problem #4

Dec 172018

1500

  • 800 miles
The truck has been self accelerating and causing me to slam on breaks to avoid accidents. It was first happening on the highway and it went 50-70mph by itself. Then it happened today on the city street and almost caused an accident. It was claimed to be a sensor problem, but it happened again today and I barely made it to the Dodge dealership. The car has multiple warning lights come on and then will self accelerate and only allow you to brake. Sometimes it floors it from a stop and other times it barely moves but self acceleration should not be happening and its a major concern. VIN is not available consumer stated vehicle considered for lemon law and dealer and consumer working on getting a new vehicle.

1500 8-cyl

  • 4,600 miles
Without warning while driving, the vehicle engine quits and looses all power. Power steering is lost and all power is lost. This has happened twice on my truck that has less than 5,000 miles on it. When the incident happened the first time the local Dodge dealership replaced a relay switch. I believe the issue is related to a faulty electrical system as I also have issues with the power mirrors not functioning properly. It is extremely unsafe to be driving this truck with my children and family not knowing when and where this will happen again. The vehicle is currently at my local Dodge dealership.

/purchased new 2019 Ram 1500 limited. Took delivery 08/30/2018 and dint get off the lot due to vehicle accelerating on its own and then multiple safety lights came on. Service then attempted to repair by replacing throttle pedal assembly due to throttle voltage code. Picked up truck 09/06/2018 and while driving 09/07/2018 just over 24 hrs later truck then started accelerating on its own in rush hour traffic nearly causing severe accident. Multiple dash lights on with warnings and check engine light. Pulled to side of road placed in park then back in drive still wanted to accelerate on own. Turned vehicle off then restarted check light still on but no longer wanting to accelerate on own. Returned vehicle to dealer unable to do anything about issue. Less than 200 miles on new truck..... fca's arbitrator has denied consumers lemon law claim.
