I have a complaint that needs to be addressed. On Sept. 11 2025 I had a fire in the cab of my 2016 Ram 3500 truck while it was sitting in my drive way. It was not even running. The fire was not very big and it could have been repaired. So I called FCA and opened a case with them. They informed me that I needed to bring my truck into the closest dealership so that it could be inspected. So I then called and set up and appt for Sept. 12, 2025. I had my truck towed to the dealership and upon arrival my husband who took the truck was told to take it off the trailer. So they took it off the trailer. They informed me that a woman went to the truck, opened the door and stated “ well that’s a gonna be a total loss,” closed the door and had told them to move it to the fence line. She then stated that there was nothing that y’all could do for us and that it would cost me $350.00 to be diagnosed. At this time she already knew that I had an open case with FCA and that I was told to take it in. Upon walking to the truck when my husband opened the door and it had caught fire again. So he went and told some employees in the service dept and they ran out to the truck and disconnected the batteries. Then we were told that we needed to take it off the lot if we weren’t going to pay. So they reconnected the batteries and we put the truck back on the trailer and brought it home. The next day my truck was completely engulfed in flames along with my husbands welder which is used for our business. I called FCA back on Monday and spoke with my case manager/inspector and let them know about the two fires after the first and he stated he would be going to inspect the following day. He then asked if the truck was at the dealership and if the batteries had been disconnected by your employees. I stated no the truck is here at my home and the batteries were reconnected so that we could tow it out of the dealership since that’s what we were told to do. I have told the dealership and no response

On Sept. 11, 2025 my truck parked in my drive way. It was parked there all night. When I opened the doors to get in smoke and flames started coming out. The center console was on fire. The next day on Sept. 12, 2025 while at the dealership to have the truck inspected it caught fire again further burning the center console, the passenger seat and the roof. The dealership told us there is nothing they could do so we had to have the truck towed back to my home. Sunday night on Sept. 14,2025, I heard a loud pop noise and when I walked outside the entire cab of the truck was engulfed in flames. We had to call the fire department and they had to come put the fire out. Each of the incidences started spontaneously when the truck was just sitting parked.

The parking brake issue per recall was supposedly done based on information from safetycar. Vehicle can not be shut off unless in park. I'm assuming a safety feature. A few times when I attempted to shut off,even though clearly in park. Truck wouldn't do so. I shifted back into gear and then back into park with foot on brake as required. Unless I have a horse trailer hooked up, I usually don't engage parking brake if on relatively flat surface. Last week I came out to find my truck still in park had rolled forward and got caught on a large boulder before potentially rolling all the way down into a creek and pond. The boulder did do undercarriage damage mostly to brackets for bumper and spoiler. When I got in truck IT WAS STILL IN PARK. Truck started without me stepping on brake as required. Then after it started,I couldn't put it into gear. Was like shifter was locked. I tried to shut it off it wouldn't shutoff until I applied brake. I started it again with foot on brake and then I was able to shift into reverse and drive. Something is definitely wrong with the park on truck. It rolls forward now a few inches when parked and shut off in park. It will start sometimes without foot on brake and sometimes not. Since it rolled and hit rock steering feels weird. Prior to vehicle rolling and the bogus drag link fix, I have gone through tires because you can't do a full alignment. Dealership claims there's no new fix. They just won't do it right. Just like park brake issue it's not fixed right. Dealerships also claim they know nothing about a new issue and another fix. There are kids around horse farm truck coming out of gear,even though it said park,could have been a fatal accident. This truck has turned into a death trap waiting to happen and Stellantis and FCA won't acknowledge. I have to pay for a fix when it's their issue. THE 67A update has cost me over $12,000 already. THIS TRUCK SHOULD BE BOUGHT BACK BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. PARK BRAKE APPLIED ALWAYS.

After spending $250 to Dodge dealer in Oxnard Service department for them to tell me exactly what it said on the truck code DEF pump needed replacing, I decided I didn't want to spend an extra $1000 for the dealer to fix it ($3900 they wanted for this job). On 11/16/22, I paid ($2865.81) to a reputable diesel mechanic to replace the pump. I was denied the reimbursement that was promised in the recall information. I need help with this! I pay $1200/ month for truck and insurance, but Ram can't reimburse me for a recall I paid out of pocket for, as promised. ABSOLUTE CROOKS! I want help with this.

I am writing to report an ongoing issue with my 2016 Ram 3500 (V6), related to Safety Recall V06 (NHTSA 19V-021) for the drag link, which was performed in 2020 before I purchased the vehicle two years ago. The recall "fix" involved welding the adjustable nuts on the steering linkage, rendering it non-adjustable. Since then, I have been unable to get a proper front-end alignment at any service shop. Multiple mechanics have refused to perform an alignment because the welded drag link cannot be adjusted, and they’ve stated it compromises the vehicle's steering integrity and tire wear. This is a significant safety concern. Without the ability to align the front end, the vehicle’s handling is affected, potentially leading to uneven tire wear, reduced control, or worse, a steering-related failure. I’ve contacted dealerships and Chrysler (FCA US LLC), but they insist the recall was completed and offer no further remedy, despite the fact that this weld does not allow for standard maintenance. New Ram 3500s off the assembly line come with adjustable drag links, not welded ones, which proves this was a poor fix for a safety issue. I urge the NHTSA to revisit this recall and require Chrysler to replace the defective drag link with a proper, adjustable component, rather than leaving owners like me with a substandard repair that hinders basic vehicle maintenance and safety. I purchased this truck in good faith, but this unresolved issue has made it a liability. Please investigate and address this matter before it leads to more serious consequences.

" The Hydraulic Control Unit Chrysler part number 68143491AA failed and been replaced multiply times on my vehicle. I have the current failed part available for inspection upon request. This causes the Anti-lock braking system, Traction control system, Park Assist and Cruise Control to no longer function properly. This puts the driver and others at risk. Lights came on while the truck was not in motion and was just started. Lights first came on 9-2-24 and have been on and off since then. The problem has been reproduced by my local dealer twice both with the original part and its' replacements. The vehicle/component has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. There were no Warning lamps/messaged before failure only after. These would be ABS lamp and traction control lamp plus a service ABS and electronic braking system warning message.

I purchased this vehicle new in 2016. It currently has approximately 49,000 miles. It has never been involved in any collision. In Feb. 2023 I took it to a Les Schwab Tire Center to have the drag link replaced & alignment done. When the repairs were completed the technician informed me that I may have a rear axle misalignment as he noticed the rear axle appeared to have shifted to the right of the vehicle & recommended taking it to a collision repair shop for further inspection. My next move was taking it to an independent shop & have the rear leaf springs inspected for correct alignment which found nothing abnormal but they also measured from the center of the front wheel to the center of the rear wheel on both sides of the vehicle and found a difference in measurement of approximately 3/4". They had me drive the vehicle down the road as they followed & verified the rear of the truck was tracking to the right. I then proceeded to take it to a Ram Dealer repair shop for inspection & concluded that the rear of the truck was tracking to the right but that they were not equipped to make corrections & recommended taking it to a collision repair shop. I then proceeded with a collision repair shop where they put it on a rack & took measurements of the frame & only found a slight abnormal condition in the frame on the right side in front of the rear axle but concluded that they did not believe it would be was causing the issue. So the issue I have is rear of the truck is tracking to the right. I never knew there was an issue with the truck before I took it to Les Schwab for its first alignment.

If I pulled over when this would happen and turned the truck all the way off and then back on it take the light of the dash and shift properly. So the dealership calls me to let me know what they have found he says he has bad news and more bad news which was my transmission was going out and then they didn't have a transmission and had no idea when they would.

On February 3, 2022 I had my truck serviced at my local dealership to address SAFETY RECALL Y26. According to the service manager, the work was completed per the Safety Recall instructions. On Feb 22, 2022 while traveling at highway speed, all eight wheel studs broke on the left rear dually wheels which led to the wheel/tires separating from the vehicle without warning. This catastrophic failure could have caused serious injury, or death to the occupants of the vehicle, as well as other motorists/pedestrians. It was by the GRACE OF GOD the driver was able to maintain control of the vehicle until it was safely off the highway. The vehicle was transported by a flatbed wrecker to a dealership near the final destination it was en-route to, to inspect the damage and make all necessary repairs. Both the dealership that performed, the SAFETY RECALL Y26 in Raleigh, NC and the dealer in Ocala, FL that currently has possession of the truck have confirmed the cause of this catastrophic failure is YIELDED WHEEL STUDS. Consumer is requesting a recall investigation of the previously announced Recall Y26 and adjustment of existing recall remedies. Consumer has requested the return of all damaged parts from the vehicle from the dealership that is in possession of the vehicle and performing the Safety Recall repairs.

THIS IS THE WAY THE VEHICLE CAME FROM DODGE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IF I WOULD HAVE TO USE THE DIFFERENT SIZE SPARE, ESPECIALLY PULLING A 40FT. 5TH WHEEL CAMPER.

MY 2016 RAM 3500 DRW LIMITED LEANS TO THE RIGHT APPROXIMATELY 3/4 INCH. WHEN I PLACE MY TRUCK CAMPER ON TOP, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG/SENSOR DOES NOT RISE EQUALLY WITH THE LEFT. AS A RESULT, I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH AN APPROXIMATE 2 INCH LEAN TO THE RIGHT. I DID NOT NOTICE THE TRUCK LEANS TO THE RIGHT UNTIL I PURCHASED A TRUCK CAMPER 3 MONTHS AGO. I TOOK IT TO RAM, THEY PUT IT ON A COMPUTER TO TRY AND ADJUST THE SETTINGS. IT DID NOT WORK. APPARENTLY, ONLY A FEW RAM MECHANICS IN THE US UNDERSTAND THE SYSTEM AND CAN FIX MY ISSUE. I'M MORE THAN HAPPY TO GO ANYWHERE TO FIX MY ISSUE. APPARENTLY, THERE IS NO TECHNICAL BULLETIN TO FIX MY ISSUE. I UNDERSTAND PLACING A CAMPER ON TOP OF THE TRUCK IS A MODIFICATION TO THE TRUCK. BUT, THESE TRUCKS ARE MARKETED BY RAM TO SUPPORT THE RV INDUSTRY. SO, THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET MY REAR CALIBRATED CLOSE TO ZERO. WHY CAN'T RAM WORK WITH THE LOCAL DEALER TO FIX MY ISSUE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING ON THE ROAD WITH THE TRUCK LEANING TO RIGHT AT 13,495 LBS GVW. (GVWR=14K). CAN YOU HELP TO CONNECT WITH RAM TO ASK THEM TO HELP FIX MY ISSUE? *TR
