I took my foot off the brake and was just about to press down on the accelerator pedal, my truck surged forward for about .25 of a second (split second). This has happened in the past ~8 times. I notified the dealer at 26,000 mile service and they said it was the engines switching between the eco mode and normal mode. (5.7 hemi).please advise.

This is not a complaint based on a specific occurrence.i am a professional driver who operates a variety of passenger vans and busses between various cities.in recent years it has become increasingly more difficult to drive during non-daylight hours do to the type of headlights that are now allowed on passenger and truck vehicles.the intensity and brightness level of headlights has increased to a point where the glare and blinding effect of oncoming headlights has become a significant safety factor, especially on two lane highways. Furthermore, many vehicles are now equipped with a four headlight system as their regular night time running lights.the optional "fog lights" for severe weather conditions is now standard lighting protocol.the other option on these vehicles is their "bright" option which creates an even more hazardous situation for oncoming traffic due to their blinding effect. This "upgraded" headlight, fog light, and bright light trend needs to be toned back down to intensity and brightness levels that existed a few years ago and are reasonable for oncoming traffic to adjust to.it is a simple matter of fact that these high level headlight options are the cause of more unnecessary accidents and casualties than ever before.

Gas pumps do not shut off and tank overfills spilling gas on truck and cement.
While traveling a local road at approximately 30 mph, the rear differential made a short term humming noise and then a grinding sound. Rear differential locked up shearing the pinion shaft and allowing the driveshaft to drop free of the rear differential, hit the bottom of the truck several times and then drop to the ground. Vehicle was towed to the local dealership where it remains waiting on parts. According to the dealership, chrysler has switched suppliers of the ring and pinion kits and there is currently a backorder of approximately 175 parts kits. Current release date for the parts is october 2012.

2010 dodge ram hd diesel e/w new integrated trailer brake controller.new brake controller failure. The brake controller failure disconnected 3 times going down a steep grade. Also there was very little brake pressure coming from the integrated brake controller. Faxed all of the information to dealer and they said their tech was busy and did not have time to call dodge to see if there is an ongoing problem with the new controller. Dealer is rio vista dodge,location rio vista, ca. I feel dealer should have looked at this problem because it is a safety issue.
Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)city of ottawa has four (4) dodge ram 5500 units, bought in march 2010 with vin numbers listed below, all have been plagued with steering problems which drifts at speeds over 70 kmh and is difficult to control when facing consecutive small bumps - so much that in my test ride i was afraid i could end up in the opposite lane of traffic and cause a head-on collision.my personal concern is that if new or inexperienced drivers face such steering, it could cause accident, damage or even fatality if it goes unchecked.unfortunately the dealerships (southbank and capital dodge) seem to have very little knowledge of the root cause and no capacity to do real analysis and testing on these units. Chrysler corporate has been contacted via 1-800 phone calls and fleet emails and files were opened on all our units but that has been the extent of their cooperation, and even the local service managers have not heard from chrysler's engineering or the district service manager who usually tends to such calls. Vin# [xxx] ,city of ottawa's unit b5-3359, 4wd, at southbank chrysler, test driven per above, deemed not safe at high speeds.vin# [xxx] , city of ottawa's unit b5-3360, 4wd, has been at capital dodge, it has had some repairs done, and was also test driven and steered normally. Dealer has yet to share with us the details of the repairs or retrofits performed.we suspect steering box was replaced.vin# [xxx] , city of ottawa's unit b5-3358, 4wd, at southbank chrysler, the steering box was replaced, and then unit was deemed acceptable.vin# [xxx] , city of ottawa's unit b5-3357, 2wd, although a few complaints from users re steering, but mechanics accepted the unit.
