2015 RAM 1500 Complaints

I RECEIVED A RECALL FROM FCA RECALL VB1. I CALLED THE DEALER ON MAY 15TH. THEY SAID TO BRING IT IN ON MONDAY MAY 18TH. I CALLED ON MONDAY AND THEY TOLD ME THEY HAD NO PARTS UNTIL JUNE 1ST. I CALLED ON JUNE 1ST TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT AND HE TOLD ME THERE ARE NO PARTS UNTIL JUNE 12TH!. THIS RECALL IDENTIFIES THAT THE EGR COOLER CAN LEAK COOLANT INTO THE MOTOR THAT COULD CAUSE A VEHICLE FIRE. IN THE LAST 8 WEEKS I HAVE PUT IN 6 GALLONS OF COOLANT.THIS IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I HAVE TO COMMUTE TO WORK IN.I DO NOT NEED LIP SERVICE I NEED IT FIXED NOW! *TR

WHILE TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT THE STEERING WAS LOOSE IN SPOTS AND THEN TIGHT IN SPOTS. IT MADE TURNING AND PREDICTING AMOUNT OF FORCE REQUIRED TO TURN UNPREDICTABLE AND DANGEROUS AS YOU MAY NOT TURN QUICK ENOUGH GOING INTO A TURN OR OVERSTEER INTO A TURN. DEALER WAS TO FIX, BUT NEW RACK AND PINION AND STEERING BOX MADE IT WORSE. *TR

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AT 66700 MILES. THE FUEL GAUGE DROPPED TO EMPTY. THE WARNING BOX POPPED UP AND SAID FUEL SENSOR FAILURE. IT WAS ABOUT 3/4 FULL WHEN IT HAPPENED. ALSO WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THE ECONOMIZER STOPPED WORKING. BASE ON A INTERNET SEARCH THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL MADE ON THE VEHICLES! THE FACT THAT YOU LOSE YOUR ECONOMIZER CAUSING INCREASED FUEL CONSUMPTION AND THERE BY WASTING GAS SHOULD SEND A WARNING FOR THIS TO BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY. THANK YOU FOR TIME. *TR

VERY HEAVY STEERING OCCURRING INTERMITTENTLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ACTS AS IF ELETRIC POWER STEERING ASSIST IS FAILING. ALSO OCCURS AT LOWER SPEEDS. *TR

FAULTY AIR SUSPENSION, THIS IS A VERY, VERY COMMON ISSUE IN RAM TRUCKS. DRIVER FRONT WENT DOWN, THEN BACK END. THE LIGHT CAME ON TO FIX AIR SUSPENSION. ITS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH SUSPENSION DOWN. THE FACT THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF TRUCKS OUT THERE WITH THIS ISSUE AND NO RECALL IS REALLY UNCALLED FOR. THEY CONTINUE TO FAIL SEVERAL TIMES OVER AND OVER AGAIN. IF THERE'S NO RECALL I WOULD HAVE TO IMAGINE THERE WILL BE A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT. EVERY MECHANIC I'VE TALKED TO IS IN DISBELIEF THAT THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED. *TR

THE EGR HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE FOR AWHILE NOW. THE TRUCK ISN'T THE SAME AS WHEN I BOUGHT AND I FEEL I PURCHASED A LEMON. IT DOESN'T NOT MEET MY EXPECTATIONS AND I FEEL I HAVE LOST THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. *TR

WHEN FIRST START UP STEERING VERY HARD TO TURN AND WHEEL NOT RETURNING TO CENTER LIKE ITS SUPPOSED TO / ALSO FEELS LUMPY SOMETIMES. *TR
