While steering left, the steering wheel gets hung up, and does return to center without forcing it back to center.

- Gilbert, SC, USA

While making a slight left turn about 10 to 11 O clock steering wheel is locking up and have to force the wheel to center. Very dangerous in the rain and I could only imagine what would happen in the winter time. I notice it more getting on the on ramp or back country roads with a speed range from 20 to 45 mph. The dealer crown Dodge in greensboro nc says that I need to do a 4 wheel alignment to make sure right and that I have to pay for because its not covered under warranty. Truck has 12160 miles. Code in the system for steering angle sensor. This is unsafe and my truck has been sitting at the dealership for weeks now with no final repair.

Steering wheel will stick and not return to center when turning left or veering left at highway speeds and when entering on ramps to highways. This can be a serious safety issue as it takes excessive force to bring the wheel back to center, which could lead to overcompensation and eventually wrecking.

I'm having an issue with the steering on my new 2019 Ram 1500 new body laramie longhorn. I now have 10,000 miles on the vehicle. I noticed this when I first obtained delivery. Most of my driving has been on rather straight roads with a few curves. I'm in Colorado on the East side of the mountains. This week we took a trip up into the mountains. Took some paved back roads and off the interstate driving. Drove about 12 hours. When turning the wheel to the right for a curve in the road, the steering wheel centers correctly, as all vehicles would that are aligned properly. However, a left hand curve at just about any speed, has a catch in it. It will want to continue turning left even after I'm out of the curve. It's as if there's a high spot in a round gear or a tight cog in a gear. I have to put pressure on the wheel to pull it back. I've had the alignment checked. I mentioned something to the dealer after first noticing it, and he suggested the button that will pull back the wheel when the truck wanders out of the lane. But, it will do that when it's in function or when I disable it. The steering, I've been told, is not mechanical but electronic. I know nothing about that type of steering. I've driven trucks all my life, having a class 1 license years ago. 18 wheelers, etc.. I'm 75. Never had this issue with any vehicle. Any advice? I have an appointment with the dealer service department in about 10 days to take it in for a look see. This is dangerous.. my wife could not drive this vehicle. It would freak her out having to pull the steering back out of oncoming traffic.

After traveling at highway speeds, approximately 70 mph, for 10 to 20 minutes the steering will stick at around the 1100 to 1000 O'clock position during left hand turns on interstates. If left alone the steering will not realign at the 12 O'clock position and vehicle will continue to veer left. You must manually steer right past a noticeable detent in the steering path to return the wheel to correct position. The longer you drive the more noticeable the sticking becomes and more force is required to bring the wheel back to center. As the force requirement increases the increase of overcorrections occurs. This is quickly becoming very dangerous. Of note is the fact this will not occur below highway speeds even after traveling at highway speeds for 20 minutes. Once you go below 60 the malfunction will not duplicate. This vehicle has had all required recall repairs for ground cable prior to purchase. Maintenance appointment with dealer is set within the week.

While my 2019 Ram 1500 is in motion, it has a pull / drift to the right. The pull / drift to the right occurs when lightly holding the steering wheel or momentarily letting go of the steering wheel. The pull / drift to the right occurs on all types of road surfaces. The grade of the road does impact the pull / drift as it is exaggerated with a steeper rightward grade, however it will drive straight if the road has a slight leftward grade. With a mild rightward grade, I have to put a little leftward pressure on the steering wheel to keep it from veering right. This occurs at speeds of 10 to 80mph on city streets and highways. If the driver gets distracted for a moment, the vehicle will unintentionally change lanes or pull the vehicle off the road. I have had it serviced and the alignment checked 4 times at corwin Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in fargo, nd and they tell me the alignment is within spec and there is nothing else they can do. Tire pressure is equal in all four tires. The service manager states a rightward pull is characteristic of new vehicles. I do not believe my vehicle, nor any anyone else's, should be pulling to the right and potentially causing a motor vehicle crash. The truck should drive straight with the exception of outside influences such as steep road grades, high cross winds, etc.

When driving for about one hour when turning to the left the steering sticks and I have to manually bring it to center. It will not return to center unless I turn it to the right. Its entertainment and ive had it into the dealership meny times. This is very dangerous and may lose control by overcompensating for it. I have had all the updates and recalls performed on the truck but nothing has resolved the problem. Doge needs to address this issues asap.

While steering left and right, the power steering seems to intermittently go out, it happens off and on, and you have to hold on tightly to the steering wheel or you will loose control, I took it to the dealer and they tell me it is normal for this truck which I strongly disagreed with them, a new truck or any new car does not just loose steering

When turning the steering wheel back to the center from the left, there seems to be a catch and it resists turning. It seems to match other recalls out there, but my VIN was not included in any of the current, documented recalls.

- Mount Hope, KS, USA

Purchased truck in Dec 2018. About a month in around 2000 miles started experiencing the steering wheel sticking around the 11:00 position at highway speeds. I drive 1500 to 2000 miles a month and afraid I am going to overcorrect especially in heavy traffic. Spoke with dealership and they do not have a solution for the problem. Had the recall taken care of on the battery cable and this did not correct the issue either. Feels like a problem in the steering linkage. I have also started noticing which feels like the truck is starting to float side to side and am having to correct to keep it in the lane. This truck does not have lane assist on it so that could not be the problem.
