Bought the pickup in January 2016 one previous owner everything original the passenger side headlight connector pin needs tightened constantly because the low beam high beam loses connection and won't come on unless you pull headlight and tighten the connector pins. It happens at various times in various situations while driving it will also flicker on and off. Parklight works fine. I don't know actual date because it is so frequently so the date is an estimate. The speed varies also first time I was at 65 on freeway.

2013 Dodge Ram 1500 tradesman caught on fire when I was driving it.

- Cleveland, TX, USA

Purchased truck certified used in Oct 2015. Since then, I have had approximately 9 instances of my instrument panel (or cluster) completely shutting off while I am driving. When it shuts off, the screen in the middle completely goes black, the rpms and speedometer, and other gauges go to zero. After a second or 2, everything turns back on as if I had just started the vehicle (Ram logo pops up, check engine light is on, oil temp light is on, gas light is light on, seatbelt light is on, ect). All gauges then get back to their previous readings, as far as I know, just before the reset. Each time this has occurred, I have been traveling anywhere from 35-55 mph on a straight road. I have taken it to 2 dealerships to have them look at it with each time telling me if they can't duplicate the problem, there is nothing they can do. On a recent incident (9/27/16), it happened on the way to work, so I brought it in that day, as the last dealership instructed me to. Once again, they couldn't pin point the problem, but had contacted Chrysler to see what they wanted them to do. Chrysler had them do a software update, and a week later I had it happen again at night (10/4/16), and once again the next morning (10/5/16). I am hoping that this issue doesn't cause a problem with the power steering and I just haven't experienced that yet. Please help!

Similar to NHTSA id number: 10898441 I have also experienced an interior dome light flickering and also the drivers power window door lock switches stopped working. I was locked out of the vehicle and it was running with all doors locked (by itself) and windows were rolled up. I had to call roadside assistance to get into the vehicle. The switch continued to attempt locking of the door by constantly clicking. Which I found out the next morning when the battery was dead. I found out this vehicle was made for and first sold in Canada which if that was disclosed to me I never would have purchased it. The digital speedometer and the mechanical speedometer are not showing the same speeds. At 30mph the digital one shows 32mph but at 70mph the digital shows 75mph. Repairs attempted at lithia Chrysler Jeep reno nv unsuccessful. When the door locks failed to work the truck was stationary and this locking also occurred while the vehicle was in motion at slow and fast speeds, city and highway.

Uconnect unit went out, no error codes it was dead no radio no A/C controls. Chrysler replaced it in August 2016. Within weeks ( Sept. 17th) I was on I-59 headed out of town the entire dash went out, instruments reset came back on, 30 minutes later dash went out again and reset, 20 minutes later dash went out again. I turned around and headed back home it went out 2 more times. Speed seemed to not affect it as I was at different speeds and also in park when it went out. I have owned the vehicle for 3.5 years and never had problems until the uconnect unit went out nor did the A/C drip water on my foot and gas pedal which it has now been doing since uconnect unit was repaired now gas pedal is slick with water. I took it to the dealership on Sept.19 after calling Chrysler. Dealership first said BCM was bad waited to see what Chrysler was going to do. Then I get told by dealership a week later that it is instrument cluster. I talked to Chrysler and told them my concern something is making the electrical act up and doing research it makes sense that it could be BCM since both uconnect and instrument panel are connected to it. I now see by reading this site I am not the only one with this dangerous problem. Chrysler needs to find and fix the problem. Parts changing I.e. the uconnect unit and now the instrument panel (at my expense), does not solve the problem and now I am leery about traveling long distances because no one has 'found' the issue causing all the electrical problems. Water (condensation) dripping all over my gas pedal is dangerous and dealership is not concerned, gave me a lecture on using recirculate on my A/C (which I do). My truck only has 23,000 miles on it there should not be all these electrical problems.

Today while driving on the highway at 65 mph, my instrument panel went completely black and speedometer went down to zero. My truck stayed running and driving, but I could not read the speedometer or gauges or operate any turn signals. This happened 5 times on my 45 minute trip. It was very scary as I was in the center lane in houston, tx on 610.

On July 22nd when leaving work, the vehicle was driven out of the parking lot and took two left hand turns and a right hand turn onto a busy road. The turn signals were working intermittingly the last time they were used. Once the right hand turn was completed, and began driving down the road, the drivers steering wheel airbag deployed. Once the vehicle control was regained it was pulled over to the side of the road and shut off. The airbag looked to have burn hole in it and there was the smell similar to plastic melting. The key was turned back on and at that time no turn signals would work and the wipers would not stop operating. Although the airbag deployed and diverted attention when it went off, it did not fully inflate either. The dealership was contacted and they recommended filing a complaint with Chrysler. Since the dealer was only a couple miles away, the vehicle was driven to them. I contacted Chrysler and filed a complaint. They advised that the dealer is not to touch it until an investigator contacts them, and that I will be provided an alternate source of transportation. I contacted Chrysler and was advised there was nothing they could do and it was in the hands of a different department that I was not allowed to contact. After numerous requests to speak with a supervisor and the alternate department, I was finally contacted by Mr. Kon of special investigations on August 15th. He advised that there will be no transportation provided unless Chrysler determines that they are at fault for this. He was also unable to provide any timeline as to when someone would be able look at the vehicle. The dealership is also taking the approach that they will not offer a source of transportation until it is approved by Chrysler. The R36 recall related to this same symptom was reportedly done by the dealer in the spring of 2016.

Shortly after buying this pickup it would stall, the dash had an red electrical indicator exposed. The power steering shut down, the brakes were no longer power brakes.. this happened at speeds up to 45 miles an hour. Never happened at high speeds. I live & drive on mountain highways, and at times it took my breath. I would apply the gas pedal, it would eventually begin running again. No matter the time of year. It wasn't every day, maybe go along 2-3 months not happens, but it might happen every day for a couple of days. I took the pickup to Town & Country dealer in alamosa co. Twice, they would drive it. The explained to fix it, they would need to see it happen. I decided to drive it. However, today I have to rely on other people to drive it, and I worry now about there safety. I decided to take a trip in September of this year, and I have a friend driving for me. So I decided to research the web on this problem, finding there were several cases of this happening to doge pickups. One fellow was driving 80 miles an hour in the "fast lane", his stalled. He recommended that if you've had this happen to notify your state attorney general. I did, they ask I file it with you. I'm not angry with my dealer, other than the fact they ask me to notify Chrysler, and I told the they should represent me as their customer with the company. I'm 77 years old, been driving over 60 years. I've never hurt another person in a wreck, but this pickup is dangerous. I could trade it in, but that isn't a christian type thing to do to another party. It's a dilemma that I have no answer for. If it were only this pickup it would be different. It's the only mode of transportation that I currently have. My driving is generally over these mountain roads, to pueblo, Colorado springs, maybe denver. Chrysler corporation needs to understand the threat this pickup is over these highways. Help

The steering wheel has a short in the wiring which caused the cruse control, horn, information center controls, voice recognition controls, to stop working dealer claims that this issue is not currently under any recall and that accidental air bag deployment should not be an issue. I believe this to be a safety issue. Also found with this issue that there is in fact recall for this vehicle ( not VIN specific) for a similar issue ( not that descriptive) which can cause inadvertent air bag deployment during vehicle operation.
