What 1994 Dodge RAM 2500 owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Consumer experienced random episodes of sudden loss of engine and braking power. (nar) *ph
Brake system on dodge ram 2500 causes a dangerous pulling condition. I have nearly been in several accidents when pulling a trailer, as the additional weight causes the pulling condition to become very severe. I feel this is a security risk to myself and other motorists.
After shutting off engine it will continue to run. Dealer cannot remedy the problem.*ak the cause for the engine to continue running after it was turned off was determined by the dealer to be a rusted fuel solenoid. The consumer stated that this defect and the faulty brakes make the vehicle unsafe to drive.
These problems are reaccurring on 3 of our trucks. Brake line break on wet pavement caused loss of control and skid accident.
Brakes are defective. Consumer has contacted dealership.
With engine in idle and applying brakes more than twice, the third time loss of power brakes will occur. Dealer has installed new check valve, but defect keeps occurring. Consumer feels diesel engine does not produce enough vaccum while in idle , 800 rpms. Chrysler has now developed a fix to install a vaccum accumalator at consumer costs.
Braking system worked intermittently. Had brake master cylinder replaced 3 times. Also, electrical problems/headlights going off and on/power windows going up and down, and door locks locking and unlocking while driving. Dodge replaced entire electrical system under warranty. Vehicle has been to dealer 74 times under warranty, dealer can't find cause of problem on brakes.
Ongoing severe problem with vehicle pulling to left when applying brakes. Vehicle taken to an independent repair shop for repairs, but problem still occurring. Please feel free to provide any further details on this matter.
When coming to a normal stop back end hops really bad and pulls to the right. When backing up brakes sometimes will lock up. Stopping distance has increased dramatically with the hopping.
