I would like to thank Ram with the awesome troubleshooting skills you have provided me with my parking sensors in my 2016 Ram. After 6 trips to the dealership replaced almost all the sensors and the control module. Your answer is to turn off your sensors when it's not sunny and dry out because rain!!!! can affect an outdoor sensor. So anytime it rains I need to turn my sensors off and turn them back on when its dry. Now explain to me why I would want to buy a Fiat/Chrysler product.

The original problem happened earlier in January of 2019. I opened my vehicle and upon starting it, I began to put my seat belt on I noticed the tension on the belt was non existent. In fact I had to "help" the belt back down into the pulley. It has not worked since. Shortly afterwards my air bag light came on on my dash. I have received multiple factory recall postcards in the mail at my new house listing my VIN/vehicle as well as issues with the seat belt and air bag system. Upon receiving these postcards, I followed the instructions as it stated on the card and called two local Ram service centers: Brunswick auto mart 3031 center rd, brunswick, oh 44212 (330) 460-0721 (authorized Ram service center) and spitzer Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram cleveland 13001 brookpark rd, brook park, oh 44142 (216) 267-2100. The brunswick service center refused to acknowledge the recalls as they pertain to my vehicle and told me that I would be charged. The brook park service center told me that my VIN was not coming up in their system. I still receive the vehicle recall postcards from Fiat-Chrysler-Dodge-Ram however my local service centers refuse to fix the issues because I didnt purchase from them. I originally purchased this vehicle out of state. I have also has problems with my turn signal lamp consistently going out. I purchased the vehicle with less than 15,000 miles on it. It now has a little over 30,000 miles.

28 degrees F this morning. I started truck and let it warm up for 5 min. Disengaged the parking brake, put it in drive. As I started to move (3) error messages came up on dash: Service shifter, service transmission, service throttle control. I stopped truck, turned it off and then started it again. No error codes; engine warning light on. I drove to work 2.5 miles away. I had to stop at a traffic light and engine just turned off. Dash board was flickering. I put truck in park, turned key off and then tried to restart truck. Nothing, lights still flickering on dash. I tried to put on hazard lights but no power to them. I tried multiple times to restart truck but to no avail. At some point it wouldn't even let me turn the key to off. It was stuck in the "accessory" position. I did catch an error message on the dashboard that said "no bus". if I was moving when truck shut down I would have gotten into an accident; no power brakes or steering. After about 5 minutes sitting at traffic light, the dashboard lights stopped flickering and the truck appeared to reset itself. At this point I was able to start the truck and get to work. The truck has been in four times for "service shifter" error. On three of the visits the dealer loaded new software into the truck to address this and a few recalls. The last visit (3) weeks ago the software was changed so if the truck is not in park, the driver's door is open, truck is in gear, and the driver's foot is not pressing on the brake pedal the computer will put truck in park they also replaced the rotary shifter switch. Since that time the service transmission, service shifter and service throttle control error started and has appeared three times. 2016 Ram express 1500 was bought new in July 2017 and has 15,400 miles on it. I have no confidence in this vehicle as it will leave me stranded at some point.

The key can be used to get the switch to the position to start the truck.this situation does not happen all of the time. The dealership said that they could not duplicate the problem..

Error code P0463 - fuel level sending unit failure. Seems to happen to everyone right out of warranty... 40K miles, under 3 years old. Was driving on the highway when warning lights and the audible notification started going off. Low fuel warnings lit up too. Fuel level sending unit high voltage failure is the eventual message on the dashboard. It throws one off when that happens, took me a minute to realize that I didn't in fact have a fuel leak and did in fact have plenty of gas.

My wife, dog and I pulled into a parking lot of a countertop supply store. It was approximately 80 degrease outside so I rolled down the windows to half and left the truck running in park to keep the A/C on for the dog. In this parking lot we were the only vehicle parked near by and there was no parking block in front of the truck. We were in the store approximately 20 min looking for a countertop then went to sit down with the sales specialist. About 5 min into that conversation the secretary in the front yelled "your truck is driving off". I immediately ran out the door to find my truck about 25 yards away and across the main road. The road did not have curbs but did have steep culverts on both sides (note: I would not think a truck at idle would make it up to the road) the truck "took off" per 3 workers that were near by in the lot moving a large slab of granite, and a simi driver was driving on the road stating that both my Ram and his tractor hit tires and that's what got my truck to stop. Everyone that witnessed this stated the dog was in the back seat and no one got out of the vehicle. As I approached the truck it sounded to be running at idle and when I grabbed the door handle the locks unlocked as normal. I found the truck in drive and RPM at normal idle range. The truck allowed me to put it back in park. I then restarted the truck, moved it back to the parking lot. The business has security camera footage of this showing how my truck un tampered with went from idle and park for 25ish min to driving across the road and I am currently perusing a copy of the tape. Dealer was contacted and I was told to make an appointment late next week (earliest available) for an inspection, and until then to set the parking brake every time. Truck appears to be driving as normal. The store was around 15 miles away, truck was parked all night leading up to event.

I keep having problems with the electrical system in the truck. The plugin areas for electronic devices in the rear passenger keeps burning out fuses. I am also having issues with my cruise control button on the steering wheel acting like it has a short turning itself on and off. This happens when I am driving the vehicle or in the drive way as well.

I have a 2016 Ram ecodiesel fully loaded limited 1500 and I have had nothing but problems with it this past year. I have gone to three different dealerships and none of them can fix the vehicle it only has 40K miles on it and is in perfect condition other than now it is overheating and the fan is on constantly. I believe maybe there is a leak in the coolant line" I don't know, the service departments have been useless, I have been to the dealerships with the problem about 10 times. What do I do? it was a very expensive vehicle and I don't think I should have to be going through this. How do I get Ram to respond? who do I contact to file a complaint with them"
