WHEN I AM APPROACHING A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, I APPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES. AS THE VEHICLE IS COMING TO A STOP, IT SOMETIMES LUNGES FORWARD UNEXPECTEDLY AS IF I HAVE BEEN REAR-ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO TWO SEPARATE DEALERSHIPS FOR THIS HAZARDOUS CONDITION. BOTH TIMES THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM EXISTS. BOTH TIMES THEY UPDATED THE COMPUTER AND CLAIMED IT WAS FIXED. BOTH TIMES THEY WERE WRONG. THE VEHICLE STILL LUNGES FORWARD OCCASIONALLY WHEN COMING TO A STOP. I SPOKE TO THE COMPANY'S CUSTOMER CARE REPRESENTATIVE. THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVE THEM CHECK IT A THIRD TIME. I HAVE NO FAITH IN THE DEALERSHIP AFTER TWICE TAKING IT IN WITH NO RESOLUTION. IT ALSO COSTS ME TIME AND MONEY TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP JUST TO HAVE THEM TELL ME THE PROBLEM IS FIXED WHEN IT IS NOT. MY WARRANTY WILL EXPIRE SOON, AND I BELIEVE THEY ARE JUST TRYING TO RUN OUT THE CLOCK. IN ADDITION TO THE DANGER THAT THIS PLACES MY FAMILY IN, IT WILL ALSO CAUSE EXPENSIVE PARTS TO NEED REPLACEMENT PREMATURELY. I JUST WANT A SAFE VEHICLE TO DRIVE THAT IS MADE BY A COMPANY THAT WILL HONOR ITS WARRANTY.

I HAVE A 2016 RAM 1500, CREW CAB, 4X4 WITH 20K MILES. I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW AND HAVE IT SERVICED AT THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM. FOR ABOUT THE PAST 4 WEEKS, I HAVE NOTICED A HARD DOWNSHIFT WHEN APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN IN MY 2016 RAM 1500. I HAVE BROUGHT IT IN TO MY PURCHASING CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND THIS IS WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN TOLD. 'FCA ENGINEERING IS AWARE OF A 2ND-1ST DOWNSHIFT BUMP CONCERN AND IS GATHERING INFORMATION ON THE SHIFTING CONCERN. FOR NOW, THEY HAVE DEEMED THIS SHIFT AS AN OPERATING CHARACTERISTIC.' TO HAVE A VEHICLE 3 YEARS OLD AND 20K MILES, AND SAYING I HAVE TO ACCEPT THIS TRANSMISSION ISSUE IS UNACCEPTABLE. IF THIS IS HOW IT IS GOING TO BE, FCA WILL NOT BE GETTING ANY MORE OF MY BUSINESS.
