I was driving my 2014 ram in a 25 mph residential area, and went to turn right and wound up hitting the curb on the other side of the street because my truck would not make the full turn. I continued to drive and test the left and right turn, and it refused to turn on either side. There were no warning lights, and no codes were found when tested. I am infuriated that this is not considered recall material. It is extremely dangerous to the driver and anyone else in it's path. I am fortunate enough to not have been driving to work at 60mph. I had been loyal to dodge for years, but that is a thing of the past. I am in the process of buying another vehicle at a very inopportune time.

Our truck kept coming up with check engine, ABS and traction control lights. Come to find out, it is the ABS Module Control that needs to be replaced. In doing research, I have found that there have been numerous complaints on this same issue for years. At what point does it become neglect on Dodge" There have been accidents yet they're continuing to ignore this situation and it's allowed??"

My steering wheel felt like it was stuck and had to force it left or right to change lanes on the expressway at 75 miles per hour. The electric power steering rack is no longer working and it will not turn the wheels. It is still on the vehicle at this time. I could have lost all steering on the highway causing a collision. It has not been looked at by a dealer or independent shop yet. There were no lights or warnings before the incident however the next time I was going to drive the truck the steering wheel wouldn't move and I got a "Service Power Steering" message on the dash.

On 1.28.2024 my 2014 Dodge Ram 1500 R/T lost power steering twice making it nearly impossible to safely steer

- San Antonio, TX, USA

Approximately two weeks ago I was driving the truck and exiting off the interstate and at the end of the ramp intended to turn left as I had a green light. As I slowed to safely turn I lost all power steering assistance and ended up jumping the curb and leaving the roadway. Thank God I didn-??t hit anyone or damage any property. I was able to fight the steering wheel to make it home. I checked the power steering fluid level and condition of fluid for possible contaminants but found no issue. I remember a recall issued for 2015-2016 Rams for power steering failures. I believe the issue is much wider than initially thought. I have not gotten an estimate on the repairs.

My wife and I were leaving my daughters house Christmas Day when I started my 2014 Ram pickup and it felt like a locked steering column was locked. Shut it off and restarted it but it didn-??t respond. I had it towed the next day to the dealer that services my vehicle and the steering control module shorted out which meant the whole steering system has to be replaced at a cost of $3700. Plus 3 weeks to get the part. The only good thing is we weren-??t driving when it happened. As it turns out no recalls for what I consider a very dangerous condition with absolutely no prior warning. Researched and found out it-??s happened to many others while they were driving, but no deaths so Ram doesn-??t consider it recall worthy, so how many consumers have to die or get seriously hurt? It has 26540 miles!

Was driving one day while towing a trailer and all of a sudden while making a left turn the power steering went out which caused me to hit an embarkment and damage the front bumper area of my vehicle. My safety was put at risk because of the damage it caused and how difficult the steering became all of a sudden without warning or anything. There weren't any warning prior to the power steering going out, but as soon as it went out a symbol appeared on the dashboard. This was the first time that I have ever seen that symbol. Vehicle hasn't been inspected by anybody other than myself. Checked for recalls and saw that my 2014 wasn't included.

Electronic power steering was intermittently failing, but is now fully inoperable. Steering is hard and the electronic power steering light is flashing on the dash.

- Jacksonville, FL, USA

The electronic power steering system started to fail on its own. There was no real reason for this problem. There is full power to system and no blown fuses. It is a gamble as to when the system decides when it wants to work.
