While driving at 25mph in 4H, I heard what sounded like television static instead of the music I'd been playing with Carplay. Moments later my dashboard indicators flashed wildly and randomly. Within a few seconds, smoke was billowing out of the hood and fire was visible in the engine bay. The entire vehicle eventually burned down.

I was notified of the Particulate Matter (PM) Sensor not being installed in the exhaust aftertreatment system of my vehicle on a post delivery survey I received. The dealership's service department has no idea about this sensor not being installed by the factory, and the response from the letter stated there would be a recall soon to have the PM sensor installed, but that has not happened over a year later. The ECU will need an update once the sensor is installed, which would allow the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) gauge to function. This poses a risk to unknown regeneration occurrences, which could lead to a fire if the vehicle is parked next to dry grass or other flammable material. It also poses a significant risk for exhaust system emissions component failure in the future. The sensors and software update need to be completed as soon as possible.

Brand new Ram 2500 Diesel caught fire after about 1100 miles. Best I can tell it started around the alternator. Made a low -€œwhirring-€ or -€œhumming-€ noise during a few short drives just prior to the event that had not happened before. I was just parking when I noticed smoke coming from under the hood and opened it up to find a small fire involving the alternator and extinguished it with a fire extinguisher. The fire department came out and ensured it was extinguished and then a fire investigator came out and conducted an investigation. Took three days to get the dealership to accept the truck being towed back so it can be investigated by manufacturer.

I recently purchased a 2022 Ram 2500 equipped with the u-connect 5 system and the 12 inch display screen. The 12 inch screen controls all radio, navigation, phone and climate functions. After driving the truck for an extended period of time, the 12 inch screen will lock up and all functions are lost. I was told by the dealer to "reset" the display by pressing the volume and tuning buttons simultaneously, and after that to do a "hard reset" through the radio controls. This does correct the problem, but it will eventually lock up again. The dealer advised me they must be able to recreate the problem to diagnose it. They also advised due to the extended drive time for the problem to occur, they would probably not be able to recreate the situation. I have contacted Ram and u-connect about the issue, and they too advise the dealer must be able to recreate the problem to fix it. They also indicated they have never had anyone else complain about the screen locking up. When I google this issue I have found numerous articles online posted by people experiencing the same issue, so I know I am not alone. My reason for contacting NHTSA is the loss of the climate controls, specifically the windshield defroster, when the radio screen is locked up. Many times in my life I have found the need to very quickly activate the front windshield defroster to maintain visibility. I am concerned if the screen is locked up, and the defroster cannot be activated, a crash may occur.

The manufacturer has failed to remedy the situation in a timely manner. As shown in this complaint forum, the recall was issued March 10. I did not take delivery until March 24 with no mention of the recall. I received the notice in the mail on April 4. The dealer says April 14 before I can get in for a 10 minute software update! So, now it's my problem! I can sit and stare at my new $75,000 truck, or I can choose to drive an unsafe vehicle. No choice when it comes time for the update, I have a 200 mile, one way drive to get to the dealer. The manufacturer and the dealer were well aware of this problem BEFORE they took my money and sent me down the road in an unsafe vehicle. I think that is criminal. Everyone is treating this as a software "glitch". For me it comes after 2 years of swapping paper with FCA in order to settle on an Eco Diesel. Remember the Eco Diesel? Makes one wonder if it's a glitch or standard business practice at FCA.

After winter snow 3 inches when electric deployed running boards were deployed to enter vehicle when stepping on to the running board ir was found to be covered is black ice. This caused loss of traction and slipping. No injuries occurred but were very likely if not for some luck. The current design allows for melting snow to drip down rhe doors and freeze on the running boards that are recessed under the truck.
