I own a 2007 dodge ram 1500 4.7l qc. Purchased new. I have had numerous incidents where the vehicle has shut off when braking upbruptly to a stop. At times while stopped, the truck idles high and the truck surges forward then shut off completely. I have to put in park and restart the truck. There has been times while in a the middle of a busy intersection when it would die. I have had other cars have to stop or maneuver away from me to avoid collision. It is at the point where I am afraid to drive this in heavy traffic. I have taken to the shop where they said it was a sticky egr valve. But it still continues. The dealership only wants to patch the problem then send you off. I am not suprise there hasnt be a fatally with this issue.
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 dodge ram 1500. On approximately six occasions, while driving at any speed, the vehicle surged forward without warning. The contact has to depress the brake pedal and hold it down. The RPM's increased and the vehicle felt as if it were attempting to get away. The vehicle has to be completely shut off in order for it to stop. The esp indicator also illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle has been to a dealer six times for this failure without any resolution. The current mileage was 26,529 and failure mileage was 4,000. Updated 11/17/08 *cn updated 11/24/08.
With approx. 23,000 miles the oil sensor was faulty. The vehicle was purchased new on dec06. Dealership replaced the sensor free of charge under the warranty. This would have cost a few hundred dollars off warranty. Other 07 dodge owners I have talked to have also had this problem as well.
Transmission problems, looses reverse, makes a grinding noise, makes a loud whine sound when in drive. Oil pressure gauge never moves, cd player skips with new cd disks, radio crackles and stations sound like there far away when they are local.
2006 dodge ram 1500 quad st 3.7l v6 sfi purchased on 9/27/2006 at anniston - lincoln - mercury - dodge in oxford, alabama. The truck had very serious mechanical problems, the engine will just stop with a loud noise, and with a slip in the drivetrain, while driving down the street or will just die at any given time during driving. Such as pulling out in traffic, stopping at a light, driving down the street as it will die at random, but may go two or three days without a problem. *ak we have taken it to the dealer multiple times, but they refuse to fix it as they say that nothing is wrong with it, even though a chip in the engine indicated a problem but did not retain the mechanical information. I didn't argue with them or get upset because I know that is pointless when dealing with I have taking it to the dealer and they wont fix it, they say that nothing is wrong with it. I didn't argue with them or get upset because I know that is pointless when dealing with bureaucracy. I discussed this with a representative at dodge customer assistance who didn't seem to care less about my problem as she stated that dodge stands behind the dealer. (not the product) , which left me speechless, I really can not believe that dodge has sold us a 30,000 dollar+ vehicle and within 6 months it is dying in the middle of the highway at random, the dealer won't fix it and dodge customer assistance stands behind the dealer, without a thought to customer service,the customer or the product. But beyond the incredible abuse I have suffered from this company's unethical business practice, this is a major safety issue as we continue to carry our family of very young children in this vehicle, with our family in danger of being injured or killed in this vehicle as it is liable to die in the road/highway at any time, with the dealer refusing to acknowledge a problem, and to this point the company refuses to stand behind the product or customer.
