2001 DODGE RAM 2500 Complaints

THE ABS SENSOR WIRE WAS DAMAGED BY CONTACT WITH THE RIGHT WHEEL. THIS CAUSED THE ABS SYSTEM TO BELIEVE THAT THE WHEEL WAS NOT TURNING AND ENGAGED THE ABS SYSTEM MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO ENGAGE THE BRAKES. SPEED WAS APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH. THIS RESULTED IN HAVING TO QUICKLY ENGAGE THE 2001 RAM 2500 INTO PARK. THE TRUCK CRASHED INTO THE MY GARAGE DOOR. IF THIS HAPPENED IN A TRAFFIC SITUATION THE RESULTS COULD HAVE BEEN VERY BAD. IF ONE OF MY CHILDREN HAD BEEN IN THE DRIVEWAY THIS PROBLEM WOULD HAVE PROBABLY RECEIVED MORE ATTENTION. THIS WIRE SHOULD NOT EVER BE ABLE TO COME IN CONTACT WITH THE WHEEL AND THE ROUTE IS POORLY PLANNED. *TR

I AM NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER BUT I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE ABOUT THREE YEARS NOW AND THE DASH JUST STARTED CRACKING FOR NO REASON. POOR MATERIAL IN DASH COMPOUND? I OWNED A 1996 CHEVY PICK UP WHERE THERE WAS A RECALL TO REPLACE THE DASH BECAUSE OF IMPROPER MATERIAL MIXTURE, WHY WONT DODGE REPLACE THE DASHES IN THESE DASHES IN THESE PICKUPS FOR THE SAME REASON? *TR

FAILURE OF FUEL LIFT PUMP ON 2001 DODGE RAM 2500 DIESEL ENGINE. PUMP FAILED CAUSING TOTAL LOSS OF POWER WHILE MERGING WITH TRAFFIC . *TR

I KEEP MY 2001 DODGE RAM 2500 DIESEL IN MINT CONDITION. THERE IS NO REASON THE DASHBOARD CRACKED. I ARMOR ALL IT AND CLEAN THE INSIDE ALL THE TIME. I KEEP THE GLASS COVERED AS WELL WITH SUN VISOR.

2001 DODGE 2500 AND SIMILAR MODELS. DASH BOARDS CRACK AND BREAK APART COMPLETELY RESULTING IN MUCH OF THE DASH BEING GONE. REPORTS OF AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT FROM BROKEN PIECES INSIDE DASH. RECOMMEND A RECALL OF ALL MODEL VEHICLES 1994-2002 DODGE PICKUP TRUCKS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD TO REMOVE THE FUSES ON MY VEHICLE TO PREVENT AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT DUE TO THE FACT THAT MY DASH IS COMPLETELY DISINTEGRATED, AND AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. I HAVE ALSO CUT MY HANDS ON THE SHARP EDGES OF THE BROKEN DASH PIECES.*TR
