the recall number is 14V-635 or P65\n\nsays electric defect causes fires from heater Year: 2014\nMake: RAM\nModel: 3500\nTrim: N/A\nSeries: N/A

We were traveling on a highway doing 70mph and the whole truck started to shake really badly. My husband could not steer the vehicle safely, nor could he brake without losing control. He had to slow down until the shaking stopped. When we got back on the road, the vehicle did the same thing three times. This is known issue with Dodge, yet they don't have a fix for it. They call it the "death rattle"

ABS is not working and no part is available. Towing an RV without trailer brakes is dangerous. The ABS malfunctions at random and we never know when this will happen. ABS control deactivates traction control, as well as trailer breaks, and effects transmission functions as well.

The heater core in this model with the Cummins motor and of those around the same year plug constantly. I have to flush mine every couple of weeks in cold weather otherwise it will not keep moister off of the inside windows including the windshield as it just blows frigid air. A complete repair is $2,400+ and it will continue to plug even after the repair. It's common to need to frequently pull off of the highway and wipe down the inside glass to keep the windows clear.

The V06 Drag Link recall of welding the adjuster doesn't allow a complete front end alignment to be done correctly. If you have had the adjuster welded, you cannot re-center the steering wheel with the adjustments that have been provided by the manufacture. This itself presents a safety issue with the steering wheel now being off centered! I have not had the welding done and have been trying to get the drag link replaced since it has become loose again! Independent repair shops won't touch a RAM truck that has been welded or not do to liability. The replacement parts are now in stock and they should be replaced since the way that RAM says to now do an alignment only allow toe and camber but not re-centering of your steering wheel. I have confirmed that with RAM service. Ram Cares has not helped in this matter. Have a previous Request #1273536 with NHTSA. This is a major safety issue for myself and others on the road. Thank you for your time.

My service abs light comes on and off, which makes cruise control inoperable and rear park sensors inoperable. This also makes putting into 4x4 impossible unless I turn off the truck, switch to 4x4, and start it before the sensor kicks off. I’m worried about the abs mainly. I contacted my dealer and they said it’s a common issue but the part is almost $1k and backordordered for months. How is this not a recall or safety issue?

There was the V06 Drag Link recall which was to weld the drag link solid with no adjustment. I had it inspected on 3 May 19 where they found the nuts not properly torqued. I told them not to weld on the truck as this would cause extra expense to me when having any future work done on the truck. Had contacted Ram Cares to get a replacement drag link installed now that a replacement part is available. That didn't happen as the appointment that I had through Ram Cares couldn't happen without DM notes. There is clucking in the steering again like before and I'm sure it has loosened up again. I confirmed with independent repair shops that they would either not touch it do to welding or charge me additional cost to remove the weld and wouldn't re-weld do to liability. If Ram was willing to supply lifetime alignments for the truck, then no problem. The welding goes against how it's supposed to be fixed. I could be subject to a DOT inspection and truck impounded if there is welding on steering components. I know it's a discretionary rule, But could cost me time, money and other expenses for something that there is the correct replacement part available to fix the manufacture error. Thank you for you time.

Turbocharger actuator failure. Recognized as known issue for vehicles manufactured one year later (2015). All replacement cost covered by manufacturer and warranty extended. The replacement part for the 2014 RAM 3500 turbocharger actuator is MOPAR part 68481772AA and the replacement part for the 2015 RAM 3500 turbocharger actuator is MOPAR part 68481772AA (identical part numbers). Similarly, the turbocharger installation kits for both model years are identical. Multiple online complaints noted about failures in 2014 model years. I incurred $3000 expense to replace. Two detailed letters sent to manufacturer with no response or acknowledgement of receipt.

I HAVE 27 OPEN RECALLS, the steering wheel knuckle just keeps getting looser, nothing on the column will tighten, my wipers short out , I was sold a Omission deleted truck with documentation the day of purchase it was omission deleted, I was never told this vehicle was unsafe, The manufacture wants me to pay hundreds of dollars out of pocket for them to see if it maybe safe enough . Both Chysler, and the certified dealership of ford refuse to take any accountability or action

I was towing my 4 horse lq trailer from Ohio back to Illinois and without warning my whole wheel flew off. Left me stranded for days not to mention the accident I had to avoid when it happened

1. HCU and ABS. Yes available for inspection. 2. Faulty braking, faulty fuse control, faulty anti skid, electronics began random operations such as radio, gauges flashing and wipers working. 3.Yes. Dealer said bad HCU and ABS. Currently with dealer due to no part availability. 4. No. Dealership inspected. 5. Yes, in June 2022 the service 4wd light came on periodically when driving but when we got it into service it was working fine. July 2023 the lights began flashing, wipers going, warning lights flashing then no lights and the truck died. Had to have it towed to dealer.

ABS light, traction control, cruise control and the 4 wheel drive will not work. Part is on back order and was told November then January and now it’s August. I have a camper that I pull with this truck.

The Turbo Actuator failed while driving on a two-lane highway without a shoulder to safely pull over. The truck lost power down to a maximum speed of 10mph until I could safely pull off of the highway. The problem has been diagnosed with a OBD2 scanner. No other inspections by police or insurance. The MIL did not turn on until the vehicle was pulled off of the highway and at a stop.

- Steering linkage jam broke while driving. Not sure if available truck is at dealership - I was unable to steer the vehicle while driving. I could have died and killed multiple people if a car crash had occurred - Dealer has acknowledged they inspected the part but did not perform the recall as it was not cracked. This is not the remedy listed on the NHTSA. - No warning lamps or symptoms

The contact owns a 2014 Ram 3500. The contact stated while driving 75 MPH, the steering wheel was consistently turning to the left independently. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact veered to the side of the road. The contact stated that upon inspecting the vehicle, he noticed that the front driver’s side wheel was dislocated and turned to the left. The contact stated that upon wiggling the wheel to relocate into the normal position, he noticed that the front track bar bracket had started to detach from the frame. The contact stated that as he readjusted the front wheel, the front track bar bracket was pushed closer to the frame. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed that front track bar bracket needed to be replaced or the entire frame needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle could be repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V541000 (Steering) however, the dealer advised the contact that the manufacturer denied the request to cover the repair. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 300,000.

The contact owns a 2014 Ram 3500. The contact stated that while towing a trailer filled with horses, the bed had detached from the cab as she pulled into her driveway. When the contact unhooked the trailer, she discovered a 6-inch gap had formed between the cab and the bed of the vehicle. She also discovered cracks on driver’s and passenger’s side frame of the vehicle. The contact called the dealer and was informed that her vehicle was no longer under warranty. No further assistance was provided. The contact then called her insurance provider and was able to drive the vehicle to an independent mechanic for repair. The mechanic replaced the frame and had both sides of the frame steel plated. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had been repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

The contact owns a 2014 RAM 3500. The contact stated that while driving at 35 MPH, the front end of the vehicle started shaking uncontrollably. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that as he released the accelerator pedal, the brake exhaust turbo engaged, then he depressed the brake pedal. The contact veered to the side of the road, inspected the vehicle, and noticed that the front support track bar bracket was fractured at the A-frame. The contact became aware that the VIN was included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V541000 (Steering) before he owned the vehicle; however, the recall repair was not completed at that time because the vehicle had been lifted. The contact stated that the recall repair had been marked as complete though it was not. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and advised the contact that the recall history showed that a reinforcement bracket was not installed over the front track bar bracket; therefore, the recall was not completed. The contact stated that he used a strap and tied the front end of the vehicle and then drove to the dealer that was 1.2 miles away. The dealer diagnosed that the front support track bar bracket was fractured. The dealer informed the contact that the recall repair could not be complete because the previous owner had lifted the vehicle. The dealer submitted a report to the manufacturer stating the recall repair for NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V541000 (Steering) was incomplete because the vehicle had been lifted. The manufacturer updated the recall repair from "Completed" to "Inspected" in the vehicle recall history. The contact drove the vehicle to his hotel. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence in Florida. The contact stated that the recall repair was not completed on Power Wagon vehicles or vehicles that were lifted by the owners. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

I experienced a lack of power and I noticed that the engine temperature jumped by 40F immediately. The EVIC coolant temperature jump rapidly, but I never received a low coolant warning. I pulled the truck off of I-25 Northbound just south of the WY border. I waited for the vehicle to cool and added all of the coolant I had on hand, about 1.5 gallons. I carefully limped into Cheyenne, WY, towing my 40' 5th wheel to a spot where we could stay. I contacted Cowboy Dodge to identify the problem and repair it. The technician looked at my vehicle and he indicated the EGR valve was bad and needed replaced. The repair invoice is attached for reference. We departed Cheyenne after the fix, and we only got 44 miles out of town on I-80 when the engine coolant light illuminated, and the temp started to spike again. I coasted down the pass into Laramie, WY, in an attempt to get into cell service range and to get the truck off of the road if possible. We ended up stranded on I-80 just east of the exit for 4-hours waiting on a tow vehicle that could take us back to Cheyenne, WY, with our RV in tow. The same technician at Cowboy looked at the truck again and he indicated that the EGR cooler had failed. The failure allowed coolant to leak, undetected, into the combustion chamber. This caused carbon deposits, coal-like remnants, to be deposited throughout the motor and it was especially noticeable on the heat exchanger (see attached). This issue cased $7,000+ damage to my truck and I'm still finding issues related to the failure. I've had injectors fail, the heater core needed replaced again (3d), and the truck is smoking on startup with diminished power and sputtering at speed. I've included all Ram 2021 servicing invoices. This situation could have resulted in a catastrophic runaway on the motor resulting in fire. I lucked out by watching the gages. Stellantis (FCA) should be held accountable for their modifications to the Cummins motor causing these issues.

The rear driver's side upper shock mount was found broken during an inspection. The part showed signs of possible metal fatigue, and not a corrosion induced failure, resulting in the metal stem (retaining the upper shock) to "snap" off the welded shock mount bracket.

The component that has failed on this particular vehicle is the factory aluminum wheels manufactured by Alcoa for Mopar specifically for this model vehicle. The front wheels are the ones that are defective on this vehicle, structural cracks form on the outer lip of the wheels, and therefore pose a huge threat to the rim failing violently and the tire losing air or being destroyed in the process. This is the second time a wheel has needed to be replaced because of this issue. This defect has been brought to the attention of both dealership and manufacturer, however neither Dealership nor Manufacture wants to accept responsibility and pay to have the wheel repaired or replaced. Our vehicles are used as commercial vehicles, and are usually towing trailers or heavy loads. Having a front wheel failure during such operations, could pose a huge risk not only to the driver, passengers, and vehicle involved, but also to those surrounding motorist that maybe near or passing by the vehicle during the time of a possible wheel failure. Luckily both cracks have been detected during daily inspections, and none of these issues have resulted in a vehicle accident or injury while vehicle has been traveling down the road. No warning signs were present during the time of repair, and given the fact that the cracks can sometimes be hairline cracks and very hard to notice poses an even bigger threat to those who may not check their wheels on a daily basis, and could very easily be overlooked by the average consumer.

The shifter in the vehicle sticks when in park. On several occasions after being parked the shifter will not move to drive or reverse. Moving the steering wheel doesn't help. Only after pulling on the shifter hard does it move. Other drivers with this generation ram have shared on forums they have the same issue.

The contact owned a 2014 Ram 3500. The contact stated while driving 60 mph, the front passenger’s side wheel detached from the vehicle. The contact pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road. The contact had the vehicle towed to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the lug nuts had sheared off causing the wheel to detach. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 165,000.

The acceleration severely lags from a stop. When I’m stopped and try to go the truck hesitates and it’s very dangerous. This problem has been happening on and off for years. It’s very dangerous and unpredictable.

WHEN TRAVELING AT A SPEED OF 50 TO 75 MPH AND DRIVING OVER UNEVEN PAVEMENT OR TRANSITIONS (BRIDGES OR INTERSECTIONS) THAT ARE NOT SMOOTH THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES VIGOROUSLY. THE SHAKE IS TO THE POINT THAT YOU HAVE TO GRIP IT TIGHTLY TO ENSURE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE TO MAKE SURE YOU DON'T CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THE WHEELS WOBBLE BACK AND FORTH VIGOROUSLY JUST LIKE THE STEERING WHEEL. YOU CANNOT PRESS ON YOUR BRAKES UNTIL YOUR SPEED DROPS WHEN YOU LET OFF THE GAS. THIS HAPPENS ON ALL KINDS OF ROADWAYS. THIS FIRST HAPPENED ON 09/15/2016 AND STILL HAPPENS TO THIS DAY. I HAVE VIDEOS OF THIS HAPPENING.

TURBO ACTUATOR FAILED LEAVING US STRANDED WHILE ON VACATION. VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART ONCE POWER WAS LOST AND WE HAD TO STOP ON SIDE OF ROAD AND WAIT UNTIL THE ENGINE WOULD START. WE HAD BEEN TAKING THE VEHICLE TO A RAM DEALERSHIP TO TROUBLE SHOOT FROM THE BEGINNING BUT THE PROBLEM CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE OVER A PERIOD OF TIME FINALLY ENDING WITH THE ACTUATOR HAVING TO BE REPLACED. THIS ENGINE SHOULD BE LASTING BUT FAILED AT 109,082 MILES. THE PROBLEM WITH ACTUATOR FAILED US WAY TOO SOON FOR A RAM CUMMINS DIESEL WHICH SHOULD GET AT LEAST 300,000 MILES DURABLE WEAR. THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN ABUSED IN ANY WAY AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN PROPERLY SERVICED AT AN AUTHORIZED RAM DEALERSHIP. WE CAME HOME FROM VACATION AND TOOK TRUCK TO DEALERSHIP BECAUSE OF DANDER OF LOSING POWER. WE HAD TO TRAVEL THREE HOURS IN ORDER TO GET HOME FROM VACATION. THEN DO WITHOUT VEHICLE IN ORDER TO HAVE REPAIRED. THE AUTHORIZED DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS ALWAYS BEEN EXCELLENT, WE HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO COMPLAINT AGAINST THEIR SERVICE. I ACTUALLY SAW SEVERAL ACTUATORS WAITING TO BE RETURNED TO RAM BECAUSE THEY HAD BEEN REPLACED. I ASKED WHAT THEY WERE AND I WAS TOLD ACTUATORS THAT HAD BEEN REPLACED WAITING TO BE RETURNED UNDER WARRANTY! WHEN THIS HAPPENED TO US I WAS TOLD 2014 VEHICLES HAD NOT BEEN WARRANTED BY RAM. THE VERY FACT THAT THE ACTUATORS WERE FAILING SPEAKS VOLUMES TO ME BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE PART. AFTER WAITING ONE YEAR FOR RAM TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM IT IS OBVIOUS IT IS BEING IGNORED ON 2014 TRUCKS WHICH HAVE BEEN SOLD FOR POWER AND DURABILITY. IF ONE ACTUATOR GOES BAD THERE IS A RESPONSIBILITY BY RAM TO BACK THEIR PRODUCT. THE CUSTOMER HONORABLY PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE WITH FORETHOUGHT OF ENDURANCE SIMPLY BECAUSE OF THE PACKAGE PROVIDED SUITED FOR THE NEED OF PURCHASE. BY THE WAY, THIS IS THE FIRST RAM PURCHASED BY ME!!! WHAT DO YOU THINK???? *TR

IN THE LAST YEAR AND HALF, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START AFTER DRIVING SOMEPLACE, SEEMS IT DOES THIS EVERY FEW MONTHS, THE ONLY WAY TO GET IT STARTED IS TO EITHER ROCK THE TRUCK OR PUSH IT ABOUT 15 FEET. I'VE HAD IT INTO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES, THEY CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM NOR WILL IT NOT START FOR THEM. THIS HAS BECOME VERY FRUSTRATING! I TOW A 39 FOOT TRAILER AND THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE WITH IT NOT STARTING! HELP PLEASE.
