2012 DODGE RAM 1500 Complaints

TOOK TRUCK TO COPPUS MOTORS TIFFIN,OHIO ON 4/21/2015 DUE TO FRONT LEFT OF VEHICLE MAKING EXCESSIVE ROAD NOISE AND WANTED TO KNOW IF IT WAS FROM THE TIRE, OR SOMETHING WRONG WITH FRONT END. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY CHECKED BEARINGS AND SUSPENSION AND ALL CHECKED OK. WAS TOLD BY CHRYSLER TO HAVE A CERTIFIED DEALERSHIP FOR GOODYEAR CHECK TIRES, AT THAT TIME THEY ADVISED ME, THE FRONT END MUST BE OUT OF ALIGNMENT.TOOK TRUCK TO INDEPENDANT FRONT END ALIGNMENT BUSINESS, TO HAVE ALIGNMENT CHECKED AFTER PURCHASING NEW TIRES. TOE AND CAMBER WERE BOTH OUT AND WERE ADJUSTED. AFTER 3 WKS. TIME, FRONT END ALIGNMENT WAS OUT AGAIN. SAME BUSINESS, REALIGNED AGAIN. 2WKS LATER TOOK TO COPPUS MOTORS AND IT WAS OUT OF ALIGNMENT AGAIN, DEALERSHIP ALIGNED IT. 3WKS LATER TOOK BACK TO COPPUS MOTORS AS REQUESTED BY DEALERSHIP TO CHECK ALIGNMENT AND IT WAS OUT AGAIN. MY NEW TRUCK TIRES ARE NOW SHOWING EXCESSIVE WEAR AND ARE GOING TO SOON NEED REPLACED, AND TRUCK IS STILL NOT FIXED YET. AT THIS TIME, COPPUS MOTORS IS UNSURE HOW TO REPAIR ALIGNMENT SO IT WILL HOLD. SINCE THIS ALL STARTED I HAVE ONLY ACCUMULATED 4,000 MI. TO HAVE ANOTHER SET OF TIRES ALREADY SHOWING WEAR AND NEEDING REPLACEMENT SOON.

WHEN DRIVING OR DIPS OR SMALL HOLES ON THE ROAD THE TRUCK SHIFTS HARD TO RIGHT AND LEFT EVERY TIME.HAD FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT DONE PROBLEM STILL OCCURS .CAN'T BELIEVE OUT OF 600,000 VEHICLES NO RECALL OR BY BACK ON MY 2012 RAM.WHEN THEY SPECIFICALLY LISTED 2012 AS ONE OF THE YEARS THAT GOT RECALLED.I EXPECT A RECALL AND ACCOMMODATION.

FAILURE OF TIRES ON 2012 DODGE RAM 1500 TO STOP VEHICLE IN STATED DISTANCE WHEN ROADWAY IS WET. NOTIFIED DEALERSHIP TWICE AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. THESE ARE GOODYEAR TIRES.

I HAVE TRIED CONTACTING DODGE. I HAVE NOT RECIEVED ANY LETTERS OR A WRITTEN NOTICE ON MY RAM 1500 PICKUP. I AM STATIONED IN KOREA AND PURCHASED MY VEHICLE FROM A DEALER IN HUNTSVILLE ALABAMA. I HAVE THE TRUCK WITH ME. WHAT SHOULD I DO WHEN I GET NO ANSWERS FROM THE MAKER. I DO NOT WANT TO BE DRIVING A VEHICLE HERE THAT HAS A PROBLEM FOR WHICH I CANNOT GET IT FIXED AND MAY KILL ME OR SOMEONE ELSE IN KOREA. THE NEW CAR SALES PEOPLE HERE IN THE PX ARE NO HELP AND ALL THEY WANT TO DO IS SELL YOU A NEW CAR.

HAVE HAD ISSUES ON STEERING STRAIGHT AND VIBRATION AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE STEERING WHEEL HAS NOT BEEN IN ALIGNMENT SINCE BEFORE THE DEALER ALIGNMENT WAS DONE. TIRES SQUEAL AT TURNS AT SLOW SPEED, I HAVE HAD THE TIRES BALANCED ROTATED, I HAVE HAD THE TRUCK ALIGNED BY THE DEALER WITH NO EFFECTIVE DIFFERENCE IN THE STEERING OR THE WEAR ON THE TIRES.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON THE DASHBOARD AND STAYS ON FOR A WHILE SOMETIMES GOES OFF THEN COMES RIGHT BACK ON. MY WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID MESSAGE COMES ON EVEN WHITH A FULL TANK OF FLUID. MY DRIVER SIDE WINDOW GOES UP AND DOWN ON ITS OWN SOMETIMES. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THE "DEATH WOBBLE" COMING FROM THE FRONT END WHEN TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IF YOU GUYS COULD ENLIGHTEN ME ON ALL OF THIS THAT WOULD BE GREAT BECAUSE I SEARCHED MY VIN NUMBER AND NO RECALLS CAME UP. I DON'T WANT TO BE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AND MY STEERING SUDDENLY GOES. ALSO GOD FOR BID I GET INTO AN ACCIDENT I WANT TO MAKE SURE MY AIRBAGS WILL DEPLOY.

MY ABS AND BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS BOTH CAME ON IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ( DASH ) WHILE DRIVING. CAN THERE POSSIBLY BE A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM.

AT ABOUT 18000 MILES ON VEHICLE IT SUDDENLY STALLED. THROTTLE BODY CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON, RPM DROPPED TO ALMOST ZERO. PUMPING GAS PEDAL HAD NO EFFECT. CONDITION LASTED ABOUT 15 TO 25 SECONDS. TOOK TRUCK TO DEALER AND WAS INFORMED IT NEEDED A THROTTLE BODY SOFTWARE UPDATE. THIS WAS DONE. ALSO WAS PERFORMED AGAIN LATER. THE STALLING IS INTERMITTENT SOME TIMES NOT HAPPENING FOR WEEKS THEN AGAIN IT WILL HAPPEN UP TO 3 TIMES IN A WEEK.BIT ONCE STALLED ON MY LADY AS SHE WAS CROSSING AN INTERSECTION . VEHICLE NOW HAS 77000 MILES ON ODOMETER . I THOUGHT THIS JUST A HASSLE UNTIL ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO. AS I WAS MERGING ON TO THE INTERSTATE AT ABOUT 65 MPH IN FRONT OF A BIG TRUCK THE VEHICLE STALLED FOR A LONG PERIOD. THE BIG RIG WAS WITHIN A VERY FEW FEET OF MY VEHICLE BEFORE ENGINE STARTED RUNNING AGAIN. NEEDLESS TO SAY THIS SCARED ME BIG TIME. THIS WAS WHEN I STARTED TO LOOK FOR SOMEONE TO BE IN MY CORNER ON THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED BY DODGE DEALERSHIP REGULARLY SINCE NEW. EACH TIME I HAVE REPORTED STALLS AND AT ONE TIME HAD A CASE OPENED WITH CHRYSLER. I AM TOLD THEY FIND NOTHING AND THEY ONLY HAVE MY WORD THIS IS HAPPENING. THIS FROM DEALER AND CHRYSLER

AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS GO OUT WHILE RIDING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. OCCURS IN COLD WEATHER MORE THAN WARM WEATHER DEALERSHIP CANNOT FIND PROBLEM NEVER HAPPENS WHEN TAKEN IN.

AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON GOING TO DEALER THIS WEEK DOYLESTOWN, PA FRED BEAN IS THERE A RECALL YET FOR THIS PROBLEM FOR THIS VIN ? [XXX] [XXX] THANK YOU INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *JB
