This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Sudden, momentary (1-3 sec) deceleration accompanied by partial (?) electrical power loss (noted dashboard display blanked out during latest 2 events). Event occurred approximately 6 times from Feb 2018 purchase date through Aug 2018. Each time the vehicle was moving at highway speeds of between 70mph and 85 mph. More details are provided in the attached.pdf file (too many words to fit within the constraints of this data entry field).
I was driving out of my drive way, and my vehicle went into park by itself. It appeared a strange message on the screen saying 'car not in drive, shift to park'. also my vehicle displayed an alert message saying 'alert: Electronic throttle control system malfunction, the vehicle onboard diagnostic system has detected a malfunction'. also another alert was displayed as 'alert: Engine system malfunction'. not only did my vehicle have these malfunctions but my heated steering wheel and seats were being used by itself. I was not in control of these panels. Last, my sensors on my Ram do not function correctly, if I am pulling up close to an object my sensors will not 'beep'. only time they go off is if I hit the objects in front of me. Last but not least, my 'check engine light' was on and the temperature gauge indicated the temperature outside was below 41 F when in fact it was 65 F.
