FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHILE DRIVING, AT RANDOM, A WARNING WILL DISPLAY STATING THE FOLLOWING: "SERVICE DEF SYSTEM. ENGINE WILL NOT START AT 200 MILES. SEE DEALER" THIS HAS HAPPENED 10 OR MORE TIMES SINCE WE PURCHASED THE TRUCK. WE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH ANOTHER 2011 DODGE RAM 5500 WHICH WE PURCHASED WITH THIS ONE. WHEN WE BRING IT TO THE DEALER, THEY CANT GIVE AN EXACT REASON WHY THIS KEEPS OCCURRING. THEY ONCE TOLD ME "ITS BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS GOING 65 MPH ON THE HIGH WAY WHILE TOWING A VEHICLE." THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON IN THIS VEHICLE SINCE THE MONTH WE PURCHASED IT. THE DEALERSHIP HAS A HARD TIME SHUTTING IT OFF & KEEPING IT OFF. THIS SYSTEM LOCK-DOWN OF OUR RAM TOW TRUCK'S IS UNPREDICTABLE, AND A MAJOR PROBLEM FOR OUR BUSINESS & NEEDS TO BE PROPERLY ADDRESSED AND FIXED.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS LETTING MY 2003 DODGE RAM 2500 CUMMINS WARM UP IN THE DRIVEWAY WHEN RPM SUDDENLY JUMP TO 3000 FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS AFTER THAT I LEFT TO GO TO WORK I WAS DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET GOING 30 MILES AN HOUR AFTER THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED INTO 3RD GEAR THE TRUCK AUTOMATICALLY ACCELERATED AS IF I WAS PUSHING FULL THROTTLE AND THEN LET OFF WHEN I HIT THE BRAKES, THEN I HAD NO THROTTLE RESPONSE I PULLED OVER SHUT THE TRUCK OFF STARTED IT BACK UP AND THEN HAD THROTTLE RESPONSE AGAIN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS NOW ON. ON MY WAY TO AUTOZONE TO GET MY CODES READ IT DID IT ONE MORE TIME WHERE IT ACCELERATED BY ITSELF I HIT THE BRAKES AND IT STOPPED ACCELERATING AND AFTER THAT I LOST THROTTLE CONTROL AS IN A "DEAD PEDAL". THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN IF YOU'RE COMING UP TO A STOP SIGN OR STOP LIGHT AS THE TRUCK MAY ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN INTO A BYSTANDER OR ANOTHER AUTOMOBILE. I THINK RECALL ACTION NEEDS TO BE TAKEN PLACE

AIR BAGS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
TAKATA RECALL WAS INFORMED EARLY LAST YEAR VIA RECALL NOTICE ABOUT THE ISSUE, WHEN I CONTACTED DODGE TO GET SERVICE THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. I INQUIRED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF DRIVING AND THEY COMMENTED..IF YOU DON'T FEEL SAFE YOU SHOULD NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THAT IS A POOR ANSWER FOR A $40.000.00 VEHICLE. ANOTHER ISSUE THAT IS A REAL SAFETY MATTER EVEN THOUGH DENIED BY DODGE IS THE DASHBOARD ON THE TRUCK IS A HAZARD DUE TO CHUNKS THAT FLY AT YOU DUE TO THE BREAKDOWN OF THE INFERIOR PLASTIC THAT WAS UTILIZED...ACCORDING TO A FORMER SERVICE MANAGER @ DODGE. I WENT TO DODGE AND THEY STATED IT WAS POOR MAINTENANCE AND HAD I ASKED DURING MY WARRANTY WOULD OF COVERED A PORTION OF THE REPAIR. HOW IS THIS POOR TREATMENT WHEN YOU GOOGLE THE ISSUE AND THOUSANDS OF COMMENTS APPEAR ON THIS MATTER? BELOW IT REQUESTS THE DATE, I AM UNSURE OF THE EXACT DATE JUST RECALL IT BEING EARLY LAST YEAR
