Was told the exhaust manifold bolt/studs warped and snapped and the exhaust manifold is warped, this happened on the driver side first but was covered under warranty but now happening on driver side out of warranty. Was told my dealership they see this often and was told fca has fixed the problem in newer years by using stronger material in the bolts. This informs me that fca knows of the problem but the dealers…

My 2014 dodge ram blows a powder out of the vents. I was driving down i5 doing about 60 mph and my heater kicked on blowing a white powder from the vents into my eyes. I was temporarily blinded and almost lost control of my truck. I was able to squint out of 1 eye and get pulled over safely to the side of the road. I believe my contacts saved my eyes. As the evaporator starts breaking down it allows a powder to form…

Noticed a small loss of radiator fluid, no visible leak, but did receive letter relating to a diesel egr cooler defect. Now am concerned about steam leaking into my engine oil and thus contaminating the engine oil with damaging effects on the engine internal parts. Egr valve should also be evaluated as it directly effects egr cooler.

Vehicle stalls randomly vehicle stalls randomly while driving. Dealer can't find issue. Vehicle just shuts off which in my opinion makes it unsafe. Dealer had a 'oh well good luck, trade it in and hope it doesn't stall' attitude.

The dail shifter on our truck both directions reverse and forward will not go. We have to shut the truck off and do this a few time to reset the computer to be able to move the truck. Took this in to get fixed and they said they can't find the problem on a meter and we took extra insurance for this kind of problem. I would like some answers before we are stuck in 114-degree weather. At all different time when you…

I had the emissions recall/repair for the ecodiesel engines per the class action lawsuit between the epa and fca. Fca claims that it would not effect power or gas mileage. My truck now has a significant lag from a stop as well as from 10 mph to about 20mph when one hits the gas and tries to accelerate. This decrease in power makes this vehicle dangerous especially when trying to pull on to a street that has oncoming…

Was advised to take truck in for recall reflash due to eco diesel settlement package. After recall fix was conducted, engine sluggish, shifting not smooth and miles per gallon dropped significantly. All this after a trip of 8 hours at legal speed limits.

My vehicle has tremendous lag when trying to accelerate, but it is not all the time. I never know when pulling out into a road at a left hand turn if i am going to get throttle response or a dead petal. Too many times not i have been stuck with tremendous lag and almost rear ended by vehicles while turning onto a road. This was never an issue until a forced "fix" for a recall on the ecodiesel engine. Upon initial…

2014 ram 1500 laramie ecodiesel throwing fault code p203e reductant level sensor circuit intermittent/erratic. This fault is caused by crystallized diesel exhuast fluid (def) on the integrated sensor in the def tank. The sensor is unable to detect the amount of fluid in tank and will shut down engine after 500 miles if the tank is not replaced. I do believe after extensive research this is a manufacturing defect.…

I had my truck at the dealer for a recall, i noticed my seatbelt wasn't locking when i pulled on the shoulder strap. I asked them to look into this when my vehicle was there. They did, said the seatbelt was defective, but chrysler was not going to cover this. After further review none of my seatbelt shoulder straps lock when you pull on them fast. I have a crew cab truck so that is 5 seatbelts with shoulder straps.…
