I am submitting this formal safety complaint regarding my 2025 RAM 1500 Limited, which I purchased new in November 2024 and currently with approximately 9,000 miles. The vehicle has exhibited repeated, dangerous failures of its advanced driver assistance and braking systems that place both the driver and public at serious risk. Summary of Safety Incidents: First Incident: While driving at approximately 35 mph, the vehicle abruptly and uncommandedly stopped, with no driver input. Fortunately, there were no vehicles behind me at the time, or this could have resulted in a high-speed rear-end collision. Second Incident: Roughly 400 miles later, while stopped at a traffic light, the vehicle displayed multiple warning alerts and shut itself off completely. Upon restarting and driving approximately 50 yards, the braking system failed for about five seconds, rendering the truck unable to stop. This failure was later replicated by the authorized dealership’s service team, who then informed me that the vehicle’s CPU had failed during repair attempts. The vehicle has now been out of service for over 50 days, and the dealer has returned it to me twice in an unsafe condition. Stellantis, the vehicle manufacturer, has acknowledged the problem but has not provided a resolution.

I was also told by the Service Manager at Greenville Chrysler if they can't duplicate the issue they are going to release the vehicle.

I checked on-line and found a recall for this notice, but my truck was not part of the recall. I called FCA and was told my truck is not part of the recall. I went to my dealer and showed them, and was told my truck is not part of this recall, and they can't do anything until it is. I asked how do I get on the recall list? Both the 800 number I called and the dealership said we don't know. I hope this gets me on the recall list for FCA Recall ID 30 Campaign Number 25V-231 Thanks

Purchase truck and noticed on test drive steering wheel was off centered to the right by about 10-15 degrees.When Lane Assist was activated truck would drift right only to be alerted by the assist which would over correct steering to the left side of the lane.Lane Assist would just continue this effort to keep truck center.Truck has been aligned twice already and steering is still off centered to right.Back again to different dealership and tech ran EPS Flash and ran a steering angle calibration on EPS.Still not correct.Stored code was found as well C121A-00 Steering Angle Sensor not Initialized.Will continue working with dealerships till a solution has been found by engineering at RAM.I wish RAM would put this on a high priority fix, because I cannot use my Lane Assist safety feature.Due to steering issue..

Daily drive female, no offroad use or work use, no accidents. 1500 miles now on the odo. Problem from day one. Intend to take to dealer soon but wanted to make report especially there are other users complaints online and it is a serious matter. Several times almost lost control.

This has occurred twice in the last 2-3 months. I was at a 2-way stop and after I stopped and started to pull into a cross-traffic opening, the transmission seemed to disengage momentarily (for approximately 1-2 seconds) leaving me unable to accelerate out of the way of oncoming traffic which causes the other drivers to rapidly close the distance between themselves and my vehicle before the transmission will unexpectedly re-engage causing a sudden rather violent jerk of the entire vehicle. The jerking was so violent and the other vehicle so close that I pulled over in one of the instances to verify that I hadn't been actually rear-ended. As I stated above, the problem has already occurred twice. No, the dealer has not yet evaluated the situation. I plan to take it into the dealer next week and mention the issue. No, the vehicle has not yet been inspected by the manufacturer or others listed. In neither case was there any warning lamps or messages. The "additional Details" below are for the most recent event.
