The vehicle will slam on the breaks if I am backing into a parking spot with any sort of vegetation. This happens way before I am anywhere close to being completely in the space. This could easily cause an accident and I have come very close multiple times. I have had to shut it off and the feature is unusable.

Vehicle stalls randomly while driving and automatically applies the emergency brake. Stalling randomly and applying the emergency brake in the street/highway with traffic is dangerous and unsafe. This is our primary vehicle and the dealership has been unable to recreate the stalling. The vehicle has been to the dealership twice for the stalling but the problem is still unresolved. The stalling started randomly in March-April 2022. The dealership was notified and vehicle taken in for multiple services. Problem still not solved.

While trying to leave for work I-??ve had multiple days of a hard start or no start issue. The vehicle will attempt to start and either run rough for 2 mins while it catches up or will just shut off and not start again for a few minutes. The blower motor inside the car seems to be not functioning properly, while driving it will increase speed and then slow down, and it will do this for the length of the ride.

Truck was previously, in the Dodge Ram Dealership, in Glendale, on Brand Blvd. Within 7 days of having my truck "repaired" for SUDDEN AND ABRUPT STOP IN TRAFFIC - Check Engine Light, heater going on by itself, radio-bluetooth connection issues -it was returned with "new computer hardware" and days later June 8th leaving for work not far from my house my truck - ABRUPTY STOPPED WHILE DRIVENG IN TRAFFIC AGAIN! My "case" with customer Care has been REOPENED and my truck is still at the same dealer in service! I was told that a Dodge Durango had the same issue, and it would be looked into by the RAM engineers - The truck has now stopped in traffic twice in a matter of 7 days! I am more than concerned but FEARFUL for my safety and those that ried with me! I do mostly Freeway driving and I am TERRIFED it will STALL AND STOP on me while on the FREEWAY! PLEASE ADVISE!

First Incident was power train failure while attempting to accelerate to merge into expressway traffic the vehicle suddenly revved to high RPMs and wouldn't gain speed acting like the transmission wouldn't shift out of first gear. Had to pull to the shoulder and turn off the vehicle and restart before it functioned properly. With in half an hour received an email the said I'd experienced powertrain failure. I then noticed the service engine soon light on. by the time I got to the dealer the light went out and they refused to look at the vehicle. 10 days later I started seeing warning show up on the display both in the consul and on the Uconnect system. indicating tire pressure and airbag issues. This is the second Vehicle purchase from the same manufacturer and same sale dealership to run such issues.

When accelerating from a stop the vehicle hesitates and takes off very slow which could cause an accident. I-??m not the only one that has complained about this defect a lot of people with the eco-diesel are having the same problem and it could cause an accident.

4 issues. #1 stereo screen says over heating shutting down #2 radio screen turns blue says screen overheating shutting down. Serius radio keeps removing from radio. #3 when braking the car will thrust forward as in a push, pushing you hard into the car stopped ahead of you. The harder the braking the harder the thrust/push. (this is a mager safety concern) its not if you get into a accident it is when. There is a problem with the 2022 Ram 1500 braking(either transmission or power train) but it is bad I almost got into several rear end collisions due to the Dodge thrust when braking. I spoke to someone else that actually works at the Dodge dealership and owns a 2022 Dodge ream and he stated his Dodge Ram has the same issue with the forceful thrust when breaking. This is a major safety issue. #4 electrical.

I was pulling our from a stop sign to make a left turn when all of a sudden the engine shut down, emergency brake engaged and all engine power was lost. I would have been struck by cross traffic had there been any as I did not have the ability to maneuver the vehicle. The vehicle was able to be restarted and disengage the emergency brake but the engine light remains on.
