2005 Dodge RAM

2005 DODGE RAM 1500 STALLS WHEN MAKING TURNS. THIS STARTED WHEN THE TRUCK HAD ABOUT 12K MILES AND SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. I HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. OF COURSE NOW IT HAS 43K AND IS OUT OF WARRANTY SO I CANNOT AFFORD TO TAKE FOR $100 DIAGNOSTIC EVERYTIME TRUCK STALLS, JUST TO BE TOLD NOTHING IS WRONG. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE STEERING AND BRAKES ARE ALMOST NON EXISTENT WHEN THIS HAPPENS AND IT USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN MAKING A TURN. I JUST HOPE THAT IT DOESN'T HAPPEN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT THIS IS NOT JUST MY TRUCK AND OTHERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. WHY DOES DODGE NOT STEP UP AND CORRECT THE PROBLEM? DOES IT TAKE A DEATH BEFORE THEY DO? *TR

20,000 MILES ON TRUCK. WAS DRIVING APPROX 70MPH ON FREEWAY WHEN TRUCK JUST DIED. ALL DASH LIGHTS CAME ON. PULLED TRUCK OVER AND TURNED IGNITION OFF THEN RESTARTED. TRUCK STARTED BACK UP AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON. WAS LEAVING FOR AIRPORT WITHIN 2 HOURS SO COULDN'T TAKE TO SHOP BEFORE I LEFT. I MADE 2 STOPS (COMPLETELY TURNING OFF IGNITION) BEFORE I LEFT FOR WEEKEND AND EACH TIME I STARTED TRUCK, ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. DROPPED OFF TRUCK ON FOLLOWING MONDAY EVENING AND NOTICED NO MORE ENGINE LIGHT WHEN I STARTED TRUCK. DROVE TO DEALER WITH NO PROBLEMS. DEALER SAID FOUND CODE IN COMPUTER RELATING TO CAM SENSOR. ALSO SAID ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THEY REPLACED CAM SENSOR & ETB AND CHANGED/UPDATED COMPUTER UNDER WARRANTY. SO FAR NO ISSUES...HAVE ONLY PUT ABOUT 200 MILES ON TRUCK SINCE ALL WORK PERFORMED. *TR
