This vehicle received the 03D/NHTSA 26V-059 Trailer Controller replacement on 3/26/2026. Prior to that there were no indications of any trailer-related issues. It also received the 35D/NHTSA 26V-225 Instrument Panel update on 5/12/2026. The vehicle now is indicating a connected trailer with faulty wiring when no trailer is connected at all. When towing a trailer, the instrument will similarly display a recurring indication of a faulty trailer wiring, then the error disappears shortly thereafter. The dealer has been unable to diagnose the problem. It appears that Stellantis has a Case # S2623000029 which indicates a similar concern with Code B235C-64 set in the Integrated Trailer Module. This concern mentions a possible "service update" for the "3rd quarter of 2026" but the dealer is unable to confirm any timeline and is uninterested in pursuing further diagnostics. They admit the trouble codes are verified in the device database. This is a safety issue due to the fact that the vehicle notifications, while towing a load, appear to be false but can cause the vehicle operator to attempt corrections such as immediately stopping while in traffic lanes to confirm the problem. This is very risky business as is continuing on with a potential trailer electrical fault. One really doesn't know what to believe in this circumstance. In my opinion, the replacement trailer controller installed via the first recall stated above is more faulty then the original controller, which never yielded false information.

After two very near accidents and other close calls my truck never warned or brakes. The dealer said no codes nothing they can do. I read after a safety recall was done the modules stop communicating and a hard reset and flash should be performed.

My 2025 Ram 1500 has less than 500 miles and in the 4 days of ownership it has completely shut down twice when accelerating from a stopped position. In both incidents, the vehicle was stopped and became completely unresponsive when I attempted to accelerate, resulting in an unexpected loss of motive power. The vehicle is currently being retained by the Ram dealership. The dealership advised that Ram is aware of the issue but does not currently have a repair or remedy available. This creates a serious safety risk when entering or crossing traffic. The problem has occurred twice under substantially the same conditions.

2025 Ram 1500 Tungsten with High Output Hurricane 3.0L twin-turbo I6. The vehicle has experienced repeated battery failures resulting in a complete loss of electrical power. Both the main and auxiliary batteries have been replaced under warranty three separate times: 5/14/2025 at 839 miles 12/11/2025 at 4,557 miles 6/19/2026 at 7,851 miles Most recently, I drove the truck to work normally in the morning. Approximately 8-10 hours later, when I attempted to leave work, the vehicle was completely dead. The power door locks would not function, the dome lights would not illuminate, and the instrument cluster would not power on. The vehicle required a jump start to be loaded onto a tow truck. The exact cause has not been identified. The dealer determined that both the main and auxiliary batteries failed testing and replaced both batteries. A parasitic draw test was performed during the most recent repair, and the dealer reported that no abnormal draw was found. Safety concern: The vehicle became completely disabled without warning and could not be started or moved under its own power. A similar failure occurring in an unsafe location, during travel, or during an emergency could leave occupants stranded. The vehicle has been inspected by an authorized Ram dealer on three separate occasions. No root cause has been identified. There were no warning lights, warning messages, or noticeable symptoms prior to the most recent failure. The truck operated normally when driven to work and was completely inoperative later that same day.

Vehicle loses communication with the cluster. I’ve been dealing with this issue with the dealer. They have no way of fixing it. They have changed the instrument cluster and still have the problem. It just goes black when I’m driving so I have no speedometer no gauges or anything the truck has been in the shop for 15 times I’ve only owned the truck for 13 months. The dealership said my truck should be bought back because they can’t figure out what’s wrong with the cluster stellantis and ram cutter have tried to pay me off three×1st time was for 6500 second time was for 9000 the third time for 15,000. They know they have an issue and they won’t buy the Truck back. I’m afraid that it’s gonna cause me an accident. I’ve owned multiple ram trucks before none of them had any problems like this
