2022 RAM 3500 Complaints

The Deisel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), SUPPLY LINE (part #57008975AA) has been replaced on my truck 4 times in 113 k miles. It now needs replaced again. The last 2 times were less than 5000 miles each. It is a plastic line that runs from the DEF tank and passes nearby the exhaust filter which is very hot. A RAM dealer in Georgia told me they have sold/replaced many of these lines. When cracked, they leak DEF in large volumes on the ground which then becomes contaminated.

I was driving coming to a stop for a red light and it turns green. As I go to press on the gas my dashboard lights up with error codes stating a 4WD System error of some kind. As I go to press on the gas the truck loses power and acceleration and starts making a horrible clunking noise. I took it to the dealer because it seems like a transmission issue. This is a 2022 Ram 3500 with 9300 miles at time of failure. I would hate to see what happens if I was towing a large load to lose power all of a sudden risking my life and others around me. Based on what I have researched it seems like a K1 Snap Ring issue to the T. Waiting on the "official" diagnosis from the dealer.

When pulling onto the interstate on ramp (45 mph) the truck attempted to shift up when all transmission power failed. The engine ran fine, just no power. I was able to safely pull to the shoulder and park . s Shifting from drive to neutral to park and back to drive still did not resolve the issue. I put the truck in park and shut off the engine . The transmission fluid temp, color and level was ok. I restarted the truck and shifted to reverse with no problem then to neutral and drive. It felt that the transmission engaged and I slowly crept forward. I slowly accelerated and was able to resume speed. No subsequent loss of power has been encountered, BUT the truck now has slippage from 1st to 2nd gear and occasionally 3rd. Had I been on the interstate this has a potential for serious accident incident. This is the first time this has happened. I had bought the truck used and certified from the dealer in Pennsylvania. There is currently 28k miles on the truck. There were and still no warning or codes to indicate a problem This occurred [XXX] 2024. No dealer, tech or shop has looked at this issue.

This vehicle left me stranded due to Aisen transmission failure with only 2000 miles on the vehicle. Has been at dealer for 3 months awaiting rebuild due to faulty clip. Why is nothing being done? Why am I not getting a new transmission? or better yet forced buy back

Discovered that the passenger side seat belt warning chime does not operate when someone is sitting in the passenger side front seat. I contacted the manufacturer just now who told me no one will be in contact with me, they just take the information. I asked the value of their customer care and they responded I don’t know. A case number was assigned but again, I was informed no one will make contact. I would think this is a safety law violation especially since we live in California. I need help here please.

Transmission went out. Lost 1-4th gear. It was the K1 snap ring in the transmission. Lost power going up a mountain in a National Park exhaust brake either to slow vehicle. Check engine light came on

The dealer and manufacture have not been able to fix emissions issue. It has cause severe fuel saturation in oil and has cause severe motor damage. No one cares and they brush it off as no big deal.

K1 Clutch Snap Ring failure in the AS69RC Aisin transmission. I loss all forward motion on [XXX] in Iowa City. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My trucks transmission experienced a complete failure, it is currently at the dealership awaiting parts and repair The failure renders the truck without any forward power almost immediately with only reverse left functioning, we were fortunate that it broke down in a residential neighborhood and not the freeway. The truck was towed to the local dealership, they tore down the transmission and confirmed a K1 snap ring failure and that it would be covered under wtty. I got a malfunction indicator light a few days prior then a message on the dash "4 wheel drive system temporarily unavailable" about 10 miles before complete failure. CSN 71A appears to have been issued and sent to some truck owners to advise snap ring replacement as a preventative measure, however my truck was not included in the CSN campaign, not sure why

1, The Aisin AS68RC transmission failed. The dealership had to ship the defective complete back to Aisin . 2. On [XXX] with only 2,886K miles while on Interstate [XXX] in Boston Massachusetts . I just entered the highway and was getting into the middle lane getting up to high way speed. The Tachometer shot up in rpm’s and there was no more forward gear. I was doing about 50-60mph. I had to cost from the middle lane to the brake down lane with my 20’ trailer in tow in heavy traffic. Once in the brake down lane I was able to go in reverse but couldn’t go forward. Loud clunking when put into gear and trying to move forward. 3. The vehicle was towed to the dealership from [XXX] that night to Herb Chambers Millbury Ram and confirmed transmission failure. 4. Aisin sent a complete transmission assembly to the dealership for installation. So the dealership inspected it. 4. There were NO warning lights before transmission failure. I did notice the truck felt Rough over 40 mph before transmission failure since I picked it up brand new from the dealer. Absolutely NO warning light/ indicator prior to Transmission failure!!!!
