I WAS DRIVING ON I94 EASTBOUND HIGHWAY, I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW DOWN FOR TRAFFIC THEN ACCELERATED AND THE TRUCK ACCELERATED AT FULL DOWNPOWER. I LIFTED MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR, BUT THE PEDAL STAYED ON THE FLOOR AND THE TRUCK KEPT ACCELERATING. I GOT UP TO 105MPH IN NO TIME AT ALL, THEN PRESSING ON THE BRAKES AS HARD AS I POSSIBLY COULD SO I DIDN'T HIT THE VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME. THIS SLOWED ME DOWN TO ABOUT 60MPH SLOWING THE TRUCK DOWN ENOUGH TO MOVE FROM THE FAR LEFT LANE TO THE FAR RIGHT SHOULDER, WITH THE TRUCK STILL AT 5K PLUS RPMS, I THEN WAS ABLE TO PUT THE TRUCK IN NEUTRAL USING THE SHIFTER KNOB. THE VEHICLE THEN DISPLAYED THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD. DURING THIS WHOLE TIME THE ACCELERATOR WAS ON THE FLOOR AND THE TRUCK WAS TRYING TO OUT POWER THE BRAKES. I THEN POWERED OFF THE VEHICLE ENTIRELY. I WAS THEN ATTEMPTING TO RESTART THE VEHICLE TO GET MYSELF OFF THE UNSAFE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY AND THE THROTTLE WAS STILL STUCK TO THE FLOOR AND WAS TICKING WITH ERROR CODES READING ON THE DASHBOARD. I THEN TURNED THE KEY BACK TO THE OFF POSITION AND HAD TO WAIT OVER A MINUTE IN ORDER FOR THE TRUCK TO START SO I COULD GET OFF OF THE UNSAFE SHOULDER. THIS IS A HUGE CONCERN AND I HAVE STOCK FLOOR MATS IN MY VEHICLE. COMPONENT THAT FAILED WAS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL SYSTEM. TOOK TO CHRYSLER DEALER STATED NOTHING WRONG WITH VEHICLE. I HAVE VIDEO PROOF!*DT*JB

VEHICLE HAS ADJUSTABLE HEIGHT GAS PEDAL AND FACTORY FLOOR MATS PROPERLY INSTALLED. AFTER NEAR-MISS ACCIDENT I FOUND THE GAS PEDAL STUCK DOWN ON A VERTICAL RIB OF THE FLOOR MAT. PICTURES ATTACHED. WHEN PEDAL HEIGHT IS ADJUSTED FULL UP OR FULL DOWN IT CAN NOT REACH FLOOR MAT. WHEN ADJUSTED MID RANGE THOUGH, THE PEDAL CAN REACH THE FLOOR MAT AND STICK TO THE TOP OF THE FAR RIGHT HAND RIB. I WAS PULLING AWAY FROM A 4-WAY STOP GOING STRAIGHT WHEN THE 395HP VEHICLE MAINTAINED VIOLENT ACCELERATION. PRESSING THE BRAKE I BELIEVE STOPPED THE VIOLENT ACCELERATION OR DECREASED IT SIGNIFICANTLY. I NEEDED TO TOUCH THE PEDAL AGAIN TO GET TO A SAFE PLACE AND AGAIN JUST TOUCHING IT CAUSED VIOLENT ACCELERATION. REGAINED CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND PULLED OVER AND FOUND THE PEDAL STUCK TO THE TOP OF THE RIB. WAS A FEW BLOCKS FROM WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE A FEW DAYS BEFORE. THEIR RESOLUTION WAS TO CONFISCATE MY FLOOR MAT AND FOR ME TO GO TO A PARTS STORE TO BUY A NEW ONE FOR MY $45,000 VEHICLE.

SAME THING WHEN DRIVING FORWARD, FORWARD COLLISION WARNING AUTO BRAKES WHEN NOTHING AT ALL IS THERE, ALMOST RESULTING IN BEING REAR ENDED AT LEAST TWICE BEFORE I TURNED IT OFF.. AT LEAST I AM ABLE TO TURN IT OFF. I KEPT THE WARNING ON, AND IT GOES OFF ALL THE TIME WHEN I CROSS SPEED BUMPS OR SHADOWS FROM OVERPASSES. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND CONTINUES AFTER TSBS THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO ADDRESS. ANOTHER KNOWN ISSUE THAT RAM ISNT ADDRESSING PUBLICLY IS BRAKE SQUEALING - THERE IS AN INTERNAL MEMO ABOUT IT, BUT DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT ADDRESSING IT - IT HAPPENS WHEN YOU BREAK LIGHTLY TO SLOW DOWN BETWEEN 70-40 MPH, BUT THEY CAN NEVER SEEM TO REPRODUCE IT AT THE DEALER. I OPENED A CASE WITH RAM AND THEY HAVE DONE ANYTHING OTHER THAN WHAT THE DEALER DID...I AM MOST WORRIED ABOUT THE SAFETY FEATURES CAUSING AN ACCIDENT, PLEASE HELP! LATEST DATE THE FRONT COLLISION WARNING ACTIVATED WHEN NOTHING WAS THERE WAS TODAY. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME.

NHTSA investigations
1EA23001 · High Pressure Fuel Pump Failure
Opened Mar 17, 2023 · No close date supplied
Status: open (inferred from source dates) · Fuel System, Diesel:delivery:fuel Pump
The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened PE21-021 on October 14, 2021, to investigate incidents alleging a stall/loss of motive power as a result of high-pressure fuel pump failures in certain model year (MY) 2019-2020 Ram 2500, 3500, 4500, and 5500 heavy duty trucks equipped with 6.7L Cummins turbodiesel engines. During the investigation, ODI sought to determine if the related defect allegation was limited in scope to the recalled population. After review of information request response materials from both FCA and BMW, NHTSA determined that sufficient information to identify a comprehensive recall population could not be produced by FCA and BMW.During the investigation FCA filed recalls 22V406, 22E048, 22V767, and 22E087 which include vehicles not identified in the initial subject population by ODI. ODI also received recall 21V586, involving loss of motive power due to failed CP4 fuel pumps on certain BMW manufactured vehicles. An information request letter response received from BMW indicated that failed pumps on their vehicles were caused by an interaction between pump internal components and US market diesel fuel, leading to increased slip and eventual particle-generating wear surface. Additional work will be done to identify whether a similar root cause is associated with the FCA recalled population and if similar wear dynamics occur on pumps supplied to vehicle manufacturers other than those included in the recalled population.ODI has upgraded this investigation to an EA in order to 1) determine engineering specifications of internal pump components that are correlated with pump failure leading to loss of motive power or other safety related hazards, 2) identify vehicle populations equipped with alleged defective pump variants, 3) assess if vehicles equipped with alleged defective pump variants result in an unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety and 4) gather and review any other relevant information related to high pressure fuel pump failure associated with the subject populations of recalls 21V586, 21V880, 21E094, 22V406, 22E048, 22V767, and 22E087.Review of the above information will allow NHTSA to confirm root cause and recall remedy viability, and identify and evaluate vehicle populations equipped with pump components that may pose an unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety.The ODI reports cited above can be reviewed at: http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/owners/SearchNHTSAID using the following complaint identification numbers: 11257550, 11351441, 11361603, 11361616, 11365300, 11365426, 11365858, 11366401, 11372337, 11373793, 11374797, 11376793, 11377871, 11378173, 11384377, 11386063, 11387018, 11399710, 11402550, 11415339, 11418868, 11418870, 11427075, 11434276, 11436807, 11437226, 11437249, 11437273, 11437292, 11437294, 11437394, 11437399, 11437403, 11437405, 11437423, 11437528, 11437565, 11437579, 11437580, 11437590, 11437679, 11437744, 11437781, 11437842, 11437993, 11438006, 11438008, 11438121, 11438138, 11438155, 11438392, 11438629, 11439359, 11439879, 11440397, 11443030, 11446542, 11448163, 11453556, 11458918, 11460558, 11469337
