The vehicle experienced repeated electrical and no-start issues believed to be related to the RF/electrical communication system. The truck has been returned to the dealership repeatedly for this issue and recently spent approximately two months at the dealership for diagnosis and repair. After finally being returned, the vehicle was completely dead the very next morning and would not start. The vehicle has also experienced dangerous electrical failures while being driven. During one incident at night, the headlights and interior electrical system became extremely dim and began flickering while an employee was operating the truck. Visibility was significantly reduced to the point the driver could barely see the roadway. During the same event, the brake pedal became abnormally hard to press intermittently, creating a serious safety concern while driving. The failure also occurred on our business lot where the truck was blocking multiple trailers needed for scheduled customer deliveries, creating operational disruption and safety concerns related to moving equipment and trailers around an inoperable heavy-duty truck. The dealership reportedly replaced or repaired an RF-related component/module during the repair process. However, the problem appears unresolved because the truck failed again immediately after being returned from service. Symptoms have included: * Complete battery drain/no-start condition * Flickering and dimming headlights/electrical systems * Intermittent hard brake pedal condition * Repeated electrical-related issues * Extended dealer downtime * Ongoing unresolved repair attempts The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. This truck is used daily for commercial/business operations. Reliability concerns are significant because unexpected electrical failure or no-start conditions can leave the vehicle stranded or create hazardous driving conditions. The issue has been reproduced after dealer repair attempts. Based on the symptoms and

While driving, the vehicle suffered a sudden, complete, and catastrophic loss of braking power due to a total failure of the brake fluid line. The vehicle had to be immediately pulled off the road to avoid a serious collision.The vehicle was transported to a certified Ram dealership service center (Southern Motors CDJR in Savannah, GA). Upon inspection, the certified factory technician discovered and documented a severe manufacturing assembly defect: the primary brake fluid line was routed incorrectly at the factory. Due to this improper routing, the line was resting in direct, constant physical contact with the hot exhaust pipe. Over time, the extreme heat from the exhaust melted completely through the brake line and the protective heat sleeve, causing an immediate drop in hydraulic pressure and total brake system failure.This is a critical manufacturing assembly error that poses an imminent life-safety risk and fire hazard to myself and other drivers of this model year. If this incorrect routing is widespread on the assembly line, it will lead to sudden brake failures at highway speeds. I am requesting a formal safety investigation into the factory routing of the brake lines relative to the exhaust system on the 2024 Ram 2500.

LT275/70R18 Firestone E Transforce HT2 Upon seeing warning lamp for low air second time, tire was taken to independent shop for inspection and repair. Tech stated tire (23000 miles) could not be repaired because of a safety issue due to sidewall seperation defect with no sign of impact or run flat damage. The rubber was soft and thin. Could have been catastrophic had it blown out on highway. I purchased a replacement. When I took the tire to a Firestone retail store, the manager said "It's hard to tell what happened to it" obviously denying a defect and refered Me to "corporate" to try and get credit. I told him I was concerned about the other three tires because they have the same batch number. DOT VN15 TH7 5123. He stated They would do a visual inspection nothing else. I have the tire if needed for inspection. I do not feel safe driving on the other tires. This lot should be recalled.

The drivers side front seat belt stopped retracting. It was fixed when the warranty was good. I also reported the passenger side, later wasn't retracting. It retracted fine when the dealer had it so they didn't do anything with it. Now the warranty is up and it's hardly ever retracting but they want me to pay for it even thought I reported it when the warranty was good. Also, the driver's side seat belt doesn't always latch. You have to shove it in several times sometimes before it clicks. Sometimes you think it's in and it will unhook later while you're driving down the road.

Description of the Issue: When full windshield defrost is selected—using either the infotainment system or physical HVAC controls—the system does not direct full airflow to the windshield. Instead, heated air is split between the windshield and floor vents, reducing airflow and heat at the windshield edges. As a result, ice forms and remains on the driver’s side windshield edge, beginning around the 11–12 o’clock steering wheel position and extending to the windshield edge. This occurs during cold conditions and restricts driver visibility, creating a safety hazard while driving. Safety Impact: The driver is unable to clear ice from the windshield edges, limiting visibility of adjacent lanes, pedestrians, and roadway conditions. When defrost is needed most, the system does not perform as required, preventing the driver from maintaining safe visibility. Inconsistent Operation: The HVAC/defrost system operates inconsistently under similar conditions. I have video evidence showing the system working correctly at times and failing at other times. In multiple cases, the only change was shutting the vehicle off and letting it sit. In one instance, the defrost later worked correctly the same day when ambient temperatures were warmer, suggesting a possible temperature-related or control issue. Videos documenting this behavior are available, including videos posted on YouTube. Additional HVAC Control Issue: The HVAC system will randomly set the temperature to 76°F and become unresponsive for approximately one minute. During this time, the driver cannot change any HVAC settings, creating distraction and preventing timely adjustment to address fogging or icing. This behavior is also documented on video. Repair Attempts: The vehicle has been taken to two RAM dealerships, and multiple parts have been replaced under warranty. The issue remains unresolved. A customer service case was also opened with RAM, but the HVAC and defrost issues have not been corrected.
