2013 RAM 2500 Complaints

ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WHEN YOU START THE TRUCK. HAD THE ENGINE LIGHT CHECKED SAID IT'S COMING ON BECAUSE THE DEF. THE DEF HAD A RECALL A COUPLE YEARS AGO AND HAD IT FIXED BUT NOW THE LIGHT IS COMING BACK ON FOR THE SAME PROBLEM.

AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS GOING ON AND OFF WHEN DRIVING. MAKES A ALARM SOUND WHEN THE LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF. WHEN YOU TURN ON THE VEHICLE THE TRUCK SAYS "AIRBAGS NEED TO BE SERVICED"

ELECTRIC DOOR LOCKS HAVE LOCKED AND UNLOCKED BY THEM SELF AND SOMETIMES WON'T LOCK AT ALL YOU HAVE TO KEEP HITTING THE FOB BUTTON OFF AND ON TILL THEY ACTUALLY LOCK OR THE LOCK BUTTON ON INSIDE DOOR . THIS HAPPENED ONCE WHILE DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT ROAD, THE OTHER TIME'S JUST WHEN TRYING TO UNLOCK TO GET IN AND WHEN GETTING OUT TO LOCK IT UP

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 RAM 2500. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED HOWEVER, FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT ENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKES TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT DIAGNOSED THE FAILURE AS AN INNER PLASTIC LINER TUBE IN HOSE COMING FROM THE STEERING WHEEL PUMP THAT JAMMED THE POWER SCREW VALVE. THE CONTACT REPAIRED THE FAILURE HIMSELF. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE LEFT MESSAGES FOR A LOCAL RAM DEALER HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO RESPONSE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 71,584.

WHEN PULLING MY KEY OUT AFTER PARKING MY VEHICLE AND TURNING OFF THE ENGINE I AM STILL ABLE TO SHIFT GEARS WITH THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION AND MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKES

1) AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON 2) ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. DODGE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAYS JUST IGNORE IT. 3) 4X4 4WD HAS NO RESISTANCE ON INTERIOR GEAR SHIFT

THE LAST TIME MY TRUCK WAS IN FOR RECALL WAS IN 2016. THEY DID NOT FIX IT THEN AND HAVE NOT FIXED ANY RECALL SINCE, BUT THEY CLAM THAT THERE IS ONLY ONE RECALL OPEN AS OF DATE. NONE OF THE RECALLS HAVE BEEN REPAIRED. THIS IS BEING PENCEL WHIPED.

DOOR LOCKS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY WITH KEY FOB, DOOR PANEL CONTROL OR KEYLESS TOUCH ENTRY MECHANISMS. STARTED AS INTERMITTENT ISSUE BUT IS NOW HARD FAILURE...PROBLEM MANIFESTS WITH FOLLOWING SYMPTOM: USING ANY LOCK/UNLOCK MODE ONLY THE DRIVERS DOOR AND TAILGATE LOCK/UNLOCK, WHEREAS THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AND TWO REAR DOORS DO NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK WITH ANY AVAILABLE MECHANISM...ADDITIONALLY, THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AND TWO REAR DOORS DO NOT LOCK WITH THE SPEED ACTUATED LOCKING MECHANISM EITHER. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE AND HAS BEEN BROUGHT UP IN SEVERAL OWNERS FORUMS.

THE TRACK BAR MOUNTS HAVE ALL THE WELDS CRACKED AND IT CAUSES THE TRUCK TO SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY AND IS VERY DANGEROUS. I HAVE ALMOST CRASHED TWICE DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. I SEE THAT FCA CURRENTLY HAS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM R46, MY TRUCK FALLS WITHIN THE MODEL AND YEARS BUT FOR SOME REASON IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. I NOTICED THE PROBLEM DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH THE TRUCK BEGAN TO SHAKE IN A VIOLENT AND UNCONTROLLABLE MANNER ALL THE CARS AROUND ME SLAMMED THEIR BRAKES TO STAY AWAY. I WAS ABLE TO BRAKE DOWN TO 20 MPH WHEN THE SHAKING STOPPED. I PULLED OVER TO THE EMERGENCY LANE TO EXAMINE MY TRUCK AND NOTICED THE CRACKED WELDS ON THE TRACK BAR MOUNT. I NEED TO HAVE THIS FIXED UNDER THE RECALL AS THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY PROBLEM FOR MY SELF AND MY FELLOW DRIVERS I SHARE THE ROAD WITH.

WHILE ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. MY RAM 2500 EXPERIENCED A IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER. CAUSING A NEAR COLLISION FROM FOLLOWING VEHICLES. UPON TAKING IT IN FOR SERVICE .IT WAS FOUND THAT THE DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER HAD EXPLODED AND PLUGED UP THE CATALYTIC FILTER. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER, BECAUSE MY TRUCK WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THEY SAID IT WAS A WEAR ITEM SO WOULD NOT BE COVERED. HOW IS A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE, A WEAR ITEM ?
