Purchased a used 2008 dodge ram 1500 big horn p/u truck from mooresville motor company in mooresville, nc, last week.i noticed the recall on the carfax and "assumed" it had been repaired.i went to www.moparconnect.com and looked up the recall using the vin.the status states that the driver airbag inflator must be replaced, and that the repair parts are available.i placed a call to the chrysler group recall assistance center and was told that the parts are not available..... I am very concerned and upset.the young lady at the assistance center told me that the parts were still being tested and that there is no estimated date that they will be available??????so......what if we have an accident and the airbag deploys and seriously or fatally harms someone?????this vehicle should not have been allowed to have been sold, period!not until the parts are available!!!!i am now afraid to ride or drive this vehicle and i definitely don't want my children or grandchildren in it.i need to know when will parts be available; what do i drive until then; and why was this vehicle even sold???

Takata recall-approx. 1 year old we received notice that there might be a problem with the driver side airbag. This week we received a confirmation notice that our 2008 dodge ram 1500 was indeed part of the recall. We immediately contacted our dealership, and was told it would be at least a 7 month delay!! what happens if that airbag deploys before we can have it replaced???

On about 5 different times my accelerator pedal has gotten stuck and accelerating to about 90 plus mph while on the highway. I had to stomp on it several times to get it unstuck. I have seen where other people have had the same problem as mine. However the dodge dealer in baytown texas said they have not gotten any recalls on this problem and can not do anything for me until there is a recall. Also i was told about the airbag recall and they also have told me that they will not do any repairs until i receive a recall notice by mail which i still have not received. We have had problems receiving our mail due to new mail carriers put the wrong mail in different mail boxes. So what can i do to address this problem before i am in and accident and injury orkill someone and or myself. I have also had some issues with my steering.

I was pulling out of a shopping mall turning left on the hwy 5 in holly springs ga when i was struck by another vehicle that ran a red light. The impact to my truck was just in front of the drivers side front wheel. The bumper was crushed all the way to the frame and the frame was bent over 1 foot. The truck had both front and side air bags and none of them went off. My head hit the side of the drivers window and doctors are saying i may need both shoulder and neck surgery. I believe this would not be the case if the air bags had deployed. While i was not traveling very fast,the other car was traveling fast enough to total my truck

I have a 2008 dodge ram 1500 with 37,000 miles on it. On february 15, 2010 i was involve in a accident where the other vehicle failed to yield and pulled out in front of me causing the accident. My complaint is that i figure the at the point of impact ( which was the front of my 2008 dodge ram ) i was traveling about forty five miles an hour and my air bags never deployed, although the air bags did deploy on the other vehicle. I did receive spinal injuries and will know more about that tomorrow 02/19/10 when i meet with the surgeon but in the meantime the insurance company is having my truck repaired and i can't get an answer from anyone of why the airbags did not deploy or if they even will in the event of another accident. This is a scary situation for me due to the fact that it will be my loved ones that will be riding in this potential unsafe vehicle.

Takata recall, my complaint is the airbags, nothing has happened, but this is on the recall list, so i want it fixed so i will not end up dying due to neglect. Does something have to happen in order for repair work to take place - really

Both left and right tie rods failed at 3 years old and 4 years old and we replaced them out of pocket. All 4 o2 sensors failed at 5 years old but dealer failed to diagnose this correctly while the truck was still under warranty and we had to replace these and the pcm, which burnt out because of the defective o2 sensors, after the truck was not under warranty any more. The airbags are defective and chrysler does not have the parts to fix it and we can't sell the vehicle as it is. Chrysler states it is not part of the buyback and now we are stuck with an unsafe vehicle that we can't sell.

Takata recall my vehicle was shipped from north carolina in humidity and hot sun for an extended period of time- approx two of those years was consistent humidity and high temperatures without being driven. I am now due to relocate to california and i am requesting my truck be repurchased by manufacturer due to the extended period of time awaiting these parts to be available. Carmax sold me this truck knowing these safety recalls were open and never told me! i never would have purchased this vehicle knowing it's putting my family lives at risk. There is also a third rear brake light water leak which i was told to replace rear window! only to still have puddles under my seat - now floor warped and smells like mold. Manufacturers is well aware of this defect as i see complaints about this with other dodge ram owners! all as frustrated as me due to dodge first replacibg rear electric windiw which costs $600 -$1100before finally telling customer it's a $3 gasket repair which dodge will not sell you! they want to charge labor and make more money to do this fix! it needs to be recalled.

My air bags do not work, i had it checked at agency and they said it's a switch in the steering column. It has been 2 months now and every time i call the agency they say it's back ordered. What can i do?

I recently had an accident where the air bags did not deploy. Causing me to get over 30 stitches in my lower lip and chin. Im concerned as if this should happen in a more serious accident the damage would be much more so.

After i refuel, whether it's 10 gal. Or top it off, the truck will stall everytime as i drive just the first several miles(maybe as soon as 100 yards or up to 10-12 miles or so). It only happens when i come to a stop, like at a red light or at low speed making a turn. It always starts back up, not always easily though. Of course when this happens, power brakes and power steering is lost. This has put me in a couple of dangerous situations while making a turn and suddenly lose power steering. After it's stalled several (4-5) times, it seems to recover until i refuel again and we start all over. This is definitely a major safety issue and a recall needs to happen to finally fix this recurring problem that has been happening for some time now. I purchased this vehicle new and didn't have a problem for the first 40,000 or so miles.it now has 65,000 miles and this problem re-occurs with every single refuel.

My truck has randomly been malfuctioning for almost 2 years, while driving the posted speeds 45-75mph the tuck has stalled out causing me to lose all power with my infant daughter i have run into a ditched, nearly escaped other passenger collisons i have had the interior lights and dash lights shut off while driving at night time on non-lit roads forcing me off the road thankfully no imjuries have occuried, it is all due to a faulty tipm that dodge refuses to acknowledge and wont file a recall your company claims that there is no safety defect to warrant a recall from the tipm, but how many people will have to die families and children for dodge to fix the issue, it is a huge safety issue i wont put my child back in the truck and i wont drive it by myself, its almost impossible to to steer my vehicle when i lose all power without warning doing 65mph hours on a freeway, it is by the grace of god i am still alive and havent been seriously injured and im not willing to keep taking the risks

This vehicle has given me many problems and most recently very dangerous ones. A few months ago on my way to work around 4am the drive shaft broke off and flew out at 75 mph. Luckily there wasn't much traffic during that time and the back part of the drive shaft is the one that broke off not the front so the truck didn't flip over. The truck has been repaired since then.now a few days ago my pregnant wife was driving the truck and it turned off on her in the middle of an intersection while i was working out of town. On my return i found the electric throttle control light on at the dashboard. In doing some research i found that this is typically in relation to a bad fuel pump relay. I found this to be more than common on many dodge vehicles and obviously a very dangerous problem to have. The fuel pump relay on my vehicle seems to be integrated into the tipm and not serviceable. There also seems to not be a recall for this problem. It now appears i am being forced to spend $1200 on a manufacturer defect. This vehicle has gone from being my daily commuter to a huge liability because i am not sure what will happen next.

Driving at a speed of 45 mph the truck--2008 dodge ram 1500 5.7 hemi-- died. I had no power steering. I was able to shift into neutral and stop. Very thankful i was on a country lane and not on a freeway because there was no warning and i could have been in a horrible accident. The check gauges light icon was flashing as i tried to re-start it. It would crank but not start. After waiting for 15 minutes it did start up again. The engine icon light was showing and it said that an oil change was needed. The oil change wasn't due yet for another 1000 miles, or, two weeks on my three month schedule. I get the oil changed every three months. It tried to stall from then on as i accelerated from a stop, on my way to to the dealer. The diagnostic showed a code for the egr valve, which was replaced. This was fixed four days ago and so far so good, but am very anxious when i drive now, worrying that it might happen again, especially after seeing so many posts online with others experiencing the same problem with their dodge ram trucks.this truck has 35,300 miles on it. This truck was serviced six weeks before this incident with: a 16 cylinder hemi tune-up; a throttle body service, fuel induction flush and fuel system treatment; transmission service with filter change;machined front and rear rotors; and tire rotation.

I was driving with my 4 kids in the truck .problem started with my speedometer fluctuating while on the interstate going 65mph then suddenly fell to 0 and stayed there.i then started to smell a foul smell resembling natural gas.my abs light, e brake light and engine light came on.took nearest exit and pulled over to see what was wrong.turned truck off then back on and all lights went away but speedo still not working.continued driving to get it home then the truck started surging when i would let off the gas but would go away when i pressed the gas.decided i needed to pull over again. I proceeded to the turning lane going 35pmh when all of sudden the rear end locked up and started fishtailing and spinning till it came to a stop.luckily cars around me swerved around me to prevent from getting hit.rear axle is leaking fluid and really bad smell.had to get a flat bed to pull it on and off and unloaded at my house.thankfully myself and my kids are safe.unfortunately my 2008 ram 1500 quad cab does not fall under the 2009-2012 recall with the same pinion retaining nut backing out due to no loctite "adhesive" causing it to lock up.all i was told by chrysler was to save any repair receipts in the event the recall gets expanded.my local dodge dealer wants me to tow my truck and charge me $101.89 just to diagnose it just to tell me it's the rear pinion locking nut :/but they were sure to let me know of the windshield wiper motor that was under recall that i should get fixed....i think this is a bit more important than a wiper motor.nhtsa campaign # 13v038000/expansion recall # 12v-474/chrysler campaign n08 states dodge rams manufactured between february 2008 to june 2009 fell under the recall though my truck was manufactured july 2008 yet it doesn't apply????!

Discovered manufacturing defect at electrical plug that sits above left bank where the exhaust manifold meets the exhaust pipe. Furthermore, the connector sits right between the block and the firewall. The connector and it's wiring have an extreme turn off of the plug and created such tension that the plastic convoluted tubing was pulled back from the wiring. All of the wiring to approximately 6' back from the connector is bare and the wires are touching one another. I feel that if the route of the wiring had less of an extreme bend and there was something to secure the wiring was in place, there wouldn't be this concerning issue. I have contacted my local dealership and the fca and they refuse to look at it without charging me money. I am an electrician by trade and i fear that this could affect a multitude of vehicles. The truck will randomly shutdown while driving regardless of speed,, and when sitting idle at times. Also, there are times when the transmission fails to react to the commands given with the gear selector. I'm unsure whether this is related or not.

Lately i have been having problem starting my 2008 dodge ram 1500. The vehicle lights up like it's going to start, then when i turn the key over there's nothing. I have continued trying to crank the vehicle numerous times and after 10-20 min of waiting the vehicle starts like nothing was wrong. This has happened numerous times in the past. I wish i never bought this truck now .

During the 5yr inspection was told the lt wheel hub assembly needed replaced due to bearings worn with appx 50000 mileselectrical/engine;when driving going over rough surface, bump or rxr tracks the jarring can cause the truck to loose power shutting down all pwr steering and brakes this has happened on multi occasions. When trying to duplicate unable to cause shutdown.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. While driving 20 mph, the turn signals, brakes, and tails lights failed. In addition, the contact stated that the wheel hubs failed causing the vehicle to shake. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the body control module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 10e040000 (wheels). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 118,000.

My 2008 dodge ram 1500 truck is having issues with the turn signals. My turn signals work 25% of the time and 50% of the time they do work, they activate the opposite side (wrong side) i am trying to select. I have visited many internet sites that discuss this problem, and i have found that this issue is a major safety problem that will lead to accidents. I feel this turn signal problem should lead to a chrysler recall as it is a design defect.

Truck has had multiple incidents of stalling and shutting off with no advance warning or notice. I come to a stop or turn and the engine shuts off. Power steering is lost and even though it starts right back up when put on neutral it has started to worry me to the point where i no longer feel safe driving this vehicle for fear this may happen on the highway. I've had throttle work done and wires replaced but it continues to do the same thing and no codes appear as to what may be causing this problem. The dealer also cannot tell me the reason why this is happening.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. The contact stated that after parking the vehicle, the rear passenger side power window switch caught on fire. The fire department was called and was able to extinguish the fire. The origin of the fire was declared to be the electrical switch. A fire report was filed. The vehicle was driven to the dealer who advised that they would contact the manufacturer to get approval for the repairs. The dealer was still waiting on the approval to proceed with repairs. The failure mileage was 39,000.updated 09/07/2011 *ln

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. While driving 35 mph, the contact turned on the left signal; however, the right signal came on instead. The vehicle had not been inspected or repaired when the complaint was filed. The contact wanted nhtsa to intervene as a third party mechanic. The vin was unavailable. The current and failure mileages were approximately 22,000.

When the wipers were turned on then off they "park" straight up. When it was brought to the dealer's attention they said the recall was already done in 2009 and they would charge to fix the wiper control module. They also charged to diagnose.

While driving,gas pedal went to floor. Rpm's 5000. Warning light ( electronic throttle control ) came on and remained on for the mile it took to get my truck to be back under control in order to stop. While in neutral,and in park, the tires continued to spin and rpm's remained constant.no correction was done by chrysler/jupiter dodge mazda/ as per chrysler they would be admitting liability because they cannot prove that this happened.i have driven the vehicle for the 2nd time today. It has not happened again although i am afraid if it did, there may be consequences that were unlike the first time. I was instructed by my owners manuel and the dealer service dept to have the truck towed through roadside assistance. The truck was towed to dealer on indiantown road in jupiter, florida. Thank you.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. While driving at approximately 35 to 40 mph, when the vehicle veered left or right, the steering wheel was difficult to turn and the rpm level decreased.

The approximate failure mileage was 65,000.

My wife and 2 kids (4yr and 6yr) were driving over railroad tracks at about 25 miles per hour when suddenly the car turned off. Power steering and brakes were suddenly no longer available and my wife steered in the middle of an intersection before she came to a halt. Luckily nothing happened. She switched the transmission into p, the car started flawlessly and she parked it to call her mom to pick her up.i then got to the car and wondering what might have happened. Reading about ignition locks causing this symptom, i lightly tugged on the ignition key while idling. The car turned off easily. Knowing my wife puts whichever car key she needs on her key chain, i suspected that this may have been the problem. I tried it out and -sure enough- repeated the event. She normally drives her 2013 jeep wrangler which has the identical type of ignition switch. This one however does not turn off the car when one pulls on the key while the car is idling in gear.i was surprised when i did not find a lot on issues with dodge ignition switches and would never describe this occurrence on a 7 year old car, if it hadn't been so terrifying. Never did i feel so unprotected! losing power and becoming a widower is really just one small tug away....thought i shared.... Ps: of course i will get a new ignition switch.

I just purchased this vehicle and within a week the key wouldn't go into the ignition and once in wouldn't come back out. The vehicle shuts off randomly locking the power steering and brakes. My right turn signal now doesn't go off and when i try to put it off my self the left turn signal activates! this went on back and forth a good eight times before both shut off. My front headlights (mostly right but cannot really see the left while driving) the lights shakes and bounces when i go over anything uneven. Upon coming to a sudden stop the truck pulled hard to the right causing me to swerve into the grass. This vehicle just doesn't drive right. The whole front end seems loose. I cannot drive over 50 or the rear end comes off the ground when i brake to make my turn. I'm taking it to the dealer this evening. My dealer 30 day warranty expires tomorrow. The 3 year 36000 manufacturer warranty is up since three years are gone - although the vehicle only has 31864 miles now. I cannot afford to make repairs while still financed. I'm a single mother of four and always have my four year old in the truck. It's to the point i no longer trust driving this truck.

2008 dodge ran 1500.we were leaving from a parking lot.turned on vehicle and it revved to high rpms. Tires peeled rubber, had foot on break. Had to shut off to get it to stop. Had it checked at dealership and they found nothing. This was very scary and something was indeed wrong. We are again driving this vehicle as it is the only one we have and we sure hope this does not happen again.

My truck caught on fire in engine area , engulfed back to the box whole truck destroyed! inspector not know what caused fire. Truck was totaled. Stationary for two hours at work.

About 40% of the time when locking/unlocking the vehicle (either from the door control switch or the remote), the locking motor cycles over and over again.i've taken it to a couple of dodge dealerships service departments and have been told they can't duplicate the problem even though a technician was standing right there when it happened. I was told this could potentially overheat and catch fire! this started happening within the first year of purchasing the vehicle new.

2008 dodge ram 1500, the tipm module has burned up once already and after being replaced twice now we are smelling a burning smell again, when this happens the vehicle will not shift into or out of 4x4 (depending on what it is in when it occurs) it also causes loss of engine power, the windshield wipers quit, the air bag warning light goes on, the headlights dim way down, all the lights on the dash start flickering and all warning lights light up.this is very dangerous if this happens while driving down the highway at night and it is snowing or raining (which happens alot here in washington in the winter)the "fixes" the dealerships have done (two different places) have never lasted a day, we just got the vehicle back from repairs and we are again smelling a burning smell nd it is doing it all over again.

Back in approximately october of 2010 my daughter (18 years old) was driving my 2008 ram 1500 pickup , when making a right turn the engine shut off. She was able to put it in neutral and restart the vehicle and proceed on her way . This happened a few more times until she told me about it . I noticed she had a small purse type device that holds her license, credit cards & change attached to the key fob. I believe the weight of this purse caused the purse to shut the ignition off. I instructed her not to put anything on the key fob and the problem has not recurred. You may want to see ifthere are the same complaints by other ram owners and have chryslersend a mailer out not to have anything attached to their key fobs.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. Contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the rear windows and rear doors ceased without warning. Ron tonkin chrysler jeep dodge ram fiat (16800 se mcloughlin blvd., milwaukie, or 97267 (503) 258-5800) was contacted and informed of the failure.

The contact was informed that the wiring harness needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was contacted and informed of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 145,000.

I purchased the vehicle new and the first time i used the 4x4 auto the vehicle began to fail. It would stay in 4x4 for awhile then it would engage the 4x4 lock. I have had trouble getting it fixed because of a lack of supply of the required part. Also the windshield wipers went out and it was a 2 weeks before they could get that part in. I have not had any luck with the customer support at dodge at all.

I bought a new 2008 dodge pick up 1500, with a v-6 manual transmission, 5 months later, with 7000 miles on the odometer, i was driving down a road at 45 mph, all the instrumentation flickered, then quit as well the engine quit, coasted to a stop on the side of the road, and there was a fire under the hood, called the fire department, they put the fire out.no one was hurt, but the vehicle is in bad shape, it has not been modified in any way, it is 100% the way chrysler made it.now, chrysler has refused to warrant this problem, saying they can find "no indication of a manufacturing defect".this is so wrong, i am so upset, my truck has been sitting in their back lot for 7 weeks now, and they will not fix it, will not take any phone calls or anything, it is like they are an untouchable ghost.

Timp failure

In extreme cold weather, the vehicle does not start. When turning the key to the start position, the engine will crank and stop, crank and stop. Even when allowing the key to snap back to the run position, it continues to crank and stop, crank and stop. This condition stops when turning the key to the off position. After 7 or 8 tries, the engine will eventually start and when the vehicle is warm, the condition cannot be duplicated. One note, after the cranking and stopping, if i turn the key to the off position and back to the run position, i hear clicking coming from the dash even before trying to start it again. Another issue is wind noise. Under windy conditions and at high speeds, i can hear wind escaping past the weatherstrip in both front doors. I brought it to the dealer and they told me it was a normal condition. As for the cold starting condition, i have an appointment with the dealer to have it inspected.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500.the contact stated that while activating the left turn signal, the right turn signal activated. The failure occurred on several occasions.the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure.the failure and current mileage was 41,000.

The truck has less than 30,000 miles and needs a new tipm per dodge dealership diagnostics. Every light on the dash will flash and the gauges become disabled. Sometimes it is continuous sometimes it's only for a few seconds. The cargo lights will come on in the middle of the night and will drain the battery. The gauge lights come on when sitting in park, while driving and even when the truck hasn't been in use. Random electrical functions will blink.

When driving the truck gives no warning everything just shuts off and i loose all power. I can't steer the car or break very easy. This has happened to me now twice. It is very scary and my dealer who sold me the truck brand new said he has heard of this with the model i bought.

When putting my turn signal lever to the left my right turn signal comes on.sometimes the left will be working then it will switch over to the right. Turn my right blinker on and it stos then comes on again stops etc.just never know what is going o happen.village motors from millersburg oh said it was the wiring harness which they replaced 2 yers ago when i had the same problem.

Intermittent shut down at any time.crank position sensor wire shorting out against engine block.poor design, wire should be enclosed in such away there is no chance of this occurring.

My truck has quit functioning 3 different times (days).all dash lights come on and there is no communication between the accelerator pedal and engine.most times it is still running but i cannot make the vehicle move.the last time the engine died completely and i could not restart the vehicle.i have had it towed 3 times to the dealership, they have made repairs based on what they thought was wrong, only to have it stop exactly the same 4 or 5 days later. The first repair was condenser, oil pressure regulator and battery cable, the second repair was the brain. This third time they have had the truck for 3 days and yesterday they called and said they do not know what is wrong, it doesn't give them codes when on computer.i do not feel confident nor safe to drive a truck that just stops when i'm driving.i have found other complaints on a website carcomplaints.com and have found 10 other complaints with very similar vehicle problem. I am leaving work each time this happens and am thankful i am not traveling home during rush hour; i'd likely cause an accident. It has been very expensive almost $2000. And still no truck. First occurrence about 10nov, 2nd occurrence about 16nov, 3rd was 5dec.

In september 2015 my truck engine shut off on i-20 w after a hard brake at highway speed while approaching a trailer with a wide load on a bridge overpass. I was the lead vehicle and had the left lane momentarily blocked until i could restart the engine. After shifting to park, it took two attempts to restart the engine. Then, in december 2015 the exact same thing happened in the city after a moderate stop at a red light, again holding up traffic until the engine was restarted. After traveling about one tenth mile the engine quit again as i was approaching a red light. The first instance was a hard break situation to prevent an accident but the second two shutdowns happened with light breaking when approaching a red light. When the engine had to be restarted, it required a couple of attempts before it would engage and then ran rough for a short time before smoothing out. Each instance was while i was driving in a straight line. The first time at highway speed of 70mph and the last two at 30 or 40 city mph. I have not had a problem with this since the last time but i have been extremely careful to lightly apply the brakes when possible. I read on the internet that i am not the only one that has had this problem so that prompted me to file this report.i feel the problem is associated with a engine electronic control of some sort or other. The engine is the veriable 5.7l hemi. My wife has been so upset with this happening, she refuses to ride in my truck anymore. I have not reported this problem, mostly because i have been in the market for a new truck. But, i don't want to trade until i find out if this problem is subject to a recall. This all happened after i had my truck serviced for the air bag recall.

The wires in the wire bundles on the rear quad cab doors continue to break when opening the back doors overtime which causes the door locks, speaker, power windows, and alarm system not to function.this has now become a common problem on multiple year dodge ram trucks. The wire bundles should be recalled and fixed free of charge.this has happened to my vehicle twice now, and it is expensive to have the dealer fix the wires when you know they are going to break again.there should be a recall for this defect.search youtube and find multiple videos on what causes this problem.example videos here:02 dodge ram 1500 quad cab - broken rear power locks, speaker, window motor.

Timp failure

Went to check my tire pressures and took valve stem cover off and it snapped the top of the valve stem off even with the top of the valve stem....2 other valve stem covers are also seizedon the valve stems on the truck.. Called dealer and they informed me that dodge knows about this problem and they have replaced hundreds of them and the only way to replace them is to put another sensor in for 75 bucks cause they can not put regular valve stems in vehicles that have tpms sensors in them...they have not heard of any recalls to date nor could i find any online...this is a obvious problem with many dodge vehicles with this metal valve stem and needs to be corrected.

Vibration and bouncing- wobble feeling with loose steering at speeds 55-70, from front wheels through steering wheel. Tires have been re-balanced several times as the possible cause but truck continues to have vibrations in front wheels at speeds 55 or higher. Continual brake noise, rattling sounds at all speeds after brakes have been applied 2-3 times under normal traffic conditions.

Traveling approx 35 mph when engine suddenly just stopped running. No warning symptoms. Had to coast acoss 3 lanes of traffic to get off the road no power steeringand on coming traffic, with 3 young children in the back seat.timing chain tension "came apart" derailing timing chain. Catastrophic engine damage.word is this is known to happen on the dodge 5.7 hemi engines.2008 with 90k miles. Seems this should be manufactures responsibility. Help me please.

While coasting to a stop light from 45mph, engine shut down loosing power steering, thus 100% control of vehicle.truck stopped in the intersection blocking 3 lanes of traffic.no check engine light lit up, although did notice rpm fluctuated just prior to episode.truck started up shortly thereafter, i continued on my way, no clue's on what occurred.

Engine died without warning going slow on bumpy road, turning left. Lost all steering and brakes. Had just filled tank. Started right back up. Very dangerous situation. I am now afraid to drive it. I see many other complaints of the same nature.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled while driving 70 mph. The electronic control module warning illuminated as the failure occurred. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence and was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure and current mileage was 122,000.

Several times now after starting the truckand running it 10-15 minutes it just shuts off. Today on a very busy 4 lane road it happened and nearly caused a crash due to no power steering. Shops have checked it and it does not show in code errors.

Intermittent random stallingof vehicle. Has happened multiple times and at various speed. Occurred once after a sudden stop, then the engine stalled. Has happened when turning corner at slow speed, engine stalled. This has happened many times but not on any regular basis so that i could have it investigated.

I was driving in the middle lane of traffic at 70 mph when my 4wl lite flashed,i heard a loud bang and my truck jerked violently, i thought i had been rear ended. My truck immediately slowed down to 30mph right after the loud noise. I then had to get across two lanes of speeding freeway traffic to avoid an accident or worse. After i made it to the shoulder of the road and calmed my nerves, i did damage assessment and discovered that my truck had shifted itself into four wheel low at 70 mph. I limped my truck home, stuck infour wheel low, called a tow truck and took it to my dodge dealer. Almost two years later and numerous trips back to various dealerships to get this warranty work fixed, and out thousands of dollars the problem has never been fixed and chrysler considers the case closed. I'm afraid now after this incidentto take my truck on the freeway as i feel it is not safe for me or the drivers around me. Next time i may not be so lucky.

The truck stalls after filling with fuel. It can happen at any time; stalled in a turn causing the loss of power steering; stalled at stops; causes bucking. At no other time does the truck have these issues. I have heard of other having this issue with this model and others such as jeep, etc. Regarding the "when did this happen?" question below, it happens at 95+% of fill-ups. The last time it happened was 6/1/19.

I have reported this same problem numerous times before. The engine just quits on the highway with a loss of steering and braking. It seems to happen after refueling and a strong odor of fuel is noticed. This happened within 2 or 3 minutes after refueling and while approaching interstate 35 in waco, tx, on 11/30/2018. An inquiry was made to the local dealership who said they were unaware of the problem and that no complaints have been filed with them. In reviewing other consumer websites that is not true, there are numerous complaints about this same problem and it is definitely a critical safety issue. It is time for the government to investigate this issue before someone is killed or seriously injured.

The engine stalls and cuts off without any warning. I've had it at 4 different auto repair shops including 3 weeks at landmark dodge and no one can determine what is going on with it. I've had the fuel pump replaced and cylinders replaced.it's crazy andd very frustrating that dodge can't fix their own product.

Takata recallcentral valley dodge jeeo modesto,ca has failed to help me

Took my truck to a local dealership bc my engine light came on & started to blink & ding.barely made it there & so they checked it & said the rocker arm needs replacing.so they ordered it & said its on back order & that there were 600 ahead of me.if it's so many that need this part, it should be a recall on it.i've been waiting for 3 1/2 weeks & still idon't have my truck.

Engine shuts off after every fill up at the gas station if vehicle is placed in a moderately hard stop or making a right hand turn on a freeway on ramp or city street causing the engine to shut off completely and leaving vehicle in motion without power to steering and brakes. This has happened more time than i can remember.

After filling up with fuel on serval different occasions the truck will shut off with no warning lights or service lights. This causes the power steering and everything to stop. When at a stop sign it can be started safely from park or neutral but when moving it has to be put in neutral to re start because the brake system does not work good either. It has happened at stop sign and stop light as well as driving down the road at 55 mph

The engine randomly dies.at idle ordriving, at all speeds.it starts right back up.i have had the truck worked on at 4 shops and two dealerships.i have spent over $10,000 string to get the problem fixed.it is a very dangerous situation.i have been trying to resolve this problem for 3 years.

After filling with gas, truck stalls at high and low speeds....vehicle dies hence no power steering, brakes etc.......has happened multiple times..... Can throw into neutral and ignition functions....super dangerous at any speed.

The truck has developed a habit of randomly stalling when coming to a stop. This is dangerous at intersections and railroad crossings. I have had the truck back to the dealer several times without success.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. The contact stated that while driving 55 mph, the vehicle exhibited an abnormal humming noise. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnosis but they were unable to duplicate the problem. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was not notified. The vin was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 36,000.

Front wheel bearings went out and yhe egr valve went out also

When i start my vehicleit has a ticking sound.

Rear pinion nut came loose and drive shaft fell off and truck made abrupt stop rear end locked up

For several months, while driving the truck, it would try and go into 4w drive low.we changed the actuator and it seemed to work for about a week.then problems became worse.again it would go into 4w drive low while driving. But also when we stopped at intersections it would move at all.we would shut the truck off then it would go. We would hear a whining sound after the truck was shut off about 30 minutes coming under the truck. The end of julywe had to change the fuel pump.then we had to change the radiator and thermostat.we had it at 3 different mechanics before finding the problem of it going into 4w drive low.it was the timp and the transfer case.we have had to replace the actuator 3 times.

Rocker arm came off lifter, broken lifter spring. Told it was a common valve seat failure issue for this vehicle. 147,000 regular maintenance was performed. Shop said they have seen this many times. Poor design/material.

Truck stalls out for no reason.tends to happen when slowing down and at lower speeds.loose power steering and control.i have since changed the throttle body.truck still stalls.

While driving engine just shuts off. Had to put in n to restart. Had no brakes or steering. Happened 3 times now. Dealer got code p0884 said it was fixed, but happened two more times after that.afraid to drive truck now. Will only go short distance. Please can we get this issue fixed.

When the vehicle is filled completely with fuel, the engine will die when the vehicle is slowed down to stop of turn.

Complete loss of power to vehicle, including powertrain, steering.power loss occurred previously when driving and hitting a bump (pot hole).last event happened during normal steering into driveway.speeds varied during occurrences.top speed was approximately 55 mph.

On 1/19/17 i made a 7 mile round trip drive, returned to our house and parked on the street.about 10 minutes later after making my lunch i opened facebook to see a notification that a truck was on fire on my street.i walked out my front door to see what was going on only to find the leander fire department putting out the fire involving my dodge ram. The assistant fire chief believes it started by the master cylinder.

The truck began stalling while shifting from reverse to drive.it is now happening when shifting from drive to park.there are no codes in the computer and the check engine light does not come on.when this happens, i loose power steering.the truck always re-starts right away.

Driving in heavy traffic the engine stopped.i coasted to the roadside and restarted after sitting about 15 minutes.this has happened about 5 times since then.i took it to an auto mechanic who could find nothing after 1 hour of road testing and truck engine computer readouts.

Waterpump impeller shattered.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. While traveling 40 mph on rough terrain the contact traveled over a bump and noticed that the vehicle had suddenly shut off. The vehicle was taken to the dealership where the computer was updated; however, the failure continued to occur. There were no prior warnings. The failuremileage was 26000 and the current mileage was 27000.

I bought a 2008 dodge 1500 st quad cab pickup truck new in november of 2008. In february of 2010 cranked my truck one morning an the truck made a loud tapping noise on the passenger, then stopped. I contacted the dodge dealership and explained what happened. Because it was out of warranty i had to make arrangement for a loaner. I brought the truck in on 07/19/2008 at 10:00 a.m. And they called me and said they completed the work which included removing the cam shaft and installing a new one and the rack lifters on the passenger side. The truck has 57,000 miles and oil is changed every 4,200 miles. There was no explanation to why this happen but i am very disappointed and truly dissatisfied with the run around i received. My driver door is another problem which occur two weeks after i received the truck. They adjusted the doors 4 times and now they are saying because of the mileage that is out of warranty i would have to file a compliant like i did with the lifters to dodge corp for approval. I will never by another dodge after this.

The blinkers on my truck either won't turn on, or when they do turn on, they blink the opposite direction that i am actually turning.sometimes the blinkers won't turn off at all. This is definitely a safety hazard.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500.the contact stated that while driving 25 mph, the turn signals failed to activate properly. The failure recurred multiple times.the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired.the manufacturer was not notified of the failure.the approximate failure mileage was 91,000.

While driving the headlights flicker. They also periodically blink off for a second then return.this may happen any amount of times while driving or parked out of gear. I often travel s state highway but doesn'tatter where or when i can bet on it happening.

Trucks all over road when hitting rough patch. The bed is rusting bad no excuse

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500.the contact has experienced issues with the vehicle ever since it was purchased.the headlights failed to produce the proper lighting to see at a distance.she purchased new bulbs that were installed at the dealer.in addition, the windshield wiper blade froze to the windshield and the vehicle would "jump" uncontrollably.the dealer was unable to duplicate the failure and stated that the contact needed more experience driving the vehicle.she took the vehicle to the repair shop and the mechanic stated that the tires could cause the vehicle to "jump".the mechanic further stated that the abs was located only in the rear of the vehicle; therefore, the stopping distance will increase.she informed the dealer of the mechanic's diagnosis and was advised to drive the vehicle a little longer to allow the suspension to loosen.the dealer stated that she needed to become familiar with the vehicle.the failure mileage was 120 and current mileage was 5,800.

On my 2008 dodge pickup truck there is no adjustment for lowering the headlights a truck is made to carry weight in the back end or pull a trailer, both of which makes the front of the truck raise in height. While pulling my trailer i receive about 100 cars per hour that flash there high beams just as they approach me causing me to be blind for a second or two. Both the dealer and the manufacture has verified that there is no adjustment for the headlights and there is nothing they can do. I live in calif. And believe it's against the law to drive with lights so high that they blind the on coming traffic. About 2 weeks ago while driving through sacramento in a rain storm at night i could not see the reflectors that mark the lanes and came close to having an accident because my headlights were so high. I think that dodge should be made to correct this condition on all of there trucks before people get hurt.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. The contact was driving approximately 25 mph attempting to make a turn when the turn signal failed to turn off automatically. The manufacturer was notified regarding the failure who stated that the dealer would perform a diagnostic test to determine the cause of failure. The contact stated that the dealer should repair the vehicle free of charge due to the safety issue.the failure mileage was 42,000.

When using my turn signal/wiper multifunction switch: pressing the stalk down (left turn) my right turn signal turns on; pressing the stalk up (right turn) the turn signal does not turn on at all; when using wipers, fast does not come on, trying it in normal in most cases results in an intermittent operation, varying in speed.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500.the contact stated that when the left turn signal was engaged, the right turn signal would illuminate erroneously. The same failure would occur when the right turn signal was engaged and the left turn signal light would illuminate.

Fuel spills out of tank every time i put gas in.does not matter which gas station, type of fuel handle, etc. It always spills out before the automatic shut off on the handle kicks in. This causes fuel to spill on the truck and on the ground. Very dangerous!

I own a 2008 dodge ram 1500.fuel spilled from the filler neck when the fuel tank was filled to capacity. The failure was experienced numerous times.

When fueling the vehicle approximately 10 seconds gas starts shooting out of the gas tank, all over the ground, all over myself, and all over the vehicle. I have been told that it could be a vent issue in the neck of the fueling path. This is a definite safety issue. There have been multiple complaints about this same situation happening in other dodge vehicles. Could you please contact me to discuss. In my opinion, this should be covered under a recall defect.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. The contact stated that while adding gasoline to the fuel tank she noticed that fuel spilled out of the vehicle.

Fuel splashing out of filler neckwhen you fill your tank and the pump kicks off when it is full gas will splash out of the filler neck and down the side of the truckif you stop short and let the gas settle and finish as slow as the pump will pump it is fine.

When fueling using the pump auto shutoff feature the tank overfills and spits out approximately a pint of fuelthat could easily ignite due to any nearby source of ignition.i strongly recommend not using the auto shutoff feature when fueling '08 dodge pick up trucks.

Gas spills out of filler tube when filling up,pumps kicks off but gas always spills out.

Tie rod assembly

While filling up with gas it spills out. Only way to fill it up is to it very very slowly a little at a time. It went from filling up normal then all of the sudden it won't do right. The last 4 times i've put gas in it.

Vehicle stalls after a gas fill-up.i start my truck after filling up at the pump. Pull out of the station, go a little ways down the road, stop at a stoplight. Sit at idle for maybe 30 seconds & the truck dies. The truck only does this after fillups. No check engine. No codes. Looks like there are a lot of people complaining about the same thing. This has been happening constantly after every fill up. The truck runs fine afterwards.

When i stop for gas, i try to fill the gas tank, gas comes gushing out from around the tank opening.this has happened several times.about a pint or more sprays out all over me the side of my vehicle and the ground.i am afraid of the volatility of the gas so i won't take a photo for fear of a spark.not only is this physical getting fuel on my person but an environment hazard too.need help soon the factory won't do anything about it although they have fixed similar trucks that do the exact same thing, they say i am not covered!they say it is happening because of the roll-over valve sticking.not only am i at risk of burning up at the station, i could be incinerated in a roll-over crash!!

When filling the gas tank, gas will spray out of the filler neck once tank becomes full using pump auto shut off or manually holding the pump handle.

Vehicle engine will die/stall when gas is full, especially when going around corners or stopping quickly as in for an emergency. Sometimes just dies when slowing down. Seems to be related to gas moving around in the gas tank when it is full or close to full. When vehicle dies power steering and brakes are also lost making it difficult to maintain control and it quickly becomes a dangerous situation trying to maintain control of a vehicle that weights thousands of pounds while moving along a busy street. Very dangerous.

When the vehicle is filled up with gas, it will stall until some of the gas is burned off.this has happened to me in the middle of an intersection while turning.vehicle loses all power.the vehicle also constantly emits gasoline fumes.very dangerous as my truck is parked in the garage with the hot water heater.check engine light has been on for months and the instrument cluster reads "gas cap".my mechanic checked it out and verified this is a known problem with this model of dodge ram involving the gas tank.the part that needs replaced is attached to the inside of the tank, so an entire new gas tank is required to correct these issues.

Got up one morning and started up my truck heard a ticking sound, upon investigation found that a bolt had broken on the driver's side manifold

Having issue with truck stalling out right after fueling vehicle. This happens with out any warning. Several times it has happened while turning, twice going down a hill and once so far while sitting at a stop sign. This happens once a week right after fueling up the vehicle. I have been researching this issue online and it seems that many owners have been experiencing this issue. Many have spent over $2000 dollars in repairs at the dealer and still have the issue. Many also report this problem of the engine cutting out while in heavy traffic and crossing traffic. Some have reported being on the highway and the engine cutting out at 70 mph. This is becoming a major concern as i use this vehicle for towing my travel trailer with my family. This is a serious condition and from what i have read dodge is not doing anything but charging people and not fixing the issue.

Fuel tank inlet check valve has failed, not allowing fuel to enter gas tank during fill ups at gas station. Under a warranty extension (x49) vehicles between mdh #020108-063023 are accepted although the same part and issue is coming up on my vehicle with mdh # 110821 of the same model year. It is not covered under a very limited recall used to cover for a much larger problem concerning made vehicles manufactured under chrysler. This is a much larger and widely reported problem than the manufacturer is representing due to the large recall and repair costs it would take on. The consumer must now replaced the whole fuel tank due to the fuel tank inlet valve being molded into the tank, which is extremely costly.

When the vehicle is being refueled at a gas station, it will not automatically shut the gas pump off.it will spill gas all over the truck and pavement.it will do this every time, unless we carefully monitor and estimate how much gas it needs to be full and stop it before it reaches that point.this seems to be a common issue among this year model of trucks.we purchased this vehicle as used and the first time we filled up we had this issue.dodge told us $87 to evaluate issue and an additional $500 to fix it - in the same phone call.they know the issue, they are having issues with it in other rams but they refuse to do anything to resolve an ongoing issue.

Recently went over 100k miles and fuel tank is not filling properly, as it actually trips the pump every half gallon or so.after getting tank filled, truck stalls for about the first 15 miles.truck has stalled at intersections, while driving at speed, coming to a stop, etc.after about 15 miles, stalling stops, but once again the truck will not take fuel properly.called dealership and they want to replace fuel tank with an exact replica that still has not fixed the problem.according to local dealership and online research, problem is stated to be a stuck vent line valve internal to the gas tank.almost $2,000 dollars wanted to replace this tank with another tank that has not been fixed.when truck does stall, loss of steering, brakes, etc. Until i drop it into neutral, start it again, and put back in drive while all the time trying to make sure i do not cause an accident.

Engine stalls under braking just after refueling vehicle, this problem continues until several gallons of fuel are used. Power steering and braking is lost due to engine stalling. This happens on any road surface at any speed. Engine will restart sometimes after several attempts.

Having issue with truck stalling out right after fueling vehicle. This happens with out any warning. Several times it has happened while turning, twice going down a hill and multiple time when coming to a fast or even a slowstop or turning. This happens everytime after refueling up the vehicle to full.the engine just quits on the highway with a loss of steering and braking.i've almost been in several wrecks do to these problems.when this happens, steering and brakes are lost creating an extremely hazardous condition and could end in a collision. This also happens when making turns or maneuvering through traffic

Every time the vehicle is fueled, it overfills and spills fuel down the side of the truck and on the ground.happens every time.this is a huge safety issue.

On more than 1 occasion, after filling the gasoline tank, the vehicle has stalled shortly after being filled.yesterday, i filled the tank.aware of this issue from past experience, i avoided "overfilling" it.approximately 3 or 4 miles later, i made a righ turn at low speed to enter a parking lot and the vehicle stalled.i lost power steering and struggled to get it turned safely.at first it wouldn't crank, but eventually i did get the truck restarted.i conducted some business, then wentback to the truck and started it to head home.again as i was turning right to exit the parking lot, the vehicle stalled and i had to struggle to get it to restart.this is extremely dangerous and from internet research, i know others are experiencing the same thing.

I brought my truck into the dealer that i bought it from for a recall on my fuel tank in the summer of 2018.they kept my truck for a few days and gave me a loaner.the dealer called me and told me to bring the loaner in and take my truck with no repairs.the service people said that mopar no long carried the tank for my truck after ten (10) years.inspection is coming up in july of 2019.other than the fuel tank, my truck is just like it was, when i bought it new.please help me and others with this problem.i know that i am not the only one with it.even if i buy another dodge truck, i am not giving up the truck i have.please, help me make my next vehicle a chrysler or dodge, by treating me right on this one.

When trying to fuel my vehicle at gas pump, gas began spewing and gurgling from the tank. I could get no more than around a gallon in the tank without it spewing gas back out all over my truck and the ground. I tried pumping slower, pulling nozzle in and out of tank, and waiting a while. I had no luck. I subsequently tried again two more times a week apart and still can't get gasoline into my vehicle without it spewing out. Upon reviewing this problem online i found a term used for this problem. "spitback." i also found that many chrysler vehicles have had this problem. Also, it would appear that if it's a certain issue, the entire tank may need to be replaced for a simple little valve which is inaccessible otherwise.

When filling up my truck gas overflows everytime.i have to manually slow it down when approaching my estimated fill point. The gas pump does not shut off like it does on other vehicles.my dad has the same truck and it does it also.

While trying to fill fuel tank stationary at a gas station, fuel spills out and shuts down fuel filling nozzle,dealer replaced fuel fill tube on 11/22/2017 but this did not correct the problem. Now chrysler wants me to bpay them to find the problem.i have read many dodge forums with hundred of owners having this same issue.

After you fuel up thevehicle will shortly stall several times afterwards. Leaving you with no power steering. I am concerned about the safety of myself and others. This is happened to me many times on public roads and even highways. I would have almost crashed if i had not noticed that i had lost power steering. I have also heard complaints from other people who say the same about there dodge pickup of similar year. I feel like this should be a big concern, and i should be doing more to fix this problem.

I have 332,683 miles on my dodge ram 1500 my catalistic converter went i cannot get it inspected i thought they were to last the lifetime of the truck? can you help i think that this is a record for a gasoline engine still runs great except for this problem if you can help i thank you(xxxx)redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)

After each fill up the truck will die while coming to a stop. It will continue to do this until the fuel level is lowered. My research has revealed that it is either the fuel tank or fuel pump. This is the second time i will have to replace the fuel tank. The first time it was under warranty. Not this time..

Timp failure

When filling tank fuel was spewed back out the filler opening. Could only fuel truck at trickle of fuel from fuel pump. Dealer stated that check valve was stuck and that the fix was a new gas tank at $551.00 .

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. When refueling the vehicle, the fuel spilled out. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where the technician diagnosed that the fuel filler tube needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 102,000.

Just recently, my 2008 dodge ram 1500 quad cab, 4x2 will stall right after filling the tank with fuel.within the first mile this truck has stalled at least three times.once enough fuel has been burnt, the truck will run fine until the next fill up and the condition returns. When this happens, steering and brakes are lost creating an extremely hazardous condition and could end in a collision. This also happens when making turns or maneuvering through traffic.i have read that several others have had this same thing happen with their trucks.i have been told that my truck needs a new fuel tank assembly since the defective part is not serviceable as it is plastic welded inside the fuel tank.i am hoping that an investigation will be opened and a recall on these tanks is initiated to prevent vehicles from stalling in the middle of an intersection and creating a potentially life threatening situation.

Second owner vehicle bought aug 2015 with approximately 32000 miles.every time fuel is added to the vehicle, no matter which pump i use, fuel gushes from the filler neck of the vehicle.this occurs even if i fill the tank slowly not using the automatic filler on the pump.if the tank is filled to full it will overflow.approximately a pint of gasoline shoots out of the filler neck and down the side of the vehicle onto the ground and myself. This is a well documented complaint with these vehicles.please tell chrysler to fix this environmental and safety hazard.

I've been a dodge truck on her for years when i want another vehicle but i have concerns reference my 2008 dodge with the steering problem i drive the interstate every day i don't feel safe so what door need to do the truck is parked right now

At about 89,000 miles i noticed when filling the truck the nozzle would click off many times before it was filled.it steadily got worse as time went by, it started to spit gas back all over the truck and myself.the dealer told me it was either the filler tube or the whole gas tank both of which are over $2200.00 dollars to replace.they said if i paid $150.00 they would narrow it down.i paid the fee and was told it was the filler neck.they replaced it only to find it was not the problem.i tried to fill it up and was greeted by a gas spray as it had done before, it was not fixed!on top of that, the service manager, craig refused to do any more work on the vehicle and to take it elsewhere!

On my 2008dodge ram 1500 i did the recall for the fuel neck twice and still had problem with itthen started to working right.then just last week start having problem with again on 10/17/2015 when i fill up .the gas start to come backup and take 20 min to 1/2 half hour to fill my truck and did it again 10/23/2015

The 'check engine' light came on.it read 'gascap."i took the truck to the local dodge dealer, who smoke-tested the evap system and found a leak at the top of the fuel tank (toward the front) where two lines enter the evap system.two nipples come out of a short cylindrical part of the tank itself.one of these is extremely thin, and it had sheered off, leaving its hose unattached.there is no way to repair this single part, as it is intrinsic to the fuel tank itself, thus necessitating the replacement of the entire fuel tank.i found a used one, and the owner of the used parts lot told me he had seen many such occurrences.according to the mechanic at the dealership, the unattached hose presents a very grave safety issue.he told me not to smoke near that part of the vehicle, and that if a spark came up into that area the vehicle could explode.the nipple, according to the owner of the used parts yard, is a weak link in that particular design.

The vehicle was stable at a costco gas station. When filling the fuel tank, gasoline spews out of the filler tube and sprays all over, including on me!the fuel sprayed from out and around the tank filler neck gasket.i called the dealer and asked the service writer what is going on?he said it was probably the roll-over valve that was in the filler neck.he said it could also be the fuel tank itself, which is costly.i asked about warranty or goodwill he said no.the problem, in the beginning, it was happening intermittently, it would splash back occasionally then it blocked the filler completely where i could only fill at a very slow dribble.i stopped driving any more than short distances and could only get a quarter of a tank in at about 25 minutes of holding the nozzle.not only is it a fire danger, and a caustic chemical it is an environmental problem with gasoline spilling on to the person filling the truck, the ground, and the airborne fuel particles!i had them replace the fuel filler tube and it turns out not to be the problem!now they actually told me at the dealership, mcpeeks dodge of anaheim that they would not be fixing my car and said to take it elsewhere!this is a very basic safety complaint on a system that is a basic fault of the design.i need help!please contact philip copeland state of california bureau of auto repair, who has done a lot of looking into my complaint.his number is (949) 988-5233.he has contacted the dodge factory and the dealership that was my goto repair facility.he got nowhere but talked to everyone concerned and has much information.i have a large notebook filled with documentation, please call me [xxx]thanks in advance.[xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).'*pm

After the fuel tank is filled, when slowing down or coming to a stop the vehicle will stall and die in traffic and is slow to restart.the dash shows a "check gauges" light, however there are no codes thrown.the dealer has said that the fuel tank needs to be replaced but if this is the case is seems that it is a design flaw.

After filling up to full tank of gas, truck runs rough and stalls at first couple of stops. Almost got run into from behind by another car. This happens every time you fill up gas.

While fueling truck on several occasions when the tank is full and the pump shuts off, fuel flies back out of the fill neck. This needs to be fixed asap and dodge knows about it with all the complaints i see on here. Thank you if you can help get this fixed for me.

Dec 15th internal modem malfunctioned replaced part dec 18th dec 20th locking clip malfunctioned causing vehicle to leave park and go into reverse.

After reading many of the same complaints i have, i'm beginning to wonder if dodge/chrysler/fiat did the same as gm. That is, intentionally put customers in harms way for profit during the economic downturn. I have a "08" 4x4 ext. Cab truck,that has a clunking noise coming from the rear end. This has happened when i first put this truck in "d", or go through the gears.ihave experienced the engine shutting off when i bumped it accidently with my knee. Realize i only have one key on my key ring, so it's not a weight issue similar to gm's ignition problems. I do have a recall for the airbags that i'm sure won't be addressed by dodge or the local dealers because it does have over 100,000 miles and is a used vehicle. I also have experienced a bounce in the front end when i make a sharp turn. Yes, with 100,000 miles,i prolly need new shocks/struts, but it could very well also be a mechanical/wear issue with the ball joints/tie rod ends. I have also experienceda hard shift in the 5 speed transmission my truck has, even though i've changed out the transmission oil twice since owning this truck.the one nice thing about the ford products i owned prior, a recall was just that and they honored it even if i wasn't the original owner/mileage issue/etc. That's what safety recalls should be about--safety first! then again, what difference does it make to amanufacturer like dodge??to the employee's that want mega monies? to the corporate mgr's that make big bucks, they all hold the consumer as a prisoner per se by putting out a product that doesn't hold up and yet will not honor their mistakes by fixing the product as needed in a timely manner. By the way, i baby my vehicles, i'm not rough on them at all. So mileage should not matter with reasonable wear/tear on any vehicle.

I was driving and i started to hear a loud noise and the truck didn't feel right. So i took it to have it checked out and they told me that my rear end was messed up. I had to replace the pinion bearings, rear wheel seals and all the bearings in the rear end. Then after all that was finally fixed i was on my way to work and i start to hear the same noise again so yet again i took it to have it checked out and yet agian they tell me that the rear end is messed up. So i did some research and found out that my truck was under recall for this problem . My entire rear end is messed up because of this and i have spent thousands of dollars trying to have it fixed because the mechanics had no idea that it was under recall.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. The contact stated that while driving 35 mph, a popping noise was emitted as the rear wheels seized. The contact noticed that the rear differential became detached from the vehicle and that the bolts were missing. The vehicle was not inspected by the dealer or repaired. The failure was reported to the manufacturer. The failure and current mileage was 120,000.

Vehicle dodge ram 1500 laramie crew cabat approximately, 10:30 pm edt, while drive at approximately 60 mph with limited traffic but a car immediately behind my in the right lane,there was a loud bang followed by a loss of control of my vehicle.i was accompanied by wife and 2 children (ages 11,15).rear of vehicle was lifted off the ground followed by a strong pull into the right lane.other car slowed and swerved to avoid my vehicle.any acceleration was not possible.attempted to safely decelerate the vehicle.brakes were not performing as typically expected.a few more load thumps (2-3) occurred.looked out the passenger side mirror and saw sparks flying behind vehicle.didn't realize it at the time but the drive shaft completely disconnected with my vehicle and was sent bouncing through traffic.approximately, 3-5 cars initially avoided it.safely found a wide shoulder to stop the vehicle approximately 1/4 mile while coasting. Loud bang occurred as vehicle came to a complete stopped.i checked all 4 tires because initial thought was a tire blew out.all tires were intact.immediately called aaa for roadside assistance reporting engine issue.noticed strong smell of automotive oils/grease.looked under car and saw a "threaded stem" sticking out of rear axle without any thing attached.noticed drive shaft was not connected to the vehicle.took pictures of the area and waited for aaa.i did attempt to walk back a little ways to see if i could locate the detached drive shaft but i was unsuccessful in finding it.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500.while the vehicle was parked in a residential driveway, the rear differential plug became detached from the vehicle.the failure caused lubricant to spill onto the driveway.the contact experienced difficulty on several occasions when shifting gears from park to drive.the manufacturer was not notified.the contact stated that the differential needed to be replaced.the failure mileage was 95,000.

08 ram 1500 drive shaft separated form differential causing rear end to lock up at 60 mph on interstate forcing me to the curb second time had rearend repaired this is a safety hazard and needs to be addressed vehicle is no a a wrecker yard for anyone to inspect will not repair till it is checked by nhtsa

4 wheel drive shifting/switching. Unable to shift between 4wd and 2wd. Visual indicator on electron switch changes status but vehicle is not in 4wd. Erratic behavior,four trips to dealer without resolution of problem. Dealer has reset electroniccontrol but problem recurs. Chrysler contacted with no additional solutions. Vehicle operation is otherwise unaffected.

While driving the rear axle lock-up and the driveshaft detached from the rear differential. This cause my truck to lock upthe rear tires nearly causing and accident. I was on the ramp to the freeway. 20 more ft and i would have been in traffic.

Major rusting issue with 2003-2008 dodge ram trucks. The design of the bed traps water between the truck bed body panels, causing them to rust from the inside out. This is a widely know problem with these trucks. A vehicle that is well maintained should not rust like this. I've been told by every body shop i've gone to visit that dodge knows about the problem and is doing nothing to fix. Dodge has had issues like this in the past with their 2nd generation trucks. The dodge ram cracked dash, and bad transmission are just two examples. Although this is not a safety issue, in some states a vehicle with rust is not allowed on public roads. This forces owners to fix the rust themselves which can range from $500- $3,000.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. While driving at 25 mph, the vehicle failed to shift into gear and stalled without warning. The contact mentioned that the vehicle restarted and the transmission warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. The technician diagnosed that the transmission seized. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. In addition, the contact mentioned that the steering wheel was vibrating and excessive pressure was needed when depressing the brake pedal. The manufacturer was not notified. The approximate failure mileage was 96,000.

I was traveling at 70 mph in the center lane of very heavy freeway traffic when my trucks 4-wheel low light came on and started to flash and immediately after, my truck shook violently and made a loudcrunching grinding noise and within seconds my truck had slowed down to 30 mph. I thought i had been rear ended by another vehicle. Nowin apanicked state of mind not knowing what had just happened, i somehow without causing an accident, got my truck across the lanes off traffic and off to the shoulder of the road. My truck was now stuck in 4 wheel low. I had to drive around 10 miles home with the truck in this condition, driving on the shoulder of the road with my flashers on. I had my truck towed to my dodge dealer. The dealer confirmed the truck malfunctioned causing it to shift into 4 wheel low. Numerous trips back to the dealer for the same problem over and over again, has made me feel very unsafe about driving in heavy traffic or on the freeway. Two years after the first incident the problem has not been fixed. Chrysler specialists say they do not know what the problem is. Besides being a hazard to drive it is costing me thousands of dollars in repairs and they never fix the problem. This is a warranty issue that they are refusing to honor. The componentthat failed is the drive train, the transfer case to be exact.

While driving down the road the rear end locked up causing the drive shaft to twist in half and the transfer case to bust into pieces. The truck spun out of control into a ditch. There was no warning, there are recalls online for other year models having this same problem but not for 2008. I truly believe this is the same problem with the pinion gear.

Rear end made loud whining noise and knocking before the driveshaft became complete disconnected and the rear end seized up. The vehicle was in motion on a highway when this happened-extremely dangerous. This appears to be the same issue covered under nhsta recall # 13v-038.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. While driving at unknown speeds, the vehicle lost power without warning. The vehicle was able to be restarted. The vehicle was taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing. The technician diagnosed that the pcm failed and would need to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

While driving at 75 mph, the issue became apparent as entry into a curve began.the steering of the vehicle (2008 dodge ram quad cab 1500) became less responsive with a great amount of vibration.as the curve in the road straightened out a loud pop came from driver side front and rear axle areas.witch also created a large uncontrollable body roll and sway.howling noise is greatly apparent at higher speeds.with this issue the vehicle feels un-solid and constant body roll feels as if you were traveling on a boat.many items recalled on other dodge vehicles during same year, but not on the vehicle in question, have the ability to case the same issues.this could create a tragic and catastrophic loss of lifein the vehicle of failed parts or the family next to them on the road."drive safe, because today could be the day you save your family's life".

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. While driving approximately 75 mph, the vehicle started to make an abnormal sound. The contact merged to the shoulder of the road and noticed that the pinion nut detached from the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 239,000.

The vehicle in question is a 2008 dodge ram 1500 quad cab 4x2 with approx 81450 miles. While servicing rear differential, found metal pieces stuck to themagnet at the bottom of the housing. No noticable indications of failure prior to service. Vehicle delivered to dealership service department who's service advisor expressed they don't see many of these failures. It was discovered during inspection of the damage that the "c" clips which hold the lsd in place had failed. When the vehicle was picked up after repair the service ticket stated "this happens all the time". Service advisor also stated that the mechanic that performed the repair has over 30 years experience in the repair of rear differentials however, i should expect to see this happen again. The repairs were covered under the "limited lifetime powertrain warranty".

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. The contact stated while driving approximately 35 mph, the axle pinion nut became lose. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the pinion nut needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacture was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage and current mileage was 144,000. ...updated 01/07/15 updated 05/29/2015

While driving with truck in 4 wheel auto i heard a pop and had some warning lights on dash flash on and off. Also had a burnt wire smell. Truck continued to run but after it was shut down it would not start nor would it come out of 4 wheel auto. This happened on 23 dec 2008. As the truck was repaired and troubleshooting was completed it was determined that the electronic portion of the 4 wheel drive had burnt outthe "integrated power distribution module" under the hood. I was also told by the dodge repair facility that nissan and chevrolet were also experiencing the same problems. My truck was finally repaired and returned to me on the 29th jan 2009.

Pinion nut on rear diff came off causing loss of driveshaft damaging transfer case and gas tank.

Rear pinion nut came loose and drive shaft fell off and truck made abrupt stop rear end locked up

Front output shaft(axel) on truck failed at 68,768 miles replaced with oem part, front shaft failed again at 92,440 miles replaced again.

Driving straight in town at 30 mph when rear-end locked up.with no warning, no sounds, no grinding, squealing, or shimmying, the truck skidded about 20 yds before the driveshaft literally ripped in half, with both halves shooting out from under the truck in different directions.pinion bearing already had been replaced about a year prior after feeling some grinding and hearing sounds, but has run smooth as butter since.i had my last oil change and inspection at take tenabout a month ago.rear end remained locked up with driveshaft removed (obliterated) when the tow truck got there.glad i was not on the highway, or myself and 7 year old son may have not survived.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. While driving approximately 60 mph, the driveshaft detached from the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the rear axle pinion fell into the rear differential. The vehicle was taken to tacoma dodge chrysler jeep ram (253-475-7300, located at 4101 s tacoma way, tacoma, wa 98409) where it was stated that the vehicle was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 12v474000 (power train). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to nhtsa. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 160,000. *tp

The truck started to make scraping noise and intensified in about 2 miles of driving a loud grinding noise with vibration sounding like a eco inside the cabin faster you go louder it gets then while in motion the truck made a louder sound and felt like the truck move back for 2 seconds and keep then moving foward still the loud noise i toke it to a mechanic shop to be check and the owner told me that the differential oil has metal on it like a metal was loose inside i told him to stop so i can check for recalls and call the dealer online they show that this kind of issues happen before and that the tires can lock and cause an accident or put someone in danger pedestrian passenger or driver is a recall from chrysler about this issue but i will contact the dealer for more information i been inside the forums online and is a lot of people with this same problem i hope this recall come thruto all those dodge ram 1500 buyers like me

While driving on the freeway at 60 mph the rear axle pinion nut loosened itself off causing the drive shaft to drop. This caused the vehicle to make a loud boom and loose control while on the freeway luckily no other vehicles were near my vehicle at the time. Chrysler is recalling certain model year 2009-2012 ram 1500 trucks manufactured from february 27, 2008, through june 30, 2009, and from december 1, 2009, through october 20, 2011. This vehicle was built in that time frame on july 2, 2008 as a 2008 model but i was informed by the dealership after they contacted it does not fall under the recall and gave me a quote for $6000 to fix.

I was pulling my 19ft. Boat, and i was stopped at a red light. The light turned green, and i hit the gas. There was a knock in the rear end and a loud pop. I looked under the rear end, and i noticed that the rear end was leaking at the rear differential. When the tow truck arrived the rear wheels would not roll. The rear end locked up. This will be the second time my rear differential has went out. The first time was at 34,000 miles. The first time the rear end was making grounding sounds before i took it in. The dodge dealership replaced it under the original service warranty. When they took the rear end apart, they found metal shavings in the oil. This time the truck now has 94,000 miles. Both differentials are currently averaging 45,000 miles each.

Rear differential is noisy after being repaired several times. Vehicle has 73,000 miles.

The gear shift cable is very common problem in multiple dodge cars, trucks, and suv's the gear shift cable breaks easily, and the parts for repair are not available anywhere in the usa. The cable is currently being redesigned fca/ram for the 5th time, with a one month or greater time frame until they are available for dealers.

I had bad vibration start in the rear end a couple days before.went to tire shop thinking it was a tire out of balance. One was, yet vibration still there. Left tire shop to take to mechanic, as i go to leave parking lot i accelerate and a big boom,then nothing. The yoke on rear end is still connected to driveshaft yet it's dangling out the front of axle at angle. Upon having tow truck bring the truck home, i pulled the cover off rear axle to find the nut had backed off the pinion shaft. This should be a recall, everything i've researched shows 2009 models mfg feb 27 2008 thru whenever are covered, yet my 2008 mfg march of 2008 isn't. I disabled and live on a fixed income. I cannot afford $800 or more to fix.

Consumer stated 2008 dodge ram accelerated after removing foot from pedal.the consumer stated as she accelerated to pass a truck, the vehicle continued to accelerate. The rpm's reached 5000. She tried to place the vehicle in neutral, press the brake, but the vehicle continued to accelerate.eventually, the vehicle started to slow down enough with her foot still on the brake. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, however they were unable to find a problem.the dealer stated they had never heard of an electronic control light, even though the light was on when the consumer arrived at the dealer.the shifting was erratic when first shifting out of park into reverse.

Driving home from work down the highway i heard a loud whine coming from the rear end of the truck.i pulled over to the shoulder and was slowing down when the rear end locked up causing the truck to buck and skid to a stop.the drive shaft was lying on the ground having disconnected from the rear end.once the truck was home i discovered nothing had broken.it looked like the pinion nut had loosened allowing the yoke to back off the pinion until they finally disconnected.luckily for me, i had pulled over to the shoulder, so i was not actually doing highway speed when the drive shaft fell off, but the whine started at highway speeds and if i had not pulled over, or was not able to pull over, it very easily could have happened on the crowded highway during the rush hour with everyone trying to get home.i contacted chrysler about this incident, but have heard nothing back from them regarding it.there is a nhtsa campaign (# pe12021) regarding this issue in 2009-2010 ram 1500s.i hope that is expanded to include other years as mine is a 2008 ram 1500 and had the exact issue as is described in that investigation.i have heard of others (granted from internet message boards, so no way of verifying it) with this problem as well, so this problem is not limited to the 2009-2010 model years.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 70 mph, there was an abnormal noise coming from the rear of the vehicle and the rear tires seized. The contact was able to avoid a crash. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. The contact noticed that the drive shaft had detached from the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The vin was not included in the nhtsa campaign number: 13v038000 (power train). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000.

As i was driving on a highway in three lanes of traffic at approximately 70 m.p.h. The rear end made a loud noise and without warning seized up and started grinding extremely loud causing my rear end to lock up at 70 m.p.h. Almost causing a pile up.i avoided a collision by pushing the accelerator to the floor allowing me to change lanes and exit the highway to the first parking lot i could find right at the exit.when i drove into the parking lot the vehicle had a strong odor of hot oil and would not move because the rear end was destroyed.i find it hard to believe dodge is not responsible for the 2008 year trucks having a rear end failure since they have recalls on every year truck except 2008.now since none of this will be covered by the manufacturer or dealer i am left replacing the rear end of my truck with one from a junkyard and i am out almost three thousand dollars.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. While driving 50 mph, the contact heard a clunking noise. The contact depressed the brake pedal, but the vehicle failed to slow down and the rear wheels seized. As a result, the vehicle spun, left the roadway, and landed in a ditch. A police report was not filed. There were no injuries. An inspector from the contact's insurance company diagnosed that the rear axle pinion nut had detached from the drive shaft, causing the failure. A dealer and the manufacturer were not contacted. The vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 12v474000 (power train). The approximate failure mileage was 136,000.

I am concerned with the rear pinion retaining nut problem i have seen and heard about on these vehicles.i feel it should be an expanded recall as i don't want to be driving down the road and have my rear diff lock up or explode internally if its something that can be fixed.

The transmission didn't want to shift into gear but did, carried to the local dealership, said the transmission gears are coming apart. Only 52000 miles on this truck can't believe this has happened $3100 to repair.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. The contact stated that the gear shifter would not properly shift. The contact had to continuously pump the brakes before the shifter would respond. The vehicle was not taken for inspection or diagnosis. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The approximate failure mileage was 38,000.

The drive shaft separated from the rear differential, due to the pinion nut loosening, and the rear axle locked up. The truck was being driven on a town road, when this occurred.

We was driving down the highway and the transfer case and drive shaft along with the evaporator box on the gas tank went flying out the [xxx] of the truck. It lifted us off the ground put a whole in the gas tank and the truck could have exploded if we didn't get it stoped in time so it didn't spark. Our hole family could have died that day!information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Rear differential seized up while driving at 30 mph nearly went off road

We were driving our dodge ram 1500 mega cab (51,000 miles) on interstate 25 just south of douglass wyoming.we were going approximately 77 miles per hour and in an instant i lost all control of the steering and we ended up off the side of the road after a very frightening experience.i bought this truck just over a year ago from a dealer outside denver, co.when the tow driver arrived, he immediately told me that my tie rod probably broke as my right front tire went completely sideways and was now rendered useless.he mentioned that we were very lucky as most times he sees these types of things, the truck rolls over.he also mentioned there was a recall on these tie rods.we had it towed to a dealer in douglass and are waiting to hear what they have to say on monday.i ran my vin# on dodge's web site to see if its a recall, but its telling me that my truck doesn't have any on it.candidly, after talking to mechanics locally, they said a tie rod should never bust like that and with so little miles on the truck.to say this is dangerous is clearly an understatement.this type of "defect" is going to kill people as it almost did us.i sure hope dodge does the right thing with our truck.i have had nothing but issues with this truck since the day we took it off the lot.within a month, the transmission went out and once again, dodge said it wasn't their fault - 40,000 miles and a transmission goes out?after fighting with them for another month, they did repair and pay for the fix...

Truck stalls out for no reason.tends to happen when slowing down and at lower speeds.loose power steering and control.i have since changed the throttle body.truck still stalls.

The truck started hopping and skipping while driving. After having it looked at the rear differential was full of metal gear teeth and filings.

On 2/19/2015, i was driving my 2008 dodge ram 1500 slt at approx 40mph when loud bang came from the rear of the truck, the truck lurches sideways and proceeded to come to a grinding halt. The truck would not move in either drive or reverse. I then had the truck towed back to the dealer since it could not be driven. Upon inspection by the dealership, it showed that the pinion gears were destroyed and all of the metal shavings cause the rest of the failure of the rear. The result was the entire rear needed to be rebuilt. It is very disheartening since chrysler acknowledged the same issue and recall the following model year of my truck (2009) if this catastrophic failure of the rear had happened while on the highway or in higher volume traffic, the safety results could have much worse or dire. With 63k miles, a failure like this, especially with absolutely no warning of impending failure, should never had happened

At 1750 driving in the 4thlane to the leftof a 5 lane highway at 65mph heading west i suddenly felt like i had been struck from behind, the rearend of the truck lifted up into the air. I was out the windshieldlooking down at the pavementand the rearend swung left turning the truck180 degrees into the middle lane of 5 lanes, now facing east into oncoming traffic.when the police officer finally arrived he asked me what had happened. I described this exactly to him adding that i was struck from behind and the vehicle that struck me did not stop.the officer walked around the truck and stated that there was no damage to the rearend of the truck.then the officer looked under the truck and stated thepowertrain was lying on the pavement unattached at therearend..updated 06/25/14updated 06/30/2014

The electronic transfer case would not engage 4 wheel low.then would not change to 2 wheel drive.then when motor wasturned off, it would not restart.it had to be towed to the nearest dodge dealer.tipm replaced,next time all wheel drive engaged, tipm burned out again.towed to nearest dealer. They replace tipm again. Said they could not fix the transfer case.they were going out of business and said that i had to take to another dealer.i did, and they stated that chrysler knew about the problem.i notified chrysler by certified mail,pursuant to iowa lemon law notification,email and phone.no response.it is now over 70 days, and numerous phone calls to customer service.i get promises of return phone calls within 48 hours which never are received after 70 days.customer service will not relay regional service or sales managers phone numbers.they keep blaming the dealership, for not contacting them.dealership states that their regional and service managers have left chrysler. They give me the only phone number they have, and it has a voice mail stating that they are no longer with chyrsler.soi have had no return communication from chrysler period. Total customer abandonment.

Pinion nut came off, causing catastrophic damage and near collision, i sent the letter below to chrysler, with no response.october 12, 2013chrysler corporation: i have owned 5 dodge rams, a 95,98,99,2006,2008; the 2008 was sold to me with a lifetime warranty... Until i needed it. After 5 years of ownership (chrysler service now tells me that i was required to have my vehicle inspected within a 30 day window of its 5th birthday to preserve the warranty. Who knew this? lifetime means life-time, right?my differential just suffered from a catastrophic failure when the pinion nut backed off and the pinion gear was pinched between the housing and the ring gear at 60 mph, blowing out the cast iron housing, the drive shaft fell out and i nearly collided with another vehicle. Benny boyd of lampasas texas had rebuilt the differential a year prior to the 5 year marker, it is my assertion that had the work been done properly this should not have happened. All of the dodge ram dealerships in my area claim that i do not have the warranty i have bragged about, and counted on,and will not repair it. I am screwed!!i was quoted $4,000.00 dollars for the repair at cecil atkins in burnet texas. Friday oct 11th i needed the warranty that came with my truck, but it was not there. The service people seemed afraid to even tell me, they too seemed ashamed of this loophole. Shame on chrysler. After the loyalty i have shown you for the last 20 years, all the praise for your products, and word of mouth advertising i have given you, i expect to be treated better than this, what can you do for me before i lose faith in you?[xxx]loyal customerinformation redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

I was driving down the road and switched into 4wd aftera few minutes the vehicles lights started to flicker- the car slipped out of 4wd and wouldn't re-engage.there was an apparent short in the electrical system- the windshield wiper/washers wouldn't function afterward either.the dealer fixed the issue but the very day i got it back the very same thing happened again. I am told it is a technical problem with the vehicle and chrysler is searching for a fix but that i am not supposed to turn the switch back to the 4wd position or i'll short out the system again.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. While driving 50 mph, the rear driver and passenger side wheels locked and the vehicle stalled. The contact pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road by shifting the gear into all wheel drive. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the rear wheel differential needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer. The manufacturer stated that the vin was not included in a recall. The approximate failure mileage was 50,000.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. While driving approximately 35 mph, a second vehicle crashed into the rear bumper of the contact's vehicle. The driver abruptly stopped the vehicle. While braking, the front driver and passenger side seat belts malfunctioned and failed to secure the occupants in the seats. Both occupants sustained head, facial, and back injuries that did not require medical attention. A police report was filed. The cause of the failures was not diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 27,000.

The re-tractor for the passenger side seat belt failed and locked. Unable to put on seat belt.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. The contact stated that while stationary, the seatbelt retractors stopped functioning. In addition, the middle seatbelt had mold. The contact also stated that the overhead passenger's handle on the vehicle that assisted entering in and out of the vehicle, fractured and struck the contact's wife in the head. Medical attention was not required. The vehicle was repaired but the repairs were unknown. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures. The failure mileage was 141,000.

Vehicle was stopped. My wife was sitting in the passenger seat, tried to unlatch the seat belt to exit the vehicle. The buckle would not unlatch to let her out of the seat. As she tried to " squiggle" out of the seat belt, the retractor locked and she was trapped in the seat. I attempted to operate release button and it failed to release belt buckle. I tried to get the retractor to unlatch and it got tighter and tighter. I would have cut the belt in an emergency, but were only a few miles from home. I removed a plastic trim piece on the outboard part of the seat to gain access to the belt attachment bolt. Luckily i had the special tool required to remove the bolt. A torx 45 star socket and ratchet wrench. I removed the bolt and freed her by freeing the end of the seat belt that attaches to the outboard passenger seat base. Called local dealer bay dodge - panama city, fl. They would repair for normal parts and labor. They told me to call chrysler customer service 800-992-1997. Talked to rep (terry lynn) she said there was no recall. I told here i wanted to formally report a life safety issue with the vehicle. She gave me a case number 24486512, she said chrysler reviews the complaints, but i would not receive a reply. I feel this is a defect, not a malfunction. If you go into the water or have fire, or are in a freeway pile up in the fog, the occupant would be trapped and probably be killed if they did not have an instrument to cut the seat belt. Chrysler acted as if i were complaining about something insignificant like a radio knob falling off. I contacted the ftc consumer complaints division and filed same complaint case [xxx].

Takata recallcentral valley dodge jeeo modesto,ca has failed to help me

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. While the vehicle was undergoing routine maintenance, it was discovered that the rear brake pads were disintegrating and caused the vehicle to lose braking power. The vehicle was taken to a dealer. The technician diagnosed that the failure was a direct result of the salt in the winter. The brake pads were not replaced. The manufacturer was not made aware of failure. The failure mileage was 37,000. The vin was not available.

While attempting a sudden stop for stopped traffic ahead of me, the brakes got firm and then soft, not allowing me to slow down and miss the vehicle in front of me.i believe the anti-lock brake system did not function properly.i contacted chrysler (case # [xxx]) about this and they performed static inspection and found no defects. The inspection apparently did not attempt to duplicate the actual stopping conditions.the road was asphalt, and the weather was approximately 80 degrees and dry.the tires are factory size (275-60-r20) with 7/32 tread and fairly even tread wear.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

On 6 nov. I filed this complaint(case #[xxx]) and have not received a response.on 12 nov., the anti-lock brake system again did not function properly when i had to aggressively apply the brakes for a changing stop light.it's ironic that i was on my way to court for the "failure to control speed" ticket that i received for the accident on 6 nov.as i stated before, the investigator that chryslersent to inspect my vehicle found nothing wrong.since my brakes still do not function properly in a panic stop and the investigator was 3 hours late, i question the quality of his inspection?your assistance would be greatly appreciated.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

In april 2016 while driving my truck started to vibrate badly in the rear. I was driving on the highway at 70 mph. As i slowed down to pull over, the truck started to jerk like i was pumping the brakes. As it stopped, you could hear a tire skidding. Not steady, but like i was trying to break hard.i didn't have my foot on the brakes. The right rear wheel was smoking and extremely hot. I had it taken to a dodge dealer where they diagnosed a sticking caliper. They replaced both rear calipers and bleed the brakes. The truck drove fine after the $570.00 repair bill. In july 2016 while driving on a two lane county highway, the truck started pulling strongly to the left into oncoming traffic. I stopped and the left front wheel was extremely hot. You could not touch it. I let it cool and idled home on the shoulder. My truck has 56,000 miles on it.i called the dealer and they said i probably needed front calipers also. This appears to be a common failure with these trucks. I drive mostly on two lane country roads in the mountains. A skid or loss of control can be a very serious accident. In both cases there was no warning. With the front wheel it just started pulling left. If i hadn't had a firm grip on the steering wheel it would have crossed the center line. The break pads have 70 percent life left according to the dealer and they didn't replace them.

My rear right brakes have fallen off twice .

The brakes on our 2008 dodge ram 1500 failed on 2/5/2016. As i was in motion headed straight when the truck's brakes failed and i hit the vehicle in front of me. I was traveling straight on a city street about 20-30 mph when i lost the use of the brakes. The truck kept traveling forward about 50 yards after i hit the other vehicle and i wasn't sure how i was going to stop the moving truck when i remembered to use the emergency brake. The vehicle stopped after that in the center turn lane and i remained there until the police arrived. When the officer arrived i explained to him that the brakes on the truck failed even after i had been running errands and picked up lunch just minutes before the accident.a police report was made and i took pictures of the brake pedal and internal brake components immediately after the accident.the brakes were shown to the responding police officer and the person in the other vehicle i had hit. I also reported the faulty brakes to our insurance company. I can provide a copy of the police report once it's available in 24-48 business hours.i believe the 2008 dodge ram 1500 truck was built with an improperly formed or faulty brake booster input rod retaining clip which caused improper service brakes and/or hydraulics.

Break caliper left front locked up rotor became red hot steering started shaking now i'm afraid to use vehicle with my children inside due to breaks and air bags issues my 2008 ram has less than 35,000 miles will chrysler buy it back i hope.

Vehicle bought new in 2008.in the last couple of years, had to:replace both brake calipers due to dragging and overheating.replace lf wheel bearing hub assembly - making noise - found to have worn bearing,wiper motor replaced for recall, never had issue. Now it does not work correctly, improper cycling speeds, won't turn on, or won't turn off at times. Mileage ~ 38,000. This is dangerous, just like the brakes and bearing.

My left tie rod needs replaced,the right is fine. The have a bunch of recalls on left tire rod on all different models and years covering around mine truck. My truck is not under the recall, i think it is a crock pot filled with something. How is it magical the same problem they are having recalls on but mine isnt recalled.

Steering became very loose and uneven tire wear at 35,900. The truck felt like the front end was going to fall off and was wandering and bouncing. I took the truck into the dealer (royal dodge owego, ny)for evaluation in the summer of 2011 and was told the left tie rod end was defective and the truck was out of warranty. I obtained a quote of approximately $200 to replace the left front tie rod end and do an alignment. I ended up replacing the tie rod end myself ($50) and having the truck lined up ($80) at moore's tire sales in owego, ny. Upon evaluation of the defective tie rod, i noticed there wasn't any grease from the factory on the tie rod ball once i cut the boot open. I also ended up having to replace the tires due to the uneven tire wear. I am aware of the recalls on this truck but i have the extended cab version and the recall is only for the mega cab version???? i think the recall should also include the extended cab version also. Is there any recourse for fiat chrysler to reimburse me for the expense? i also just had to replace the right outer tie rod for the same condition at 58,000 miles.

The contact owns a 2008 dodge ram 1500. The contact received a recall notice for nhtsa campaign number: 13v528000 (steering), but the dealer stated that the repair was unnecessary. Several months later, while driving 25 mph, the power steering failed and the vehicle vibrated violently. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 120,600.

My complaint regards the unreasonable length of time it is taking chrysler to resolve recall n49. This is a tie rod issue. Pretty important, considering the ball stud could fracture and cause the loss of steering while customers are on the road. As instructed by the notice, i called our local dealer january 6, 2014 to schedule an appointment. I was told to call back the following week. I did so promptly and was told i would be put on a list for repair. I was #130 and parts were expected to be shipped by chrysler just once every two weeks. I called again april 30. I am now #120. I'm told that, even if the parts were coming in at a faster pace, the dealership is not adequately staffed. It appears to me that this safety issue - one that can, and probably will, result in loss of lives -- is not an urgent matter to chrysler. If it were, it would be sending the replacement parts to the dealers in a timely manner and footing the bill to temporarily staff the dealership to get this resolved.

When operating the vehicle whether under a load or not, using sustained higher rpm's the steering wheel will freeze up and there is absolutely no steering available.this has happened in the mud pulling a trailer, in snow navigating a little hill and now on the interstate entrance ramp!twice just changing lanes going around 30 mph!the two little times i knew to lower the rpm's very quickly and observed a loud pop noise when the steering wheel let loose.on the entrance ramp to the interstate i came so close to a concrete wall before the steering came back.i took it in to the dealership and they kept it for 3 days.all they said was unable to duplicate.i duplicated it the very next week.along with cold weather stalling at red lights.i do not think they looked at it or took it seriously.the vehicle when it did this in the mud and snow i at first thought it was a rock lodged into the wheel but then later realized it froze up.

Turned steering wheel and hear like a grinding sound. I noticed vehicle was leaking steering fluid. Vehicle taken to dealership who stated the power steering pump was cracked.

Dodge ram 2008 quad cab 1500 series. At the time i called into dodge i had roughly 60 thousand miles on my truck. I contacted dodge in 2014 and they told me although that was the model and series that was part of a recall that my particular vin was not eligible for a recall . The problems i had endured were swaying of the truck almost to the extent where the tire felt like it was wobbling and the truck shaking when i excellerated over 50 mphs . It was at that time when i took a road trip for memorial day weekend 2014 when this started getting progressively worse and i pretty much had to drive 40 miles an hour the i75 freeway because the car felt like it was going to flip over when i was excellerating. It was right there after that i contacted dodge to make a complaint and they told me although i had the year and make of the ram but my particular vin was not eligible for any recall. So there after i had to replace my tie rods and the sway bar at my own expense and also replace my tires not too long after that which were new from the dealer when i bought it used in 2011. My biggest fear was the vehicle that was the safest of the 2 my family owns was now a risk to my children,my spouse and i. I also had fellow vacationers in the vehicle with me which witnessed the vehicle shaking obsessively when we were accelerating.

Failed state inspection due to bad left tie rod.

My vehicle was taken in for an oil change, at this time we found that it was driving funny.the inspection that was performed during routine service found a leak of failed seal in the steering unit. Also noted around quarter panels rust bubbles are appearing under the paint.

Mechanic showed me that tie rod ends are loose and must be replaced.several ram 1500s have had a recall on tie rods but a call to chrysler recall office turns up negative for my truck. I propose that 2008 should be included in ram 1500 recalls too.the rod has worn out at low mileage.

While driving at highway speeds the front end wants to pull to the left and right when going over a bump in the road. The steering wheel does not pull it feels like the wheels turning. I have had the alinement checked and had new tires put on. Still have the same trouble

65 mph the steering wheel wobbles uncontrollably. My job is located 60 miles from home, one way, all highway miles. Incredibly dangerous. I have my 4 year old daughter riding with me. If i slow down i can usually regain control of the truck, one day we may end up in ditch. I bought this truck hoping for a reliable and safe vehicle for my daughter and i, which i don't feel i have accomplished! i am terrified for other drivers on the road, steering may go out, and i can't miss work due to dodge mistakes! we have owned this truck for less than 2months. Something has to change before something bad happens!

I had gotten new tires on my truck and an alignment done on the truck and was told my power assist rack and pinion was failing and would have to be replaced. After doing research online about the issue i have found that there areally very many people with the same problem with the mopar part failing while driving or being told they need to replace it. With so ma you complaints about it on the 2008 models alone, they need to look into the issue as it can cause a serious accident or the death of a person. Several have complained that this part has failed at mileages down to 45,000 miles. It sounds like this may bea faulty part.

It first started as severe shaking whenever i hit a bump, especially on an curve.the truck would hop and shake and become uncontrollable until i slowed.this still happens but now i also get an uncontrollable wobble whenever i drive at highway speed and there is any kind of incline or bend in the road. Only fix is to slow down significantly.. It's dangerous!i've become trained to deal with it but it's certainly unsafe and i always worry that it will happen on a slick road and i won't be able to hold it on the road. I've replaced tires, aligned, balanced, road force balanced and nothing fixes it!

Re: 2008 dodge ram 1500 quad cab 2 wheel drive.there is a recalll16 for a defective left outer tie rod nhtsa action # pe1109, campaign # 11v350000 for various model ram's.on january 14 at 37,733 miles i replaced the right outer tie rod part #5175790ac.

There is a safety recall on certain dodge ram tie rods (recall #l16) but for some reason my vin was not included in this recall. Sure enough the tie rod was near failing and i had it replaced before a catastrophic failure could occur. Why was my vin left off of this recall? the signs and conditions of my faulty tie rod are identical to all of the documented failures.

2008 dodge ram 1500 4x2 - quad cab.while driving at approximately 70 mph front end began to shake and vibrate.had front end alignment checked and tires were balanced and aligned correctly.technician at private shop indicated that there was no unusual wear and tear noted in the ball joints either.still driving vehicle with the same conditions occurring. Have not notified dealer/manufacturer yet.

Both outer tie rod ends are worn out with 107,000 mile hit a bump on interstate front wheel wobble putting the car out of control .start of the death wobble.

While driving on the parkway i suddenly lost control of the steering.thankfully i was able to safely maneuver the truck to the side of the road, with the help of a good samaritan and my evasive maneuver course required by my job, before anything tragic happened.i had the truck towed to the dealer where they confirmed my suspicion of a broken tie rod, specifically the left tie rod which has been recalled on every 2008 ram except my 1500.i find this very suspect that all the other rams have been recalled and fixed except my model, yet i had to pay for the repair.i am grateful that i did not get hurt, or cause an accident and injure anyone else, however this issue needs to be looked in further by the government.all of these trucks are unsafe to drive until they are fixed.according to my normal mechanic, this can happen at anytime due to the defective tie rod.he has replaced many 1500 tie rods at the expense of the owners, this should not be.please order ram to issue a recall on all the 2008 ram trucks to keep the public safe.thank you

After speaking to several 2008 dodge ram owners (on dodge forum & face to face) we all have the same concerns with this vehicle. There is a severe handling issue at highway speeds that causes an uncontrollable rear suspension hop. This in turn results in severe handling issues that have led in some cases to spin outs and fishtailing. The newer dodge ram models are equipped with sway bars or anti sway bars so it shows that the engineers recognized the problem. I've spent numerous dollars and time having the tires balanced, rotated and rims checked as well as buying new tires in trying to eliminate this dangerous condition.

The two front struts on our 2008 dodge are leaking.this is a part covered under the extended warranty.the issue is that this part is on a national back order with chrysler.this is an issue that for whatever reason is not considered a recall item.this item also causes the front tires to deteriorate and go flat regularly.tires are not covered under warranty so this becomes an expense and/or burden on the owners.this is also a safety issue because the vehicle is not able to properly maintain a lane in traffic when there are changes in road texture, pot holes, or if there are road deterioration issues.these changes cause the vehicle to bounce out of control and it makes it difficult to safely maneuver the vehicle in traffic.we have talked to several service managers who have all confirmed this issue.it is a nationwide issue that needs to be handled for the safety of our roads and highways.

Fortunately i was traveling at a low speed and could stop safely. While changing the tire i noticed the valve was missing. Taking the tire into a local shop the mechanic handed my the tpms sensor and told me it had fallen in, taking the valve stem with it. The sensor fell in because the retaining nut had corroded and broken off. In april 2013 the front passenger side tpms nut cracked and caused that tire to slowly go flat. I was traveling on the interstate when the system indicated a tire problem. I pulled off and checked the tire pressure, all normal. I continued on my journey to a state highway. Once going down the highway i started to get some wobble and flat tire sounds. Pulled over and the tire was almost flat. As i was changing this tire the retaining nut broke and the sensor fell into the tire. I experienced two tire problems because of the tire pressure monitoring system sensor nuts were corroded.

Recently my 2008 dodge ram 1500 quad cab started locking up as if i was slamming on my brakes when i was driving and not touching my brakes. This would happen whenever i was driving 60mph or greater on any kind of road going in a straight line.i had the brake lines flushed and new brake fluid put in along with cleaning out the rear differential and putting in expensive synthetic oil and still no change. I've called dodge corporate about this and they said they couldn't do anything because there is no recall on the books about this. I did some research and found out that there have been a lot of complaints about this same thing happening to other dodge ram 1500 truck years. I had my mechanic put the dodge computer on it and it showed no codes. He has no clue about what to do. Neither do i.

Had new tires and ball joint replaced and truck lined up 3 times and still shakes in front end.turn steering wheel all way left and front end skips on pavement.

If truck has a full tank of gas, it will stall if slowing down or coming to a halt.if it is full, and you are driving down interstate, it seems to be fine, as you exit the interstate and come to a light or stop, it will stall and you have to restart.only happens if a full tank.no dodge shops can answer why.numerous you tube videos on this issue with no answers from the experts.my only child drives this vehicle, so yes, i am concerned about this and worry that this may worsen and lead to stalling on the interstate at a high rate of speed, say 70 versus 40 and slower. Bought vehicle in 2012 and it continues to this day.needless to say, we never fill up this truck.my dates on here are not precise.truck was bought march of 2012 with about 85k miles.this problem continues to this date.you might want to enter this problem on youtube and see what you get.very interesting.

Intermittent front end vibration described online as "death wobble"while driving at highway speeds (over 55) steering wheel will randomly vibrate and shake and vehicle front end shakes as if the front wheels are "fighting each other" and out of unison with the other.slowing down will stop the vibration and vehicle will settle down and return to normal.this occurs without notice, but especially when vehicle is driven across a rough patch or transition from one road surface to another.more likely on highways and interstates at speeds above 55.this issue has been occurring intermittently for years.service centers have been unable to diagnose the cause.have inspected front end, shocks, tie rods, ball joints, etc. And found no reason for trouble.

This is the second time reporting this problem. I have been having issues with my acceleration or gas pedal when i step on the gas sometimes to accelerate. Like merging onto the freeway or interstate or trying to pass a slow-moving vehicle my gas pedal or acceleration pedal has a tendency to stick. I then have to stomp on it or try to pull up on it with my foot to free it up. As i have stated in my previous complaint i guess nothing is going to be done about it on till someone is hurt injured or killed.

Had my cruise control set at 70 mph on my dodge ram 1500 truckas i was approaching an 18 wheeler i tap my brake to disengage my cruise and it didn't so i tapped it again and same results and there was cars on my left so i had to take the shoulder of the highway i was applying the brakes as hard as i could but i continued to gain speed ( the cruise was stuck and would not disengage) and had to take the shoulder. I continued to gain speed and ran out of shoulder so i had to cut left back to the highway and hit the trailer of the 18 wheeler. It slowed me down and i cutback behind the trailer and started to gain speed. The 2 cars that was to my left had passed so i cut left and turned off the key and began to slide.

80 mile drive home in rain and windshield wipers stopworking!truck has 40,000 miles on it and i'm the original owner.intermittent wiper stops, starts, runs at different paces.completely scary to be on the highway at 60 mph and can't see the road.very dangerous!the company should replace this at no cost.apparently they have issues with this because it's been recalled, but my vin wasn't a part of the recall.how can that be?a known issue, but won't take care of a loyal customer with a safety issue that needs to be repaired or the safety of using the vehicle is limited by weather conditions.what if i had an accident and i had been killed on the highway because my wipers didn't work and the company new it was an issue and wouldn't fix it?very disappointed by this problem and the company's lack of responsibility to fix it.i was on an interstate highway with a posted speed limit of 60 mph, following the law, rain started coming down, wipers would not work so i could see the road.extremely upsetting and scary to be in that situation.would hate for my wife or daughter to be driving and have this happen to them.semi trucks were splashing water onto my windshield and i couldn't clear the water to see where i was going!extremely dangerous!!!!

When the heater is turned on, air will only come out the air conditioning vent.the defrosters have no hot air coming out.this is an safety hazard sincewindows cannot be defrosted.i have talked to many other ram owners that have the same problem.there was a recall (k-17) for some 2009 and 2010 models.this recall should be opened up to all models with this problem.

The wipers motor speed fluctuates when moving the steering column up or down. Sometimes the wipers won't go to 'high speed' until the steering column is moved around.it happens regardless if it is moving down the road or not.

Theheater control doors break on dodge ram trucks not allowing the defrost to work causing a safety hazardthis has happened to thousands of dodge rams . They want way to much to fix there design flawed doors with new design flawed doors . Please look into this for us!

Front wheel bearings/hub.4x4...severe grinding/ vibration in turns.bearings were dry and worn badly .this caused uncontrollable wheel movement during breaking. Loss of vehicle control in the rain when braking..luckily no damage to vehicle in incident

The incident of june 19, 2008.my wife and i were on our way to a soccer match at a local high school when upon hitting a slight dip in the road, my left front wheel sheared from the lug nuts and rolled away, while my truck wheel hub and rotor slammed into the asphalt and grinded 15 feet to a stop.i called power dodge of valencia, who authorized a tow from lancaster to valencia.my truck was on its way to good hands, i thought.one week later, june 26, 2008, there were no repairs made to the truck yet, and what had originally seemed like a warranty repair issue, now was being faulted to me by the service manager of power dodge, (the sm). The sm was looking for every avenue to find blame elsewhere except with his company, and with little care for the inconvenience i was being put through without a vehicle.the sm had a wheel expert look at the damage, and what was found, were two lug nuts with apparent stress cracks, which once they gave way left no room the remaining three to hold the wheel fast, thus shearing all the bolts off.it was said that this is sometimes caused by over torquing the bolts during tire rotation or changing of a tire, all services only performed on my truck by power dodge of valencia.the sm instead blames me for not rotating the tires sooner than eighty five hundred miles, stating that the lugs may have backed off and broken.with all of the said damage caused by the wheel breaking off, my truck is in for it?s regularly scheduled maintenance, which includes tire rotation.if dodge is not responsible for any of the damage caused by the lug nut failure, then it would stand to reason that my warranty was now voided due to what the smof dodge claims was failure of the lugs due to not rotating the tires soon enough.but, according to power dodge of valencia, my warranty is still good.dodge is accepting no responsibility for lug nuts shearing off while driving which in not normal.
