The digital instrument cluster failed. All telemetry is shown on this cluster including speed, fuel level, rpm, odometer and more. The cluster was going totally black every two minutes and it would disable cruise, lane departure warning, blind spot warning and the check engine light was on. There was no indication prior that there was a problem, it just all of a sudden went black and beeped. Then it would come back after 5 seconds and do it again two minutes later. Also my odometer wasn't working or updating the miles. The dealer confirmed the cluster needed to be replaced. It sat at the dealer for 96 days before the repair was made.

My wife and I were driving at approximately 30 mph down a street with no vehicles or obstructions around. My truck auto braking initiated and locked up the brakes stopping us immediately and the vehicle turned off. I've taken the truck to the dealership for other electronic errors and issues, but they always get dismissed since they don't stay stored for the dealership to troubleshoot. They always clear when the vehicle restarts. Minor injuries from seatbelt due to sudden stop. Unsure of other damage to vehicle or tires. Thankfully no cars were behind us or we would have been rear ended.
Driving on the highway with cruise control set, heard a beep and looked at my instrument cluster. Cluster went blank, cruise control turned off, lane management turned off. Then another beep turned on instrument panel and now was frozen at 0 as I was driving at highway speed. Next I was stopped at the off ramp and instrument panel said I was doing 57. I have videos of it happening. And it is in a constant frozen to reboot stage
My 2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn, ~6,000 miles) experienced a steering-assist failure and then a ruptured coolant hose that sprayed coolant over electronics. Dealer (Hendrick Hoover) refused warranty service and instructed me to leave their property. Ram Customer Care told me to drive the unsafe truck home while my child was onboard. The vehicle is now inoperable and unsafe. I have photos and video of the leak and the dealer refusing service. I request an urgent safety investigation and that the federal safety agency notify Stellantis that my vehicle presents a clear safety risk.
Upon starting my vehicle, numerous warning lamps/messages appeared to include: - "Service Electronic Stability Control" - "4WD System Temporarily Unavailable" - "Auto Emergency Braking (AEB) Off" - "Blind Spot Alert Unavailable Service Required" (the blind spot indicator lights on the side mirrors were also illuminated) In addition to the above warnings, I no longer had electronic power steering, making the vehicle nearly impossible to turn. Thankfully I was parked when all of this occurred. Had I been driving, the loss of power steering alone could have been catastrophic. I shut down the vehicle hoping that the issues would resolve upon restart. Unfortunately they did not. It took multiple more shutdowns/restarts and approximately 20 minutes before the problems disappeared and the vehicle seemed to be functioning properly. I immediately drove the vehicle to the dealership for service. As of this writing, they have not been able to replicate the problem nor find a cause.
Components keep going offline, about 5 times a week. Larry Miller RAM, says there's nothing they can do, since the technology is so new. So I purchased a $84k vehicle for their safety features, that don't work 50% of the time.
Vehicle has been taken to the dealership for AEB and blind spot monitoring. The vehicle has spent 15 days in the shop, only for nothing to have changed. Vehicle was driven by dealership an excessive 171 miles, only to be returned to us and within 10 minutes of driving, the AEB warning reappears. This vehicle has driven less than 5000mi. It should not have such electrical issues impacting enhanced safety features. The truck is going back to the dealership for yet another attempt to repair, unlikely to be successful. A quick online search leads to numerous individuals experiencing the same issue with their Ram truck with seemingly no resolution in site outside of replacing the CADM module. It's absurd that this hasn't been issued as a formal recall.
When vehicle is in reverse, the rear camera is showing a blue screen on the navigation. Sometimes it flashes blue and other times it is solid blue. Dealer has already replaced navigation system and rear camera but it continues to happen intermittently. I have had the vehicle less than 4 months. Has been to the dealer 4 times
While driving all the brake system warning lights come on, even the anti-lock brake system light, and we get a warning stating emergency active braking system error message. The brake pedal goes all the way to the floor when we tried to pull off to the side of the road. This has happened multiple times now and at 1st the dealership couldn't replicate the problem. The it happened yet again and we got video evidence of the brake failure while driving. I did file a claim with Stellantis because the dealership can't get the brake system control module needed to hopefully correct this issue and they said they can get the part to the dealership on 10-5-25. At that point the dealership will have had the truck for 36 days.
The emergency brake malfunctioned transmission in park malfunctioned yes its available for inspection i was almost ran over by the truck or pinned between truck door and hand rail. I have not had vehicle inspection done yet dealer had been notified and awaiting there response. When i re entered the vehicle dash displayed warning emergency brake disengaged placed vehicle into drive to move forward and then dash displayed emergency brake engaged and placed vehicle into park automatically which made it nearly impossible to move. Prior to this event truck was parked in my driveway the night before then the following morning truck was in the grass it had rolled there. When connected to any trailer the dash displays check trailer connection and the running lights on passenger sides of the trailers are off and or going dim and bright.
All major braking and safety systems have failed, including the parking brake, 4-wheel drive, cruise and adaptive cruise control, lane departure warnings, blind spot monitoring, and parking collision alerts. These failures occurred at the same time, and we believe there may be additional issues not yet identified. Our local dealership (Barry Sanders Supercenter, Stillwater, OK) attempted multiple repairs before opening a service ticket with RAM/Stellantis. We were informed the part needed to fix the problem is backordered for approximately one year. This extended delay means we must continue driving a vehicle without critical safety systems or park it indefinitely, creating both a financial and safety burden. The loss of these features greatly increases the risk of collisions, especially in bad weather or on highways where adaptive cruise, lane departure warnings, and blind spot detection are essential. Online searches show this is not an isolated issue but a recurring problem in 2025 RAM 1500 models, suggesting a broader manufacturing or design defect.
Purchased a 2025 RAM 1500 TUNGSTEN on [XXX]. Within a week of purchase, the blind spot monitors, forward collision monitors, and the emergency braking all quick working. The first attempt to fix was replacing wiring. This stopped it for a week before they were back on. Goes back into shop and replace and fully charge batteries and again it lasted about a week. Two more trips to shop (3rd and 4th visits) for same issues with more "quick fixes". Fifth attempt to fix took a couple weeks and had a module replaced. which lasted for about 3 weeks. After a trip to Florida in April it had to go in to shop again for the same issues. This time is spent 7 weeks in the shop, replaced multiple modules and other trial and error pieces before it was "fixed" again. Got vehicle back in June and it ran good until last week(end of August). Now every light on my dash is on. None of the safety features are working(airbags, emergency braking, front/rear monitors, traction control, 4x4 system, air ride suspension, etc...). Even the power steering has gone out this time. So now it is back in the shop for the 8th total time in 9 months of ownership. This will be the 4th or 5th star case thats been opened on it and I have completely lost faith in the vehicles ability to be fixed and even more so lost on the ability for RAM(Stellantis and Customer Care) to be able to fix it at all. This truck should be bought back or replaced with a comparable truck that actually works. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Auto Emergency Braking. It is available for inspection. Dealer has verified multiple instances of error codes from this issue. Dealer claims they cannot replicate it, but this has happened numerous 50+ times and occurs before and after vehicle is taken in for service for this issue. Vehicle has been inspected by manufacturer. Warning lamps appear, error message displayed saying "service required" and automatic safety email is generated by FCA and sent to me. Issue first appeared 3 days after purchased and 197 miles on odometer. Manufacturer refuses to properly address the issue. Engine failure has also occurred during this time while actively driving, but I have no idea if its related.
Constantly getting warnings that Auto emergecy braking, blind spot monitoring, and forward collision is disabled and needs service. It flashes on and off on the dash at inconsistent rates and appears to be bad wiring connections or faulty equipment. Been to dealer numerous times and still not fixed. I feel like these systems are going to fail me and could cause a potential safety concern.
When I test drive the truck it had approximately 20 miles on it. There was a yellow warning light on that indicated there was a trailer attached and the blind spot monitoring was deactivated. The salesman said it was just a glitch and they would get it fixed. I bought the truck a few days later and it had many more miles on it. The warning light was still on and the salesman said he would take it to get repaired while I was finishing the paperwork. After waiting over 3 hours he brought the truck to me. When I got in to drive home the warning light was still on. I asked him and he said they couldn’t gix it but it wasn’t important and I could come back later. I made an appointment for the next Monday. They kept the truck over 12 hours and said the had to order a part but it was safe to drive. Weeks later I brought the truck back and again it was there from open to close and it wasn’t fixed. This time they said it wasn’t safe to drive and I had to leave it there until they could fix it. It wasn’t safe there appropriately 30 days and they called and said they couldn’t fix it and to come and pick it up. The warning light was still on and the blue nd spot monitor still isn’t working. Now it comes on and off randomly and makes a great amount of noise as the alarms go off and on.
UConnect "requires service" message since 2nd month of ownership. When this error activates, the Emergency call function becomes unoperational. Also, at times, the error popup comes up when I am backing up into a busy street. This is a critical safety issue!! Multiple trips to the dealer since last year. The issue is not fixed. Lane Keep Assist issue: The sequence: When changing parameters In UConnect 1- Select Vehicle tab 2- Select Safety & driving assistance 3- Select Active lane management 4- Attempts to change any parameters result in (Setting failed, setting not saved please try again All of these issues are a major safty concern for me and my family.
The instrument cluster panel went blank for over 40 miles, despite us stopping, shutting off and restarting, etc. We had no idea what speed we were going or any of the metrics monitored by the instrument cluster like turn signals, fuel level, engine temperature, etc. No cruise control. We took it to an auto parts store that captured the error code U0155. The RAM app on my Iphone also sent a warning that the blind spot monitoring failed. I will be bringing it to Champion Chrysler Dodge Ram in Lansing, MI, on 7/7/2025 and do not intend to take it back until this problem is resolved. While the instrument cluster panel went back to normal since then, how can I be assured it will not fault again and what safety protocols can I rely upon?
Multiple warning lights for “Automatic Emergency Braking Unavailable Service Required” along with “Blind Spot Unavailable Service Required” this truck required 4 (four) trips to the dealer to find a resolution. Parts took 50 days to arrive so had to disable these important safety systems and continue driving. Blind spot light on passenger side mirror goes off randomly in heavy rain even after this repair. So while driving in the rain, it’s unreliable. Over 30 other reports of all the above issues on the RAM-RHO forums.
ram 1500 RHO year model 2500 blind spot sensors in mirror stay on sometimes for no reason as well as a service adas message, and clean blind spot sensors. this makes the self driving feature not work on many new ram rho's.
Vehicle: 2025 Ram 1500 RHO (base trim) VIN: [XXX] Build Date: [XXX] Purchase Date: [XXX] Mileage at first occurrence: ≈ 40 miles (issue began immediately after delivery) Mileage now: [insert current mileage] Problem Description The instrument cluster (IPC) repeatedly reboots while driving or upon each key cycle. Every restart forces the odometer to reset and display 40 miles, erasing the accurate accumulated mileage. Simultaneously, the vehicle fails to retain any infotainment or vehicle-settings data (radio presets, climate preferences, drive modes, seat/mirror memory). This occurs 100 % of the time with every ignition cycle and has happened on every drive since purchase. Safety Concern A rebooting cluster distracts the driver, removes access to critical information (speedometer, warning lights), and falsifies odometer readings—potentially masking future maintenance intervals and impairing resale/title accuracy. The loss of settings can also disable previously selected safety aids (e.g., adaptive cruise presets, lane-keep parameters) without the driver’s knowledge. Attempts to Resolve Hard battery reset performed (negative-terminal disconnect, 30 min). Issue returned on first restart. Awaiting dealer appointment; preliminary research indicates similar complaints among early-production 2025 RHO vehicles and a possible IPC/BCM firmware defect. No official recall or TSB acknowledged for my VIN to date. Frequency Every ignition cycle; cluster reboot typically occurs within 30 seconds of start-up or during the first two minutes of driving. Infotainment/vehicle settings never save between cycles. Events & Dates [XXX]: Vehicle delivered; first reboot observed while exiting dealership lot. 06/29/2025–present: Issue persists on every drive. Requested Action Investigation into potential defective IPC/BCM firmware or hardware causing repeated reboots and odometer data loss on 2025 Ram 1500 RHO models built in April 2025.

Adaptive cruise control does not work, Forward collision warning does not work, pedestrian emergency braking does not work, auto emergency braking does not work among other non safety issues. Dealer is aware and has ordered a new infotainment system which controls all these safety features but is unable to get it from the manufacturer for the last 6 months. This system did not work from the day I picked up the vehicle
Since purchasing the vehicle in April, I have had a continuous problem with the brake's and brake system's. The red dash warning chime and red warning light have come on. I have brought the car in 4 times to the dealer for repair, to no avail. This happened before I put 100 miles on the car and has continued. I currently only have about 680 miles. The dealer has "worked" on on it for almost 2 months (bought the car 3 months ago). The following codes keep being set (scan attached). 2 Anti-Lock Brake System Code : C05D2-00 - Master Cylinder Piston Position Higher Than Expected. C0597-00 - Brake System Control Module 'A' Performance. 1 Instrument Panel Cluster Code: B12B7-92 - Instrument Panel Cluster Display. 1 Integrated Trailer Control Module Code: C10C7-00 - Electronic Trailer Brake Control Output.

I am submitting this formal safety complaint regarding my 2025 RAM 1500 Limited, which I purchased new in November 2024 and currently with approximately 9,000 miles. The vehicle has exhibited repeated, dangerous failures of its advanced driver assistance and braking systems that place both the driver and public at serious risk. Summary of Safety Incidents: First Incident: While driving at approximately 35 mph, the vehicle abruptly and uncommandedly stopped, with no driver input. Fortunately, there were no vehicles behind me at the time, or this could have resulted in a high-speed rear-end collision. Second Incident: Roughly 400 miles later, while stopped at a traffic light, the vehicle displayed multiple warning alerts and shut itself off completely. Upon restarting and driving approximately 50 yards, the braking system failed for about five seconds, rendering the truck unable to stop. This failure was later replicated by the authorized dealership’s service team, who then informed me that the vehicle’s CPU had failed during repair attempts. The vehicle has now been out of service for over 50 days, and the dealer has returned it to me twice in an unsafe condition. Stellantis, the vehicle manufacturer, has acknowledged the problem but has not provided a resolution.
Purchase truck and noticed on test drive steering wheel was off centered to the right by about 10-15 degrees.When Lane Assist was activated truck would drift right only to be alerted by the assist which would over correct steering to the left side of the lane.Lane Assist would just continue this effort to keep truck center.Truck has been aligned twice already and steering is still off centered to right.Back again to different dealership and tech ran EPS Flash and ran a steering angle calibration on EPS.Still not correct.Stored code was found as well C121A-00 Steering Angle Sensor not Initialized.Will continue working with dealerships till a solution has been found by engineering at RAM.I wish RAM would put this on a high priority fix, because I cannot use my Lane Assist safety feature.Due to steering issue..
150 amp fuse blew. Caused auxillary battery to die and the truck didnt start. Caused the check engine light to turn on and many features such as lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control, remote start, and auto start/stop didn't work. The manufacturer and dealer states that it's not a warrantied item. Thr 150 amp fuse connects both batteries
The windshield of my 2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn was damaged by road debris and requires replacement. However, the manufacturer (FCA US LLC/Stellantis) has failed to supply the replacement windshield, rendering my vehicle undrivable for an extended period due to their inadequate parts supply chain. This delay creates a major safety risk because the vehicle cannot be driven legally or safely without a windshield. In emergency situations, the vehicle would be unusable, and I have incurred significant financial harm due to its inoperability. A new vehicle should not have months-long delays for critical safety components. The OEM supplier (Carlex) has confirmed that the windshield is in stock and available to ship, meaning the issue is due entirely to FCA's failure to place the order or manage their supply chain. This demonstrates negligence in FCA/Stellantis' parts supply chain, impacting customers who require essential repairs. This issue is not an isolated incident but rather a symptom of FCA's failure to ensure part availability for new vehicles. A consumer should not have to wait months to obtain a necessary safety component for a brand-new vehicle. I request that the federal safety agency investigate FCA/Stellantis' failure to supply essential replacement parts in a reasonable timeframe as this represents a potentially systemic issue affecting vehicle owners.
My rear park sense turned off, there are trailer light and blind spot warnings happening every few seconds. Just to clarify the truck is not hooked up to anything , also there is a bell ringing every few seconds.
The truck brake pedal got hard and went all the way to the bottom. Dash lighted up like a Christmas tree. Luckily I was entering a parking lot so I was going slow and was able to park the truck. Truck only has 453 miles and is only 2 weeks since purchase. If there's a recall for this issue I believe it wasn't taken care of before selling it to me.
2025 RAM 1500 with 1580 miles. While in 4WD at 10 mph, vehicle message “service electronic stability control” followed by “ 4WD system temporarily unavailable” and “emergency braking unavailable. I was on a beach when it failed. Managed to get off the beach with failure still there. I shut down the vehicle a few miles later and started it back up and failure still there. After 7 miles the failure disappeared. Called service and they said call back if it happened again?? Told me the code would not be observable by the time I got to them. Sounds similar to a recall on vehicles manufactured thru August of 2024. This truck was built in September 2024.
