2013 RAM 2500 Complaints

VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT NEW THE RADIO SCREEN WENT BLANK BUT THE RADIO WAS STILL ON. DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE RADIO SCREEN WOULD GO ON AND OFF AND THE COMPASS DIDN'T WORK. I WAS TOLD IT MIGHT BE THE UCONNECT.. THE SAFTEY CAMERA BACK UP WOULDN'T WORK . I TRIED TO TURN THE TRUCK OFF AND ON TO RESET THE RADIO BUT THAT DIDN'T WORK. I TOOK THE TRUCK IN TO NAPLETON AND THEY REPLACED THE RADIO WITH A NEW ONE.

VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT NEW EVER SCENTS THEN I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE 4 RADIOS AND COMPASS IN MY TRUCK.. THE SCREEN WOULD GO BLANK BUT THE RADIO WOULD STILL BE ON BUT YOU COULDN'T TURN IT OFF . I 'VE BEEN TOLD IT WAS THE UCONNECT ETC .THE SAFETY OF THE BACK UP CAMERA DOESN'T WORK. I TRIED TO TURN THE TRUCK OF TO RESET BUT THAT HAS NEVER WORKED THEY KEEP GETTING THE RADIOS FROM THE SAME VENDOR. I RECOMMENDED THAT THEY USE A DIFFERENT SUPPLIER . CHRYSLER HASN'T BUT WHAT DO I KNOW.

FACTORY MOUNTED ELECTRIC BRAKE CONTROLLER DOES NOT PUT OUT ENOUGH VOLTAGE AND CURRENT TO SAFELY STOP A HEAVY TRAILER. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND MANY OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING IT.

AT HIGHWAY SPEED, ABOUT 60-65 MPH I WENT INTO AN UNCONTROLLABLE WOBBLE. IT WOULD ONLY CALM DOWN AFTER DECREASING SPEED TO LESS THEN 35 MPH. THE TRUCK ONLY HAS LESS THEN 35,000 MILES. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THAT CLAIMED IT HAD BAD BALL JOINTS. AGAIN THE TRUCK ONLY HAS LESS THEN 35,000 MILES ON IT. DODGE RAM JUNK.

WHEN I HIT THE GAS PEDAL AND LET OFF FOR A SECOND AND THEN TRY TO RETURN TO THE GAS PEDAL THERE IS NOTHING. A LOT OF PEOPLE CALL IT "DEAD PEDAL" IT HAS ALMOST GOTTEN ME HIT MANY TIMES DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. THIS HAPPENED ON A MOUNTAIN ROAD IN THE SNOW AND ALMOST GOT ME AND MY WIFE KILLED. IF THERE HAD NOT BEEN A STUMP THERE, WE WOULD HAVE PLUNGED ABOUT 500 FEET OFF THE EDGE OF THE MOUNTAIN. NOT COOL. THE DEALER TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I GUESS WHEN IT GETS ME KILLED, I WILL HAVE TO HAVE MY FAMILY SUE DODGE OVER IT.
