The contact owns a 2020 Ram 1500. The contact stated that as he hitched a travel trailer to the rear of the vehicle, the rear springs collapsed, and the vehicle was no longer level due to the lack of support from the lift springs. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The contact stated he received a recall notification from the manufacturer informing him that the vehicle was not assembled with the proper lift springs and the dealer would replace all four coil springs with the 1-inch lift spring for the suspension of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for the recall repair and the dealer replaced the lift springs with the same standard coil spring instead of the 1-inch lift spring as instructed by the manufacturer. The dealer was made aware of the issue and informed the contact that they could not assist because they were not allowed to change the sales codes on the vehicle. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. The contact was still awaiting a call back from the manufacturer. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 10,500.

Rear windshield surround cracked. Water is entering vehicle. Concerned about excessive moisture in and around airbags.

The contact owns a 2020 Ram 1500. The contact stated that while reversing the vehicle, the back over prevention camera ceased and the brakes locked up without warning. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. The contact was informed to deactivate the safety device. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 8,200.

Steering wheel locked up while car was moving. Was able to replicate. Seems intermittent though. Towed to the dealership, wasn't locking then. Service Representative confirmed they have seen this before and seemed to know exactly what to do. Scary - life safety issue!

Vehicle engine shuts off unexpectedly while in operation. Can happen in any condition: idling, accelerating, cruising or coasting. If at a slow speed (less than 5mph) vehicle activates emergency breaking then shifts itself into park. Can happen WITH or WITHOUT “Auto Start/Stop” being activated (fuel saver). When emergency breaking enacted, I’ve almost been rear-ended by trailing car. This issue has been reported on driver forums.

Sunroof exploded into pieces while driving. With a shotgun sounds. No outside impact on the pieces of the sunroof.

I bought my 2020 Ram on 6/7/2021, driving it home that night the throttle body control sensor and the steering stabilizer sensor failed and came across my dashboard along with a check engine light, the truck started quickly acceleratingon its own, I had zero response from the gas pedal I could only use the brake. The next day it went back to the dealership to be fixed. They replaced the sensor in the gas pedal. I had to wait a few days to get it fixed. On 6/23 this problem happened again, the truck started rapidly accelerating on its own. The dealership towed it from my house to an authorized Ram dealer. I had to wait 2 weeks to get it back. I got it on 7/7. The dealership said that they did computer work to the truck but found no other issues, the sensor in the gas pedal was fine. Driving home from work last night 7/9 the dashboard lit up again and the truck started accelerating on its own for the 3rd time. I am now afraid to drive it.

The tailgate gets stuck closed leaving me unable to open it until I take it to the dealership and they pry it open with a tool from the shop. The tailgate also randomly pops open while driving and carrying items in the bed of the truck. Luckily nothing has fallen out since I also strap it in.

I HAVE BEEN NOTICING MY TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN SLIPPING FROM TIME TO TIME STARTING AROUND 35 TO 40 MPH. IT ONLY HAS 22000 MILES ON IT, AS WELL AS BOGGING DOWN THE ENGINE WHEN I LET OFF THE GAS WHEN IT DOSE HAPPEN.
