I was driving my 2001 Dodge Ram 20-30mph and experienced a total power loss, power steering, power brakes and clock reset. My husband was also in the pickup and can attest to issue. I am an older person so had a very hard time stopping the vehicle and attempting to steer it to the side of the road. Traffic backed up behind me before I could put on my warning blinkers.Eventually, I turned off and on the pickup and everything worked somewhat normally but the vehicle went into limp mode. I got home, had the vehicle towed to the dealership. I explained issue, requested a total diagnosis of everything that was wrong but most importantly, I wanted the total power loss issue diagnosed, pinpointed and resolved. because I don't feel safe driving until issue is truly diagnosed and fixed. I gave them my lifetimecarmaxplus warranty. The techs found a list of parts that needed to be fixed besides the power loss problem, but told me they couldn't fix the total power loss because no codes had been thrown. I explained that since there was a total power loss it was reported by other Dodge techs that no codes could be retrieved. I asked the service manager to ask his tech what diagnostics were used and to what extent to determine the problem. He said he would call me after talking to his tech but never did. I went to the dealership 2 weeks later and asked what he found out from his tech. He was confused and apparently never did anything more about the situation. I called Chrysler warranty, they gave me a case number but again seemed oblivious to the total power loss and fixing this major safety issue. No one has attempted to address the problem or offered to have another mechanic inspect the vehicle. There were no codes that I saw on the dash and I did try to immediately retrieve any but none came up. The front passenger window locks also had been working intermittently 2 mos prior. My husband reported vehicle going in limp mode briefly 2 days prior to...all electrical issues

On multiple occasions, the engine has died while turning at an intersection. On every occasion I was traveling at the posted speed limit prior to slowing down in anticipation of the turn. On every occasion the engine died right in the middle of the turn, causing me to lose both power steering and brakes, forcing me to just manhandle it to avoid collisions and hoping the guy behind me didn't plow into my rear end. I took the vehicle to the nearest dealer service center but they were unable to diagnose the problem or fix it.

Takata recall the tipm went bad in my truck at 85,000 miles. Truck will not start at times, it will lock me out of my own vehicle (thank god my kids were never locked in). The fuel pump runs constantly even when the truck is turned off because the tipm does not allow it to turn off. It affects all of my electrical stuff, including radio, power locks and power windows. My windows will role down out of nowhere when the vehicle is turned off, and the windows will not role back up. The backup camera will come on while I am driving forward, my radio will freeze up to where I can no do anything to it. My key gets stuck in the ignition and will not come out! the whole entire truck just locks up. When you're driving, and it decides to shut off out of nowhere, I lose all power!!! no brakes or steering!!! its uncontrollable!! there has been many many complaints of this problem with the tipm in the 2011 Ram 1500 including people almost getting into accidents. My friend also had this same problem and totaled his truck because it locked up on him while driving! all of these complaints and well aware of the problem, Ram still decides not to recall it or even fix it!! if I was aware of this and known the danger I put myself in and others in everyday, I would have never purchased this vehicle!!

While driving on a 2 lane road at 50 mph approx speed, the engine shut off. Power steering and power brakes became extremely stiff, but I was able to muscle truck to shoulder. After stopping, I put it in park, the key was still in on position; turned key and engine started. I have owned this truck for 45 days and this has happened twice at totally random times. I am very fortunate I was on a road without much traffic. Had I been in a steering, passing or other situation, I could have been in a serious accident I learned from internet that this is a frequent complaint of Ram owners and other Chrysler product vehicle owners, and that a recall has been issued for certain Chrysler vehicles already. The faulty part was the tipm module. There is also a class action lawsuit in process involving other Chrysler vehicles not yet recalled, including the model I own. I took the vehicle into the dealer, and they could not positively identify the cause. They would not agree to replace tipm even though I'm under warranty, but instead wanted to do software updates on several "modules" and said if it happened again, I should bring it back. Totally unacceptable!!! I called Ram customer care and explained that the vehicle is dangerous and that I cannot accept a software update in the hope it fixes it given the tipm history of these vehicles. They advised that there were no diagnostic "codes" present, so they would not replace the tipm. They then admitted that a faulty tipm would not produce any codes, but again said they needed to rule out a software issue first by trial and error and refused to replace the tipm even though there was no way to diagnose if it was faulty. My son is driving this truck to college, and I am not about to risk him being killed in this vehicle so I was forced to pay $1,350 for a new tipm. Ram needs to recall these immediately.

We were traveling home July 18th on the interstate when the truck started shaking and he tried to get off the interstate on an exit. The stearing messed up and he like to have not got it stopped before we were running out of ramp. It' was light not having control of the wheel or brakes. When we got stopped he opened the hood to see if he could see a problem there. He also walked aroung the entire truck checking tires. We finally decided to try it again. We were then only about 60 miles from home. We drove slower the rest of the way because that was a very scary thing to have happen. Our granddaughter had softball practice wed. Night in knoxville tenn. It wasn't as bad as as the 18th but it done it a few times on us again. We haul presious cargo, our granddaughters, it scares us to death driving with them in tha truck. I taled to Chrysler 3 days ago and she told me I would get an email in a day or 2. she also has us an appointment to get the bolt put on on August 17th. But our concerns are it may have more damage because of the brakes and steering doing this. We only bought this truck on April 19th 2015. The recalls are from 2013. Why weren't they fixed then? the truck had not even turned over 50,00 miles when we bought it. We bought it because it had low miles and we want a safe vehicle to travel to her games and practices. Now we are afraid that something will happen and they might get hurt. I tried to call them again today, July 31st I was on hold for over 4 hrs.never did get a real person to answer.

Began when I purchased truck of integrated brake failure later turned into bad instrument cluster, visor short, new brake controller and lots of hours. When starting vehicle wipers come on, no interior lights, no turn signals (inside or outside) no heat, no radio no trailer brakes. Now vehicle has been at Dodge for 2 weeks. They replaced, instrument cluster, wiring harness, TPMS and problem remains. Very unsafe to drive as no indicators and wipers constantly on. Problem began around 1 month after purchase and plagues me today. I have extended warranty and I am charged $100 per visit. Customer care will not provide me with options I must dictate my choices. Terrible service.
