I was driving on the highway at a speed of 70 mph when my steering wheel locked up and the "power steering failure" notification appeared on my dash. I immediately called a Ram dealer and they told me I should have it towed do to it being unsafe to drive. After getting it to the dealer, they told me my power steering assembly ($2400) needed to be replaced and there isn't a recall for my truck. I contacted my warranty company and they said it would not be covered due to it being a technical service bulletin on the issue.

Since day one of buying this vehicle it has always been in the shop for air suspension problems sometimes for a few weeks at a time. Seems like no one knows how to diag the system because it was always darts thrown and no problems ever fixed, they have replaced airbags, compressor, charged the system, reprogrammed/calibrated the system and who knows how many fuses! ive gotten air suspension codes left and right with compressor temp codes... the main concern is the way this vehicle drives when it falls on bump stops and changes the camber of the tires ( has ruined a brand new set of tires due to inside tire wear on both front ) tires are screeching while driving down the road, bounces while turning and hitting small bumps... well that just makes you feel like you got in a crash when it throws you around out of seat! thats even at lower speeds around 40-45 mph! I absolutely fear for my life driving this vehicle and at freeway speeds its just playing with the devil. Its only a matter of time before someone is killed by this horrible air suspension system! the problem is no one seems to care... well unless it was their family member.the system was designed to fail when they put a compressor behind the right rear wheel that flings water, snow, salt and everything else on the road right at it and put some thin cover over it and say it " protects " it! I sure hope they do something before someone is killed, because its not fair to me or any other person to have to drive this vehicle and know everyday when going to work that it could be my last or someones else's last! ive given dealers shot after shot year after year, but something needs to be done about this asap

While driving the 2014 Ram 1500 the vehicle has lost power numerous times. This is an intermittent issue and I have not been able to duplicate on the spot. This means that the lose of power can happen at any given time. This lose of power will result in losing steering and sometimes braking, since all are controlled by electronics. These occurrences have happened while normal driving conditions; rolling up windows, turning on bright lights, and just driving.

The steering of the wheel is rough. I have to use small movements. It's like something is stuck or no power steering fluid. Since there is no fluid, only electrical, there is something wrong with the electrical portion of the power steering pump

I have a 2014 Ram with around 48K miles. Back in February while driving I lost steering. Luckily, I was able to get out of the way of a oncoming vehicle. I had my truck towed due to the safety issue of not being able to steer into my normal service dealer. They replaced the alternator stating that was the issue that made the truck lose steering. Since then I have taken the truck back a few times with steering issues and they are not able to 'duplicate' the issue so cannot fix it. This past Friday 11/15/2019 I went to leave my house and once again while I was driving the truck it lost steering and this time power dropped. I again had it towed into the service dealer on 11/18/2019. Today 11/22/2019 they stated that again they could not duplicate the issue. They did find error codes about voltage but however stated that the computer 'fixed itself' and cannot fix the steering issues. With all this I love my truck, however with the with the safety of myself, my family, and others on the road in mind driving this truck while the steering can possibly go out at any time is not a good idea by any means.

Driving to Indiana to see my grandbabies and the check electronic trailer brakes came on the check electronic braking system light came on. Cruise control stopped working and lost power, the same thing happened on the way back to Kentucky. I had the brakes done, but mechanic said it's a sensor I the steering column. This is really dangerous and needs to be recalled.
