2022 Ram 3500 Complaints

The contact owns a 2022 Ram 3500. The contact stated that while driving approximately 10-15 MPH, there was an abnormal rattling sound coming from the vehicle. The engine warning light was illuminated. The local dealer was contacted, and it was determined that the grid heater bolt had melted and fallen into the engine. The vehicle was repaired after two months due to the piston being on backorder. The manufacturer was contacted, but no additional assistance was provided. The approximate failure mileage was 35,000. The VIN was not available.

Driver of the 2022 Ram 3500 pulled out of a driveway onto a street and ran over a pedestrian who was crossing in front of him. Driver states he did not see the pedestrian. I understand the 2022 Ram 3500 is equipped with front ParkSense Sensors, but these sensors failed to deploy. The pedestrian suffered very serious injuries requiring weeks of hospitalization and additional outpatient rehabilitation. The incident is caught on surveillance camera. The vehicle should be available for inspection upon request. The vehicle has not been inspected.

I have had the seal between the transmission and transfer case replaced 3 times due to leaking since new and after each repair within miles of each repair and all prior to the vehicle reaching 50,000 miles. The last time it was repaired at 65,000 miles they decided to replace the transmission with a new transmission - it also leaked between the transmission and transfer case within 1 day and less than 100 miles.

I pushed them in to reseat and the error cleared. This happens monthly. This last time happened during a snow storm and disabled abs.

***1*** The emissions system on this truck (2022 Ram 3500 with 34,435 miles) has been problematic since I acquired it 5 months ago. It continually attempts to regenerate and rid itself of ash/soot buildup. If it does not successfully regenerate, it will go into a state of reduced power, also known as limp mode. The truck is available for inspection and will be at Lithia CDJR in Corpus Christi tomorrow, 07 Jan 2026. ***2*** Today specifically, the truck flashed a message EXHAUST FILTER NEARING FULL SAFELY DRIVE AT CONSISTENT SPEED TO CLEAR. I got on the highway to achieve this and avoid lights and stop/go traffic. It typically takes around 25 minutes of consistent driving for it to clear. But today, shortly after I reached highway speeds, the truck entered limp mode, displaying EXHAUST FILTER FULL REDUCED POWER SEE DEALER. This was a very alarming incident that created a bottleneck on the highway and presumably for me to nearly be rear ended as it happened at 5:35pm. I was able...
