Was driving home from church with my children in the truck when the dash lights flashes. It said battery power saver mode and then Service Electronic Power Steering. And then I started to drift towards the ditch. Was able to pull my truck off the road but it could-??ve been an accident. I called my husband and he came to look at it. He happened to be at O-??Reilley-??s when I called him so he picked up some things and came to figure it out. After learning their is no steering fluid and doing some online research he checked the fuses. Put his code reader on it and no codes. Turn the truck back on the light was gone and steering was fine. We decided he would follow me home. Drove 12 miles and had no steering again. My truck has 98,000 miles on it. I-??ve already had the rear main seal/ exhaust manifold redone (dealer warranty), entire rear including calipers, brakes, ball joints, wheel bearings, and tie rods redone (dealer warranty), and the rear brakes including calipers out of my own pocket Twice!! I-??ve only had the truck for two years. Plus a few other miscellaneous electronic issues for my electrical ports, radio and dash lights, Traction Control, heated seats, and Electronic Braking System.

I was driving at high speed on the expressway and my electrical power steering quit working. I ran off the road and into the ditch because the truck was too hard to control without the power steering. I could have crashed into someone or injured myself. This is a very dangerous situation to be in if you are driving at any speed. If my wife had been driving it could have been fatal. Additionally, the repairs were over $3500. I will be selling this truck as it is too dangerous for anyone to drive. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Parked the truck and went into the grocery store, came back out and started the truck. Then I noticed the steering wheel with an exclamation caution -??? light was on and had no power steering. Drove 5 minutes to my house and parked it. This could have been fatal if I was driving and the power steering had went out then. It's time to get this item recalled before someone looses their life!

The vehicle was being driven home from work, when the truck went into battery saver mode and the power steering stopped working. I was moving forward and the steering became almost impossible to control. I am 6'2 and in good shape, so I manhandled the steering to control the vehicle, and I got the vehicle to turn, barely missing 2 parked cars. If I wasnt strong enough to turn the wheels, there would have been damage to property and parked cars. The only light to come on was "battery saver mode" on the Driver info screen. Problem was a faulty battery, but in same hand, there should be a better system in the steering if the power fails in the vehicle. This problem happened in Canada, but there is much better response to dealing with issues from this organization in the USA.

While operating my 2014 ram 1500 with approximately 76000 miles the power steering went out unexpectedly and without warning. There were no dash lights or indications of any problems with the steering system. Power steering was lost immediately Making it very difficult to steer and negotiate turns. I feel if this would have happened in the process of negotiating a turn it most likely would have resulted in a crash. I have not had the issue inspected or serviced at this time and no crash occurred.

Steering wheel sticks on both left and right turns. Spoke to my mechanic he advised there is a known issue on Ram trucks with the electronics on the power steering. He told us there are multiple recalls on this issue between 2013 and 2020. I called Chrysler and all they would tell me is my VIN is not under the recall. Told me to fix my truck and if it falls under the recall at any time they will reimburse me. I don't 2800 dollars to pay for it..

Occasionally upon starting the vehicle, the steering wheel would be locked up and the vehicle had to be turned off, then turned back on again to correct the problem. Recently, while the vehicle was stationary, the electric power steering warning light came on upon starting the vehicle. The steering wheel was locked up and very difficult to move. Restarting the vehicle did not improve the problem. The vehicle was towed to a repair shop that looked up the VIN and stated that the problem was covered under 'equipment safety recall VB9/NHTSA 19E-077 electric power steering gear.' The Dodge/Ram dealership was contacted and they claimed the parts used in the vehicle with this VIN are not included in the recall. Vehicle mileage is approximately 107,000 miles. The repair shop indicated that they believe the problem is with the 'eps gear, rack and pinion.'
