VEHICLE WILL NOT START, "WRONG KEY FOB" APPEARS ON DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER. AFTER TRYING MULTIPLE TIMES, KEY FOB WILL NOT COME OUT OF DASH. NO PUSH BUTTON OR REMOTE START. RESEARCH INDICATES THERE HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH DODGE KEY FOBS SINCE AT LEAST 2011.

THERE ARE BOLTS ON THE MANIFOLD THAT KEEP BREAKING. I HAVE GONE INTO THE SHOP 3 TIMES FOR CALL BACK ISSUES. EACH TIME THEY CHECK MY MANIFOLD, I HAVE BOLTS THAT ARE BROKEN. 1.5 YEARS AGO I REPLACED 2 BOLTS. IN MAY OF 2018 I REPLACED 2 BOLTS. IN JULY OF 2018 I REPLACED 7 BOLTS. THE DEALER SAYS THEY REPLACE BOLTS ON THE DODGE,EVERY WEEK. THEY CALL IT A DODGE THING. THEY SAY IT IS FROM THE TORQUE, WHEN IT HEATS UP. THEY ARE BREAKING WHILE I AM DRIVING.

WE HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE EXCELLERATING ON ITS OWN FOR OVER TWO YEARS WHEN YOU LET OFF THE BREAK AFTER A STOPLIGHT THE TRUCK EXCEL RATE TO 1500 RPM IS MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO STOP THIS CONDITION HAPPENS ANYTIME OF THE YEAR AND ALL DRIVING CONDITIONS AS WELL DOES IT WHENEVER IT FEELS LIKE IT

2014 DODGE RAM 250. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO BRAKE TRANSMISSION SHIFT INTERLOCK SAFETY RECALL. *LD *JS

VEHICLE HAS AN ACCELERATOR LAG WHEN PUSHING DOWN FAST ON THE THROTTLE. IN CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE YOU NEED THE VEHICLE TO RESPOND QUICKLY IN ORDER TO AVOID ANOTHER VEHICLE THE ACCELERATOR LAGS FOR 1 TO 3 SECONDS BEFORE RESPONDING. THIS OCCURRED WHILE IN VERY SLOW MOTION CROSSING A CITY STREET. WAS TURNING ACROSS TRACFIC WHERE VEHICLES WERE COMING OVER A HILL.

T79 BRAKE TRANSMISSION SHIFT INTERLOCK. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT A FIX FOR THIS LOCKING PIN HAS NOT BEEN CREATED. SO THIS WILL CAUSE IT TO POSSIBLY SHIFT OUT OF PARK WITH OUT WARNING. SO THE PART HAS NOT BROKEN YET WITH 91K PLUS ON IT. WHICH IS NOT GOOD FOR SURE BECAUSE IT COULD BREAK AT ANY GIVEN TIME AND I PULL A LOT OF TRAILERS. ALSO TRYING TO SELL MY TRUCK HAVE LOST SEVERAL SELLS DUE TO IT. PLUS EVEN TRIED TO SELL AND CAN NOT TRADE IT IN EVEN. SO CANT GET OUT FROM UNDER THE TRUCK.

THE TRUCK IS A CNG MODEL AND THE CNG REGULATOR HAS FAILED. THE TRUCK WILL NOT RUN ON CNG WITHOUT REPLACING THE $1800 PART. THE REGULATOR EMITS THE NATURAL GAS INTO OPEN AIR THAT CAN BE SMELLED IN THE CAB.

TRUCK MADE LOUD POPPING NOISE WHEN TURNING TO EITHER SIDE AND WHEN ENCOUNTERING BUMPS. STEERING TRACK BAR AND MOUNTING BOLTS WERE BROKEN AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

DATE 2/18/2018 AND AT MILEAGE 68,000 POWER STEERING PUMP AND THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE TO BOOSTER FAILED. THE FAILURE RESULTED IN LACK OF STEERING AND BRAKES AT HIGHWAY SPEED DRIVING TO WORK.
