POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:GEAR POSITION INDICATION (PRNDL)
DODGE RAM 3500 WITH CUMMINS DIESEL. I GOT OUT OF THE TRUCK ON AN ABSOLUTELY FLAT PARKING LOT, BELIEVING IT TO BE IN PARK. WALKED 30-40 FEET AND THEN VEHICLE BEGAN MOVING IN REVERSE GEAR AT IDLE AND HIT A CAR. DODGE PERSONNEL HAVE TOLD ME THAT DUE TO THE HIGH TORQUE, IT IS PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE. AS SOON AS THE FOOT IS REMOVED FROM THE BREAK, IF IT IS IN GEAR IT WILL MOVE AT A PACE FASTER THAN A PERSON CAN EXIT.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL:GAS RECIRCULATION VALVE (EGR VALVE)
SECOND COMPLAINT - 2004 DODGE RAM 1500 QUAD CAB HEMI WITH 700 MILES (I ONLY HAD FOR 2 WEEKS) BEGAN STALLING SO I BROUGHT TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE. THEY SAID IT WAS THE EGR VALVE AND THAT THEY WOULD NEED TO ORDER THIS PART ON NATIONAL BACKORDER. THEY RETAINED MY VEHICLE AND HAVE HAD IT FOR 3 DAYS. I KEEP CALLING AND THEY SAY THAT THEY CANNOT GET THE PART. I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY CANNOT HELP. THE DELAER REFUSES TO SWAP THE PART FROM HIS INVENTORY BECAUSE HE DOES NOT WANT HIS INVENTORY DISABLED, BUT IT IS FINE WITH HIM IF MY CAR THAT I ALREADY PAID 40K FOR IS DISABLED. WILL WRITE MORE WHEN I KNOW MORE. *AK
