Recall NHTSA # 19V-818 cooling fan module can fail causing vehicle fire. Recall NHTSA # 20V-036 shifter cable. Unintended vehicle movement which can cause a crash. Dealer and Dodge are not willing to correct the above. I am concerned about safe operation of my vehicle

Had the van serviced per the recall for the engine cooling fan issue. Took to the dealership I purchased from. After driving away from the dealership and getting about 50 miles down the road the service engine light came on. I could never get ahold of the dealership again. Don jackson in atlanta. They would never return calls. I took to another dealership and they say it's the engine cooling fan relay is shot. I did not have this problem before.

Recall numbers W00 and VB2 from fca have not been repaired in a timely manner. The recall listed VB2 is of particular concern as "a vehicle fire may increase the risk of injury to occupants and persons outside the vehicle, as well as property damage". I have contacted fca and the dealership numerous times and they have not yet given me notice as to when the car may be fixed. Additionally they are not offering me rental car so I can safely drive as I feel unsafe driving this vehicle. In California the lemon laws can be used after 2 instances of repairs, this will be the 3rd repair needed for this vehicle. I have tried to be patient but as you can see its been over 5 months since the first recall and 2 months since the second recall. I am currently driving the car as needed to grocery shop and never going out of town as the risk of break down or fire, especially for the A/C cooling unit, is too great especially with the summer months here in California already started.

The contact owns a 2017 Ram Promaster van. While driving down a large hill, the brake light illuminated for no apparent reason. An unknown dealer and the manufacturer were made aware of the failure, but there was no remedy. The only way to turn off the light was by turning off and restarting the vehicle. The vehicle was a converted 2017 Ram 355 cargo van by winnebago. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 5,000 and has continued to be a problem.

Cooling fan 3 bearing failed 1 year after purchase, P0482 P0696 cel came on, no tsb's no recalls, no information on wiring diagrams available. Replaced fans with new fans and all relays and shroud and sensors, not under warranty, now fans don't work at all, cel still on 696 and 482 even after reset. Countless google search results with same problem. Feels like this should be a recall.
