We purchased a brand new Ram 1500 February 27, 2015. We've been having the same on going problem with the vehicle since we purchased this vehicle. We brought it to the dealerships attention on several occasions and have been told the same thing every time which is "yes we acknowledge the problem is their however there is still no fix ".this has been going on for over 6 months. When you bring the vehicle. To a complete stop, it jumps or shifts as if it's trying to jump into another gear. When you try to drive off in the vehicle the vehicle gives a hesitation like it's trying to go into a higher gear before you even pull off. On top of this the vehicle currently have 3 recalls on it. We should not be experiencing this with a brand new truck. We've contacted the dealership several times regarding this issue but we're not getting any results. They just keep saying we're aware of the problem but there is stilll not a fix. We do not feel safe driving this vehicle and would like to see some results! we've been getting the same results for the past 6 or 7 months and have decided to contact NHTSA, hoping to get some results.

Driving on level road at 30-35 mph when airbag went off without warning or reason knocking me unconscious. Truck went off road across field and hit trees at greater speed totaling the truck and giving me head injuries. Truck had recall on it for airbag on drivers side going off due to some wiring harness problem. Had taken truck into dealership the day before accident to have recalls taken care off. I guess not !!
