2018 RAM 1500 Complaints

Backup camera blanks out to blue screen during operation. Does it randomly, has done it multiple times, seems to have a mind of its own.

More than 1 year after a safety recall, there is still no remedy available. This is unacceptable for a safety issue. Now there is a new recall for the same issue that was previously recalled. Something seems fishy. Is my truck safe to drive? Buy it back if it can't be fixed. Seems reasonable to me.

While accelerating onto the freeway my truck lost power and displayed a check engine light. Upon having the code read it was P-0336 which is for a crankcase speed sensor. I was nearly rear ended by a tractor trailer due to the loss of power. Stellantis was unable to help with answers as far as the recall information regarding recall 66A which is to be an extension of recall 20V-475.
