Truck was smoking under hood so pulled over to side of road and truck was on fire under the hood. Truck was completely burned. Found a recall on your website #P65.

There have been a couple times where I pulled out into traffic and got the famous "dead pedal" that Dodge has programmed into this vehicle. There is too much torque mgmt. Or something and there are many cases, where you expect the vehicle to take off and it will sit there for 2-3 seconds before moving, therefore putting you into a dangerous position. We need this fixed before someone is killed. In the forums, there are many, many that have the same issue with the same vehicles - 2013-2014 vehicles with cummins 6.7L diesel.

My 2013 Dodge diesel consumes 1 gallon of def (diesel exhaust fluid ) every 85 miles while towing. The national average is about 1000mpg. It is using 10 times the average. It is very costly and dirty to fill the def tank. I'm adding to the environment multiple plastic 2 1/2 gallon jugs and the box they come in. The factory has no fix as of yet, the dealer has been good with all the repairs except this. They are held back by the factory with a lack of information, I'm told. I have no idea what this is doing to my truck/engine or the environment it is supposed to help.

The truck has what I describe as a "dead pedal". I was merging into traffic and let off the throttle in an evasive maneuver, but realized I need to accelerate quickly to avoid being hit. I pushed to accelerator to the floor, and there was a 2-3 second delay before the engine began accelerating. I avoided being hit only due to evasive steering. This situation is very dangerous. I have verified this condition in a controlled situation, and can replicate the problem each and every time.
