2015 Ram 1500 FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Still waiting on a call back from the dealer for the HPFP recall. Been almost 9 months now. Anyway this can be resolved before the truck stops running? I commute to work with it everyday.

Bought the truck July 2022 and since then its been problems with stalling. The vehicle cuts off driving down the road. It can happen once a day or 5 times and restart. It was harder and harder to restart and finally it down not restart at all. Everytime it has a different fuel code. Started with the gas cap, then fuel pressure sensor, then driver module, and fuel pump codes. All parts as well as harnesses have been replaced.

On occasions too numerous to list the engine suddenly loses power. This has been very, very dangerous, especially on the interstates. The recall on the fuel pump was issued in June and 5+ months later still no solution. How much longer am I supposed to drive this dangerous vehicle?

Driving approximately 80 mph on the interstate when the truck completely shut off-total power failure. I was lucky and able to pull off, once I took the key out the truck started. Took to the dealer who stated they couldn’t duplicate the issue. 6 months later driving on side street same issue, truck shut down while driving with complete power failure. Reported issue to dealer who said call Fiat Chrysler. Spoke to Fiat Chrysler stated no fix currently available, no rental car or loaner would be provided despite this truck being unsafe to drive.

HPFP failure causing frequent sudden decrease in propulsion while driving which is in turn endangering me & my family including young children as well as other drivers on the road. The check engine light 100% came on immediately & has been on & off intermittently until about a week ago where it is lit continuously. I am no longer able to drive my vehicle which is needed desperately for work. I immediately reached out to Dodge Ram who states there will not be an available repair for this recall until 2023. I just bought this vehicle 45 days ago & am making payments on it. There must be something that can be done expeditiously. I cannot make these payments if I loose my job. Please reply ASAP.

Rusted out area on chassis/bracket causing front fuel tank strap to detach and hang, no longer supporting fuel tank.

Driving on interstate 65 mph there was a sudden loud grinding sound from under my truck. I pulled over and found my gas tank hanging . I was able to slowly get to and area where i could safely see what happened after looking at gas tank i found that the front gas strap rusted threw the frame and the full gas tank fell down and was hitting the drive shaft. I was able to jack up the tank and put a strap around it and drive home 183 miles . I was lucky it did not hit the road as the tank was full of gas.

As I was driving to work I noticed a noise coming from under / middle of the truck. Once parked I looked underneath and realized my front fuel tank strap had rusted off and my tank was hanging low and held by only the rear strap.

Loss of power. Unable to get vehicle to highway speed. Loss of fuel economy. I looked at FCA and NHTSA sites and see a fuel pump recall for my vehicle issued in June. Called local dealer Fury motors in Stillwater, MN where I am currently and was told by service dept that there won't be anything FCA will do before 1st qtr of 2023. I am stranded here with a disabled vehicle. I live in Colorado.

Smoke coming from top of motor by fuel line cause a fire

FUEL LEVEL SENSOR CONTINUES TO STOP WORKING CAUSING MY ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON. I AM NOT AWARE IF I WILL RUN OUT OF GAS OR NOT. THIS REPAIR PROCESS IS WELL OVER $700 UNLESS I DO MYSELF WHICH I DONT HAVE TTE EQUIPMENT TO TAKE MY BED OFF MY TRUCK. THAT IS EVEN MORE DANGEROUS WHEN THIS IS A FAULTY PART ON DODGES PART. FOR THE COST OF HTESE TRUCKS THESE NEED TO BE PART OF A RECALL.

DODGE/RAM HAS KNOWLEDGE OF A FAULTY FUEL SENSOR FAILURE ON RAM TRUCKS THAT CAN CAUSE A DRIVER TO BECOME STRANDED DUE TO A SUDDEN LOSS OF FUEL LEVEL READINGS. THE SENSOR IS PRONE TO FAILURE AS EARLY AS 20,000 MILES. THERE ARE LOTS OF ONLINE NEWGROUP COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE, AND DODGE/RAM HAS REPRESENTATION ON THOSE GROUPS, AS WELL, SO THEY ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. MY VEHICLE IS JUST OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY WITH 70,000 MILES AND THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR HAS FAILED THROWING A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND A DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) P0463 FOR 'FUEL LEVEL SENSOR 'A' CIRCUIT HIGH. THE OUT OF POCKET COST TO REPAIR THIS IS SUBSTANTIAL, AND THE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE PRONE TO THE FAILURE, AS WELL.

THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON A RURAL HIGHWAY, HAPPENED SUDDENLY, AND LEFT US STRANDED WHEN WE RAN OUT OF FUEL. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE, AND SHOULD BE A MANDATORY RECALL ITEM.

P0364 FUEL SENSOR FAILURE. GAS INSTRUMENT GAUGE SUDDENLY GOES EMPTY WHILE IN MOTION AND NO LONGER WORKS. DEFECTIVE FUEL SENDING UNIT SENSOR. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE TO HAVE FAILING PARTS INSIDE GAS TANK.

FIRST TIME GAS CAP PROBLEM....REPLACED IT CK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD GO OFF...HAD TO LEAVE TRUCK AT DEALER 4 DAYS😡! NEXT GAS TANK NECK HAD TO REPLACED ......LEFT TRUCK AT DEALER 2 DAYS😡 NEXT GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF AS IF TANK IS FULL EVEN THOUGH IT HAS ONLY QUARTER TANK ....... TOOK IT IN TO DEALER WANTED TRUCK LEFT FOR 3-4 DAYS TO CHECK.....EMISSION PROBLEMS.....3 TIMES😡 ALL HAPPENED WHILE PARKED AT HOME AND GAS STATION!

FUEL SENSOR UNIT FAILURE RESULTING IN VEHICLES INABILITY TO READ HOW MUCH FUEL VEHICLE HAS. A KNOWN ISSUE FOR YEAR MAKE AND MODEL OF TRUCK. FCA HAS FAILED TO ISSUE A RECALL WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE LONG AGO. WHILE DRIVING MY CHECK ENGINE LOGO CAME ON AND I GOT THE ERROR MESSAGE FUEL SENSOR FAILURE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL RAM DEALERSHIP AND I WAS TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM HOWEVER IF MY WARRANTY WAS UP FIAT CHRYSLER WILL LIKELY NOT COVER IT.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND MY VEHICLES FUEL SENSOR FAILURE LIGHT CAME ON AND MY FUEL GAGE DROPPED TO EMPTY. WHEN I PUT FUEL INTO N IT WENT OFF AND IT DOES IT WHEN MY FUEL GAGE DROPS BELOW HALF FULL.

THE ENGINE LIGHT COME ON THEN THE WARNING COME UP FUEL SENSOR FAIL THE GAS GAUGE GOES TO EMPTY.FIRST STARTED DOING IF GOING UP A HILL ABOUT A MONTH AGO. NOW IT WILL GO OFF WHEN THE TANK IS FULL AND COME BACK ON WHEN I HAVE A HALF A TANK. IT HAS 72000 MILE ON THE TRUCK.. I SEE ALOT OF PEPOLE HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND WONDERING WHY DODGE IS NOW DOING A RECALL ON IT?

FUEL SENSOR FAILURE, WITHOUT ANY WARNING FUEL GAUGE DROPS TO EMPTY WHILE IN MOTION, NOT KNOWING THE CAUSE HAD TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY TO SEE IF THERE WAS A LEAK OR PUNCTURE. RESEARCHING THE INTERNET THIS SEEMS LIKE COMMON PROBLEM THAT RAM WILL NOT ADDRESS .

WENT TO GET FUEL BECAUSE MY GUAGE SHOWED IT WAS LOW. ATTENDANT TRIED TO FILL IT AND SAID IT WAS FULL. HE TRIED AGAIN AND FUEL JUST CAME OUT. TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID I NEEDED A NEW FUEL TANK, PRESSURE SENSOR AND FILLER NECK ASSEMBLY AT $3300. MY TRUCK HAD 66,000 MILES AND I BOUGHT IT 3 MONTHS AGO USED.

MY VEHICLE WITH UNDER 70K MILES RECENTLY PURCHASED FROM A USED DEALER HAD A SEVERE PROBLEM THE GAS GAUGE SHOWED EMPTY A FEW MINUTES AFTER SHOWING 1/2 TANK I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO A GAS STATION AND WAS NOT STRANDED ON THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AS TO IMPEDE TRAFFIC AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. WHEN I REFUELED AT THE GAS STATION IT SHOWED IT WAS NOT COMPLETELY EMPTY AS I WAS LEAD TO BELIEVE BY THE CLUSTER. AND THROUGH SEVERAL DISCUSSIONS AND DIAGNOSING IT WAS BELIEVED TO BE A FAULTY PART IN THE FUEL SYSTEM THAT TENDS TO FALSELY SHOW EMPTY.

THE VEHICLE IS AT APPROX 58,000 MILES AND THE WELL DOCUMENTED FUEL SENSOR FAILURE HAS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASHBOARD. THIS HAPPENED SHORTLY AFTER FILLING THE TANK TO FULL AND A DRIVE OF ABOUT 60 MILES. IN ADDITION TO THE FUEL SENSOR FAILURE, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED, WHICH DISABLES ECO MODE. THE DEALER WANTS $1000 TO FIX IT. NOT ACCEPTABLE.

2015 RAM 1500 WITH 69,000 MILES ON IT AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WHEN TRUCK GETS TO A HALF TANK OF GAS HAD THE CODE CHECKED P0463 FUEL SENSOR LEVEL. NOW I NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH FUEL IS IN THE TANK BECAUSE CANT TRUST THE FUEL GAUGE WHILE TRAVELING ALSO TRUCK WONT START WITH REMOTE START WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. FROM DOING SOME RESEARCH THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM . ITS SAD THAT YOU PAY SO MUCH MONEY FOR A TRUCK AND HAVE TO DEAL WITH SITUATIONS LIKE THIS.

FUEL SENDING UNIT ISSUES AROUND 80 K MILES SENDS ERROR CODES AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS . CHECKED ON MULTIPLE FORUMS MANY CONSUMERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTIES. IT'S A CONTINUOUS PROBLEM AROUND HALF A TANK. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CODE IS FOR LOSS OF SIGNAL TO FUEL SENDER

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 RAM 1500. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE FUEL GAUGE DROPPED TO 0 AND THE FUEL SENSOR FAILURE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DESERT 215 SUPERSTORE (LOCATED AT 8030 RAFAEL RIVERA WAY, LAS VEGAS, NV 89113, (702) 963-8000), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 164,000.

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, FUEL SENSOR ERROR, AND THE FUEL NEEDLE MOVED TO EMPTY, LIGHT COMES ON FLASHING FUEL SENSOR FAIL. THIS STARTED HAPPENING AT AROUND 68000 MILES. I HAVE BEEN TOLD I WILL HAVE TO DROP THE GAS TANK AND REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP. I HAVE BEEN QUOTED UP TO $1000 TO FIX THIS ISSUE HAPPENS WHILE IDLING OR DRIVING THE TRUCK, I HAVE NO IDEA WHEN MY TANK IS GETTING CLOSE TO EMPTY, AND FEAR THAT MY FAMILY MAY BE STRANDED SOMEWHERE.
