After towing module recall completed, the trailer towing light comes On showing up on the dash board in yellow requesting setup, then fades off. Twice happened. Folding mirror required three depressions of folding mirror button to open. Back up camera fails and shows blue screen, no back up image. 5 times since Ownership. Downshift and up shift hard enough and jerky enough to break traction on icy roads in traffic. Winter is coming and this is a genuine safety concern. Pulling into parking spot very slowly truck went into park and applied brakes, no reason for this. Front sensors failed to operate when pull into into another park spot and only worked on restart. Both batteries failed and required replacement under warranty when truck was new with break in type miles. A/C locked up on infotainment center and could not turn off. Required three restarts. Rear view mirror has failed to dim several times. Numerous software issues and electrical. Stellantis should buy these trucks back, fix them right and then sell as used. I would like my hard earned money back on a new truck plagued with issues and is a safety hazard!

Subject: URGENT SAFETY ESCALATION – Unintended Highway Braking + Ongoing Defects – 2025 Ram 1500 Tungsten – VIN [XXX] – Previous $10,000 Settlement Dear Ram / Stellantis Customer Care and Escalation Team, I am writing to escalate a critical safety defect and continuing problems with my 2025 Ram 1500 Tungsten. Vehicle details: VIN: [XXX] Current mileage: 17,500 Purchased: XXX Dealership: Billion – [XXX] Owner: [XXX] In May Stellantis provided a $10,000 cash settlement related to multiple electrical and other faults. Despite that settlement, the vehicle has continued to experience significant and escalating problems. NEW SERIOUS Critical safety issue – Unintended Automatic Braking: While using Hands-Free Active Driving Assist (or related ADAS systems) at 80 mph on the freeway with a clear lane ahead, the truck has slammed on the brakes without cause. This occurred once last year and has now happened two additional times. The most recent incident (Monday) nearly resulted in a serious accident when a vehicle behind me was forced to swerve to avoid a rear-end collision. My natural reaction was also to brake, which compounded the danger. This is a clear and dangerous safety defect involving the Automatic Emergency Braking / ADAS systems. I am currently forced to continue operating the vehicle with these known faults for approximately two more weeks before Billion in [XXX] can schedule service. Additional ongoing defects and repair history: The latest issue involves the engine revs surging up and down at idle, with the engine nearly stalling before recovering. Since new (XXX), this vehicle has already been in the workshop/garage 8 times and I have been provided with 8 rental vehicles. This will now become the 9th workshop visit and 9th rental once the dealership can take it in approximately two weeks. These continued defects — especially the unintended hard braking at highway speed — substantially impair the safe INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My 2025 Ram 1500 equipped with the 3.0L High Output engine has experienced two separate incidents involving loss or severe reduction of electric power steering assist. The first incident occurred on August 23, 2026, while traveling at approximately 40 mph on a public roadway. The steering became extremely heavy, the odometer began flashing, and the check-engine light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to nearest Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram service department on August 24 and remained there until August 28. During that visit, the dealership determined that the main battery failed testing and replaced it. The auxiliary battery tested good. The dealership also completed RRT 25-143, RRT 25-237, and RRT 25-239, including several module inspections and software reprogramming procedures. The second incident occurred on August 29, 2026, less than approximately 36 hours after the vehicle was returned to me. At a speed of less than 10 mph, the check-engine light illuminated, the odometer began flashing, the engine shut off, and the vehicle again experienced loss/severe reduction of power steering assist. The vehicle was taken to the RAM dealership where it was purchased on August 31, 2026, for the recurring issue and is currently still at the dealership. At this time, I have not been provided a confirmed root cause or an estimated completion date. This is a significant safety concern because the loss of steering assist has now occurred twice within six days, including once at approximately 40 mph. The first repair did not resolve the condition, and the vehicle has spent the majority of that period in dealership service.
