This is the 3rd time this happened to me. The first time I was driving around 55 and the truck started to shake so bad I could not actually hold onto the steering wheel, and I made it to the side of the road. I thought was a flat tire and I pulled over to find nothing wrong. The second was bad as it shook so violently, I was unable to make it to the side of the road, so I hit the brakes in the middle of traffic to stop. This 3rd time I happen to be traveling 65 mph on the interstate in PA and hit a small bump and all of the sudden the truck felt like it was bouncing off of the road. I hit the brakes to slow down and drove to the side and into a field. I purchased tie rods and actually the entire front suspension. This was the worst shaking I have ever felt in 45 years of driving. This is going to get me killed when this happens on the road. Please help.

I RECEIVED A VE5 LATE LIFE EMISSION PERFORMANCE DEGRADATION RECALL IN JANUARY 2021. I HAD THE RECALL PERFORMED ON 1.27/2021 AT RAZZARI DODGE, MERCED. THEY INSTALLED A NEW CAT CONVERTER AND EXHAUST MANIFOLD. WHEN I GOT MY TRUCK BACK, I HAD AN CEL ERROR CODE P2271 O2 SENSOR. I HAD TO PAY $707.74 AND $978.98 TO GET THE TRUCK RUNNING. I HAD NO PREVIOUS CEL. I THINK THEY BROKE THE WIRING HARNESS OR O2 SENSORS WHEN THEY PERFORMED THE RECALL. . I THINK THE VE5 RECALL REPAIR, SHOULD MAKE THE ENTIRE EMISSIONS SYSTEM FUNCTION, INCLUDING THE CONTROL ELECTRONICS.

I TOOK IT TO THE DODGE DEALER FOR A RECALL NOTICE I RECEIVED, THE RECALL WAS FOR THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD TO BE REPLACED. THE WORK WAS COMPLETED, I TOOK THE TRUCK HOME AND ASSUMED THINGS WERE FINE. IN JANUARY OF THIS YEAR I WENT UNDER THE TRUCK TO SEE ABOUT A OIL LEAK I WAS HAVING A PROBLEM WITH, I NOTICED THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS DIRTY LOOKING AND HAD SCRATCHES ON IT. IT HAD A BROWNISH KIND OF LIGHT FILM ON IT. I DID NOT LOOK LIKE A NEW ONE. I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER REPAIR SHOP FOR THEIR OPINION. THEY COULDN'T BE SURE BUT THEY SAID IT LOOKS LIKE AN OLD ONE ALSO, THEY INSPECTED THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND TOLD ME IT HAS RUST STAINS ON IT AND DOES NOT LOOK LIKE A NEW ONE. I AM IN NEED OF SOMEONE TO REFER ME TO AN EXPERT SO WE CAN DETERMINE IF WEATHER OR NOT THE DEALER ACTUALLY REPLACED THE THE PARTS OR NOT. CAN YOU HELP PLEASE.

IT'S A RANDOM OCCURRENCE. WHILE I'M STARTING IT, I HAVE TO RESTOP WHEN I'M DRIVING NO WARNING, IT'S A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THAT ADDS A HUGE DANGER WHEN YOUR TRUCK DIES IN MOTION IT'S A BIG TRUCK IT'S A WORK TRUCK WHICH MAKES IT EVEN MORE HORRIFYING.!! PLEASE TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY THIS IS A HUGE DANGER I CAN'T STRESS HOW IMPORTANT THIS IS AND I'M SURE ALL THE ALL OF THEM ARE

THE AIR BAG LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING OFF AND ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING. AFTER A FEW WEEKS, THE LIGHT JUST STAYED ON AND REMAINS ON. WHEN MY TRUCK WAS IN FOR SERVICE, I WAS INFORMED THE OCR MODULE HAD FAILED AND WAS QUOTED APPROXIMATELY $750 TO REPAIR. SEEMS TO ME THIS IS A NON-SERVICEABLE SAFETY COMPONENT THAT HAS FAILED. I HOPE THIS SYSTEM FAILURE IS A RECALL ISSUE.

I HAVE A 2010 DODGE RAM 2500 ST. THE VEHICLE IGNITION WON'T ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO START SOME TIMES. ALSO WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE TRUCK CUTS OFF AND I HAVE TO RESTART IT IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. IVE HAD TO ROLL TO THE SIE OF THE ROAD ON MUTIPLE OCCASSIONS UNTIL I CAN GET IT RESTARTED, LUCKILY I HAVENT HAD AN ACCIDENT YET. I GOOGLED THE ISSUE AND IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE WIN MODULE ON THE DODGE VEHICLES YET THERE HASNT BEEN A RECALL INITIATED. IT'S TURNING INTO A DAILY OCCURRACE WITH THIS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 RAM 2500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE RODE OVER A BUMP IN THE ROADWAY AND EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SEVERAL INDEPENDENT MECHANICS DUE TO THE FAILURE TO BE DIAGNOSED AND REPAIRED.

ON THE EVENING OF MAY 1ST, 2020, I PULLED MY 2010 DODGE RAM 2500 TRX 4WD INTO MY SONS? DRIVEWAY AND DROPPED OFF MY GRANDDAUGHTER. I WENT TO BACK OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY TURNING MY WHEEL TO THE RIGHT AS I BACKED OUT I HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE I RAN OVER A LARGE ROCK, AS I PULLED FORWARD I TURNED MY WHEEL TO THE LEFT AND PROCEEDED FORWARD ONLY TO HAVE THE TRUCK GO RIGHT BACK IN THE YARD WHERE I HAD JUST PULLED OUT. I REALIZED THAT THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE STEERING. I CLIMBED UNDER THE TRUCK TO DISCOVER THAT THE TIE ROD HAD SHEARED OFF AT THE PITMAN ARM. THIS CAUSED A COMPLETE LOSS OF STEERING. I HAD A FRONT-END ALIGNMENT ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO WITH NO ISSUES. PRIOR TO THAT I HAD A RECALL ISSUE WITH THE DRAG LINK ABOUT 3 OR 4 YEARS AGO WITH NO OTHER KNOWN ISSUES. I DO NOT DRIVE THE TRUCK OFF ROAD JUST ON PAVED ROADS. THE PARTS ARE THE FACTORY SEALED TIE ROD WITH NO GREASE FITTING. I HAVE BEEN REPAIRING VEHICLES FOR OVER 40. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS TYPE OF FAILURE. THE NORMAL FAILURE MODE FOR THIS PART SHOULD HAVE BEEN LOTS OF SLACK IN THE JOINT FROM LOSS OF GREASE. THIS FAILURE MODE IS NOT ACCEPTABLE! IF I HAD BEEN TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND THIS PART HAD BROKEN I WOULD HAVE HAD TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING AND YOU KNOW AS WELL AS I DO WHEN YOU HIT YOUR BRAKES THE VEHICLE TENDS TO PULL TO THE RIGHT DUE TO THE SLOPE OF THE ROAD WHICH IS DESIGNED FOR WATER RUNOFF. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A CATASTROPHIC CRASH RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESS IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE DIES! *TR

I'VE RECENTLY BOUGHT THIS TRUCK JUST ABOUT HAD IT 90 DAYS IN THE THREE MONTHS I'VE HAD THIS VEHICLE I'VE NOTICED BOTH HEAD LIGHTS WILL GO OUT AT RANDOM WHILE DRIVING, SITTING STILL OR TURNING. I'VE REPLACED THE BULBS 4 TIMES TO NO AVAIL, IT APPEARS AFTER SOME RESEARCH THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE 2500 TRUCKS. AFTER SPENDING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS I AM COURIOUS AS TO WHY CHRYSLER HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. I FOR ONE FEEL THIS ISSUE IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN

ORIGINAL TIPM FAILED AT 151000 MILES CAUSING FRONT TURNING SIGNALS TO MALFUNCTION. THE TIPM CONTROLS ALL ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS AND SENSORS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE VEHICLE INCLUDING FUEL PUMPS AND AIR BAGS. I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON A CITY STREET WHEN AN ALARM DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL NOTING A FRONT RIGHT TURN SIGNAL LAMP NEEDS REPLACEMENT. I REPLACED THE BULB PER REPLACEMENT BULB NUMBER SPECIFIED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL. ALSO, REPLACED THE TURN SIGNAL MULTI SWITCH WHICH BOTH ITEMS DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. MADE THE DECISION TO HAVE A CERTIFIED MECHANIC TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM.

I WAS ABOUT TO GO ON A ELK HUNTING TRIP IN WYOMING AND MY MODE SELECTOR DOOR GOT STUCK BLOWING ONLY ON THE FLOOR. MY WINDOWS WOULDNT DEFROST BECAUSE THERE WAS NO HOT AIR WOULD COME OUT OF DEFROST VENTS. LUCKILY IM A DIESEL TECHNICIAN BY TRADE AND HAVE THE ABILITY TO REPAIR PROBLEM. I REPLACED MODE DOOR AND PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED. AFTER READING ONLINE I FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS A VERRY COMMON PROBLEM.

I WAS ISSUES A RECALL NOTIFICATION THAT MY YEAR MAKE AND MODEL COULD POP OUT OF PARK AND GO INTO NEUTRAL RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE NOT BEING SAFE. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY ASSURED ME THE PART WAS IN. I WENT AND AFTER 2 HOURS WAS TOLD THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PART. THEY SAID THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THE PART WAS IN. I NEVER HEARD BACK FROM THEM. IF THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE I WOULD THINK THIS MIGHT BE IMPORTANT?

THE IGNITION SWITCH IS FAULTY ( WIRELESS IGNITION NODE ) THE TRUCK CAN TURN OFF COMPLETELY IN TRAFFIC UNEXPECTEDLY ON THREE SEPARATE CVASIONS IN TRAFFIC ON PUBLIC ROADS WHILE DRIVING THE TRUCK SPONTANEOUSLY TURNED OFF AND SHUT DOWN.. YOU HAVE TO PLACE IN PARK AND RESTART THE TRUCK THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND CAN CAUSE A CRASH

I HAVE RECENTLY EXPERIENCED "THE DEATH WOBBLE" IN MY TRUCK. (2010 DODGE RAM 2500) I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 75 MILES PER HOUR, WHEN I HIT A SMALL BUMP AND MY TRUCK BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY AND UNCONTROLLABLY ON THE FRONT END. APPLYING MY BREAKS DID NOT HELP. ALL I COULD DO IS HOLD ON FOR THE RIDE UNTIL I SLOWED DOWN TO APPROXIMATELY 35 MILES PER HOUR. I PULLED OVER AND EXAMINED MY TRUCK THINKING THAT SOMETHING WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED DUE TO THE EXTREME NATURE OF THE INCIDENT AND COULD NOT FIND ANY DAMAGES. I SLOWLY DROVE HOME AFRAID OF IT HAPPENING AGAIN. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT THE VIOLENT SHAKING IN MY TRUCK WAS CALLED UNTIL I RESEARCHED THIS SCARY EXPERIENCE. UPON CONDUCTING MY RESEARCH, I LEARNED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MY YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLE. I HAVE ALREADY TAKEN IT IN FOR A COUPLE OF RECALL ITEMS REGARDING STEERING ISSUES. I AM AFRAID THEY MAY HAVE REPLACED ANY RECALL ITEMS WITH FAULTY PARTS.

WHILE DRIVING HIT A BUMP KEY FALLS OUT OR TRUCK SHUTS OFF WITH KEY STILL IN

WIPER MOTOR MOUNT WELDS BREAK.

TRUCK KEEP SHUTTING IT SELF OFF AND WHILE DRIVING.

EXHAUST MANIFOLD LEAK ON 2010 DODGE RAM- THIS CAN DAMAGE PLASTIC COMPONENTS IN THE ENGINE BAY. IT CAN ALSO BECOME A HEALTH HAZARD, AS THE EXHAUST FUMES CAN ENTER THE CAR'S CABIN. UPON DOING RESEARCH MANY DODGE OWNERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME LEAK AND DODGE HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. MOST VEHICLES ONLY HAVE AROUND 50,000 MILES WHEN THE MANIFOLDS BREAK AND THE EXHAUST BEGINS TO LEAK.

EXHAUST SYSTEM GETS SO HOT THE BED LINER MELTED.

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE TRUCK WILL COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN, NO POWER STEERING, BRAKES, LIGHTS IT JUST GOES DEAD. NO WARNING LIGHTS OR CODES THROWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 10 TIMES NOW. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN IT HAPPENS AT NIGHT. *TR
