2019 RAM 3500 Complaints

The vehicle info on the dashboard tells me "Exhaust System Service Required See Dealer" and the check engine light came on. Took the vehicle to the dealer who cleared the DTC's with no resolution to the problem and sent me on my way. Problem returned within 150 miles, codes cleared. Problem returned again with same notice on the dash board and check engine light. Called a different dealer who said get it in right away, the truck will go into limp mode within a certain mileage range. Went to another dealer with the same results. Codes cleared, check engine light went off and no resolution to why this happens. Was told if it happens again bring it back.

I have concerns about the ball joints on my Ram 3500 they have been replaced 4 times under warranty. Each time the truck becomes hard to keep under control and wonders back and forth while driving. This is a known issue with Ram

When truck is in cruise control on with driver assist on, if I run off side of road and go over the ridges on the side that alert driver my ABS light comes on saying my driver assist and my cruise control can no longer be used and my ABS breaking system requires a mechanic. If I reset my system all goes back to normal till I go over rough road or ridges. I have less than 10,000 miles on truck. From what I hear from other Dodge owners this is a common occurrence.
