When traveling at low speeds when turning right the power steering feels like it is going to go out. I noticed that there have been recalls on the 2019 Ram 1500 due to power steering problems. I believe there is something wrong with my vehicle and should be included with the other 2019 Ram 1500's that were recalled for power steering failure. I'm voicing my concern because it is probably only a matter of time before I have a major issue with the power steering.

I was driving on I-75 at approximately 73 mph when my instrument panel lights blinked and then turned off. My vehicle lost all power, I turned the steering wheel about 5-10 degrees to the right and my steering wheel locked. I could not press the brake pedal because it was stuck. I was able to get on the side of the highway where vehicle stopped. Hazard lights did not work, I could not unlock doors, start, or stop the car. When the tow truck came, they checked the battery and it had good voltage. The truck was towed to Feldman Ram dealership since 16 June 2022. I am being told that Mechanics are having difficulty figuring out the problem to this day.

- There's a malfunction with the rack and pinion resulting in the steering wheel to get stuck in a position while traveling at highway speeds. When making a lane change or a left bend at speeds above 45mph, the steering wheel is sticking at about 20-30 degrees from the top. This results in jolting to overcorrect the steering and get the steering components unstuck. - The component is available for inspection upon request. - The problem is currently being looked at by the dealer, but I have not sought for them to reproduce the problem. - No official inspection has been performed, yet. - No.

My steering wheel, at high speeds of 60+ mph, would "stick" when turning left, at approximately the 11 to 10 o-clock positions. This stickiness meant the wheel would not return back to center when releasing left turn pressure on its own. It would actually require small amount of force back the other way in which it would "pop" out of the sticky position, causing some very unsafe and scary jerk of the wheels. Both my wife and I experienced it every time the truck was driven on the freeway until we parked the truck due to it being unsafe to drive. I sent the vehicle to the local RAM dealership and they diagnosed it to be an entire "steering rack failure" that would need to be replaced at my cost because the factory warranty time period of 36 months ended, though the mileage period did NOT end as the truck only has 32,000 miles on it. There were no warning lamps or indicators and the truck is 100% stock with no modifications to the wheels, suspension, or drivetrain. The price quoted (not yet the final price) was $4,200.

Driving home from work, as I slowed to turn on to the road that takes me home, I lost power steering, for a brief second I thought I was gonna crash into a on coming vehicle. It then came back and I was able to regain control. The power steering in getting increasingly worse and is happening all the time.there are no service lights displayed, but I am nervous to drive the vehicle. I have taken it to the dealership where the truck was purchased but they have directed me to an actual ram dealership, they said it will be covered under my manufacturer's warranty being that it only has 26,000 miles. This issue is becoming increasingly problematic and stressful since this is the only vehicle I have to drive. I work 1 hour away from home and I am becoming scared to drive it but have no alternative to get to and from work.

- Warsaw, NY, USA

Power steering went out. Night of 4/7 I got a notice on the dash saying service power steering as I parked my truck. Morning of 4/8 I went out to take my truck to the dealership to have it looked at and power steering was completely gone. There is an open recall for the exact year model of my make and model however mine is not listed under the recall. After speaking with a Ram customer care rep they advised I reach out here and make an incident report as this may possibly fall under the recall however it was possibly a mistake made given my vehicle is somehow not covered.

Lost power steering- got it back. Had some warnings lights come up then went away. Power steering went on and off while driving. Dealer working on repair said it-??s not warrantied. $4500 repair.

When turning at low speeds to the right the steering will make a vibration and shake a little. At firts I thought was the abs or traction control acting up but now you can definitely feel the vibration coming from the electric assist.

my power steering doesn't work properly on my 2019 Ram 1500 classic. when i drive it goes in and out of power steering. i see there is a recall for FCA US has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain Electric Power Steering (EPS) gears intended for use on 2013 -?" 2019 Model Year (DS) Ram 1500 pickup trucks. Some EPS gear assemblies may have been built with a contaminated circuit card assembly that may short circuit. A short in the control circuit components may result in an intermittent loss of power steering assist which may cause an inconsistent steering effort, especially during lower speed maneuvers. Inconsistent steering effort can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning but both FCA and Duluth dodge refuse to inspected the vehicle because they say its not part of the recall.... but it was manufactured in 11/18 which falls into the time period

Vehicle makes a noise similar to the antilock braking sound when making right turns. Ram does not have a fix for the issue. The issue is happening more frequently.

On October 27, 2021 I was pulling into a parking lot at extremely low speed and upon turning heard a pop noise and felt a minimal jolt in the steering wheel. Letter in the day as I was leaving I turned right to come home and had the same experience. The next morning same thing at slow speed turning either left or right. Made appointment at dealer for first available date which was November 1, 2021. I received this from the dealer service team: Concern Critical Customer States There-??S A Popping In The Front End Wall Turning Issue TEST DRIVE AND INSPECT FRONT SUSPENSION - PASSENGER FRONT SWAY BAR LINK WORN/SEPARATED DRIVER SIDE ALSO SHOWING SIGNS OF FAILING NEEDS BOTH REPLACED AND ALIGHNMENT Recommendation REPLACE SWAY BAR LINKS AND ALIGNMENT with an almost $1,300 repair bill. I was told this was not covered by my 5 year 60,000 mile warranty and that parts were back ordered and expected not until 11/24/2021. I started researching and located multiple forums that stated this was a known issue. I also spoke to a mechanic that stated this was not normal on a vehicle with under 60,000 miles. I was also told that if it separates it could cause an accident and possibly result in injury or death. My question is why has a recall not been made with this being a known issue. This vehicle I purchased new from this same dealer and had never been off road. I don-??t understand the integrity of the design for a vehicle that is four wheel drive and should be built to perform off-road having this issue with no off road activity ever taking place. Could you please take a look into this since I was made aware that if I didn-??t pay this large amount for the repair it could be a safety issue? Thanks for your review and looking into this matter.

Steering control While driving higher then 40 MPH the steering stick both right and left when going around a bend. This has caused 2 oversteering events with out accidents or injuries. This will be much more dangerous during inclement weather, especially snow. The dealer or service has not been contacted as of yet, nor have the parts been inspected. No working lamps were illuminated. This vehicle is a Certified Preowned that was purchased out of state. The problem was noted during the ride home after picking up then vehicle. Originally I thought it was the tires, it was not.
