problem #1

Dec 132003

Ram 3500 6-cyl Diesel

  • Manual transmission
  • 2,500 miles
Loss of power, check engine light comes on and all vehicle will do is idle(doesn't matter if you're doing 70mph on interstate or 35mph through town). Dangerous as you never know when this will happen, you could be pulling out into traffic, etc. Truck has been in the dealership service dept. 4 times for the same problem, they say it's fixed but this still continues.
