    The transmission failed while pulling my 5th wheel RV trailer. It is currently at a Ram dealership waiting to be repaired. It failed going up a hill on a two lane road without a shoulder forcing me to stop in my lane 3/4 the way up a country road. I was forced to put my parking brake on and emergency flashers until the sheriff’s car arrived 10 minutes later. This put my families safety and others as the traffic went around me and others cresting the blind hill in front of me. The dealer has confirmed that it is a failed transmission and it is an ongoing issue for these trucks. I’m assuming that the manufacturer has inspected these ongoing issues with this transmission. A warning light did come on at the moment the transmission failed. Other then that no warning.

    On 7/22/23 we were driving out to a trail head in the Grand Staircase-Escalante on a dirt/gravel road over a washboard at the time of failure. We were about 2-3 miles in on a 14 mile journey. It was 111 degrees and we were possibly going to have no cell service soon. Suddenly the 4WD system Temporary unavailable appears on the screen. Then I was able to push the 2wd button and it made a very load clunking sound. I was able to turn the truck around and barely got the truck up to 45 mph back to where we were staying. When we came to a stop the truck would rev and barley move. The check engine light came on with P0732-00 and P0731-00. It had failure to the transmission to the K1 Clutch Snap Ring (Ram has known about this and issued a service bulletin on 1/11/23 to all their dealers) I feel our safety was put at risk due to the temperature, possible no cell phone service and Ram has known about the problem but hasn't warned their customers. The truck was finally towed on 7/24/23 around 3 pm from Page, AZ to Flagstaff, AZ to Planet Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. They confirmed on 7/27/23 that the K1 Clutch Snap Ring had failed in the transmission. The truck was inspected by Ram. Ram roadside, Ram customer service, Planet Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, AAA and Geico were all notified. No warning lamps or messages appeared until failure. Ram has known about this problem with the 2022 - 2023 Ram 3500 4500 5500 with the Aisin transmission. I purchased this truck so we wouldn't have problems on our vacation. We were left stranded in Page, AZ with our 5th wheel trailer. No help from Ram to get my family and our trailer back to Reno, NV. The dealership and Ram never even responded to any of my calls until Wednesday 7/26/23. We had to rent a truck in Salt Lake City, UT after driving 800 miles round trip. We need to still get our truck back and the rental from Enterprise Truck, they will not allow us to have a one-way rental. As of now we have no update of when the truck will be ready

    This is regarding safety recall 13A/NHTSA 23V-060 - possible fire risk related to the air intake grid heater relay. This recall was issued in February 2023 and RAM/FCA has not fixed it yet. They "SAY" the part is available but it's really not as the distribution of the parts has been unacceptably slow. I am currently on the waiting list at 2 different dealerships and it might take another 6 months according to my regular dealership. Given the serious nature of the risk (fire), this is ridiculous. RAM also blithely states that the vehicle should be parked outside away from other structures. Is there anything you can do to expedite the repairs for all of us who are waiting? Thank you.

    Vehicle shut down in the middle of a busy road would not go forward reverse dead in the water.. had to truck shut truck plumb down. Then finally got the truck to move. Took it into the dealership told me to transmission was completely gone had just over 2,000 miles on it. If I would have been pulling a heavy load this could have been a very deadly situation.

    Trailer TPMS does not work. This is a widespread issue on Internet forums with the 2022 RAM specifically and RAM refuses to address the issue. The trailer TPMS will lose configuration without warning and stop monitoring tire pressure. The only workaround I’ve found is to repeatedly switch the trailer configuration within the infotainment until it happens to work properly. Sometimes it works immediately, sometimes it’ll take a couple minutes of switching settings. TPMS that cannot be relied on is a safety issue.

    Aisin transmission failed at 9800 miles. Faulty K1 snap ring failed and disabled gears 1-4. This resulted in truck freewheeling down hill on forest service road. No indication or warning of any problem prior to truck producing loud bang and losing forward control. This has been a known defect since late 2022 and Stellanis has not reached out to current owners with any warning or resolutions. Truck /transmission is at Ram dealer with verified K1ring failure. Awaiting parts

    The transmission failed. I was towing our bumper pull trailer on a narrow country, curvy road on the way to a National Park Campground and the truck failed. We are very lucky this didn't result in an accident. There was a loud clunk from underneath the truck, then a myriad of warning lights and the truck would not go forward. The truck had just slightly over 12,000 miles. The dealership has determined the transmission did fail and has ordered a transmission clutch kit. There were no warning signs prior this incident
