2020 RAM 1500 Complaints

The sun visor both driver and passenger are defective. When driving any sudden bump in the road causes it to fall and impairs vision of the road. The sun visor is broken from the bracket which causes it to detach and fall from original place. When I spoke to dealer they informed me it was a common problem with Dodge Ram and Jeep models . However, they said since there has been no recall they refuse to fix the visor issue.

Driver side sun visor connection point failure. The visor does not retract properly into the stowed position during driving, causing temporary moments of limited visibility. Use of the visor prior to failure was normal. The same failure actually occurred on the passenger side approximately 1 year prior. However, that was more of an inconvenience than safety issue. A local dealer did fix, and the cost was covered by the warranty. No inspection has occurred for the current driver side failure as of yet. I am awaiting an opportunity to have the vehicle serviced.

Rear power sliding window frame developed cracks at the top on both sides, above the center rear sliding window. THE FRAME LEAKS INTO CAB WHEN MOISTURE IS PRESENT. Water Intrusion has resulted in water intrusion in the rear cabin, which destroys the interior of the vehicles permanent stain marks; foul odors, mold, and mildew is a huge concern. My children ride in the back of my vehicle and I am concerned about the health issues this may cause in the future. My part is still covered under warranty at this time, however it will take 3 to 4 weeks for this part to be repaired and no guarantee it will not continue to happen at my expense, please fix this.

Both driver and passenger side visors have broken at the hinge causing the visor to hang or fall unexpectedly, impairing visibility. Passenger side broke at approx 37000 miles, driver side broke at approx 43000 miles. When driver side broke, vehicle was in motion and driver flipped visor down to shield the sun. Visor hinge broke causing driver to become both startled and sun blinded, nearly causing an accident.

The tailgate intermittently opens on it's own while driving. This has happened approximately 6-10 times since I purchased the vehicle in November 2021 with 10k miles. One time it was noticed less than 1 mile from home as I was travelling under 45 mph. Other times it has been at higher speeds. I was only made aware of it happening when other cars were motioning to me while I was driving. I always firmly shut the tailgate and give it a pull to confirm it is latched. I have gotten in the habit of clicking on the backup camera after I have been driving a few minutes because there does not appear to be a warning light. Because I carry many tools in the bed for work, there is a safety risk to following vehicles (in addition to the cost of lost tools). Upon inspection I have noticed play in the right hinge. It appears to be missing a bushing on the right side that is in place on the left side (photos attached). Because I drive so much for work I didn't take it to the dealer until it had 41k miles on it. The service writer witnessed the play. A an appointment has been made for August 4, 2022 for service, but I was told that it will not be covered under warranty. Feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss.

Power locking Tailgate opened while driving. This has happened a dozen times since I’ve owned the truck including the highway and local roads.

The drivers side sun visor will break loose in its mount and drop into the drivers line of vision without warning if the right holder is not engaged. It dropped on me while turning westward onto the evening sun. It completely blocked my view of the road and oncoming traffic. I had the visor open and hanging low as possible due to the evening sun.

The contact owns a 2020 Ram 1500. The contact stated while driving approximately 25 MPH, the transmission erroneously shifted to the park(P) causing the vehicle to abruptly stop and independently turn off in the middle of the road. After restarting the vehicle, the vehicle operated normal; however, later the failure recurred with the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the check engine warning light remained illuminated. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer was contacted and a service appointment was scheduled. The manufacturer was not yet contacted. The failure mileage was 47,767.

On May 31, 2022 I purchased a 2020 Dodge Ram 1500 from Rountree Moore in Lake City Florida. I was sold this vehicle under the pretense that it had been safety checked and the vehicle was road worthy. On June 17, 2022 the front tires became low on air and I had to refill the air pressure in the tires. I was scheduled to go out of town for "Father's Day" weekend and the tires became a concern for me. On Saturday, June 18, 2022 I took my vehicle to Billings Tire in Providence, Florida to check the tires before taking my trip. I was informed that the two front tires must of be originals and never rotated and some of the metal was coming through the tires. Both rear tires were not the correct size tires for this truck and needed to be replaced although they were practically new. I called my dealership salesman, Justin, and relayed the issue to him. He in turn called Billings Tire and spoke with the owner and was suggested to Justin that this issue should have been caught during the safety inspection the dealer performs. I was also informed from Billings Tire that all 4 tires should be replaced because they were safety hazards. I spent over $900.00 on new tires that same day. I have been calling Justin about this issue and he keeps putting me off and tells me is General Manager is not in. It has been a week ago and no resolution. I feel as though I was highly pressured into purchasing this truck just to make a sale and the truck was NOT road worthy. I drive the interstate 5 days a week going to work. I feel I could have been killed as well as placing others in harms way at high speeds.

Rear sliding window frame cracks causing potential water leaks and mold if not corrected has been reported by multiple people of this happening to this vehicle
