was stopped at an intersection or in stop and go traffic. Twice I was able to restart it in less than 1 min. One time was a few minutes. The other two times it would not restart after several minutes. The Sales person suggested I get out of the truck then lock it and unlock it. After 5 to 15 minutes I was able to restart it. In both cases I had to exit the truck in traffic to lock and unlock it. In all 5 cases I was in traffic when this happened. This problem first occurred a few weeks (480 miles) after I bought the truck. The truck is now into a dealer service shop for a second time for this problem. So far they have not been able to diagnose the problem.

My 2022 Ram 5.7 with etorque (25k miles) decided to park itself in the middle of a state Highway. I was coming to a stop at a light and heard some beeping noises from the truck, I looked down and it was trying to put the truck into park while my wheels were still turning. Once I was around 2-3 mph it jammed into park and applied the parking brake. I couldn’t move the knob to drive, and my battery light lit up on the dash. I had to turn the truck off and back on again to get it out of park. The truck almost didn’t seem to want to turn back on and when I put it in drive, the engine started sputtering and the battery light remained on. I gassed it and barely managed to make my turn without stalling into oncoming traffic because the engine kept acting like it was going to die. I stopped in a parking lot for a few minutes, kept the truck running and started back home. While the engine stopped sputtering it still didn’t seem to drive quite right- the truck was surging a little when it shifted and it still had the battery light on. Once I got home (like a mile away) I turned it off and back on a few times with no further issues. Possibly unrelated but I have also been to 3 Ram dealers to try and fix my engine tapping/knocking noise (and sometimes rough idle - maybe lifter related). It’s so loud I can hear knocking from inside my truck and from 15-20 feet away in a parking lot. All three dealers stated it was normal, which (obviously) it is not. I’ve also had issues with electrical burning smells coming from my engine bay, as well as a leaky rear window (probably over the battery pack). Ram needs to acknowledge the safety issues and mechanical failures and fix them immediately before someone gets hurt, or worse. I have read dozens of reports from this site of trucks parking themselves in the middle of the road and so far nothing seems to be done about it. I have footage on my dash-cam, if they would like to reach out and see what exactly happened.

With 2280 miles on it driving down the highway gave me warning engine hot pulled over. The engine shredded every belt on the engine. It's a v6 etrorgue. RAM refuses to pay tow bill but yet no explanation of why it happened. Stranded me 90 miles from home. $700.00 tow bill unsafe truck.

Vehicle stalled at low speed while in reverse and once the engine stopped running the emergency brake engaged.

This is an update on my Ram, 114499224 case. Yesterday Feb 1, 2023 I drove about 6 miles from my house and as I turned left in a mall parking lot my truck engine shut of and when I touched the brake the transmission went abruptly into park and the emergency brake activated. I got the truck started and after a brief stop at the mall I drove back home, and only about a half mile from my home and as I was turning off a main road into my subdivision the truck shut off again and the emergency brake activated and the transmission went into park.

Purchased the vehicle new, after 10,000 miles driving without any problem I hooked up my truck to my snowmobile trailer to tow it on December 21, 2022 for the first time during the evening hours. I setup my vehicles trailer settings to light duty electric brake settings mode and began pulling my trailer. I just turned left onto the road coming up onto a stop sign going slow the vehicle stalled and the emergency truck brakes turned on and the truck shifted into park. I then placed the truck into Tow mode and got onto the expressway without an issue, when I turned off of the expressway I slowly turned right into a business and the truck stalled, emergency brakes went on and truck went into park. I called La Fontaine dealership whom I purchased the truck from, and they could not inspect it for 1 month. I dropped the truck off to them on Jan 16 and finally was able to pick it back up on the 20th evening. They did not test with a trailer, and I was told that everything was working properly. I opened a case number with Chrysler [XXX] and was told on Jan 25th that they spoke with the dealership and there is nothing more they can do, and if there are any more issues take it to a dealership. I have not pulled this trailer again with my vehicle in fear that it will stall and stop on the road creating an accident.

Sometimes when i go to come to a stop, my truck stalls, engages the parking brake and shift itself into park. this happens before the truck comes to a complete stop and has happened at least half a dozen times. The check engine light has stayed on after a re-start of the vehicle and when this happens the charging light comes on also. Safety was put at risk because this could very easily cause a collision at an intersection, thanfully it hasnt yet. The truck goes into the dealer on jan. 31st to look at the issue. No warning lamps or warnings are ever present prior to the system failure. The check engine light stayed on the last time this happened which was last night.

The contact owns a 2022 Ram 1500. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the vehicle lost motive power and stalled. The parking brake was independently activated. The contact stated that the failure occurred while decelerating and coming to a stop at a traffic light. During the failure, the “Parking Assist and Gear Selector” messages were displayed. The vehicle was driven to the local dealer; however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure or detect the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was not yet notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 695.

Mileage: 695

Driving vehicle at approximately 15 MPH when vehicle accelerated on its own and would not stop by depressing foot brake. Had to put vehicle into neutral and use emergency brake to stop. At the same time several dash warning lights illuminated. Such included but was not limited to, throttle control, trailer tow assist, check engine, brake assist control, etc. The vehicle was parked and unmoved until it was towed to dealership. Upon towing the check engine and throttle control lights remained illuminated. Per dealership, no light is illuminated and no issue with vehicle. Located a number of additional similar issues with Ram’s online with no recall.

when coming to a stop engine stall and the emergency brake is automatically engaged. the battery light stay on after restarting the engine. almost got hit in the rear because of this. It been to the dealership three time. no code show up. 12

Three times while at a stop sign the emergency brake has been activated, the engine has shut off and the transmission has shifted to park. There were no vehicles in front or back of me and no vehicles at the side. One of those times it took several minutes to get the truck started and moving, the other two times it was fairly quick.

Sat. 7/16/22 ~ 3:05pm (7,427 mi) - While pulling out of my neighborhood onto the main road, the truck abruptly shut itself off, went into PARK & applied the e-Brake with my truck sticking into the roadway about a foot (& another vehicle behind me). Oncoming traffic in the lane was able to go around me still. Thankfully traffic was light and I wasn’t stuck further out in the road when it happened… or Mon-Fri when it’s busier. I noticed the “Battery” fault symbol on the dash but was able to restart the truck, release the e-brake, and get it in DRIVE again to get going again. During the rest of the 35 min drive to work, I had the digital gauges up on the radio and could see the battery voltage was at 11.9v - 12.0v for the entire drive to work. Sun. 7/17/22 ~ 12:15am to 12:45am - After sitting for 8hrs, I came out expecting to need a jumpstart to get home and found the truck started right up. I pulled up the digital gauges on the radio and the dash cluster and saw the battery voltage was at 13.9v -14.0v. That seemed weird, but perhaps the 48v Li eTorque Battery recharged the 12v system? During the 35min drive home from work, I noticed the battery voltage continued to drop to 13.3v, 13,2v, & 13.0v by the time I got home. Mon. 7/18/22 ~ 7:30am - Dropped the truck off to get it looked at/potential issue entered into the system. Dealer kept the truck for a few days, making several small trips with the truck and couldn't replicate the issue. Tue. 12/14/22 ~ 3:03 pm (15,222 miles) - while making a left turn from onto a side road the truck abruptly shut itself off, went into PARK & applied the e-Brake with my truck stuck in the oncoming Lane. Oncoming traffic luckily stopped for me to clear the road. Same scenario as before, with the “Battery” fault symbol on the dash but was able to start the truck, release the e-brake, and get it in DRIVE again to get going again. During the rest of the 30 min drive the digital gauges show the battery at 11.8v to 12.0v. 2hrs later fine.

Vehicle is equipped with “e-torque” auto stop/start feature. Was driving vehicle about 20-25 mph on road within grocery store parking lot area and approached stop sign. As I came to a stop the vehicle shut the engine off like normal and as I released the brake (which is when the vehicle automatically starts again) it started and I turned right to have the engine shut off again with no warning. Vehicle came to stop on road with traffic and automatically shifted vehicle into park and set e-brake. I didn’t know what happened at the moment and was confused why I lost power. I started the engine again and shifted into drive and deactivated the parking brake. Called dealer immediately after and made an appt for vehicle to be seen. No warning lights persisted after the incident took place. Seems like a very serious safety issue that should be investigated.

There were two (2) separate Repair orders performed in late July 2022 by dealership on 2022 Dodge Ram 1500 Big Horn truck. Afterwards, on 7/21/22 the Fire Dept responded to our home since new 2022 Dodge Ram 1500 truck with 1,225 miles was “leaking gasoline⛽️ from engine compartment. The gasoline leak was pouring out the engine compartment onto the driveway and down into the street. This potential fire 🔥 dilemma occurred just 2 weeks after dealership had replaced “all the fuel injectors” in the engine. This was a dangerous situation my husband and family were put in due to thus defective truck. In addition, since the inception of leasing this truck the MIL light blinks constantly with daily notification regarding “Powertrain Engine Malfunction”! Seems very negligent for Manufacturer and dealership to have a defective truck that risks the consumer’s life and the safety of their family with a fire hazard!🔥 This defective truck had another repair order on Nov. 29, 2022 when truck began revving on its own and then lost power on roadway. We had to have the truck towed back to dealership yet again & again. This major defect occurred when the truck lost power while driving and the electrical dashboard oil / transmission indicators were acting erratically. Basically, the repair order indicates that the dealership replaced the same fuel injector that they replaced in back in July 2022 (twice for same replacement part). Lastly,, even after seven repairs the check engine light is continuously going on (indicating never ending mechanical problems). The dealership has never fixed this issue either since the truck is beyond repair.

Was driving less than 10 mph and we to make a left turn. As I turned the engine shut down and the emergency brake came on. I was stuck in the intersection. I have less than 200 miles on the truck. I was finally able to restart it.

Just purchased brand new and has 681 miles. All the coolant has leaked out onto exhaust causing steam to come into the cab. All over everywhere. The resouvoir is below the minimum level. I stopped the vehicle and was unable to return home because of fear of running out of fluid. The fumes came through the vents. This vehicle only has 681 miles. I purchased this one week ago

Sitting at red light and truck engine stalled/shut off. Emergency brake was automatically engaged I then had to restart the truck. I had to put on hazard lights as cars were stuck behind me this was very dangerous!

After coming to a stop or near stop (after applying on the brakes), there is a delay in throttle response and acceleration of between 1-3 seconds. This is a potential safety hazard because if a car is delayed in throttle, it may not be able to properly avoid an accident from behind. There were also a few instances where the car did not respond to the throttle, instead, after a 2 second delay, there was a big jolt which sounded like the car just kicked into gear and thrusted the car forward.

I have 4004 miles on this truck. it has stalled 10 times when I slow down to make a turn at a intersection. the truck stalls out and the emergency brake comes on. sometimes it goes to park and the rest of the time I have to put in park restart and take emergency brake off and then I can continue on my way. So far no one has hit me from behind me but it's still scary.

Truck was at a stop sign after being off all night. Truck started fine but when accelerating from a stop into 90 degree turn, engine stalled and battery voltage dropped prompting a shift to park warning and auto stop disabled (already disabled by button) truck refused to turn over the first attempt but started on second and displayed battery voltage at 11.9-12. This is the second time this happened and the first a new battery seem to fix but it has now returned again a month and half later. Both times this happened in traffic and the truck was in the middle of the intersection. 2022 Ram 1500 bighorn 5.7l with etorque. (First red photo was the first time, todays incident was second but it did flash battery warning later on).

On 18OCT2022 while driving on a flat section of road at approximately 35 m.p.h. my vehicle starting shaking at the area of the hood, and then proceeded to make the entire vehicle shake. Shortly after the shaking, the engine died with the message "Start Vehicle" and "Service Electronic Throttle Control", along with the entire dash lighting up. While coasting to a stop, at approximately 15 m.p.h. the vehicle suddenly locked up as it seems to have shifted itself into park, or applied the emergency brake, I'm not sure which causing the vehicle to slide into the grass I had available to pull off into.

While operating the vehicle the engine and vehicle itself shut down entirely and I was unable to operate the vehicle. Second before the shut down, I did notice a battery light come up and then the vehicle was inoperable. Vehicle wouldn’t start back up and had to be towed to the nearest manufacturer dealership. Wasn’t even able to put in neutral to push it to a more convenient spot as everything is locked up. Vehicle is still in service as mechanics are unaware of what the issue is. This is a major safety concern because it turned off while driving on the road with no warning signs. Had this happened while I was driving on a fast moving highway, this could have ended much worse.

Will it looks to be a problem with the 2022 ram e torque system and there are a lot of complaints same as mine stalling at the stop changing heating settings at a stop it stalls and just poor performance with hesitation if you are at a stop wanting to turn and waiting for oncoming traffic make sure you have enough time to proceed with the 3 second delay when pulling out the 3 seconds could mean your life its been to the dealer a few time and there is nothing wrong i disagree if you don't have the response from the time you press the peddle and the time you start to mo9ve is a 3 second delay something is wrong even when i disengage the e torque it still does the same thing Hay ram get a fix before someone gets killed

2022 Ram 1500 Vehicle with approximately 9000 miles, has stalled now twice while driving at speeds of 25 to 35 miles per hour and soon after shifts into park, and then will not start. One was on a busy street that caused risk of near accident, another was in neighborhood. Vehicle was towed after first stall, but dealership only saw stall on computer but did not have any codes or repairs identified. Vehicle also would not start on more than one occasion. Dealership cannot get in to service for 3 to 4 weeks.

Vehicle has extremely rough cold starts, only after vehicle sits overnight and happens every single time on a cold start up. Vehicle will spit and sputter and nearly stall out. RPMs on the tach will jump from 1,500 to over 3,000 and rumble spit, stumble and sputter anywhere from 10 to 40 seconds before it ultimately settles out and idles out. Vehicle has been into the dealership now twice to be serviced and they won't fix it. First time the dealer said, "no codes, there is nothing wrong" and gave it back to me. I took a video of the issue called the dealership back, showed them the video and asked them to fix it. They then kept the truck for a full week. During that time, they acknowledged that 7 of 8 cylinders misfired on startup but that they could not find a fix for the issue. They stated that I probably had bad gas and that I should try different gas. I tried gas from numerous stations and always use 91 octane and the issue is still there on every start up. I'm afraid to drive my vehicle any distance from home or overnight as I may get stranded, and I have kids.

Hello. I leased a 2022 Ram 1500 Big Horn V6 "ETorque" on Wednesday Aug. 24th from Planet Dodge in Doral Florida. On the second day (Friday the 26th) I noticed when reversing out of my driveway, the car automatically stalled and engaged the emergency brakes, on the screen it displayed "Auto Park Disabled," since I had just gotten the truck and not used to it's new features, I thought it was something I accidentally touched or pushed. I had to turn off the truck and restart it. Now on Wednesday August 31st, while getting to a stop light (speed around 15-20 mph) the car automatically stalled and engaged the emergency brakes again and the display read "Auto Park Disabled." Now I'm on a busy street, I had to turn off the truck and re-start it. I was very perplexed and alarmed at the same time because I was about to get on the expressway to head home. I instantly called my sales rep and told him the issues, he asked if the car displayed any codes. I told him no, just "Auto Park Disabled"... he said he's "never' heard of this problem before and if it were to happen again to bring it in, I didn't hesitate I made an appointment to have the truck seen ASAP. I drive my kids to and from school and to after school activities. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE in this vehicle. I've read on other online forums that this type of Ram Engine "Etorque" has been given many drivers problems, some have had their vehicles stall in the expressway. I find it disingenuous that Dodge/Ram has not taken care of this issue sooner or set out to recall these unsafe vehicles with the "Etorque" engine. My kids are not allowed to ride in my truck until this issue is fixed. If it persists...I will enforce my Lemon Law rights in the State of Florida to have the manufacturer take back the truck.

While pulling onto a busy roadway the engine of my 2022 Ram 1500 with e-torque shut off and the emergency brake applied itself at about 10mph. This was accompanied by a check engine light and low battery voltage light. After the sudden stop I was almost rear ended by another truck on the road behind me. Seems to be a known issue with these trucks.

The truck currently has 5804 miles. It has been to the dealership 4 times already for electrical-related issues, and once for a recall on the ECM. Total of 4 CILs by first 1000 miles. Then 1 additional light 8 days ago. Has been at service department since. The first major problem was at apx. 400 miles. The truck shut off at a light, even with the stop/start deactivated, and attempted to restart without success. The starter engaged but the injectors did not. It made a diesel sound until I pressed the start button again to retry, It had a CIL for injector bank misfire, then started back as normal. I drove straight to the dealer (within 2 miles) where they kept it for a week. They called and told me to come to pick it up because there were no issues with it. Apparently, the computer had no stored codes or history. Since then it has had a transmission over temp CIL, and 2 other lights that did not show me a message. The 12-inch Uconnect is constantly having errors and restarting (still awaiting a response from Ram on how to remedy it). The most current issue is when I was pulling away from a stop sign and the truck shifted to park and set the brake while shutting off on its own. Again stop/start was deactivated. Restarted the truck and drove straight to the dealer where it was observed by the service writer and manager that the low battery voltage message (11.5V) and light were on as well as several other lights. While driving it showed a low volt warning and started turning off loads to conserve power. I left the truck with them for 8 days so far. They have checked the truck multiple times as well have driven it. No evidence of any codes in the computer and no error lights anymore. Awaiting Ram to tell them what to do. At this point, I am afraid to drive the truck for fear it will shift to park while traveling at a higher speed and cause an accident. I now have a truck I cannot trust to drive and a hefty payment.

Vehicle stalls randomly while driving and automatically applies the emergency brake. Stalling randomly and applying the emergency brake in the street/highway with traffic is dangerous and unsafe. This is our primary vehicle and the dealership has been unable to recreate the stalling. The vehicle has been to the dealership twice for the stalling but the problem is still unresolved. The stalling started randomly in March-April 2022. The dealership was notified and vehicle taken in for multiple services. Problem still not solved.

The contact owns a 2022 Ram 1500. The contact stated that while her son was driving approximately 70 MPH on a busy freeway, the vehicle inadvertently lost motive power. The contact indicated that the vehicle could not be restarted and was towed to the local dealer. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 5,900.

Mileage: 5,900

Truck stalled 4 times in 2 months going less than 5 mph. When driving slow around a turn or at a stop sign, the truck stalls when I give it gas. The emergency brake is automatically engaged and I have to disengage it before I can start the truck. The check engine light and battery light came on. I took it to the dealership (Jerry Ulm) and they could not recreate the problem or see the error codes so they gave the truck back to me. It's happened 4 times since then. Please help, I have two small children.

Tow haul mode causes vechical to be stuck in 3rd gear which is very dangerous on highway because of speed limit. Ram case manager clarice McDonald case 82922734 advised me to operate the vechical in all conditions without tow haul mode on. They have no fix. The owners manual states it is dangerous and can damage the vehicle if you do not use tow haul mode when carrying heavy weights. Ram is advising customers to not use a feature in the vehicle that makes towing safer and is required per the manual for heavy weights. It is very dangerous having a manufacture advising customers to tow without the use of tow haul mode. Recall required asap.

Truck was previously, in the Dodge Ram Dealership, in Glendale, on Brand Blvd. Within 7 days of having my truck "repaired" for SUDDEN AND ABRUPT STOP IN TRAFFIC - Check Engine Light, heater going on by itself, radio-bluetooth connection issues -it was returned with "new computer hardware" and days later June 8th leaving for work not far from my house my truck - ABRUPTY STOPPED WHILE DRIVENG IN TRAFFIC AGAIN! My "case" with customer Care has been REOPENED and my truck is still at the same dealer in service! I was told that a Dodge Durango had the same issue, and it would be looked into by the RAM engineers - The truck has now stopped in traffic twice in a matter of 7 days! I am more than concerned but FEARFUL for my safety and those that ried with me! I do mostly Freeway driving and I am TERRIFED it will STALL AND STOP on me while on the FREEWAY! PLEASE ADVISE!

When in tow haul mode the truck will get stuck in 3rd gear. Speed is limited to 30. Very dangerous when towing and on roads that require faster speed. Ram says the hope to fix the software issue sometime. They said do not tow. Affects all ram 1500 with etorque. Recall needed before accident.

Was sitting at a light (auto engine shut-off was on). When the light turned green, lifted off the break to push the gas to go. Truck shut off, all lights on the dashboard lit up and truck was automatically shifted into park with emergency brake on. Attempted to restart the truck several times. Truck finally started after 8th attempt. Was able to put into drive and made it home. Truck now has check engine light on. Checked the app for an error code. Says: Powertrain Engine Malfunction on May 25th, 2022 @ 0920am. EOBD/Injection System Failure. Reading online, seems like this is a common safety error and has caused accidents by instantly throwing the vehicle into park without warning and leaving the vehicle inoperable at times.

1. Heater randomly comes on and can’t be shut off 2.rear-brake stops truck when reversing into driveway 3. Truck made noise and suddenly stopped in traffic - eeror message “power train issue” -able to restart car engine light remained on. 4. Service dealer could not get the 12” screen to respond to his touch! 5. Apps (Waze, car play and other apps) Not working constantly The abrupt stop happened on Friday Car has been in dealer for 5 full days while I must rent a car at my expense! NO explanation NO details NO information each time I’ve called dealer and Chrysler customer care! 5/16 - 5/20 after many calls - with promise of return call NOTHING! They say it’s with the technician and he’s looking at it!

Leased new Dodge Ram 1500 crew cab Big Horn V6 (7 miles) on 4/11/2022. Two days later, check engine light came on and dashboard turned on like a Christmas tree. Brought to Security Dodge dealer Amityville for service. They said it was “stored code” and turned off. A couple days later MIL (Malfunction a indicator light) or check engine light came back in. Took to same dealer for 5 days to repair issue to no avail. They said it was programming issue and emphasized “Bad fuel”. One day later “MIL” came back on flashing “check engine”. Brought back to dealer again for repair (Dodge still there). This all happened from 4/11 thru today, May 10 (with approximately 280 miles). I informed salesman and service that in Dodge app it states: “PowerTrain -Engine Malfunction EOBD /injection system failure”. However, nothing has been fixed. Basically, getting run around with Chrysler Corporate and dealer that they can’t fix Check engine light and engine problems. This vehicle is not “safe” to drive in the roadway. A real lemon. Pls. Investigate this claim..this truck has been a nightmare and more importantly not safe to drive.

In Tow/Haul mode truck will go into “limp mode”, check engine light appears, auto start/stop disengages, truck is stuck in 3rd gear until restart occurs.

Driving at slow speed after vehicle sat overnight. Truck stalled, indicating place vehicle in park before starting. I shifted to park, additional lights and errors occurred. Disabled parking brake, and was able to start vehicle after two attempts.

Truck shut off when i was driving it. Left me stuck in the road blocking both lanes of traffic. Emergency brake self applied. Had a hard time re starting, battery light and check engine light came on

The truck has 647 miles on it and is brand new, I just bought it from the dealer. The truck had been idling in my driveway for a few minutes before I left home, I was in my neighborhood, driving 25-30 MPH maximum. I came to a stop sign, stopped and then proceeded to turn left, which takes me down a hill. Approximately 1-2 seconds into the turn, the engine shut off completely, several lights went on the dash and the truck was proceeding downhill until at some point the brakes locked up, pushing me forward into the steering wheel. If anyone was infront of me I did not have control of the truck! The truck brakes were locked and I had to mess around starting it to get them to unlock, the battery indicator was lit and the check engine light was on. I was able to get to the truck restarted and took it to a pool parking lot area and shut it off completely. I was able to get it started again, this time the battery indicator went out and the check engine light stayed on. I have been reading online and see that many,, many people with the RAM 1500, most notably the etorque engine version are having the engine shut off with no warning, some at much higher speeds. I took it to the dealer, the "flashed" the computer, but also said the are ordering and replacing the computer which sits atop the etorque engine device. This is VERY concerning, especially because I see this has happened to others, and has been doing so for several years. I wanted to report this as to me, it seems like a Serious Safety Concern!

Engine stalled, inspection available upon request. Safety issue - Took a right turn onto a road with heavy traffic then while accelerating engine stalled. I was able to coast to the breakdown lane to attempt a restart. Error message on dashboard was "Electronic Control Module malfunction" . Several restarts were attempted with no success. Shut off ignition completely with a quick press of start engine and foot not on brake pedal. Attempted another restart of engine and was successful. Check engine light remained on. This was the 1st occurrence of the problem. The vehicle has not been brought to a service center as yet .

Right turn from to sign. Seems that start/stop shut off the engine. When brake was lifted the engine started and immediately stalled, e brake came on and battery warning and check engine light illuminated. I got It going again after shifting to park and releasing the parking brake and turned off start/stop. Got a weird drivetrain vibration soon after so I pulled off and turned the engine off. After I got going again it seemed to run fine but the check engine light is still lit. Two errors were thrown and appear in my Ram app: Charging System Failure EOBD/Injection System Failure

After making a left turn into a lot at a low speed, the engine shut off and e brake applied itself. I was able to restart the vehicle and disengage the e brake. Check engine light was kit, as well as the battery light. Check engine light still on.

My ram was purchased in October. Since I have had it there have been multiple electrical problems. Speakers cutting in and out backup camera showing blue screen/ flickers from view to blue screen, and when these things happen it affects the way the engine runs. A few days ago I go in my truck to take off, placed truck in drive and left parking spot. 15 seconds later as I’m driving through the parking lot the emergency break engaged tried to disengage it and it wouldn’t release. Shut the truck off and back on and it disengaged. Friday morning is when I left my house for work, as I turned right from the neighborhood at the light the transmission slipped and engine just revved. Again I had to stop and shut off truck as cars were speeding towards my direction. If that has been any other morning when the intersection is busy I would have been in a pretty horrible accident thinking I would be able to take off as normal.

I was pulling our from a stop sign to make a left turn when all of a sudden the engine shut down, emergency brake engaged and all engine power was lost. I would have been struck by cross traffic had there been any as I did not have the ability to maneuver the vehicle. The vehicle was able to be restarted and disengage the emergency brake but the engine light remains on.

While rolling to a stop and turning (3) times and once while slowing for speed bumps my 2022 Dodge Rebel 5.7L V8 Hemi with E-Torque shut off, the emergency brake applied itself and it shifted itself to park. This happened while turning onto a busy street where a bad accident could have happened because of it. There were no warning or indicators prior to the truck shutting off by itself. It has been to the dealership twice with no fix. I have had it for three weeks.
