At first my truck started taking longer and longer to actually start. It would turn over but only run at 200 RPM and die out. This problem was sporadic and seemed to be worse after the truck had not been started for 12 hours. Eventually the problem went from occasional to weekly and daily. There was no dash lights indication an issue. My truck stalled twice on me while driving to work. Each time the vehicle stalled I would sit in the street, luckily no one was behind me and that I was not in a turn. When the vehicle died I would lose all power steering. I drove directly to a mechanic. He checked it and saw no major issues, stating that all of the readings were normal when checked. We decided to change my spark plugs and flush the fuel system in an attempt to solve the problem. Drove great after the work. The next morning it did not start, back to mechanic again, was told to leave the key turned to on position to help the fuel pump prime/ all readings were normal. Issue persisted. Left truck at mechanic third time while out of town for the week so he could take readings after the truck sat, since that was when the issue happened. Again the mechanic was not confident of what was causing the issue since there was no check engine light. The problem got worse, it was taking me over 45 minutes to start truck each day, it would crank but not start. Then im started noticing my battery was dead on many mornings. I thought it was due to how long I was cranking to start, until one day when I happened to walk by my truck and hear a humming sound. I went underneath and could tell it was the fuel pump. I unplugged the fuse for the fuel pump and the humming stopped. For now I just unplug the fuse every time I stop to keep the pump from drawing down my battery. Contacted local Dodge dealer and was quoted $1200.oo to replace tipm.

For two weeks the truck take 4 to 7 tries to start the engine. It has shut off while driving. Now the fuel pump is stuck on while the key is removed from the truck killing the battery. Had to remove the fuel pump fuse to turn off the fuel pump while the key is removed from the truck.

In the parking lot of my apartment complex my truck would try to start, but do nothing but crank. I thought my fuel pump was out so I replaced it. The truck was still having problems starting. I noticed that sometimes I would hear the fuel pump come on and sometimes not so $260 dollars later I still had the same problem. After doing some additional research and actual tests I found out that a relay on the tipm is malfunctioning. It is aa $5 dollar relay on a $1200 dollar part that is not covered by warrenty and cannot be easily replaced. Dodge is currently under suit for the faulty tipm's.

In a nutshell, , my truck had about, ,,14K mikes on it. Purchased new. It took off in exess of 100mph. Couldn't stop it!!!!!!! almost killed my son and I!! have been fighting, ever since to get Chrysler to replace the motor, , as it sounds every bearing in the motor, , when I finally put transmission in neautral to stop the truck. To date, the truck has a rearmain leak, because of instead of replacing the motor. Chrysler, tried to take the cheaper way out and only replace a part at a time. In doing so this, cost them way more $. motor no longer has a bearing noise. But it does have a rearmain leak. That they have tried to repair 3xs so far!! now, ,,,, I'm still waiting to see if they will replace the motor, or try again"?? last I knew the goslden rule was 3 xs and ure out!!!! my patience, is gone. The truck, has spent most of its life in a dealers garage. And most of its 40K miles are from the dealers tech. I have all documentation to prove everything I say. All from the day it took off on me. The real problem is..... why did it take off? and the answer to that. I figured out. Who wants that info" cause I have figured that out. It took 3 yrs. To figure out. Is all I want is a new vehicle, as I never got to enjoy that. Just cost me alot of time, and $.

Headlights are not normal brightness (compared to any other vehicle I have ever driven) and ineffective for night driving. Cruise control works and disconnects at will. Horn signals at will without notice and even when vehicle is off with keys removed. Causes great and frightening reaction of this driver as well as those around me.

The fuel pump relay is bad. The fuel pump keeps running when truck is shut off which runs down the battery. The tipm needs replaced but there is a backorder on the part.

- Stamford , CT, USA

The truck would not start after multiple attempts it was towed to a repair facility where it was troubleshot for 8 hours. It was determined that there was a fault in the tipm module causing intermittant power to the fuel pump, however, before a new tipm could be installed, the fault seemed to self-resolve and the truck once again began to work. Now unsure if/when the tipm will once again misfire.

Diving through the mountains on a very dark night and both headlights went out at the same time. I could not see anything. Thank god my tail lights and hazard lights still worked or I may have had someone run into the back of my car. I was also fortunate to have a car stop and help. I followed this gentleman through the mountains using his head lights and simply focused on his tail light. The next morning, I started my car and both lights were working again without anything being done. Now I have the left light that is not working and suspect that it will also come back on whenever it wants to. This is an extreme safety issue that may cause some to run off of the road due to not being able to see. Please assist.

While driving my pickup truck at a speed of 30-35 mph, the power turned off and the speed decreased at a fast rate. Luckily, I was able to pull into a business to turn my ignition to "off" and turn my vehicle back on. I did not have access to any electrical equipment in my vehicle. This has happened four times in the last 2 months.
