After completing the approved emissions modification, per the fca-epa lawsuit settlement, I've noticed substantial turbo lag and shifting issues (holding gear too long). This is particularly dangerous when pulling out onto streets or expressways where I need to accelerate up to speed quickly. There is a 3-5 second lag before the turbo begins spooling and my truck begins accelerating.

After getting the most recent 'V08' recall on my 2015 Ram eco diesel I've since had extreme lag on the truck when taking off. This make it extremely difficult when pulling out into traffic. This was not an issue before the update.

I recently had the aem recall update done on my 2015 Ram 1500 ecodiesel and now my truck's performance and fuel mileage has really suffered. Lost about 3 mpg and the truck is very sluggish now. It makes it dangerous to drive. It just barely moves when you press the accelerator pedal to merge into the flow of traffic. The transmission shifts rough and revs the engine higher before changing gears. Very disappointed in the recall and fca for making a good running truck into a dangerous to drive piece of junik!

I had previously filed a complaint in regards to the effect of the aem (V08) ecodiesel class action settlement recall. The number of the previous complaint is: 11210536. In addition to what was previously reported as dangerous/safety related, the vehicle for several minutes after a cold start, although apparently running smoothly, when attempting to accelerate, will not. A turtle could out run the vehicle. It takes over 5 minutes of driving to get a more reasonable acceleration. Again, regardless of a cold start, the vehicle will not accelerate after normal driving, then slowing, and then trying to accelerate. It takes several seconds for the transmission to downshift and for the turbo lag to go away - very dangerous when turning in front of or merging with traffic.

"aem recall" following the aem recall on the Dodge Ram ecodiesel, vehicle experiences dead spots in it acceleration. Pressing the gas pedal, even to the floor, provides no input to the truck for 3-5 seconds. This issue has placed myself and my family in danger in multiple intersections and in merging traffic. Vehicle has also experienced deminished fuel mileage of over 3mpg. Fca specifically states the following: "the aem is not expected to change any of your key vehicle attributes, such as average fuel economy, reliability, durability, vehicle performance, drivability, engine noise or vibration, or other driving characteristics. Click here to read the court approved notice that includes important additional details about the effect of the aem on your vehicle." Almost all of the vehicle characteristics listed are affected in a negative way. In doing so, fca is placing all ecodiesel owners at risk.

After mandated "reprogramming" for the ecodiesel settlement on May 29th, truck does not accelerate from standing start, transmission has failed to engage. Have to turn truck off and restart and hope transmission engages in drive.

After class action settlement of ecodiesel and after aem installed (modification of ECM and tcm for emissions) there is a substantial lag (turbo, transmission) that results in the vehicle not accelerating- like your dead in the water. When pulling into a busy lane of traffic it is extremely dangerous when the vehicle will not accelerate.

I've had a wobble/shimmy in the rear end of the truck from the start. Have aligned, balanced and rotated tires and now new tires. Truck rear end wobbles at speeds above 50 mph. Dodge dealership says no problems with truck and no recalls are available. I see information out on the web of other owners and same problems.

Making the 12 mile trip to work when at mile 10 my truck experienced a decrease in power followed by a shuddering noise when on the throttle. Limped the vehicle off to the shoulder where I noted smoke. Opened the hood to discover a small fire toward the rear of the engine compartment. Tried to extinguish the flames with no luck and with in 5 mins the flames had engulfed the front of the truck.

Was driving down a highway and all the warning lights lit up like a christmas tree on the dash. Then the vehicle started to slow down by itself and then started to take off by itself. As I was slowing down it leaped forward into oncoming traffic when I was trying to turn off the highway. This is the second time this has happened with this vehicle. The first time this happened the dealership couldn't make it repeat so they sent me on my way with no resolution. This time, I got an extreme amount of attitude from the dealership saying I was causing the problems and that I didn't want any help after they mentioned they were going to charge me. I'm surprised they let me have that truck back as dangerous as it is but they certainly did. This thing is like a time-bomb. Just waiting for the next incident and there certainly will be one. They would not let me have the paperwork this last time because I would not sign it.

Have a vibration or shimmy in the right rear tire, wheel or axle. Have put on new tires and rotated/balanced them. Dodge dealership has looked it over and tells me no problem. The 2014S had a shimmy problem. I've read many reviews of others having the same problem at or above 50 mph. Approximate date of occurrence below.

After 3 recalls were performed, including a transmission shifter recall the vehicle now surges and lurches forward when I start it. It is fully in the park position and not moving. I now have to be sure to have my foot firmly on the brake when I start the vehicle. The vehicle is just barely out of the extended warranty at 75, 040 miles.

Exhaust manifold bolts continually shear off from the high heat displacement of the 5.7 V8 hemi engine. Symptoms include a rapid ticking sound during engine startup.

My driveway is on a slight incline and for the 3rd time since purchasing this truck, when I put the truck in park it has rolled backwards. This happened again today and I had to jump in the truck while it is moving and put the brakes on. This has the 8 spd transmission with the rotary knob.

The contact owns a 2015 Ram 1500. While driving 2 mph, with the steering wheel slightly turned right or left, the steering wheel shook. The vehicle was taken to wallace Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram (2755 SE federal hwy, stuart, fl 34994, 772-220-3600) where it was diagnosed that the four wheel drive actuator failed. The vehicle was repaired, but the steering wheel continued to shake. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 46,000. Consumer stated this condition repeated while also in reverse.

This is the second Ram I have ownec with a shift knob on the dash. Both have failed around 60K miles. In both trucks the shift will randomly either go jnto neutral or park while stopped.. has happened to me at red lights. I've had to shift back to park and reset the desired gear. On 3 separate occasions I had cycle the shifter 3 times before it would go into gear causing traffic to back up. I replaced the shifter and cured the problem on both trucks. This is obviously not an isolated incident and should be a safety recall.

Twice with in a period of three weeks the same issue/failure has occured. "service electronic throttle control". both times the issue occured during rush hour traffic, at freewat speeds, while driving on a freeway. Bith occurences resilyed in total loss of acceleration. I was left with limited ability to manuever on the freeway, to the right lanes, as well as limited ability to maneuver and avoid traffic from behind, as well to switch lanes to exit the freeway safely. Once exited he vehicle would only reach a top speed of 39mph. Bith times the dealership reported the issue as an egr valve problem.

When coming to a stop, vehicle fuel shifts in tank forcing vehicle unexpectedly forward under braking. If unprepared for the shift, which only happens under braking when the truck downshifts, the truck will overpower the currently applied brakes taking more time to stop. This can result in a collision with a stopped vehicle or object if the driver does not apply harder braking.

Ecodiesel truck for the past 6 months shuts off randomly while driving, starting from a stop and when idling whenever fuel tank reaches 1/4 full or less. Truck is difficult hard to start when at 1/3 fuel level. On June 28th 2018 after truck shut off on freeway brought it to the dealer and I was told there is nothing wrong and I need to keep the fuel tank greater than quarter tank fuel to prevent the truck from shutting off while driving. This is not a solution and it's very scary to be driving with a large trailer and your truck shuts off on the road.
