			On Sept 22, 2025, the vehicle completely shut off while my son was driving the car to school. The car was in Drive and gave no warning at all. It just shut off in the middle of the road while he was driving appx 25-30mph. He was able to restart the car and get to school safely. When he left school a few hours later and started to drive home, the car shut off again, without warning and while it was in Drive, again appx 25-30 mph. He was able to restart it, and then pulled into the nearest parking lot, and had the car towed to the dealership. On Sept 25, the dealer said they updated the software for "PCM" and "TCM", and replaced the Ignition System Control Module. I picked the car up later that day and began to drive home. About 10 miles into my drive home, the vehicle shut off again, without warning. The car was towed again and now the dealership is telling me they can't find anything wrong with it. This car is going to cause a serious accident and/or a serious injury or death.

			The cabin pressurization system lets dirt flow through the cabin when the vehicle is on dirt roads. My previous vehicle did the same thing, same make and model just different year, 1500 2022 Big Horn. The dirt coming in is enough I have to roll the windows down to flush it out, but it still comes in. I haven't had it looked at on this one yet, but my dealer is very aware of the issue. I believe this to be a breathing health hazard and it needs to be addressed.

			I have owned this vehicle 10 months and for the third time now it is having the same reoccurring electrical issue. The first time the check engine light came on went to the dealer they hooked it up said just a battery drive it you will be fine. They turned the code error off. Left dealership drove to Home Depot and went to leave got in push the start button and the truck started making grinding noises and every error message for every safety device began cycling on the dash. After several minutes it all just stopped and the truck was dead no responses could not unlock or lock doors. Could not shift or do anything. It had to be towed to dealership. After two and a half weeks they said it was repaired some value was stuck open and drained battery and shorted everything out. They replaced valve and batteries. Within two months check engine light came on and vehicle was dead again. This time was able to jumpstart and took it back to dealership. Left it there they had it two weeks and said it was the battery. Claimed could have been faulty battery. Now here it is another two months and check engine light came on, truck wouldn-??t start. Got a jump then every safety system error messages started cycling through again. Immediately had to disconnect both batteries to make it stop. Reconnected drive home to where it is dead as a paperweight. Called dealership and they say bring it in a week and half from now and they will get to it when they can. There is something majorly wrong with this truck. It is unreliable and not safe to drive. 100% lemon that I am stuck with due to negative equity that is growing as time passes. All the forums have people repeating same issues with their trucks as well. A coworker has same truck 1400 miles and his check engine light just came on as well. Please investigate and force them to provide a real solution for this year model truck.

			Automatic door locks fail to lock over 15mph as all other models of Ram trucks. This is a safety issue especially when traveling with minor passengers in the rear as well as front seats. Rear seat passengers unbuckled can open door and fall out and injuries can occur.

			I am describing a potential incident. The tow mirrors are so large on this vehicle that is virtually impossible to determine if cars are coming, especially when making a left turn. They are creating an extreme safety hazard. There are a huge number of people on the internet describing near collisions and paying dealerships huge amounts of money to replace these mirrors.

			My rear park sense turned off, there are trailer light and blind spot warnings happening every few seconds. Just to clarify the truck is not hooked up to anything, also there is a bell ringing every few seconds.

			The engine light goes on and off every other week. I've had the truck in multiple times and I've been told a number of reasons why it's happening, but it's not fixed. Now I am not receiving any paperwork for supposed services done I was told the paperwork will be mailed to me. I'm uncertain if Duluth Dodge is unable or unwilling to solve the problem. At this point, I'm getting lip service, and not getting the issue fixed. I have been in at least 6 times with my new 2025 Dodge Ram.

			On [XXX] I turned on a [XXX] in Amelia Co Va when I pressed the gas to get up to speed, all of the sudden the headlights, dashboard lights, interior lights go dark. Warning lights on the dashboard were flashing. I put on my hazards and pulled safely into a convenience store parking lot and shut my truck off. I waited a few minutes and turned it back on and everything came on along with the check engine light. I got back to Richmond safely and checked to see the code was for the check engine light which was a P0336. On [XXX] I went back to check the code and it was stored and the check engine light was off. On my way back home I was on [XXX] just north of Lexington VA and went to pass a slower car and the same thing happen. I was able to pull off to the right side shoulder and I turned the truck off and waited a few and turned it back on. Check engine light was on. I drove it to Roanoke and stop to get gas and check the code for the check engine light which U1401. After filling up the check engine light went off. I took it to Shelor Motor Mile on Monday 11-04-2024. They put their diagnostic tool on it and it spit out 24 different codes. They had a backlog of appointments and could not even start to address the issue for 2 weeks. I took it to the dealership that I bought it from on Monday 11-11-2024. Nobody can tell me why or what happen. One time I understand it might have been a glitch a second time it happens I consider it a safety issue that needs to be addressed. I cannot get the factory engineers to help find out whats going on with the truck. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

			Check engine has come on twice at 235 miles and 250 miles on the vehicle. Codes are reading for a misfire. Dealership reached out to Chrysler about the issue, as they were not able to correct it, and were told it's a software update that has not been created yet. My vehicle will have a random check engine light (either solid or flashing), lose power, stall and even completely cut off or not turn back on. This happens whether I'm driving or in park.

			Vehicle Owner's Manual not available in vehicle without internet connection. This is an attempt to prevent an accident causing injury or vehicle damage when I am operating my truck. A specific example is to review the instructions to engage the low range 4x4 function without damaging the truck or myself. Beginning with the 2025 model, RAM changed it's policy of providing one paper copy of the RAM 1500 Owner's Manual to the original owner upon request. As of today, a paper copy of the 2025 RAM 1500 Owner's Manual from RAM is unattainable. It is only available in an electronic format, and to people with computers and or smartphones with active internet access. RAM does not provide access to an Owner's Manual for their 2025 RAM 1500 to anyone who doesn't have a computer or smartphone. To access the Owner's Manual in my truck, I must download the RAM app on my Smartphone and maintain a good internet connection -- the RAM app will not open without a good internet connection. The other problem with this is that I am now required by RAM to always own a smart phone and purchase an internet service to view my Owner's Manual. I have owned the truck for less than three months with less that 1,000 miles, I have been unable to access my truck's operating instructions from the Owner's Manual at least three times. I have been in contact with RAM at least 4 times requesting a paper copy of the Owner's Manual, and been told they will not provide one. The solution to this problem is to return to their original policy of providing a paper copy upon request, OR add a PDF reading capability in the truck's onboard computer and load the manual into the onboard computer. Any assistance will be appreciated.
