The air suspension in my Ram 1500 fails suddenly without notice. When the air suspension fails, the truck becomes very unsafe to drive. It is difficult to keep the truck on the road and it happens without warning. Sometimes it corrects on its own when I restart, other times I can make it work for a while by disconnecting the battery. Right now the driver side isat least 3 inches lower than the passenger side.

All at once I have an ABS, Brake, Traction Control on instrument panel illuminated.Service Trailer Brake diagnostic message. Will not set cruise. 06/03/24. Am not driving for fear of failure and presently cannot afford diagnostic repairs. Just turned 100,000 miles and is not used for daily uses. Cannot believe a failure of this magnitude happened with very low mileage

While driving home my truck started making an unusual sound like a dry bearing rubbing in a bearing would make, and I found it difficult to keep the steering wheel centered, a little further down the road I made a turn while doing so the steering wheel abruptly cut back the opposite direction of the turn yanking the wheel out of my hands no lights on the dash illuminated nor were there any warning chimes, I was able to make the last mile home by keeping both hands on the wheel firmly. Upon an inspection of the underside of my vehicle I found that the electric power assist system was making the loud sound that I thought was a bearing, I also noted that the front sway bar was broken on the passenger side was broken, I turned the the steering wheel to one side then the other and again the power steering yanked it from my hand, at this time I haven't taken it to a garage or called my insurance company, if I had been in traffic or congested area it would have caused an accident but as it was I was traveling a country road

On 26 July 2023 I was driving on the feeder road on west 610 south in Houston Texas. While making a left turn onto MLK Blvd my power steering quit in the middle of the turn. The service power steering light illuminated and the steering was very difficult. I was able to manhandle it back to the house but upon arrival it was almost impossible to get the truck into the driveway due to the steering being so hard. After finally getting into the driveway I turned the truck off and then on again and the steering seemed normal. I haven-??t driven the truck sense. My current mileage is 70368. Luckily I wasn-??t on the freeway when this occurred as this was during rush hour traffic. It was already bad enough that the he issue occurred at a traffic light with a dual left turn into three lanes. This is a major safety issue that CDJR should issue a recall for. I have read that there are thousands of other similar complaints for the same issue and was told by the dealer that the parts are on back order. The issue with the steering commands an immediate safety bulletin and a recall as it puts not only the driver and passengers at risk of serious injury or death, it also places the risks on the general public.

I was driving and slowing down to 45 mph going through Corrigan, TX on 59. The truck all the sudden accelerated pulling to the left, then all of a sudden slammed to the right and went over a curb. I had no steering control and my foot was all the way down on the brakes to try and stop. I'm lucky it didn't happen 20 min before when 75mph was speed limit. The a frame broke, Ball joints, broke rack and pinion, cracked the weld that holds the a frame to the truck, and I'm not sure what else is broken yet. My rim and tire both need to be replaced. The aluminum broke straight across. This should not have happened and could have gotten me and others killed. I am getting the truck taken to dodge to find out what all broke and how much it is going to cost. I should not have to pay for this. This should never happen and it put me and everyone around me in danger. I am still a nervous wreck from this.

The contact also stated that after the vehicle was started, he was driving at an undisclosed speed however, the vehicle failed to switch from the exit mode causing the vehicle to drive lower to the ground than normal.

Truck air suspension consistently fails dropping to the frame bump stops on drives (moving) when aero mode is automatically engaged. Truck does not recover to normal ride height and prevents proper handling of the vehicle (in motion). Long drives in aero mode (above 60 mph) causes the system to fail and truck body drops shortly after, or fails completely. Truck cannot handle the lowering modes without failing (aero or entry exit). Truck will also lower itself without warning (stationary). Was washing (stationary) truck and cleaning wheel well when rear of truck started to drop. This is a dangerous situation, anyone changing a tire or working under their truck could get caught or crushed when suspension fails or drops without warning. Driving when suspension fails could cause the driver to lose control when truck collapses to frame (no suspension). This causes the truck to violently hop off the payment (tires losing contact with road) even with the slightest bump in the road. I am the original owner of the truck and it's been to the dealer 4 times in the last 5 months. I've replaced the air compressor, value block (where air suspension lines intersect) and air lines. Didn't fix the issue. I've communicated this issue to Chrysler customer service Ram. No response yet. This is a dangerous situation and Ram needs to resolve this problem or provide and effective resolution \ fix. Please help. Suspension problems have been ongoing for six months. 03/15 is the latest occurrence.

My vehicle has a problem with the air ride suspension, where the front end has lowered and the entire system will not respond. I have looked on some websites and found out that this is a common problem, and for some, a real safety issue. I have not found a recall for this issue, and wondering why. I bought this truck in 2019 and did not realize there was an issue that does not have remedy. This is a safety issue and should be addressed as such. My vehicle was stationary at the time, although, many on the website complained that it happened while driving.

Vehicle has 77,000 miles and @ 1000 miles ago a noticeable change in ride and handling. Ride has become very stiff at all speeds above 35 mph. Vehicle also has a tendency to give the felling of floating when cornering. I have taken it to the dealer 4 times and they cannot find any codes to tell them something is wrong" they have change many parts, shocks, idler arms, rubber suspension bushings, etc, they have acknowledged the rough ride, but cannot find the reason" I believe it is a sensor or regulator valve, that controls the air suspension at various speeds and when cornering. The truck rides like the there is excessive air pressure in the air bags to soften the ride at various speeds,

My truck has an air suspension system. The issue began when the front passenger side air bag began to lower three inches overnight. Then on the highway I received a message from the truck saying the suspension needed immediate attention. When I got to the destination both the front and rear passenger suspension failed and was riding on the frame. I have had the ascm and nitrogen replaced, but the both front suspensions lower 2-3 inches while it sits overnight.

Immediate air suspension service required immediately light comes on. The vehicle bounces so bad it is hard to drive. Took truck in 5 times for service at dealer and still not fixed

- Port Huron, MI, USA

While driving on my he highway my truck lowers to the bumper stops and has no suspension making it difficult to steer. They're saying it is the whole air suspension which they just throw a new part at and release it to me to drive without really fixing it.. my truck was purchased in September 2019 with a mopar max care extended warranty. When the event happened in November the first time, I had it taken into razzari Dodge where extended warranty was purchased. It has now been in there for the 6th time. I took it back January 28th and is still there. Each time they've given it back saying it was repaired, I have almost wreaked on the freeway each time.. they have been working with the Dodge star engineers but won't give me the information on my vehicle safety.

My 2013 Ram has a constant vibration which starts at around 40mph and continues all the way up to 75+ mph. I've replaced all 4 tires 3 times. The last set are Michelin. On all 3 sets of new tires I had them balanced a total of over 15 times. Had road force testing done on the newest set 5 times. I still feel the vibration. I bought the tires and had them road force balanced by a national tire chain. Then I took the truck to a local Dodge dealer/service center. They road force balanced the tires twice and told me the problem wasn't the tires or rims. Then I took the truck back to the store where I bough the tires, they road force balanced them again and still I feel the vibration. The service managers at both locations said that they personally drove the truck for a road test and they both said they couldn't feel the vibration. Believe me, it really shakes. It's annoying and I'm sure it's not good for the truck overall. The truck has only 122,000 miles on it and has been vibrating for about 100,000 miles. I bought the truck new and purchased the unlimited warranty. Unlimited. This problem should be covered by the Dodge warranty, so I don't understand why the dealer wouldn't get to the root of the problem. I really like the truck, but this vibration problem is making me very angry. Is there a recall that addresses this problem" if not, what should my next step be" thank you in advance for your consideration and help.
