Electrical system failed. A new battery was installed 1 month ago and on 10/28/23, I went to start the truck and it hesitated but started up then I lost power and it would not start again. I had it jumped and the service auto start/stop light, check engine and battery light came on. I pulled out from work and the engine hesitated. After proceeding over an overpass, I went to make a left hand turn onto the highway and a message came up indicating the power steering system had failed, the emergency brake came on and I again experienced a loss of power. I was able to get it to the side of the road on the on ramp where it shut down completely and had to be towed. Due to the loss of power steering, I was almost hit by an oncoming vehicle headed in the opposite direction. The engine also hesitated after starting, the RPM's were spiking to 4K every few seconds and it was producing a clicking sound before my initial departure. The vehicle was towed to Moyer Ram in Lebanon, PA pending an evaluation. In the past, this vehicle was in the shop 4 times for almost getting me in an accident as the vehicle would lose speed and the RPM's would spike and slow the vehicle down to less than 30 miles per hour. This happened several times and despite a dispute pursuant to the lemon laws and multiple videos showing what was happening, they ruled against replacing the vehicle. At one point on a local interstate, while traveling over 65mph's, it was like it slipped into neutral, I lost speed rapidly and was almost rear ended by a tractor trailer. I still have that problem 1-2 times/month but they will do nothing about it and the mechanic couldn't replicate the problem while the dealer had it. Bottom line is I do not feel safe in this vehicle and it's an accident waiting to happen.

Dash instrument cluster digital screen malfunction. While driving the other day I noted a lag with the digital screen in the instrument cluster. Thought nothing of it at first attempted to see if fuse was bad or if it needed to be updated. Nothing was found. Today while on my drive into work I have noticed the screen is getting worse, lag is increasing and now the brightness of the screen is low. Attempted to adjust brightness with knob and nothing. I am afraid that if the digital screen the displays any warning lights, mileage, fuel level, and safety devices goes out. I will not be able to correct/remedy the problem. Which could result in a possible fire or crash due to a system failure.

The contact owns a 2019 Ram 1500. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the steering wheel locked up. The instrument panel also turned off inadvertently. The vehicle became unresponsive, causing the contact to drive off road. The contact was able to get the vehicle started after removing and replacing. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer to be diagnosed; however, the mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 400.

I have had my issue for years. When ever I put the gear on Reverse, the image produced from the camera on the door liftgate latch tailgate handle on the screen flickers. So I don't get a solid feed at times. This caused me to back up into a poll in a parking lot. As a result, my rear bumper got a dent from the impact. Years earlier I had taken my truck over to the dodge service department at my local dealership where they did some type of reset to try to fix that issue but that did not fix it. I continued having that issue and to make things worse, it turns out that the service department has no record of my truck going in for that. I've fought over this with the service department but they don't want to take ownership of my problem. So now my rear bumper has a dent as a result from the flickering.

Good morning, I am the proud owner of a 2019 Dodge Ram 1500 Hybrid, which is one of 4 I have owned over the majority of decade. While I obviously have put my trust in Ram for a really long time, that trust has been being betrayed since I have owned this one. In the last 6-months alone, my Ram has been down awaiting one spare part or another. Parts that Ram recognized as a problem shortly after the 2019 Hybrid 1500 was released and made several mid-model-year engineering changes, but never issued a recall, and because those replacement parts like the New Alternator Harness, are only just now being released with most having a 6-12 week lead time. The Alternator Harness being one of the parts that my Ram has been waiting on now for more than a month. That said, if that had of been the only problem, there-??s a strong probability that I wouldn-??t have mentioned it! With this being the 3rd time in 2023 and another on late 2022, and not having the new (used) Ram I just bought and pay $850 a month for (not including insurance), and it with it seeming to be more of a systemic issue, with literally thousands of people dealing with similar issues on their 2019 and it-??s something that needs to be addressed, as even if it wasn-??t thousands, but only hundreds, or even 1-person having these issues, if Ram saw these as significant enough issues, that they felt it necessary to re-engineer them, then Ram-??s customers shouldn-??t be stuck paying out their hard earned money, for vehicle that should have never been released with the original parts design. In the instance with my 2019 Ram, having it be out of commission for almost have 2023 is hard yo chew! Especially when it has less than 50,000-miles, with only roughly 10,000 coming since I bought it in October 2021. When you add the fact that Ram redesigned the number of parts they did, then never did a recall, but still force the Customers to pay for those parts! My Ram has been down for almost 6-months just this year

The instrument cluster will no longer light up allowing safety information to be seen. There was a recall (V83 or 19V556000) issued to a very small select number of vehicles. It appears that this is a known/common problem and the limited recall was issued intentionally to avoid fixing all affected vehicles. Information such as tire pressure, digital speedometer, CURRENT MILEAGE, and other important safety information is not visible.

4WD electrical issue. Ram knows it-??s a computer issue, but bandaids it every time until it happens again. Basically, the internal computer thinks it can-??t use 4WD and only lets you use 2WD.

Trucks guage cluster LCD display information center located behind the steering wheel, does not illuminate, and or work at all anymore. I cannot see warnings, issues with the truck, cautions, information, mileage, use the safety systems included with the truck, use automatic park assist, and know if the air bag system is functioning correctly. Anything that the screen is required for cannot be used, safety systems included. I cannot monitor vehicle temperatures, vehicle hours, or trip miles.. The analog guages work, but that is all. This is a huge safety issue and this should not be an issue. Current mileage is 57,589. The vehicle has been inspected by a certified ram dealer and they have told me I must replace the cluster since i am out of warrenty. The issue the ram dealer recognized as 'cluster internally failed' and must be completely replaced since the cluster is one unit, and the electronics are internal. There has been an individual recall issued for ONLY ONE 5th Generation 2019 Ram Limitied in regaurds to the cluster failure back in 2019. Ram cares says I am not covered. Why mine is not covered does not make sense to me. This is absolutely a safety concern, this is absolutely a danger not having access to any safety systems or information about the vehicle/truck, tire pressure, engine and trans temp, and everything mentioned above.

Vehicle would not shift out of first gear. Turned off vehicle and turned back on, still would not shift out of first gear. Our safety was at risk because we could not drive the minimum speed limit. We have not been able to get into a mechanic yet, we pulled it over at a shop nearby and they are booked out so we are waiting inspection and without our vehicle, but wanted to report the issue as we have seen online that many people have had the exact same issue and they also report that it is hard to replicate, that it is random when this issue occurs. Police witnessed our inability to drive fast. Based off of how many people I have seen have complained about this issue online I would hope a recall would be made as this is clearly a malfunction of this vehicle and a safety issue. The vehicle is undriveable and we do regular maintenance checks for this vehicle. This issue just came out of the blue. There was a light that came on at the time of the issue that said "service trailer break" and "service electrical stability control", we have not tried to turn it on since we had to leave it at the shop.

Vehicle after driving and shutting off, fails to start. Only having an audible click noise. Truck required to be towed to home. Battery provided sufficient voltage and shows to have continuity from starter relay to solenoid. Disconnected the negative battery connector overnight. After sitting unplugged from battery overnight and reconnecting in morning, the truck started 1st attempt, however now has several codes popping up P1DF3, P2111, P2017 and U0402. (There were no prior issues: as truck would start and drive with no delay and no service engine lights.) After the 3rd attempt to start the truck after previously having the negative cable disconnected, it failed to start and would only have the audible click sound. Vehicle milage is less than 36,000. This is a risk to consumers as the faulty start may leave a party in unsafe environment, or cause financial burden risk due to a required need to tow the vehicle, or may cause damage to components for continued attempts to start the vehicle. In researching this have seen multiple forums that disconnected this to be a large issue for the Dodge Ram, this should be required to be a Recall to fix the ESM/TCM that is causing this issue.

Defective shifter. Vehicle is automatically shifting in Park while in drive causing vehicle to stop moving while driving, in traffic or at a stop light. Vehicle accelerated and cut off in the middle of an intersection and almost got rear ended because vehicle would not move. When shifting to drive again it immediately switched to park stranded me in the middle of on coming traffic. This is horrific especially if it would happen on an interstate. This happened also at a gas station putting the truck in reverse backed a little bit than automatically shifted to park stranding me in the middle of the parking lot. I had to turn off the truck and start it to shift back in gear. The truck shifted by it self multiple times. This safety issue could be detrimental. I was scared to continue driving my truck. Turning in front of someone had me nervous because when I tried to accelerate the truck shifted in to park and stopped moving multiple times. Reaching the internet to find out why. I found multiple people had the same issues. This need to be fixed before it cost the life of someone

The Motor Generator Unit stopped charging the battery, which in turn made my battery die. This can be inspected. I was put at risk due to being broke down out of town on the side of a main street. The vehicle was inspected by a local mechanic shop as a Ram dealership was not within their city limits. They were the only ones to inspect it. Prior to the battery completely dying, my check engine light and low battery light came on within 10 seconds of each other. My battery died within 15 to 20 minutes of that happening.
