Win module. The win module in my truck is failing. This causes intermittent no start and also the engine will suddenly stop running while in motion. This usually happens with a bump in the road and has happened while pulling out of a driveway into traffic. There are many complaints on the web for this issue.

Speed about 20 MPH with no throttle, power steering and brakes stopped working. A few seconds later the steering and brakes worked again. If the steering and brakes did not start working again this could have caused the vehicle to crash into another motorist.this is not the first time this has happened.

Driving on freeway 55 MPH towing heavy duty concrete trailer ( 2 axle 4 yard w/rear mounted mixer) and truck violently started shaking bad , leaving me with no control . Have invested over$1000 in parts alone, with no luck. Now am replacing all tie rods and ball joints $500 (parts alone), to see what happens. Though I have read there is no fix??? Cant sell it cuz I owe 36,000 and it is only worth 25,000. I am 3 months behind on payments cuz I need truck for work to make money, but has been in shop (unrelated would not start) for 3 weeks and $1300 more dollars, for some fuel module b.s. And my finance company wants to know where their money is, and what is wrong with the truck? So I ask them which month they would like to know about. These trucks are garbage!!!! Never buy dodge ( probably why they changed name of trucks to "ram") some legal mambo jumbo to save their ass. And the government bailed them out for what???? What brought me here was a search for tie rods, cause I believe that to be my problem. After reading all the complaints about tie rods breaking, I will now replace all tie rods on my own dime, because my life is worth more than $1000 dollars of parts. There is definitely something being covered up. Why in the hell can dealers only get 15 parts (b.s.) a month, but I can go ebay, amazon, (which I am by the way) and have them in a couple days. Cause I am paying for them? Is chrysler that broke ? Crappy products, crappy design, and guess what, no accountability. Recipe for disaster if you ask me. Up yours dodge , ram, chrysler, whatever name your hiding behind this month.!!!

My truck would not crank over when I went to drive it. Dodge dealership has had it over a week and thought it was the tipm module. The got one 4 days later and now it wont allow programming so it is still not fixed and I am left without a truck while they learn how to fix it at my expense. So far I have been quoted $920 for the part and $260 for the labor. The service manager said he would take the master mechanic from the fleet department to start another diagnosis process.

I purchased a 2012 ram truck from melloy dodge with 14,000 miles on it. I haven't even had it a year and it was a top of the line truck. So, it is still under factory warranty plus they sold me an extended platinum warranty. A couple weeks ago, I went to get in my truck in the morning and it was completely dead and would not start. I immediately called the dealership and they towed the truck to the dealership. The power module went out on the truck. The service writer then called me to say there was a scratch on one of the posts under the engine so the repair would not be covered under warranty and I must pay it out of pocket. I never did anything to that truck. I woke up and it was completely dead. The dealer found any excuse to get out of covering the repair under warranty. Plus, I purchased the truck from them used. The scratch on the post was probably there all along. They looked for a reason to get out of covering the truck under warranty. I have never had to deal with such dishonest, unethical people. This is not acceptable or fair. It is dishonest. I am very upset I had to pay an almost $1000 repair due to this. They should not be allowed to get by with treating customers like this and being dishonest in the way they deal with customers. I did try to contact them to resolve this to no avail. I wonder if next time I have a repair, if they will find a bogus excuse to get out of honoring their warranty and double platinum top of the line warranty. This is unacceptable! What good is a warranty?
