2024 RAM 1500 Complaints

The contact owns a 2024 Ram 1500. The contact stated while driving approximately 5 MPH, the vehicle lost power, the parking brake activated, and the transmission independently shifted into the park. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The instrument panel showed that the battery charge had dropped to 12-Volts. The failure had occurred twice. The tow truck company was contacted and was able to recharge the battery and the contact to drove the vehicle to the residence. The contact stated that approximately 3 weeks later the failure recurred a second time at 1,800 miles. The vehicle was towed to the dealer however, the dealer was unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 800.

Came to a stop sign, waited for traffic to clear to turn left as I floored it started moving and then all of a sudden loss acceleration and notice rpm ramped up to 7k. As in was just coasting I notice only my rpm would go up but the truck wouldn’t move. Lucky I coasted to the side of road and shifted to park. Turned off car and then restarted. Drive home the remaining 30 miles which it seemed to work fine. Kinda scary thinking u can lose power trying to merge into traffic but lucky there was no one coming behind me only 7k miles on my 1500 but now I gotta be careful when pulling out into traffic and really sucks cause the reason I bought the truck with the hemi was for me to be able to accelerate fast ..

Vehicle ran out of fuel while still showing that it had fuel in it. Fuel gauge did show low, but it still showed that it had 23 miles left until empty. Ran out of gas and shut off going 75MPH on 5 lane highway.

The truck died had to jump it. I was driving it and it stopped itself went into park automatically. it turned on the parking brake. and then died. Took several minutes to start. Now the truck on first start up and first shift into gear there is a delay and no power to the drive train then has I’m hitting the gas it accelerates very quickly

During normal driving conditions the vehicles air conditioning system and interaction pane malfunctions. The issue has occurred twice during ownership. First occurrence was after going over a speed-bump at approximately 1-5 mph. The second occurrence was when coming to stop to make a turn. In both occurrences, the air conditioner was set enabled and coldest, and fan speed was set to 2-3. During the first occurrence (March 15th, 2024 at 4:28 PM EST), the fan speed self-raised to 7; internal circulation was likely already enabled. The Front and Rear defrosters turned themselves on, and temperature self-raised to mid-warm to hot. Attempting to lower the temperature, fan-speed, and attempts to disable defrosters immediately fail. The visual indicator shows its being lowered or disabled, but immediately re-enables or raises. In the second occurrence was June 14, 2024 at approximately 6:25 PM EST. This time, the fan speed did not self-raise; instead, just the cabin heat raised and defrosters enabled. In both occurrences, the touch screen is clean and clear of liquids or debris. In both occurrences the issue ceased after approximately 30-60 seconds, and controls functioned without issue. No prior contact was made to the screen prior to these occurrences. No modifications have been made to the vehicle to warrant this failure. No check engine light or other illumination/warning appeared during the occurrences. Video of occurrences are available upon request by government or manufacture.

For reference, there are only 4,780 miles on my vehicle. I was driving 20mph when my 2024 Ram Tradesman dash lit up "Shift to P to Start". Checked my gear and it said I was still in drive? I slowed down to park, and then it said "Press Break and Push Button to Start". Again, still driving (slowly luckily). I began to slow the vehicle to 8mph and the whole vehicle stalled and the dash read "Shifter Autocorrect Engaged" and it literally THREW my vehicle into park and engaged the E-Break. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle any longer. There are MULTIPLE instances with models as old as 2018 and as new as 2024 that this is happening. And not just at slow speeds. I have read multiple instances in people traveling on the interstate at 70+mph and they are crashing. My vehicle may be under warranty still, but my life is not, neither is my husband and children's lives. This vehicle is how we get places as a family and it puts all four of us at risk of injury or death. This is a HIGH risk glitch. I contacted the Dan Cummins dealership in Paris KY and they said they had NEVER heard of this problem? But it's ALL OVER the internet? And it hasn't been recalled? They said it would be 2 weeks before they could look at it and acted like it wasn't a major issue. I am furious. This is people's LIVES at risk. This isn't a camera malfunction, or a tailgate that doesnt lock. This is the engine shutting down then the E-Break engaging when driving and potentially flipping and spinning my vehicle out of control. Not to mention other problems like my driver side window glitching and not rolling up until I hit it two and three times, or the AC shutting down and blowing out hot air when the automatic hybrid kicks in/or the truck is half shut down at lights. But this? This is it. I will not drive a vehicle made by a company who KNOWS they have RECURRING problems and refuses to recall the vehicle for YEARS. It is hazardous to LIFE.

Tailgate misalignment and faulty security issue. Tailgate opened unreasonably ant least 3 times: while parked, while driving and caused damage.

My vehicle has died( engine turned off) while driving at slow speeds. After turning off, the emergency brake is deployed. This is the 2nd time in the past 30 days this has occurred.

While sitting at a stop right, the truck unexpectedly revved to full throttle. I stood on the brakes, shifted to neutral and turned it off.

The vehicles main 12inch information screen goes blank and will not turn on until about 45 minutes after the vehicle has been running when the information is black no safety features work and the dash reads no key detected in the vehicle while the key is inside
