The passenger occupancy sensor does not work properly which disables the airbag even if somebody is riding and the passenger side because the vehicle thinks nobody is there this could potentially be fatal for the passenger during a crash I found this out when a passenger unbuckled the seat belt (this happens while driving or stationary) the chime/ light did not come on after further inspection I found that the in the seat pad sensor must be faulty I've reached out to Ram they have no intentions of repairing the faulty safety equipment.

While approaching an intersection the traffic light turned yellow. It required medium braking effort. When I applied the brakes the drivers power seat activated itself and mover ~ 2 inches forward which in turn ended up applying far more pressure on the brake pedal than was intended. Could have caused a vehicle behind me to hit my truck. Luckily there was no vehicle behind me at the time. I immediately check the placement of the seat belt to see if it could have activated the power seat switch. The seat belt was not near the power seat switch.
