I had the same issue as the current recall for the cars and suv rolling away while in park. I have video from my dash camera, the dealership and corporate office also has the video. They claim i just left if in drive, but in the video you can clearly hear the truck shifted into park. The vehicle starts rolling approximately 1 and a half minutes after i parked it in my driveway. I came back out of my house to find…

Due to the recent media coverage on tv i just checked my ram 1500 for recalls and saw there were 3 outstanding. The only recall i was informed about was r40/nhtsa 15v-461, and i only received that last week in the mail. I have never been informed via mail, email, or phone of any of the other recalls. This is totally unsatisfactory and unsafe. Isn't ram responsible to notify me of recalls in a timely manner?

The horn has a delay when pressed to sound off. It will honk seconds after you remove your hand from the horn. Not safe. Would not pass department of transportation inspection if it were a commercial vehicle.

Our '14 ram 1500 was bought new on 6/22/15. On 8/9/15 our new 2014 dodge ram was parked on a incline in a friends driveway. My wife and son got in the truck, started it and put it into reverse to leave. After moving only a few feet my wife noticed the hostess coming down the drive to say goodbye. She placed the truck in park, got out of the vehicle leaving the door open and walked to the front of the truck. While…

Vehicle has had a continual vibration/shaking since new. The tire have been replaced twice, balanced 8 times, and the differential has been replaced. The fender flares have also been replaced for detachment with the thought that they may have caused the shaking. I have opened three cases with fca and asked to have the vehicle replaced. The area service representative will not acknowledge a problem even though the…

While driving the vehicle home from, after hitting the speed limit of 65, the vehicle started to shimmy, side to side, and continued at a higher speed. I called the dealer, and returned the truck to have it serviced, but it did not help. I was told it was flat spots on the tires, and to give it some time. After almost 4000 miles, and 4 visits back for service, i was told there was nothing they could do. All the…

There is water coming inside the vehicle, with assumption that it comes from the rear doors. First time it was noticed there was only a minor impact: wet floor carpet in back. After that first event, we ensured the windows were always fully closed in order to see if there would be any other leak event. However following the heavy rain we have had in may in houston, while the car was parked in driveway without moving…

Vehicle cannot be locked without horn honking. Both dealer and chrysler have told me that uconnect 5.0 system has no means of disconnect or reprogramming to eliminate horn honking when car is locked. Local p.d. And california highway patrol confirm that it is a violation for horn to honk - except in emergency or as alarm. See ca. Vehicle code section 27001 & 28085.

While coming to a stop; traffic light, stop sign, etc. I can feel a hard jerk. I believe it's the transmission shifting to a lower gear but i'm not for certain. The hard jerk doesn't happen too often maybe once a day, but when it does it's very noticeable. I'm concerned this is causing additional stress and fatigue to my transmission and something will either snap or break.
