This is a big safety concern. My 2016 ram has major throttle delay. It becomes a safety concern when I'm pulling out into traffic, let off the accelerator and get back on it and it waits 1.5 to 2 seconds before the computer receives the command to give throttle. I have had one instance where I was proceeding to change lanes on the interstate and give it throttle but it didn't respond and then I was a sitting duck because my brand new truck didn't want to wake up and go. This is a known problem that is very well complained about by many ram owners and it's only a matter of time before this will get someone either hurt or killed as a result.
2016 Ram 2500 fuel system complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 12 of 12, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Purchased a new ram 2500 diesel. After 1200 miles, the diesel emission fluid (def) gauge became erratic and gave me a message that after 200 miles the truck's maximum speed would be 5 miles/hour. The am dealer in olympia, wa traced the problem to a computer module. This module is on national backorder with no delivery date in sight. I am on my way to alaska, and am stuck in olympia, wa for who knows how long. The truck is in perfect working order, except that it is programmed to stop (or go 5mph) after 200 miles unless the def problem is fixed.
