I have two recalls on this truck,17V-562 and 17V-821. One dating back to September 2017 and just received 17V-821. Both recalls say the remedy for this condition is not currently available, and both are safety issues, fca sends out recalls and then does nothing! are you aware of this, is there nothing you can do. This is totally unacceptable!

I recently received a notice of recall on my truck, regarding the potential for the water pump to fail, causing an engine compartment fire. However, there is currently no fix for the problem. I am very concerned because, not only do I drive it every day to work, it is our traveling truck and we use it to haul our large 5th wheel trailer. The potential for an engine compartment fire to occur while driving, or while we're hauling the trailer, is quite scary. A fix for this issue needs to be determined quickly.

Dead pedal, when driving I.e.: in traffic with on again off again pedal I notice a brief period of "dead pedal " where there is no response. This has occurred more than once.

- Colorado Springs, CO, USA

I feel I my complain is on par with so many others with a newer Ram diesel. The dead pedal. I have nearly been hit more than 5 times now on several....several occasions due to no immediate acceleration at a light crossing an intersection, or going on the highway, switching lanes and trying to accelerate again. The delay in throttle response is the worst I have ever seen in a vehicle. My wife refuse to drive my "new" truck with our kids for this reason. I had my local dealer check it out and they said its normal to have such a bad delay, even said "Dodge dropped the ball on this one". I have had friends and family comment on how bad the delay/lag is! I am very disheartened by this to the point that I am now pricing out a 2017 F-350. We are purchasing a new toy hauler and in no way would I hook it to my 2016 Ram diesel due to the throttle delay/lag. This is my 4th Dodge truck and to switch brands has been a major issue for me. I test drove a new Ford F-250 (to be fair) and a F-350 dually and the take-off was insanely different. Shame on you Dodge for forcing me into this decision, but my family's safety is more important than brand loyalty. I hope this resonates with someone in a high enough position to actually do something about this, and not let me complaint just fall the wayside.

Dead accelerator pedal. If driving with steady pedal and let up on accelerator pedal and then step back on the accurate, the truck doesn't move/no response for 5-10 seconds, then the truck speeds off. Happens numerous times. Also if at a stop and need to have full power to get across a 4 lane highway/or make a rapid left turn, you are a sitting duck because the pedal doesn't respond.

- Las Vegas, NV, USA

This truck has excessive torque management. It can also be described as dead pedal. If you press the accelerator pedal you can expect a serious delay before any power is transmitted to the wheels and this problem is magnified if you have just applied throttle, let off and immediately need the vehicle to accelerate such as when merging or crossing traffic.

- Fairbanks, AK, USA

Driving on interstate 10 in traffic I went to accelerate to change lanes and my 2016 2500 the engine made a loud pop and lost all engine power. And didn't regain engine power for 3 seconds. It has done it several time since. It is a very scary feeling when your driving in heavy traffic. I do not get any codes or lights indicating a problem when this happens. Was told by dealer service manager that without any codes coming up that it would be impossible to find the problem.

- Jacksonville, FL, USA

Numerous times the diesel has stuttered and acted like it was going to die. This has happened several times. Was taken to sealer and was told there is nothing wrong with it. It is making weird noises while shifting and is now throwing a cel with the code P0421.

- Kingston, OH, USA

Today I had a close call. Cruising empty, not towing, someone pulled out right in front of me on the highway. Got on the brakes. Had a good opening in the next lane. Pushed down on the gas peddle and started shifting lanes. The truck wouldn't accelerate, not even a little. After what seemed like 2-3 seconds it started to accelerate, and by then the car behind me was getting very close to my rear bumper. I didn't push the pedal to the floor but maybe I should have. Anyway, I'm going to the Dodge dealer and having a formal note put into my file about the problem. Have had the truck 2 weeks. Not happy and this could be very dangerous. I looked online and it seems this is a normal unfixed issue with these trucks, but seriously dangerous.

This is a big safety concern. My 2016 Ram has major throttle delay. It becomes a safety concern when I'm pulling out into traffic, let off the accelerator and get back on it and it waits 1.5 to 2 seconds before the computer receives the command to give throttle. I have had one instance where I was proceeding to change lanes on the interstate and give it throttle but it didn't respond and then I was a sitting duck because my brand new truck didn't want to wake up and go. This is a known problem that is very well complained about by many Ram owners and it's only a matter of time before this will get someone either hurt or killed as a result.

My 2016 Ram 1500 almost killed me this morning. Truck has 4,000 miles on it. At 4 am I was driving on I-10 East bound 170 miles from pensacola. Cruise was set at 78 and I was in the passing lane. The road was pitch black. Without any warning the engine lost power and all electrical. Headlights went dark dash board, etc. Needless to say I was panicked and managed somehow to make it to the right shoulder. After getting to the shoulder emergency flashers would not work everything was dead. Just as I was considering getting out of the vehicle power came back on. I put on flashers and after I calmed down returned to the road. The next 200 miles were uneventful. I was scared to drive after dark after such an incident. I have a appointment in foley Alabama with Dodge next Monday morning. Also back in March I was waiting on the left turn lane and the transmission shifted from drive to park all by its self.
