Purchased the vehicle new, after 10,000 miles driving without any problem I hooked up my truck to my snowmobile trailer to tow it on December 21, 2022 for the first time during the evening hours. I setup my vehicles trailer settings to light duty electric brake settings mode and began pulling my trailer. I just turned left onto the road coming up onto a stop sign going slow the vehicle stalled and the emergency truck brakes turned on and the truck shifted into park. I then placed the truck into Tow mode and got onto the expressway without an issue, when I turned off of the expressway I slowly turned right into a business and the truck stalled, emergency brakes went on and truck went into park. I called La Fontaine dealership whom I purchased the truck from, and they could not inspect it for 1 month. I dropped the truck off to them on Jan 16 and finally was able to pick it back up on the 20th evening. They did not test with a trailer, and I was told that everything was working properly. I opened a case number with Chrysler [XXX] and was told on Jan 25th that they spoke with the dealership and there is nothing more they can do, and if there are any more issues take it to a dealership. I have not pulled this trailer again with my vehicle in fear that it will stall and stop on the road creating an accident.

Sometimes when i go to come to a stop, my truck stalls, engages the parking brake and shift itself into park. this happens before the truck comes to a complete stop and has happened at least half a dozen times. The check engine light has stayed on after a re-start of the vehicle and when this happens the charging light comes on also. Safety was put at risk because this could very easily cause a collision at an intersection, thanfully it hasnt yet. The truck goes into the dealer on jan. 31st to look at the issue. No warning lamps or warnings are ever present prior to the system failure. The check engine light stayed on the last time this happened which was last night.
when coming to a stop engine stall and the emergency brake is automatically engaged. the battery light stay on after restarting the engine. almost got hit in the rear because of this. It been to the dealership three time. no code show up. 12
Three times while at a stop sign the emergency brake has been activated, the engine has shut off and the transmission has shifted to park. There were no vehicles in front or back of me and no vehicles at the side. One of those times it took several minutes to get the truck started and moving, the other two times it was fairly quick.
In traffic in a parking lot pulling into driveways slow speeds times it just would t stop and lunges forward about 5ft not safe took it to dealership service 2 times they can’t find the problem because there saying there’s no check engine lights on to find the problem I have just around 20k miles 2022 ram this is a safety issue I did read up one person having the same problem got into a accident
Rear backup camera has no grid lines and is grainy/hard to see. Dealer troublshooted problem, determined radio to be defective. Ram/Stellantis refuises to replace radio due to "software malfunction" to be addressed in undisclosed update.
I was at a complete stop awaiting a draw bridge to lower. I put my vehicle in park. When the cars In front of me started to move I put my foot on the brake and turned the knob to drive. My vehicle immediately accelerated out of control. I immediately pressed both feet on the brake as hard as I could and the vehicle kept moving. I hit a guy on a motorcycle and swerved left as hard as I could. I traveled another 150-200 feet and was quickly approaching a gate at a local factory when my vehicle stopped three feet in front of the gate. I thought I killed the guy on the motorcycle- luckily he was ok. The witness behind me described the incident exactly as I did too. I contacted Daimler Chrysler and opened up a case with them. Seems like the gas pedal was pressing itself and I could over power it.
Hello. I leased a 2022 Ram 1500 Big Horn V6 "ETorque" on Wednesday Aug. 24th from Planet Dodge in Doral Florida. On the second day (Friday the 26th) I noticed when reversing out of my driveway, the car automatically stalled and engaged the emergency brakes, on the screen it displayed "Auto Park Disabled," since I had just gotten the truck and not used to it's new features, I thought it was something I accidentally touched or pushed. I had to turn off the truck and restart it. Now on Wednesday August 31st, while getting to a stop light (speed around 15-20 mph) the car automatically stalled and engaged the emergency brakes again and the display read "Auto Park Disabled." Now I'm on a busy street, I had to turn off the truck and re-start it. I was very perplexed and alarmed at the same time because I was about to get on the expressway to head home. I instantly called my sales rep and told him the issues, he asked if the car displayed any codes. I told him no, just "Auto Park Disabled"... he said he's "never' heard of this problem before and if it were to happen again to bring it in, I didn't hesitate I made an appointment to have the truck seen ASAP. I drive my kids to and from school and to after school activities. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE in this vehicle. I've read on other online forums that this type of Ram Engine "Etorque" has been given many drivers problems, some have had their vehicles stall in the expressway. I find it disingenuous that Dodge/Ram has not taken care of this issue sooner or set out to recall these unsafe vehicles with the "Etorque" engine. My kids are not allowed to ride in my truck until this issue is fixed. If it persists...I will enforce my Lemon Law rights in the State of Florida to have the manufacturer take back the truck.
The vehicle will slam on the breaks if I am backing into a parking spot with any sort of vegetation. This happens way before I am anywhere close to being completely in the space. This could easily cause an accident and I have come very close multiple times. I have had to shut it off and the feature is unusable.
Car has been at dealer for weeks , they can not fix .
Brake assist does not work properly. Lane assist does not work. Car may stop for no reason or not stop at all. Car looses control under lane assist
Vehicle stalls randomly while driving and automatically applies the emergency brake. Stalling randomly and applying the emergency brake in the street/highway with traffic is dangerous and unsafe. This is our primary vehicle and the dealership has been unable to recreate the stalling. The vehicle has been to the dealership twice for the stalling but the problem is still unresolved. The stalling started randomly in March-April 2022. The dealership was notified and vehicle taken in for multiple services. Problem still not solved.
Back up camera does not work and screen turns blue.
My ram was purchased in October. Since I have had it there have been multiple electrical problems. Speakers cutting in and out backup camera showing blue screen/ flickers from view to blue screen, and when these things happen it affects the way the engine runs. A few days ago I go in my truck to take off, placed truck in drive and left parking spot. 15 seconds later as I’m driving through the parking lot the emergency break engaged tried to disengage it and it wouldn’t release. Shut the truck off and back on and it disengaged. Friday morning is when I left my house for work, as I turned right from the neighborhood at the light the transmission slipped and engine just revved. Again I had to stop and shut off truck as cars were speeding towards my direction. If that has been any other morning when the intersection is busy I would have been in a pretty horrible accident thinking I would be able to take off as normal.
