2019 Ram 1500 Engine

exhaust manifold cracked on both pass/driver side replaced at dealer now cracked again 85k miles don't pull or haul anything

The contact owns a 2019 Ram 1500. The contact stated while driving 25 MPH, several unknown warning lights illuminated and the vehicle stalled. The contact stated she was unable to activate the hazard lights. The contact was able to restart the vehicle and drive to her destination. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. A dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 82,682.

I was Driving On the Highway doing about 70MPH and the truck shut down on me and i had to Coast to the Sholder across 3 Lanes of traffic. Truck would not restart and had to have it towed. Had to Have the Truck towed to Dodge and when they looked at it they put it on the Computer and there were no Issues. This is scary

Starter stopped working and needed to be replaced

Bolts holding the exhaust manifold to the engine block had broken on both sides. This led to a ticking sound coming from the engine bay while the vehicle was running

When I was driving roughly 25 to mph I lost all power. Engine was still rubbing and revving because I was pressing the gas but I lost all power to accelerate and no check engine lights were in. All guards were fine and I have over 3/4 of a tank of gas. I have noticed upon acceleration at random times I will have difficultly accelerating. I heard a loud knocking at which time the dealer said it was a lifter. I took it to an independent shop after the service tech Andrew told me it’s a smart motor and will correct itself so no need to make any repairs. I was told at the independent repair shop that I had a manifold problem and they replace the manifold. But today noticed again I’ve lost power and unable to accelerate while going 49 mph. Again told by Andrew that it’s a smart engine and will correct itself however it’sa safety issue when driving the freeway

Turned left into a parking lot, approximately 10-15 mph, and the engine unexpectedly shuts off. Electric parking brake engaged and all warning dash lights came on. If the person behind me was not paying attention they would have collided with me. Was able to start the truck and drive into the parking lot. After searching forums online, this seems to be a common problem with no solution or acknowledgement from the manufacturer.

I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY 75 AND MY CAR SLIMIEST TURNED OFF AND SPUTTERED. I SLOWED DOWN LIKE I STOPPED ON BREAKS AND A 18 WHEELER HAD TO CHANGE LANES.

THIS IS A DEFECT THAT COULD CAUSE LIVES TO BE LOST IF THE TRUCK HAS NOT BEEN PAYING ATTENTION.

WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING ,THE VEHICLE ENGINE QUITS AND LOOSES ALL POWER. POWER STEERING IS LOST AND ALL POWER IS LOST. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE ON MY TRUCK THAT HAS LESS THAN 5,000 MILES ON IT. WHEN THE INCIDENT HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME THE LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP REPLACED A RELAY SWITCH. I BELIEVE THE ISSUE IS RELATED TO A FAULTY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AS I ALSO HAVE ISSUES WITH THE POWER MIRRORS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. IT IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE TO BE DRIVING THIS TRUCK WITH MY CHILDREN AND FAMILY NOT KNOWING WHEN AND WHERE THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT MY LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP. *DT*JB
