2005 DODGE RAM 1500 Complaints

The contact owns a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500. The contact stated that while driving approximately 5 MPH, there was a banging noise followed by a dragging noise coming from underneath the vehicle. The vehicle was immediately stopped and upon inspection it was discovered that the fuel tank straps had failed and the fuel tank had fallen to the ground and was being dragged while the vehicle was being driven. The contact stated that the fuel tank straps were severely rusted. The contact stated that the fuel tank was filled with gasoline during the failure. The vehicle was towed to the local mechanic. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer and local dealer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 158,000.

My 2 rear tires the side walls have started comping apart on my cooper discoverer a/t 275/55/r20 I have tried to take them back to where I have purchased them and they told me the warranty is past 2 days ago and they could not replace them so here I am with 2 tires and no vehicle to drive with 3 month old tires so I looked up to see about the recall and it is for the a/t 3 but not the a/t so I don't know what to do the tires only have 1200 miles on them

To the truck to the dealership to get the airbag and rear end recall when it was finished I went to pick it up and the service manager told me that the rear tires have come apart on the sidewalls on the inside and have big knots on them brought it home and took them off and took them back to get them warranted and the tire shop told me it was 2 days past the warranty mark still have not gotten them replaced yet

On Feb. 20, 2023 my 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 was worked to have a repair for the AirBag Recall. I spoke with someone at JT's Dodge to set up the appointment PRIOR to 2-20-23 and was NEVER verbally informed that there was a posed risk of my dash being cracked and so I set up the appointment. I tried to update my information BUT the young lady on the other end REFUSED to update it stating I've been there before in the past. MY TWO listed phone numbers are correct (over 10 years) and my address reflected was not updated to my new home address. On the day of Feb. 20, 2023 I sent my son-in-law to take my truck to have the recalled air bag repaired, which he did. He reports being told in a non urgent, very vague manner that there's a possibility of the dash cracking and per the Service Manager "it doesn't happen very often but we have to tell you". My son-in-law signed the paperwork to have the airbag repaired. I was gravely ill and unable to take it myself or I would have. He signed the form; the service manager took photos showing there was NOT any cracks prior to the work being done and other photos showing a crack after the work had been done. I WAS NEVER CONTACTED at either working phone number listed on file. When I finally reached someone several days later they showed no concern. I now have an 8.5 inch crack in my dash putting myself and passengers at SAFTY RISK. POTENTIAL RISKS: My airbag is NOT properly pressurized, a delay with or the airbag not deploying at all if involved in a MVC/MVA, possibility of the airbag deploying WITHOUT being involved in a MVC/MVA and over time the crack could become larger/longer allowing dirt particles to get into the crack causing electrical problems or a malfunctioning airbag sensor. WHICH places myself and passengers in great danger at any moment. Apparently this is a known (uncared about) issue as reported by Dodge who has DISCONTINUED the dash saying it is "OBSOLETE", refusing to offer repairs or replacement, resolution.

I was driving about 45-50 mph and pushed on my breaks. When i pushed on my breaks, i had no power steering and was unable to accelerate. No warning lights. I pulled over and restarted the vehicle and it was fine. Was just purchased used and driving home from dealer.

This will be the 4th time since late 2020 that this vehicle will stall either at a stop or at low speed. EGR valve has been replaced 3 times. You lose power steering and harder to brake but for the grace of God my wife has not had an accident. If you search online there are hundreds of similar complaints.

The contact owns a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact had received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V313000 (Air Bags) and the vehicle was repaired by the dealer. Despite the recall repair, the contact stated that the air bag warning light remained illuminated. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer had offered any further assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 135,000.

Had taken my vehicle in for the recall they said it was fine , after wards two months later my front right break locked up. But now my rear end that was supposed to been fixed from recall vut now it is making loud noise

Tensioner for timing chain broke at highway speed truck stalled with no control or power steering to steer or breaks to immediate stop instead had to slow roll lucky live in small farm town with low population not alot of traffic could have been bad. Took to dealer dodge service department they noticed oil pan gasket was leaking when removed oil pan the tensioner and timing chain pieces were all in the bottom of oil pan..just like the challenger and charger cars the next group to have same motor as my truck and same issues with the MDS Being the problem on the tensioner why breaks in first place. Why theres recalled and not my same motor and problem? Any ways it failed and had to pay out of pocket on a faulty tensioner that is a very big safety concern and it I'm afraid caused more damage then that to other internal parts of my engine...

This aftermarket throttle body was on the truck when I purchased it 4 months ago. I live in Georgia and bought the car in Florida. In driving it home 400 miles, I noticed in stop and go traffic, the throttle was sticking. It would stick between 1500-2500 RPM with the clutch engaged (vehicle not in gear). I also noticed when I let off the throttle, I would continue my speed or even accelerate versus slowing down. I contacted BBK and they told me to ship it to them to be repaired, but that means I would be without my vehicle for weeks. Then I ask about this in a Facebook group and it appears this is a common, known issue. Even people who have bought a "reconditioned" throttle body from BBK have this same issue. I notice no where have you asked for the manufacturer's info so here it is: BBK PERFORMANCE 3060 Performance Circle, DeLand, FL 32724 Also here is the product on their website: https://www.bbkperformance.com/dodge-srt-10-throttle-body-04-06.html
