Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Note: Owners are advised to stop using cruise control until the software update has been performed.

Recall Date: Dec 20, 2017
Safety Issue:

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Ram 3500 Cab Chassis with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of less than 10,000 lbs, 2011-2017 Ram 3500, 4500 and 5500 Cab Chassis vehicles, 2009-2017 Ram 1500 and 2010-2017 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickup trucks, all equipped with a column shifter.

Potential Risk:
Being able to shift the transmission without pushing the brake pedal and/or without a key in the ignition can increase the risk of an unintended vehicle rollaway that may result in personal injury or a crash.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

28 DEGREES F THIS MORNING. I STARTED TRUCK AND LET IT WARM UP FOR 5 MIN. DISENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKE, PUT IT IN DRIVE. AS I STARTED TO MOVE (3) ERROR MESSAGES CAME UP ON DASH: SERVICE SHIFTER, SERVICE TRANSMISSION, SERVICE THROTTLE CONTROL. I STOPPED TRUCK, TURNED IT OFF AND THEN STARTED IT AGAIN. NO ERROR CODES; ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ON. I DROVE TO WORK 2.5 MILES AWAY. I HAD TO STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND ENGINE JUST TURNED OFF. DASH BOARD WAS FLICKERING. I PUT TRUCK IN PARK, TURNED KEY OFF AND THEN TRIED TO RESTART TRUCK. NOTHING, LIGHTS STILL FLICKERING ON DASH. I TRIED TO PUT ON HAZARD LIGHTS BUT NO POWER TO THEM. I TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO RESTART TRUCK BUT TO NO AVAIL. AT SOME POINT IT WOULDN'T EVEN LET ME TURN THE KEY TO OFF. IT WAS STUCK IN THE "ACCESSORY" POSITION. I DID CATCH AN ERROR MESSAGE ON THE DASHBOARD THAT SAID "NO BUS". IF I WAS MOVING WHEN TRUCK SHUT DOWN I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN INTO AN ACCIDENT; NO POWER BRAKES OR STEERING. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES SITTING AT TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS STOPPED FLICKERING AND THE TRUCK APPEARED TO RESET ITSELF. AT THIS POINT I WAS ABLE TO START THE TRUCK AND GET TO WORK. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN IN FOUR TIMES FOR "SERVICE SHIFTER" ERROR. ON THREE OF THE VISITS THE DEALER LOADED NEW SOFTWARE INTO THE TRUCK TO ADDRESS THIS AND A FEW RECALLS. THE LAST VISIT (3) WEEKS AGO THE SOFTWARE WAS CHANGED SO IF THE TRUCK IS NOT IN PARK, THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS OPEN, TRUCK IS IN GEAR, AND THE DRIVER'S FOOT IS NOT PRESSING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL THE COMPUTER WILL PUT TRUCK IN PARK THEY ALSO REPLACED THE ROTARY SHIFTER SWITCH. SINCE THAT TIME THE SERVICE TRANSMISSION, SERVICE SHIFTER AND SERVICE THROTTLE CONTROL ERROR STARTED AND HAS APPEARED THREE TIMES. 2016 RAM EXPRESS 1500 WAS BOUGHT NEW IN JULY 2017 AND HAS 15,400 MILES ON IT.

WHEN THEY REFUSED TO PROVIDE ME WITH A COPY OF THE REPORT, I HIRED MY ON INVESTIGATOR TO DOWNLOAD THE INFORMATION FROM THE COMPUTER. MY INVESTIGATOR FOUND THAT CHRYSLER'S REPORT WAS 100% INCORRECT. HIS REPORT STATES THAT I WAS TRAVELING AROUND 60MPH AND THE AIRBAGS FAILED. HE EVEN PROVIDED PHOTOS OF THE STEERING COLUMN THAT SHOWS THE AIRBAGS TRIED TO DEPLOY BUT FAILED. CHRYSLER HAS REFUSED TO CONTACT MY INVESTIGATOR AND HAS ADVISED ME TO STOP CALLING ABOUT THIS ISSUE BECAUSE THEY HAVE CLOSED THE CASE. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE OKLAHOMA ATTORNEY GENERALS (CASE # CC-18-1759) WHICH WAS TRANSFERRED TO YOUR OFFICE ON 10-23-2018.

Additional Notes:

I WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONT END COLLISION ON 4-23-2018. AT 60MPH, MY AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER (CASE# 33961416). THEY SENT AN INVESTIGATOR TO DOWNLOAD THE INFORMATION FROM THE COMPUTER. THE INVESTIGATOR REPORTED THAT THE AIRBAGS WAS WORKING AT THE TIME OF THE COLLISION AND THAT I WAS NOT TRAVELING FAST ENOUGH FOR IT TO DEPLOY. WHEN THEY REFUSED TO PROVIDE ME WITH A COPY OF THE REPORT, I HIRED MY ON INVESTIGATOR TO DOWNLOAD THE INFORMATION FROM THE COMPUTER. MY INVESTIGATOR FOUND THAT CHRYSLER'S REPORT WAS 100% INCORRECT. HIS REPORT STATES THAT I WAS TRAVELING AROUND 60MPH AND THE AIRBAGS FAILED. HE EVEN PROVIDED PHOTOS OF THE STEERING COLUMN THAT SHOWS THE AIRBAGS TRIED TO DEPLOY BUT FAILED.

Defect Description:

VISIBILITY/WIPER

Potential Consequences:

ATTEMPTED TO ROLL DOWN DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW IN MY 2016 RAM 1500 CREW CAB SPORT. THE WINDOW DIDN'T MOVE BUT MADE A SOUND LIKE IT WAS FROZEN. I LEFT THE HEAT ON HIGH WHILE DRIVEN IN AN ATTEMPT TO DEFROST THE WINDOW. % MINUTES LATER THE WINDOW SUDDENLY DROPPED HALF WAY DOWN INTO THE DOOR AND WOULD NOT GO COMPLETELY BACK UP. I ALMOST WRECKED THE TRUCK AS IT SCARED ME AND WAS VERY LOUD. I HAD TO BRING THE TRUCK BACK TO THE DEALER TO HAVE REATTACH THE WINDOW TO THE CHEAP PLASTIC CLIPS THAT IT SEPERATED FROM. UPON FURTHER REVIEW ON GOOGLE, IT'S NOTICED THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. RAM NEEDS TO DO A RECALL ON THIS AND FIX THE CHEAP PLASTIC CLIPS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJUSRED OR CAUSES A FATALITY THROUGH A BAD WRECK.
