    I was driving home from work and my electronic power steering gave out and came back and gave out repeatedly, no warning light or signs of this. Came home to google it and saw this was being investigated and wanted to share that I also am experiencing it. This is dangerous because it becomes INCREDIBLY hard to steer.

    Vehicle would not restart after being shut off, thereby leaving me stranded on the side of the road in an area without cell phone reception or through-traffic, which led to me having to walk 7 miles at night while in below-freezing temperatures to get help. The engine component that failed was the tone wheel (part of the crank position sensing system). It failed without any warning. This engine component was previously subject to a recall (W58) that did not address the primary issue, which is the component's manufacturing/design defect that renders the vehicle inoperable as soon as it occurs. This defect can create life-threatening situations for drivers and passengers inside these vehicles when the defect occurs in uninhabited areas, as well as other motorists if the defect occurs on busy roadways. Many others have reported experiencing the same problem in vehicles with relatively low mileage, which is unique to this particular engine.

    The dealership and Ram are refusing to fix my fuel pump because it’s older than 2020. They are saying they’re doing it by newer to older vehicles. I’ve been tryin to get my truck fixed as the pump is making squeals and tapping. I’m afraid of the damage it’s causing my engine and don’t understand why they can’t fix it when they have the parts.

    My Ram 1500 has lost power several times while cruising at 55+. The first time was related to recall W58. My crank sensor became delaminated and caused my truck to completely die. After months of waiting I finally received my truck back, however, the recall is still open due to there being no fix. Just a few months later my truck died twice on the highway. This time it was due to recall Z46. After being sent from one person to the next all I am left with is I am on a list that is about 2 years behind for replacement parts.
