2026 RAM 3500
Filed Oct 22, 2026
ONLY 1,800 MI. I continue to experience ongoing issues with this truck, despite having just received it back from the dealership two weeks ago following repairs related to a rear pinon gear. the truck is now back in the service department for concerns involving the front differential. Given the repeated drivetrain issues, I am increasingly concerned about the safety and reliability of this vehicle, particularly the possibility of a catastrophic mechanical failure while traveling at highway…

I am reporting a recurring engine defect involving the Multi-Displacement System (MDS) in my 2022 RAM 1500 Big Horn equipped with the 5.7L HEMI eTorque engine. Since purchasing the vehicle in March 2023 with approximately 4,555 miles, the truck has experienced four separate MDS-related failures despite multiple repair attempts by authorized RAM dealerships. On February 7, 2025, at approximately 38,115 miles, a RAM dealership diagnosed an MDS solenoid that had physically separated and required…

My new Ram has very soft brakes. Should you keep constant pressure on the brake pedal it will eventually go to the floor. Also, no trailer brakes. Dealer states they can find no problem, and they are working as intended. They are not. Lockhart Texas dealer bled the brakes, with no improvement.

The sun visor (driver and passenger) break with normal use. This can cause the visor to suddenly drop into the drivers field of view or potentially strike the driver in the head depending on if it is being used in the standard down position or if the extension bar is being used on the front or side position. This could cause the driver to have a physical reaction even if the risk of injury from the strike is relatively small, thus causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle. Mine fell…

I hit a deer coming around a corner at probably 45 mph, dead center in the middle of my bumper. My airbags did not deploy, and my front sensors did not alert me before collision.
2022 RAM 1500
Filed Oct 22, 2026
The truck has stalled twice while in motion. Leaving me stopped suddenly in middle of the street. This has happened on 2 separate occasions. I did not think to save the dates. Initially I thought maybe I wasnt giving it enough throttle, but after reading more into it I see there was a recall for the previous year model and this may be considered problematic as well. The truck made me apply the brake to restart, and release the emergency brake since it applied on its own. The first stall I had…
2019 RAM 1500
Filed Oct 22, 2026
Blown Engine- No prior indicators that were obviously present. Driving on highway and about 40 miles in, loud ticking noises. Truck previously had manifold bolt breaking issues so assumed it was an exhaust leak. Within another 20 miles, the engine light came on and engine noises noticeably increased. Immediately took it to Ram Service and was diagnosed with a failed camshaft and camshaft bearing wear/scoring. Issue was reported to Ram dealership and ultimately fixed at owner cost.

I have been trying to schedule an appointment to fix the trailer lighting recall for over six months. The dealership tells me the parts are on back order even though I know people are getting this fixed at other dealerships.

The vehicle shut off in the middle of the road while driving without warning. To get it restarted, we needed to activate with remote start on key fob several times before it would allow us to restart. The vehicle also did the same behavior 3 more times in a parking lot where it would immediately halt and shut off while the vehicle was in motion. We have today reported to the dealer and will be transporting the car there today.

* The Sun Visor on both the driver and passenger sides of my 2019 Ram 1500 failed. The holder weakens and allows the visor to drop unexpectedly, which blocks your view while driving. * When I was driving, the sun visor had popped out of the ceiling, dropped into my view of the traffic, and bounced around my hands and the steering wheel. There is an electrical wire in the sun visor that causes the sun visor to dangle, spin, and bounce around until you can grab it. * The problem has been…
