The telematics display / unit displays errors and will freeze. If the driver has adjusted the volume, it may not work. They may try to do this several times not realizing that the radio is lagging. The volume will quickly ramp several moments later and could surprise a driver and cause loss of control. In addition, the on-screen navigation screen can freeze up and the applications appear to resize and freeze. It's possible that somebody may make an unsafe maneuver as a result of the delay or inconsistent presentation of direction. The problem has been seen three times at my local Ram dealership. They have been unable to remediate the issue. There are no prior warnings to the issue happening and no direct way to reproduce them or see if it will happen again. It has been happening on my vehicle since approximately February of 2022.

I noticed that all four shocks on my 2022 Ram Longhorn limited edition with factory air ride suspension are leaking fluid from around the piston head. I have tried to get the problem fixed but have not been able to find OEM shocks or even aftermarket shocks. I took it my local dealer ship with the recall notice the first one I received ( I have two now) the dealer ship has found only two shocks but they haven't told me which ones ( front or rear). Lithia Jeep, Dodge, of Klamath Falls Oregon knows all about this problem. They don't want to do the recall notices until all the parts are in, plus the bug deflecter on the front of the truck needs to be installed.I have been waiting now for about six months with no word as to how long it's going to take to get some shocks I continue stopping by to see if there is any news about the shocks but nothing yet, I have only about 43 or 44 thousand miles on this truck as it isn't driven that much. I have noticed that the suspension is really getting a hard work out when driving the rear air ride suspension is the only thing that is working on the rear . I am afraid that something else is going to fail or break that's going to cost me thousands of dollars that I don't have. Can't someone look into this problem.
