02/05/19: Brake recall (* source: www.mopar.com) 'an adjustable brake pedal assembly that allows the brake pedal adjustment to over travel could cause the brake pedal to become separated from the pedal assembly. If the brake pedal separates from the adjustable pedal assembly, the driver may be unable to use the brake pedal to apply the service brakes, which can cause vehicle crash without prior warning.' I've called three local dealerships and all have expressed that there are no parts available at this time from fca as of today (02/23/19). This doesn't seem acceptable as this recall was issued nearly three weeks ago.

Since purchasing new, my 2019 Ram 1500 (new body) has been pulling to the right when braking on the highway. Its not the crown of the road since the same model loaner truck did not pull. I have driven it for 5600 miles and it pulls to the right when braking on the highway. Dealers and fca are not willing to help duplicate or diagnose. They believe there is no problem. I am concerned that this vehicle my not be safe and operating as designed

A noticeable high pitched sound of the brake being worn down was coming from the front brakes. New brake pads were installed incorrectly or were manufactured incorrectly. Caused front brake pads to wear down under 2000 miles. Dealership installed new front pads had and filed the routers. Unclear as to why this happened.

  • 20,000 miles
The breaking part of the collision avoidance system flashes a warning to break in and alarm goes off typically when I am crossing a bridge. While trying to merge on the interstate, the braking system applied the brakes unexpectedly and brought the vehicle to a complete stop on the interstate. There were no obstacles are cars anywhere around the front of the vehicle and there was nothing to avoid when the vehicle unexpectedly applied the brakes. A cyma almost rear ended me because there was nothing I could do. The problem has been reported to the dealer and the vehicle has spent 4 days in the shop with no solution are no apparent cause.

I purchased the truck on 10/4/2019. On 10/6/2019 was delivered to my house. After going over the features the sales representative left. I tried backing the truck out of the drive way the truck would not back up because of the brake sensor system. The buttons to control the functions on the steering wheel did not work as well. I took the car to the dealership that same day. It's been siting there unrepaiired. The deal ship says they are unsure of the problem and have opened a ' star case' with Dodge manufacture. I have called everyday asking for updates they say they don't have any news or updates.
