When driving on the Florida turnpike at 70mph when the power steering assist shut off. I pulled off, restarted the engine and it was working against. Checked the fluid levels and everything was ok. No more incident that trip. Took to the dealer who diagnosed a faulty power steering module in the eps. Required replacement if the entire steering rack. Invalid VIN

I was accelerating my truck on a city street at approximately 45 mph. The power control module, battery control module, crank position sensor, tone wheel and power steer control module all failed at the same time. The truck shut down and had to be towed into the dealer.

Lost electrical power steering cannot steer truck

- Confluence, PA, USA

The power steering quit working as I was pulling out of my driveway onto our street resulting in inability to steer the truck effectively. A warning light appeared & I had to look online to see what it meant as the manual did not have it. I had to have the truck towed to pueblo Dodge & service advisor leslie later notified me of a $2,300 cost to repair the rack & pinion to get the electronic power steering working again. I have learned that many other people have had this problem with their 2014 Ram 1500 P/U's in even more hazardous conditions on the road/street. It has about 46,000 miles on it. I am told that there is no recourse by the Chrysler customer svc rep ernesha but she will file my complaint. It will not go any further than that as she says it is not worthy and out of the original warranty. Leslie says it is not part of the 100,000 mile drive train warranty. I was considering purchasing a new Ram truck as well but absolutely will not based on this experience as I will apparently have to pay at least $2,300 to repair a hazardous defect in a relatively new vehicle in excellent condition otherwise. I am obviously very disappointed in this company and situation.

While driving my vehicle, on a turn in either direction my steering wheel would jerk back the opposite way. This was a sudden onset without warning. Eventually it led to barely being able to turn the truck at all. No service lights were on, dealer said that it would eventually go out and not be able to turn the vehicle. Mine is a 2014, there was a 2018 in for the same problem when I went to the dealer. Dealer had also had 4 other trucks (same model) in the shop within the last few weeks and the part was on backorder. Dealer had no information on a recall but if this is happening in 2018 models and the dealer has them in to be worked on in large numbers this clearly says there is something going on. It is unsafe and dangerous to be driving not knowing when it is going to lock up. I know my truck has over 100,000 miles but there are 2018 in there that barely have any on them.

Very hard to steer when moving, any driving city or highwaymore going around turns or turning corners, it goes extremely hard, then easier the hard again, I was told there are recalls for it starting 1/2015, this is extremely dangerous, I have no pictures since you can't see a problem. The problem is getting worse, does this at any speed

Vehicle has just under 77K miles on it, powertrain warranty expired end of February due to time restraint before reaching the 100K miles limit (7yr/100K mile on a certified used) vehicle purchased March 2016. While driving this week the power steering randomly fails causing the wheel to snap to one side, at freeway speed this could be fetal. I have read forums of several others having the same issue in the past and it costing $2,000-4,000+ to replace the esp (electronic power steering). Part is not fixable without replacement and under 100K miles should not be having this issue. Extremely dangerous if this would've happened at freeway speed, I had the first occurrence while turning a corner at approx 25mph nearly sending me off the road. Restarted the vehicle and problem went away leading me to believe it may be a one time software glitch. Vehicle had no problems for the next couple days and now the steering has repeatedly failed causing me to be unable to drive it.

While driving on the freeway, the steering started to get almost un-steerable and stiff. Dealer says complete steering system needs to be replaced. Truck is only 4 1/2 years old and is very well maintained.

While driving down the street and making a left hand turn, the wheel felt hard to turn, but then was fine after that, about 5 minutes later getting onto the highway the wheel got tight again, and while merging onto the highway the wheel was extremely difficult to turn. Taking an exit and making a right hand turn I had to use all of my effort to turn and straighten back out. Felt like the wheel was going to lock up. Making turns the rest of the way back home was very difficult. The eps system will turn back on when the wheels are about 3/4 of the way turned, and turn back off making the turn very difficult then briefly easy. But when I was having to use my body to turn and then eps kicks back on I made a violent turn and had a very hard time getting back strait and in my lane

Dodge Ram steering recall alert- this same situation happened to me in my model 2014 Dodge Ram 1500 big horn. Recall needs to be extended the nut holding the steering knuckle and right control arm separated while driving. I felt a huge pop and jerk of the steering wheel. Luckily I was traveling at a low rate of speed. I took to suncoast Dodge dealer immediately, he said I was lucky I could if I was on the freeway which I was shortly before. He said he has never seen a nut fall off before, but it did and, could rolled and caused serious accident. I was charged for repair and picked up truck today 2/5 then saw recall for this exact situation released today by Chrysler Fiat, but my vehicle was not included.

During cold weather in Minnesota, the electronic power steering failed to respond causing my truck to go into the ditch.

- Circle Pines, MN, USA

The factory "air ride" suspension fails in cold weather. The air bags completely deflate, leaving the vehicle with no suspension. Losing all suspension ability while driving is a serious risk to life. Encountering small potholes or icy roads without suspension increases the likelihood of wrecks. The lowering of the suspension changes the steering geometry required to properly steer a vehicle on the roads. Camber, caster, and toe of the steering geometry are negatively effected and will result in increased likelihood of wrecks. I took my vehicle into the local Dodge dealerships in Alaska and they acknowledge the air ride suspension does not function here but cannot make repairs. I called Dodge corporate line and they ask me to take it back to the same dealerships that inform me that there is no fix. Please issue a recall on the Ram 1500 air ride suspension as this is a serious risk to life allowing these vehicles to operate in cold climates.

I have notifications of these various recalls and have tried to get these corrected or at least checked out at the dealership where I purchased my truck. First I was told that appointments were now required. Then I was advised that 1st come/1st served was now required and full schedules are usual. Now I received another notification. I care for my Ram, but my time is also important.

Electric power steering failure when cold. Once vehicle warms up it will work. Afraid the steering will fail while driving. Known problem by Dodge and Chrysler. 2015 Ram have been recalled for same issue I understand. Can't understand why 2014 is not included. Thanks for your assistance with this serious safety issue.
