The contact owns a 2017 Ram 3500 cargo van. The contact stated that the vehicle's tire pressure monitoring system failed. The tire pressure monitoring indicator remained illuminated and provided an incorrect tire pressure reading. The contact took the vehicle to several independent mechanics to have the tire pressure monitoring system inspected. The mechanics were able to repair the tire pressure monitoring system sensor; however, the repair did not correct the failure. The contact placed new tires on the vehicle and had the tire store check the tire pressure monitoring sensor. The tire store was able to reset the tire pressure monitoring system indicator; however, the repair did not correct the failure. The tire pressure monitoring system indicator illuminated and remained lit. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 30,000. The consumer stated the vehicle goes back to the dealer for repair on 09/25/2019.

The electric fan went out after 1year just over 50,000 miles and it seems it happening on enough vehicles that the fan is on back order. The daytona Dodge dealership misdiagnosed radiator and replaced it, and refused to reimburse after it was checked and found to be good. This might have made installing fan easier. I mentioned this in case it's a on going practice.

From a dead stop or trying to merge in traffic when hitting the accelerator there is a 2 to 3 second hesitation no power at all, then takes off. This is very dangerous afraid this is going to cause an accident. I have noticed a lot of people on the web talking about it, they are calling it a dead pedal. How many people does it take to make this a recall.
