MY 2003 RAM 1500 HAS HAD INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS SINCE 2004 WHICH OF COURSE DEALER CAN'T REPLICATE. THROUGH RESEARCH FROM MY TERRIBLE GAS MILEAGE OF AT TIMES 9MPG TO THE ENGINE STALING AND DYING AND LOSS OF POWER TO A POINT THERE ISN'T ENOUGH POWER TO PULL OUT OF ITS ONW TRACKS, I FINALLY FOUND THE POWER DISTRIBUTION CENTER (PDC) AND LATER MODELS CALL THE TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM). THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE ITEM AND I CALLED CHRYSLER CORP TO FIND NO HELP AT ALL. SO, THE LOCAL DEALER WAS SYMPATHETIC AND OFFERED ONE FROM THEIR PARTS DEPT. OF OVER $600. I HAVE OPTED TO INSTALL IT MYSELF AS I'M VERY CAPABLE AND COULD NOT AFFORD THE $1200 PRICE TAG ON THIS REPAIR THAT HAS COST ME TONS OF MONEY IN GAS/PARTS/TIME AND LABOR. SINCE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE LATER MODELS FOR THE TIPM THERE SHOULD BE ONE FOR THE OLDER ONES AS WELL THAT WE HAVE LIVED WITH FOR THIS LONG. ALL MODELS WITH THE MOPAR COMMUNITY HAVE THIS ISSUE AND THEY VERY WELL KNOW IT. REMEMBER THEIR BAILOUT? I DO... TIME TO OWN UP AND FIX THIS AND THEY IN TURN CAN FILE A CLAIM ON WHOM EVER THEIR SUPPLIER IS FOR THIS DEFECTIVE PART.
