2015 RAM 1500 Complaints

The contact owns a 2015 Ram 1500. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds, the engine warning light illuminated. While driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle was difficult to steer. The vehicle went into LIMP Mode, and lost motive power. The contact was able to veer to the side of the road where the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the intake manifold and toner wheel needed to be replaced. The mechanic informed the contact that there was no fuel pressure. The crankshaft position speed sensor magnet sensor had delaminated. The DTC code: P0336-00 was displayed. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was contacted, but no additional assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 133,000.

Electronic Power Steering unit/rack failed. Vehicle is available for inspection, although would need to be towed. My safety and other drivers around me has been put at risk due to losing all power steering while driving down the highway. All it would take is losing power steering in a curve on a major highway to cause a major accident. The Electronic Power Steering units on multiple year model Ram 1500's has been reported, my truck alone has lost steering once in October, and again for half of November up until today, December 3rd. My individual EPS has not been inspected by anyone. There is no warning light when the power steering fails, you will be driving along just fine and the next moment, your steering is lost and extremely difficult to move. Once you limp to safety and shut your truck off, a "Service Power Steering" message will pop up and remain on your dash until your power steering unit is replaced.

About a year ago my vehicles auto traction , brake light and abs light illuminated. The warning that my vehicle gives when I turn it on and start is braking system needs serviced and electrical breaking system needs serviced. The code that shows in diagnosis is abs brake module needs replaced. My brakes have not been right. The part has been back ordered for over a year. There are no parts and my dealer and Ram answer is it’s under engineering review till January 15. The dealership answer is get one from the junk yard which they’re aren’t any. I wouldn’t feel confident driving my grand babies with used brake parts. I was in an accident today because of brake failure and thankfully I didn’t hurt anyone in the car in front of me.

Approximately 1.5 years ago my 2015 Ram 1500 Antilock Brake light came on along with the messages service trailer brake system, service antilock brake system, and service electronic brake system. I have taken it to different dealers and auto mechanics to have it fixed only to be told that parts are no longer available. I was told by service department at dealer that I needed an ABS Module. I have checked with dealers for current availability of the parts numerous times since diagnosis only to be told that the part was still not available and that they did not have any idea when it would be available. I have been researching this problem and found this to be a common problem with Ram pickups. I have also found where a recall has been activated for 2019-2021 ram trucks with the same problem. This to me is a real safety issue that should be addressed and a recall activated for this and other older models with the same issue, as I have had a couple of incidents where I have had to apply heavy pressure to brakes to stop my vehicle only to have the brakes lock up causing me to nearly lose control of my vehicle. If this is not addressed, I feel that the issue could result in accidents, injury, or worse loss of life could occur. Thank you for your time.

On my 2015 ram 1500, When it's gets cold out my EPS freezes up to the point where I cannot turn the wheels. I have to let my vehicle run for awhile to regain steering. It also keeps going out when I'm driving. Some days my steering will work fine and other days it doesn't. There is no warning light that comes on on the dash before the steering doesn't work.

Subject: Complaint Regarding Camshaft and Lifter Failure in 2015 Ram 1500 5.7L V8 To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally submit a complaint regarding the camshaft and lifter failure in my 2015 Ram 1500 5.7L V8, which has only 141,000 miles. This issue began as a faint ticking sound—known commonly as the “Hemi tick”—and has progressively worsened, leading to severe internal engine damage. Now, I am faced with the need for a complete engine replacement. The “Hemi tick” is a widely recognized issue that often starts with a minor noise but is known to develop into serious mechanical failure in Hemi engines. Despite its prevalence, this issue is frequently dismissed until it causes significant and costly engine damage. In my situation, what began as a ticking noise has led to camshaft and lifter failure, which I now understand is a recurring defect in these vehicles. This situation presents a major safety concern. With these parts deteriorating from what appears to be a design flaw, there is a high risk of sudden engine failure while driving. The failure of the camshaft and lifters can lead to immediate loss of power, which could leave drivers stranded or in dangerous situations on highways and busy roads. Additionally, sudden engine failure at higher speeds could lead to loss of vehicle control, endangering not only the driver and passengers but also other motorists. I recently experienced this firsthand. Luckily, my family and I, were able to maintain control and get to safety. I believe that this widespread defect requires attention to ensure the safety of those on the road. I respectfully request that the NHTSA investigate the durability and reliability of the camshaft and lifters in Dodge Ram vehicles with Hemi engines and take appropriate action to address this safety risk. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that the NHTSA will act in the best interest of all drivers affected by this issue.

ABS control module and pump failed no replacement available waiting now for 1 year for parts this is a problem with a large amount of ram trucks. Need assistance from this agency
