• 12/31/2007· ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

  I HAVE A 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 5.7L HEMI V-8, AND EVERYTIME I TURN MY TRUCK WHEEL MY TRUCK ENDS UP STALLING. IT STALLS AND IDLES DOWN FOR NO REASON. *TR

• 12/31/2005· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

  ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS ON DASH ON , THE SPEEDOMETER BOUNCES 5 TO 10 WHILE IN PARK OR AT A STOP. DEALER HAS HAD TRUCK 3 TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUES.(10/2004 1/2005 10 2005 AND ON 12/2005) IT WAS REPAIRED BY CLEANING OR REPLACING SPEED SENSORS AND ABS SENSORS BUT IT HAS RETURNED AGAIN. *JB

• 12/30/2015· SERVICE BRAKESCrash

  WHILE APPLYING URGENT BRAKING AT FULL PEDAL FORCE DUE TO ANOTHER VEHICLE CHANGING LANES IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AT A MUCH LOWER SPEED, THE ABS SYSTEM FAILED TO FUNCTION, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SKID FOR TWO TO THREE SECONDS OVER AN UNKNOWN DISTANCE. AFTER APPROXIMATELY TWO TO THREE SECONDS APPLYING FULL FORCE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL AND SKIDDING, THE PEDAL SUDDENLY RELEASED ALL RESISTANCE AGAINST THE DRIVER'S FOOT AND WAS ABLE TO BECOME FULLY-DEPRESSED AGAINST THE FLOORBOARD/FIREWALL OF THE VEHICLE. AT THE MOMENT OF THE EVENT, THE VEHICLE GAVE A VIOLENT SHUDDER AND ALL BRAKING POWER WAS LOST. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED FORWARD WITHOUT BRAKES UNTIL STRIKING ANOTHER VEHICLE AND COMING TO A FULL STOP, RESULTING IN MULTIPLE INJURIES AND A TOTAL LOSS OF THE VEHICLE. POST-COLLISION, THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE PEDAL WAS ABLE TO BE PRESSED COMPLETELY TO THE FLOORBOARD/FIREWALL OF THE VEHICLE WITH VERY LITTLE RESISTANCE. THE APPROXIMATE SPEED WHEN BRAKING WAS INITIATED WAS BETWEEN 45 AND 50 MILES PER HOUR. POLICE RESPONDING TO THE COLLISION ESTIMATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 15 MILES PER HOUR AT THE FINAL POINT OF COLLISION WITH THE SECOND VEHICLE INVOLVED ACCORDING TO THE POLICE REPORT. *JS

• 12/30/2012· FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  ATTEMPTED TO FILL MY GAS TANK. THE FUEL KEPT OVERFLOWING. I WAS ONLY ABLE TO GET $15 IN GAS AS I HAD TO SLOWLY PUMP, WAIT FOR THE OVERFLOW OF GAS TO STOP, THEN SLOWLY ATTEMPT TO ADD MORE GASOLINE. THIS TOOK ALMOST 15 MINUTES. THE ONLY REASON I KEPT TRYING TO GET MORE GAS IN WAS THE TRUCK WAS ON EMPTY. IN REVIEWING OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ONLINE, REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND WITH THIS VEHICLE, THE SYMPTOMS ARE THAT OF A FAULTY ONBOARD REFUELING RECOVERY VALVE. THIS PROBLEM CREATES MANY HAZARDS WITH FUEL AND VAPORS NOT BEING CONTAINED. *TR

• 12/30/2005· SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

  I HAVE ENCOUNTERED A SERIES OF BRAKE ROTOR FAILURES ON MY 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 TRUCK. DEALER HAS TWICE TURNED THE ROTORS AND ONCE REPLACED THEM AND THE TRUCK HAS LESS THAN 30,000 MILES. I WAS TOLD TODAY THAT THE ROTORS ARE WARPED AGAIN AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. THIS TRUCK IS NOT DRIVEN HARD AND THERE IS NO GOOD EXPLANATION FOR THIS PROBLEM OTHER THAN POOR QUALITY PARTS OR REPAIR. DODGE WILL NOT WARRANTY THE BRAKES OR THEIR REPAIRS TO BRAKES. I HAVE NOW SPENT OVER $400 AT MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER...AND NO SATISFACTION. THIS IS MY FIRST AND LAST DODGE TRUCK. HOPEFULLY NHTSA WILL INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM AND FORCE DODGE TO ACT. *JB

• 12/30/2004· SUSPENSION

  MY VEHICLE PULLS HARD TO THE RIGHT. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK OF PURCHASE. I HAVE HAD 4 ALIGNMENTS DONE, AND THAT DOES NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. DEALERSHIP HAS NOT OFFERED TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER TO FIND PROBLEM. *AK

• 12/28/2014· POWER TRAIN

  WHILE DRIVING 65MPH DOWN A 3 LANE HIGHWAY, I HEARD A HUMMING NOISE. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I LOOKED UNDER THE TRUCK. THE REAR OF MY DRIVE SHAFT WAS LAYING ON THE GROUND. HAD IT TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP (COST $133.59). REPAIR SHOP HAD TO MAKE REPAIRS TO THE REAR AXLE HOUSING/DIFFERENTIAL (COST $3,543.48). TOTAL COST WITH TOW BILL $3677.07. *TR

• 12/28/2013· TIRES,WHEELS

  WHILE DRIVING THE SPARE TIRE WHICH IS SUSPENDED UNDER THE VEHICLE FELL TO THE GROUND. THE METAL BRACKET THAT PASSES THROUGH THE CENTER OF THE SPARE TIRE TO SUSPEND IT RUSTED WHERE IT CONNECTS TO THE SUSPENSION CABLE CAUSING THE TIRE TO FALL TO THE GROUND. FORTUNATELY I WAS DRIVING SLOWLY THROUGH A SHOPPING PLAZA AND THERE WAS NO VEHICLES BEHIND ME. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT FOR ANYONE BEHIND ME. VERY UNSAFE DESIGN. I MENTION WHAT OCCURRED TO MY NEIGHBOR WHO HAS A SIMILAR DODGE RAM AND HE INFORMED ME THAT THE SAME THING HAD OCCURRED TO HIS VEHICLE. HE TOO WAS FORTUNATE THAT THE SPARE TIRE FELL IN THE DRIVEWAY OF HIS HOME. IN LOOKING ON THE INTERNET, NUMEROUS FORUMS REPORT THE SAME SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND DISCUSS THE SAFETY ISSUE WITH DODGE BEFORE ANYONE GETS HURT. THANKS. *TR

• 12/27/2014· STEERING,SERVICE BRAKES,ENGINE

  I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK ABOUT 2.5 MONTHS AGO USED WITH 59XXX MILES ON IT. THIS INCIDENT HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES NOW. THE FIRST TIME I WAS COMING OFF THE FREEWAY APPROACHING A STOPLIGHT. AS I WAS SLOWING DOWN WHEN I HIT ABOUT 20 MPH MY TRUCK COMPLETELY STALLED. ALL POWER WAS ON AFTER STALL, BUT I HAD NO BRAKES, NO STEERING, AND NO ENGINE. LUCKILY IM A STRONG GUY AND HAD PLENTY OF ROOM TO KEEP A STRAIGHT LINE AND VERY FORCEFULLY APPLY THE NON POWERED BRAKES. IT STARTED RIGHT BACK UP SO I KIND OF SHRUGGED IT OFF. IT HAPPENED A FEW MORE TIMES SINCE THEN, SAME SYMPTOMS: SLOWING DOWN FOR A TURN OR A STOP.... ENGINE DIES, NO STEERING, NO BRAKES, DEAD TRUCK, STARTS RIGHT UP. HOWEVER LAST NIGHT CHRISTMAS DAY IT STALLED ON ME A QUARTER OF THE WAY THROUGH A LEFT HAND TURN AT ABOUT 15 MPH. I COULDN'T TURN THE WHEEL HARD ENOUGH TO FINISH MY TURN, I COULDN'T APPLY THE BRAKES HARD ENOUGH TO STOP IN A SAFE AMOUNT OF TIME, I DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC LANE. I HAD TO QUICKLY APPLY MY EMERGENCY BRAKE. STOPPING JUST IN TIME ABOUT 1 FOOT SHORT OF DRIVING INTO A GUARDRAIL WITH A STEEP EMBANKMENT ON THE OTHER SIDE. I AM LITERALLY SCARED TO DRIVE THIS TRUCK NOW, SCARED FOR MY LIFE AND OTHER PEOPLES LIVES. APPARENTLY THERE SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE TRUCKS STALLING, BUT NO RECALLS TO MY KNOWLEDGE OR DEFINITIVE PROBLEM HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED... PLEASE HELP! RESPECTFULLY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

• 12/27/2011· ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

  MY 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 4X4, 5.7 LITER HEMI STALLED WHILE DRIVING. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED WITHIN 3 MINUTES OF FILLING GAS TANK AND WHILE SLOWING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. SINCE THEN VEHICLE HAS STALLED WITHIN SEVERAL MINUTES OF EACH FILL-UP, (ONCE WHILE STILL AT THE PUMP) A TOTAL OF 4 TIMES. CAR HAS RESTARTED ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AND PROBLEM ONLY OCCURS AFTER REMOVING AND REPLACING GAS CAP. *TR

• 12/27/2009· ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

  I HAVE THE 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 WITH THE 5.7 HEMI. THE TRUCK INCONSISTENTLY STALLS FOR NO REASON. SOMETIMES AFTER FUELING UP THE MOTOR WILL SURGE AND SPUTTER BEFORE STALLING. MOST OF THE TIME THE MOTOR STARTS RIGHT BACK UP ONLY TO STALL AGAIN JUST A SHORT TIME LATER. OTHER TIMES THE MOTOR WILL NOT RESTART FOR SEVERAL MINUTES AND ATTEMPTS. IT ONLY STALLS WHEN TRAVELING BELOW 25MPH AND SITTING AT IDLE. I NOTICED IT NORMALLY IDLES AROUND 700RPM, BUT JUST BEFORE A STALL IT WILL DIP TO 500RPM AND FEEL AS IT THERE IS A SLIGHT MISS IN THE MOTOR. NOTHING I HAVE TRIED HAS FIXED THIS ISSUE AND THE REPAIR SHOPS HAVE FAILED TO DUPLICATE OR DIAGNOSE THIS PROBLEM. AFTER CHECKING AROUND I HAVE NOTICED THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AND I THINK DODGE SHOULD DO SOMETHING TO FIX THIS. WHENEVER THE ENGINE FAILS I LOSE STEERING AND BRAKES. LAST WEEK IT STALLED ON THE INTERSTATE WITH NO PULL OFF ROOM AND IT WOULD NOT RESTART FOR SEVERAL MINUTES NEARLY CAUSING A REAR END COLLISION BETWEEN A BIG RIG AND MYSELF. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

• 12/27/2004· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

  CAR STALLS WHEN DRIVING, NO REASON. NO CODES GENERATED PER DEALER. ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH HORN BEEPING AT RANDOM TIMES SOMETIMES DAYS APART. THIS TRUCK IS NOT DRIVEN FOR A WEEK AT TIMES. *AK THERE MAY BE A CORRELATION BETWEEN THE INTERMITTANT HORN SOUNDING AND THE FAILING IGNITION. THE SECURITY SYSTEM WIRING HARNESS AND KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM MAY BE TIED TO AN IGNITION KILL SWITCH WHEN THE DEFECTIVE KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM TRIGGERS THE HORN. WHEN DRIVING, THE HORN MAY NOT SOUND AS A KEY IS IN THE IGNITION AND/OR THE VEHICLE IS EXCEEDING 15 MPH MAY DISCONNECT THE FINAL CIRCUIT DRIVING THE HORN. REMNANTS OF A SECURITY SYSTEM WIRING MAY EXIST WHETHER OR NOT THE VEHILCLE COMES EQUIPPED WITH A SECURITY SYSTEM OR NOT. THIS WOULD EXPLAIN WHY NO FAILURE CODES ARE EVER FOUND. I WILL GO TO DEALER AND ASK THEM TO REPLACE KEYLESS ELECTRONIC MODULE TO STOP THE HORN FROM TRIGGERING AT RANDOM TIMES AND HOPEFULLY FIX STALLING PROBLEMS.

• 12/26/2006· ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING,POWER TRAIN

  TRUCK STARTED STALLING A FEW WEEKS AGO FOR MY WIFE. I FINALLY HAD THE CHANCE TO DRIVE IT AND IT FELL FLAT ON ITS FACE. MY ENTIRE FAMILY WAS ALMOST PUT INTO A TELEPHONE POLE AT 45 MPH SINCE THE TRUCK LOST ALL POWER. THIS TIME IT DIDN'T STALL IT JUST RAN WITH NO ACCELERATION AND HELD AT 4,000 RPMS. EXTENSIVE ATTEMPTS FOR COOPERATION BY DEALERSHIP AND DAIMLER CHRYSLER HAVE LED ME TO BELIEVE I BOUGHT A REALLY EXPENSIVE COFFIN. I ESTABLISHED THE TSB CODES W/ BOTH AND WAS LEFT HANSEN HIGH AND DRY. I GOT THAT " SURE WE'LL HELP, HERE' S A NEW TRUCK BUT WE CAN'T PAY OFF YOURS EVEN THOUGH WE SOLD IT TO YOU." AND THE" WE'RE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS EVEN THOUGH WE ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM IS OUR FAULT." I WILL NOT PURCHASE A DODGE VEHICLE AGAIN. SHAME ON DODGE!!!! I DON'T REALLY BLAME THE DEALERSHIP, BUT THEY THEMSELVES SHOULD HAVE CHECKED ALL THIS WITH THE TRUCK BEFORE SELLING IT TO ME. DAIMLER CHRYSLER REPRESENTATIVES WHO DECIDED THIS ISN'T A PROBLEM SHOULD BE MADE SHOULD BE PUNISHED BY LAW TO DRIVE THESE FAULTY VEHICLES UNTIL THEY ARE INJURED OR KILLED. MAYBE THEN THESE PROBLEMS WILL BE REPAIRED. *NM

• 12/24/2010· ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

  2004 DODGE RAM 4.7L AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. THE DESIGN OF THE RADIATORS WITH THE PLASTIC SIDES ON THE ALUMINUM RADIATOR CORE IS DEFECTIVE. DURING THE WINTER THE RADIATOR LEAKS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE NEAR THE COUPLING OF THE PLASTIC TO THE ALUMINUM. I THINK THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN SINCE VEHICLES CAN OVERHEAT WITHOUT PROPER ANTI-FREEZE LEVELS, AND LEAVE OWNERS STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF HIGHWAYS, AND ROADS. LET ALONE IT'S NOT GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT NOR ANIMALS THAT ENJOY THE TASTE OF ANTI-FREEZE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME WITH THIS TRUCK. I REPLACED THE RADIATOR WITH THE SAME TYPE A YEAR AGO, AND NOW IT'S DOING THE SAME THING AS BEFORE. THIS IS AN O.E.M. RADIATOR. *TR

  AFTER RECEIVING THE RECENT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE REGARDING AIR BAGS, I TOOK MY 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 QUAD CAB TO SOUTHERN DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM LOCATED IN NORFOLK, VA. MY VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED, AND I WAS INFORMED BY A REPRESENTATIVE THAT THE AIR BAGS WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE REP. ALSO STATED THAT THE REQUIRED PARTS WOULD BE ORDERED, BUT DUE TO A BACKLOG/SHORTAGE, IT WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS (MINIMUM) UNTIL THE REQUIRED PARTS ARRIVED. I INQUIRED ABOUT HAVING THE AIR BAGS DEACTIVATED AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION SINCE THEY MEET THE CRITERIA TO BE REPLACED. THE REPRESENTATIVE STATED IT WOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE TO DEACTIVATE THE AIR BAGS BECAUSE DOING SO WOULD VIOLATE FEDERAL REGULATIONS. I FIND IT HIGHLY UNACCEPTABLE THAT I NOW HAVE TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE, FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS (MINIMUM), WITH A KNOWN SAFETY DEFECT. *TR

• 12/21/2014· ENGINE

  I WAS DRIVING AND MY 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 4X4 SPUTTERED AND DIED WITHOUT WARNING. I WAS IN THE LEFT LANE, AND IT WAS ALL I COULD DO TO PULL IT TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD AS IT LOST POWER. I WAS HEADED UPHILL, SO I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND LET IT ROLL BACK BECAUSE I WAS BLOCKING AN ENTRANCE RAMP TO THE INTERSTATE. IT WAS 5 PM AND I WAS WESTBOUND, SO PEOPLE HAD DIFFICULTY SEEING MY HAZARD LIGHTS WHILE LOOKING INTO THE SUN. IT WAS SCARY! WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND GARAGE KEPT, THIS TRUCK BROKE AN ENGINE VALVE SPRING. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE ENGINE FAILS IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE THERE IS NO LONGER COMPRESSION IN THAT CYLINDER. I WAS LUCKY, THE SPRING HELD IN PLACE AND DID NOT ALLOW THE VALVE TO DROP INTO THE CYLINDER, WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC AND IRREPARABLE. AFTER RESEARCH, I FOUND DODGE KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM IN THE 2004 HEMI ENGINE. IN FACT, THEY REDESIGNED THE VALVE SPRINGS IN THE 2005 MODELS. SEVERAL SITES & BLOGS SHOWED OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT DODGE NEVER STARTED A CAMPAIGN OR ISSUED A RECALL. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER (DODGE) AND THEY REFUSE TO ASSIST OR ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM. IF THIS HAD OCCURRED ON A BUSY INTERSTATE, I COULD HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. WHEN THE ENGINE FAILED, I LOST POWER STEERING AND ANY ABILITY TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE. IF NEEDED, I HAVE ALL DOCUMENTATION, AND I ALSO HAVE THE BROKEN VALVE SPRING IN MY POSSESSION. *TR

THIS TRUCK HAS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHEN COMING TO A STOP DECIDED TO STOP RUNNING. (4-5 TIMES IN 2 YEARS)UNTIL YESTERDAY I WOULD TURN THE SWITCH OFF THEN RESTART AND I WOULD BE OKAY UNTIL THE NEXT TIME THE ENGINE WAS CHECKED FOR CODES BUT NONE WERE FOUND. AFTER READING OTHER PROBLEMS ON YOUR SITE WHY HAS THIS ISSUE NOT BEEN SOLVED? SOMEONE SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE "DODGE" AND THE PUBLIC SAFETY SHOULD BE #1 CONCERN...... I AWAIT YOUR RESPONSE TO THIS NOT SO UNCOMMON PROBLEM WITH SHUTDOWNS & STALLING ENGINES. *TR

  WENT TO FILL MY VEHICLE TANK AND GAS BEGAN TO SUDDENLY FLOW OUT OF FILLER HOSE. AFTER REMOVING AND VISUALLY INSPECTING THE FILLER HOSE AND REMOVING OTHER HOSES DURING TESTING IT WAS DETERMINED THAT A REPLACEMENT TANK WAS NEEDED. THE ON-BOARD REFUELING VAPOR RECOVERY (ORVR) VALVE STOPPED WORKING. AFTER CONSULTING A DEALERSHIP WITH THE DETAILS IT WAS CONFIRMED A NEW TANK WAS NEEDED. WHILE PLACING AN ORDER FOR THE TANK, I WAS TOLD FROM A FEW DEALERSHIPS THAT I WAS ON THE WAITING LIST. AFTER ANOTHER CALL FROM A LOCAL DEALERSHIP I WAS TOLD I AM NUMBER 85 ON BACK ORDER LIST TO RECEIVE A NEW FUEL TANK AND THAT WAS JUST FROM HIS DEALERSHIP. HE QUOTED " THEY HAVE NO ETA ON THAT TANK.RIGHT NOW THEY ARE WORKING ON TRUCKS THAT ARE VOR CONCERN FROM OTHER DEALERS FIRST. JUST WANTED TO KEEP YOU INFORMED." BETWEEN FUEL SPITTING OUT OF VEHICLE, TAKING 15 MINUTES TO PUT ONLY 10 GALLONS INTO TANK, AND MOST OF ALL A LARGE BACK ORDER NUMBER. I AM WONDERING OR REQUESTING A RECALL TO BE POSSIBLY PLACED.

  2004 RAM 1500 5.7 HEMI STALLS AT LOW ENGINE SPEEDS, OFTEN AT STOP SIGNS, TRAFFIC LIGHTS, OR PARKING LOT MANEUVERS. WILL USUALLY START IMMEDIATELY BACK UP, SOMETIMES REQUIRES SLIGHT ACCELERATOR PRESSURE WHEN CRANKING IN ORDER TO OBTAIN SELF-SUSTAINING ENGINE SPEED. DURING DECELERATIONS, ENGINE RPM IS ERRATIC AND WILL OFTEN ENCOUNTER A TRANSIENT DROP IN RPM'S TO APPROXIMATELY 400 RPM BEFORE ENGINE DIES. ISSUE SEEMS TO BE MORE COMMON AND SEVERE IN COLD WEATHER, OR WHEN ENGINE IS COLD, BUT HAS OCCURRED UNDER ALL CONDITIONS. THIS HAS BEEN A PERSISTENT PROBLEM FOR ABOUT TWO YEARS, HAPPENING ANYWHERE FROM ONCE A DAY TO A DOZEN TIMES. MULTIPLE DEALERSHIPS AND MECHANICS HAVE LOOKED AT THIS, WITHOUT RESULT. THE COMPUTER HAS BEEN UPDATED, THE SENSORS, EGR VALVE, AND INTAKE MANIFOLD CLEANED, AND THE THROTTLE BODY HAS BEEN REPLACED. STILL NOT FIXED. VEHICLE HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED AND HAS LESS THAN 55K MILES. THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE, DANGEROUS, AND FRUSTRATING CONDITION. *TR

• 12/19/2007· STEERING

  I NOTICED A POWER STEERING FLUID LEAK AND BROUGHT MY PICKUP IN TO DEALER FOR EVALUATION. NOTIFIED ME THAT MY POWER STEERING HOSES WERE SHOT. 29,780 MILES ON VEHICLE AND NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY SINCE THE HOSES HAD A REPAIR CLAMP INSTALLED FROM PRIOR FAILURE. 2 MONTHS LATER WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE WHEN MY PICKUP SUDDENLY LOST POWER STEERING CAPABILITIES. I WAS ABLE TO PULL VEHICLE OVER WITHOUT INCIDENT AND RETURNED TO DEALERSHIP THE SAME DAY AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT RACK/PINION WAS SHOT. NOT UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO 1 MONTH PAST 3YEAR WARRANTY PERIOD. 30,200MILES ON VEHICLE. SHOP FOREMAN ADVISED ME BEHIND CLOSED DOORS THAT THIS IS A CONTINUOUS PROBLEM WITH "NORTHERN AREA" RAM 1500'S AND THEY ALONE HAD SERVICED OVER 200 SIMILAR TYPE 1500 RAM VEHICLES WITH THE SAME POWER STEERING PROBLEMS I ALSO HAD JUST IN THE PAST 2-3 MONTHS! THE FOREMAN ALSO INFORMED ME THERE IS A 5-7 DAY BACKORDER ON RACK AND PINIONS BECAUSE THEY ARE IN HIGH DEMAND DUE TO THIS DODGE ENGINEERING PROBLEM. HE GAVE ME A NUMBER TO DODGE TO COMPLAIN, I CALLED WITH THE REPLY FROM DODGE AS "I'M SORRY BUT DUE TO YOUR WARRANTY BEING PAST BY 1 MO. WE WILL BE UNABLE TO GOODWILL ASSIST YOU WITH YOUR PROBLEM". I'M NOT BITTER BUT FEEL THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO DUE TO OBVIOUS SAFETY ISSUES. THANK YOU. *TR

  2004 DODGE RAM QUAD CAB WITH HEMI ENGINE. FOR SEVERAL YEARS HAS BEEN STALLING, WHEN I FINALLY REALIZED IT WAS STALLING SHORTLY AFTER FUELING AND LETTING THE FUEL HOSE CLICK OFF. I HAVE HAD IT TO THE DEALER 3X AND THE USUAL NO PROBLEM FOUND ANSWER WAS GIVEN. JUST RECENTLY AFTER STALLING IN AN INTERSECTION AFTER GETTING GAS I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER. THEY REPLACED THE VAPOR CANISTER, SOLENOID AND FLASHED THE COMPUTER WITH AN UPDATE. PICKED UP THE VEHICLE AND SAME THING HAPPENED STALLED WHILE TURNING INTO A GROCERY. TOOK IT BACK DEALER SAYS NO IDEA WHAT IT IS-SO THEY SAID ALL THAT IS LEFT IS TO CHANGE THE FUEL TANK ASSEMBLY, INCLUDING FUEL PUMP. I JUST FUELED UP, LET THE GAS HOSE CLICK OFF AND NOW I DON'T SEE THE STALL, AT LEAST AS YET. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS OUT THERE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRING EACH DAY AND PUTS FOLKS LIVES AT DANGER WHEN THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING SLOWLY AND/OR TURNING AT INTERSECTIONS ETC.

  MY 2004 DODGE RAM1500 V8 5.7 L ENGINE 2WD STALLS AT INTERSECTIONS IN COLD TEMPERATURES. ALSO AT TIMES WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS PRESSED THERE IS NO RMP INCREASE. THE STALLING IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS I AM AT AN INTERSECTION, I HAVE TO QUICKLY RESTART THE ENGINE AND HOPEFULLY NOT GET REARENDED. I FIRST NOTICED THIS PROBLEM AT APPROXIMATELY 60K. I TALKED TO MY MECHANIC WHO INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS A FUEL SYSTEM PROBLEM WITH DODGE 2003 AND 2004 1500 V8 5.7 L ENGINES FOR TRUCKS. HE DIRECTED ME TO A WEB SITE WERE I DISCOVERED SEVERAL SUB SITES WITH PEOPLE DESCRIBING THE SAME PROBLEMS I AM EXPERIENCING. ENGINE STALLING IN COLD TEMPERATURES AT INTERSECTIONS WITH THEIR 2003 AND 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 V8 5.7L ENGINES. SOME OF THEM DID GET INTO CRASHES UNABLE TO AVOID GETTING REARENDED. I WAS ALSO INFORMED BY MY MECHANIC THAT BOTH 2WD AND 4WD TRUCKS WITH THE 1500 V8 5.7 L ENGINES HAD THIS FUEL SYSTEM PROBLEM. MY TRUCK STALLING IS NUMEROUS DAILY, SOME TIMES 2 OR 3 TIMES IN THE MORNING ON THE WAY TO WORK, AND AGAIN 2 OR 3 TIMES ON THE WAY HOME. WHAT I HAVE DISCOVERED IS IF I ALLOW THE ENGINE TO WARM UP, APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES, I WON'T STALL. TO BE SAFE FROM GETTING REARENDED IT'S BEST I WASTE A LITTLE GAS EACH TIME I START THE ENGINE. MY MECHANIC ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THE PROBLEM HAS TO DO WITH AN IMPROPER THROTTLE BODY. THE REPAIR WOULD BE TO REMOVE THE IMPROPER THROTTLE BODY AND INSTALL A PROPER THROTTLE BODY. I DID CONTACT MY DODGE DEALERSHIP AND TALKED TO THE SERVICE MANAGER, (WHO SHALL NOT BE NAMED PER YOUR REQUEST), WHO INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY VIN NUMBER, OF MY TRUCK, BUT WOULD NOT TELL ME IF THEIR WERE ANY RECALLS ON ANY 2003 OR 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 V8.5.7 L ENGINES FOR AN IMPROPER THROTTLE BODY CAUSING STALLING IN COLD TEMPERATURES WHEN COMING TO A STOP AT AN INTERSECTION. I AM GOING TO PAY MY DEDUCTIBLE AT THE DEALERSHIP AND GET MY TRUCK SAFE, BUT I ALSO WANT TO BE REIMBURSED. THIS IS UNSAFE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. THANK YOU! *TR

  TRUCK LOST ALL POWER, THROTTLE LAMP BLINKING. STALLED ON ROADWAY, WOULD START BUT WOULD NOT GIVE THROTTLE TO MOVE THE TRUCK. TURNED KEY OFF THEN BACK ON A FEW TIMES AND WOULD LET ME APPLY THROTTLE FOR A FEW SECONDS, THEN BACK TO NO POWER. I DID THIS A FEW TIMES JUST TO GET OFF THE ROADWAY. THERE IS NO THROTTLE CABLE SO IT IS A COMPUTER CONTROL PROBLEM. *TR
