Front differential locked up without notice on highway at highway speed and almost lost control of my vehicle. Due to the front different locking up, the front driveshaft broke but did not come completely off right away and almost came through the floor of my vehicle. The floor where the drivers feet rest right underneath the brake pedal and gas pedal bent up a few inches and is almost touching the pedal. Pieces of the driveshaft flew out all over the highway and could have injured or killed someone else if it wasn’t early AM when roads were empty. Dash cam footage shows the moment it happened, it felt and looks like I hit a land mine. Front differential needs complete replacement, there is a hole in my frame and much more was damaged due to this. Towed into dealer and manufacturer denied warranty claim. Arbitration determined it was a warrantable item and a lemon but the manufacturer still refuses to do anything about it except repurchase the vehicle at a discounted price. Very scary.

Last week this took place: 2019 Ram 3500 Dual rear wheels AISON transmistion is outfitted with factory trailer brake module. Was hauling a horse trailer near 30,000 lbs to a horse show, caravaning with crew pulling a second horse trailer about the same weight with a 2020 Ram 3500 (Vin #3C63RRNL7LG242818 (see separate complaint)) . All connections checked before departure. ABS warning light went on a few days before then disappeared. When braking, no trailer brakes engaged. Then checked hand paddles on the factory trailer brake module and the hand paddles activated the trailer brakes. Took it into the dealership to check codes and they said none appeared or were somehow reset.

Traveling approximately 65 mph when tonneau cover blew off. Luckily no one was behind me so no accident occurred. Appears that wind got under a corner of the cover and put pressing on the locking handles. The rear two handles snapped off and we’re still in the bed of the truck when the cover blew off. I saw online that this has happened to other people. I’m not sure the name of the tonneau cover but it is OEM from Ram.

I was driving on the highway north from Lawton Oklahoma to Oklahoma City Oklahoma when my truck steering wheel abruptly began to violently shake and the truck dart to the right. I slowed to about 5 miles per hour and the truck began to bounce, left to right. I took the truck to a ram dealer and was informed the the driver side front tire needed immediate replacement. My truck has 12,500. miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. After dealer I took the truck to a tire shop (listened to how Nexen tires are poorly constructed). I also researched the exact tire on my truck further and learned that treat separation happens without notice. I also spoke with a friend who owns a similar ram and learned he had already replace his tires for the same issue. Low mileage in his example as well. I save both front tires for inspection if anyone is interested. These tires are clearly unsafe!
