2014 Ram eco diesel. The high pressure fuel pump failed on the interstate while passing a semi truck. This failure sent metal throughout the entire fuel system to include; injectors, fuel lines, fuel return lines, fuel rail, and fuel tank. The truck immediately went into limp mode, then a check engine light appeared and finally a low oil pressure light. No other warnings or symptoms appeared prior to failure. I pulled on the interstate immediately as the truck had no power. All of this happened within 30 seconds or so. I was forced to quickly move to the shoulder and move out of the trucks way as my vehicle was emitting significant white smoke out of the exhaust. The issue is confirmed with a Ram dealer in bozeman mt. Awaiting parts that are currently on back order. Been 2 months already

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request" my suspension and also my engine are the first problems that i have noticed while driving this vehicle. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? When I drive I am scared to go even the speed limit of 30mph because my suspension makes my car bump aggressively and also there is a loud ticking noise I notice under the hood I have looked up reviews of this vehicle and seen that others have similar complaints for the dodge ram 2014 1500. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center?] I took it into palmens dodge dealership and they didn't want to diagnose the vehicle unless the took the engine apart though they said it was better off replacing just by hearing the noise. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Not as far as I'm aware Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear" the problem started towards the beginning of the new year

Vehicle engine stopped suddenly on highway while traveling 50mph. Dash message was about service electronic throttle system. Vehicle coasted to a stop without power steering or brakes. Vehicle would not restart and was taken via Wrecker service to the dealership. Tone Ring failed along with crankshaft position sensor. There are two recalls (W58 and W68) dealing with this issue for other VIN numbers in the 2014 model year. Chrysler is not acknowledging that this issue also applies to my vehicle and isn't covering the tone ring under the recall or warranty. This should be investigated as a broader application of the W58 and W68 recall.

Good morning, I am a user and owner of a RAM 1500 year 2014 and with 90,000 km I have had the problem for the second time that the screws that hold the exhaust manifolds are cut, causing fire to come out of the engine compartment, which can cause the vehicle to catch fire, this It is a typical problem in these HEMI engines, so I was talking with other owners of RAM 1500, they should make a solution to this problem since several people including are thinking of selling the unit and looking for other brands. From now cordial greetings [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

When the truck is started the service shifter light comes on and will not let you shift the truck out of park. Then when driving down the road the light will come on and the truck will automatically shift in park and you can-€™t do anything but coast of the road to stop. It-€™s extremely hard to turn the steering to get off the road. This was fixed once at a dodge dealership and they said it was fixed and clearly it is not. This has happened to many trucks. I feel this need attention and fixed for the safety of others.

While in the process of unhitching my camping trailer, I put the truck in reverse to gently center the tow ball under the hitch when the vehicle suddenly accelerated at high RPMs and lurched backward. I braked but the engine continued racing at high speed. Braking was completely ineffective as the tires continued "burning rubber" on the pavement. My wife was helping me guide the vehicle when this occurred. The only thing that prevented an accident and serious injury to my wife and me was the trailer. The trailer's wheels were still chocked, but the sudden, forceful acceleration dislodged the jack stand and pushed the trailer back approximately 4 to 5 inches. The acceleration stopped on its own after approximately 30 seconds. This was a terrifying experience that had the potential for a tragic outcome. This problem has not been yet been diagnosed by a dealer or service center, as it just occurred a few hours ago. There were no warning lamps or any other symptoms preceding it.

Vehicle has been under multiple recall repairs. We took the vehicle to a local dealer for another recall. When they were doing their road test, the vehicle stalled and would not restart. We spent $13,000 to replace the engine. When I was discussing the issue with the local dealership, they informed me that recall W58 had previously been applied to similar Ram 1500S and would have addressed the exact issue that was happening with my vehicle. I am requesting review to have the same recall added to vehicles that are similar to mine.

My ecoDiesel engine failed after 134k miles. Does not seem like an issue but the failure rate of this engine is very high - from Boards, from Dealers, emails by FCA. Since they fail at a high rate, it puts lot of broken vehicles on the road and puts the people in the vehicle at more risk for injury. It is a safety issue. They changed oil to fix major bearing failures as evidenced in these emails and Valvoline's letter rebukes it. Their emissions scandal forced them to make the engine do something the engine can not handle. These are time bombs.

Hydraulic lifters seize up causing the vehicle to lose power. The check engine light comes on with code P0305 meaning the number five cylinder is misfiring this is due to not having enough oil going to the hydraulic lifter. I have mentioned this to the dealership and they said there is no recall on it but they have had a lot of issues and have parts readily available to fix this problem. The safety problem I am having is I do not have enough power to accelerate into traffic or highway entrances

Exhaust manifold leak due to both rear studs breaking on each side of the engine. This is my 3rd dodge ram with the 5.7 liter engine that has had this problem. The other vehicle years were a 2003 Ram 2500 and a 2013 Ram 1500. With as many complaints about this problem, I am surprised there hasn't been a fix and a recall. So far, I am 3 trucks each with the same issue. I would think that two exhaust manifolds leaking in the engine compartment would pose as a safety issue by breathing the fumes sucked into the cab. The dealer repaired this issue thanks to an extended warranty.

- Greenbrier , TN, USA

engine manifold bolt sheared off, started "ticking" noise when starts.....my research has shown many complaints about the defective bolts and h\where replaced with improved bolts on other models, ,..I called my dealership and they stated that the item is not covered because warranty expired (5 years) even though I have less then 80K miles...

Heard engine ticking sound when vehicle had 65k around. It became more and more serious as the vehicle kept aging. On a day in May 2021, I finally figured the cause of ticking sound was the exhaust manifold leak. I brought the vehicle to dealership two days ago and they told me two exhaust manifold bolts on driver side were broken, and one exhaust manifold stud on passenger side was broken. Got bolts and studs replaced with providing MOPAR parts myself. Labor cost itself is $1,190 before tax and misc. charges.

The idle dropped to 550 RPM S (revolutions per minute) which should be 900 RPM and the engine stalled out. This was caused by the crank case PCV (pressure control valve). It's an engineering design flaw in the PCV- it's working in the wrong direction. This also can cause other problems in the vacum system like brake failure and improper fuel consumption, and engine over-heating.

While driving northbound on US411 which is a fairly straight two lane paved road in gordon county ga, I pulled out to pass a slower vehicle. When the engine rpms hit 4500 the truck started to shake and loose power. No codes were thrown at the time. I was forced to slow to below the speed limit and for safety reasons couldn't complete the pass. I pulled over into the shoulder and the truck was experiencing a very rough idle. I turned of the ignition and on restart the engine felt and sounded normal. I continued home. The next day I started the truck and it threw a code. I took it to the Ram dealer, after diagnosis they said it had a bad cam and the engine needed replacement.

While driving at approx. 50 mph the engine suddenly shut off. The warning light flashed service 4WD, check engine light, and many other warning lights on the dash and electronic selector. After stopping, without power brakes working, the truck would not start. I allowed to truck to sit, with flashers on, for about 10 minutes. After the 10 minute wait, the truck started and seem to drive normally. I went directly to local dealership (sharp Dodge in pulaski, tn). The technician wasn't able to find a "code" related to the shut down. They only found indications of "voltage overload" not further defined. This occurred on April 8, 2021 on hwy 31A, approx 0600 hrs near the city of pulaski, tn 38478. Note:. the engine /long block was replaced by the same dealer AT172000 and under mopar warranty due to internal engine issues involving #5 lifter and damaged cam shaft.
