The acceleration severely lags from a stop. When I-€™m stopped and try to go the truck hesitates and it-€™s very dangerous. This problem has been happening on and off for years. It-€™s very dangerous and unpredictable.

Safety recall R36 / NHTSA 15V-459. My truck has had the recall done and still has the exact same issues the recall was supposed to correct. I am not confident the dealer actually did the work properly or at all. My steering wheel mounted controls work intermittently and the horn rarely works but when it does it usually comes on and stays blowing until they ignition is turned off. This is a major safety concern involving the cruise control, horn, and airbag system. The only answer I get from my dealer is "the recall has been done, you'll need to pay for the work". I don't feel it is my responsibility to pay for a shoddy repair job involving a recall. Additionally, there are 4 other open recalls on my truck that the dealer "can't fit in their schedule".

Cruise control operation has become erratic while truck is in motion on a highway at 55 -66 mph.. stopped maintaining speed but also could not turn off the cruise control. Took a random series of button pushes and braking before it finally responded and turned off. Has since worked correctly at times, and failed to maintain speed at other times.

The truck has the "dead pedal" issue. If stopped at a light and you go to take off there is about a 3-5 second delay before you get power to move forward. Also, if you are driving and let off the gas pedal and then have to press the gas pedal to go again there is a long delay there as well. This is a serious safety concern when trying to merge onto a highway or pass a slow vehicle. There have been many that have filed this complaint, when does something actually start to get fixed?

The contact owns a 2014 Ram 3500. In April of 2015, while the vehicle was in reverse, the brakes malfunctioned. The contact's vehicle failed to stop and bumped into a second vehicle. There were no injuries. While driving approximately 60 mph, the brakes suddenly activated without the brake pedal being applied. During the incident, the brake sensor, ABS sensor and throttle sensor illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who replaced the brake module sensor and transmission sensor, but the failure recurred while being test driven. In November of 2015, the vehicle experienced the failure again. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who replaced the star connector. The failure recurred. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 7,000.

Was going to merge on to the freeway the car in front of me slowed down so I had to take my foot off the accelerator pedal. A hole opened in traffic and I started to change lanes pressed down on the accelerator pedal to get up to the same speed as traffic and there was a 2 to 3 second pause before the truck started to accelerate. In that time I watched the truck behind me get dangerously close and the hole I came out of closed up I had no were to go. I took the truck to the dealer and they told me that is the way the truck is suppose to work. I test drove a truck at another dealer and it did not have the same problem. Took it back to the dealer shop and they were still adamant that the truck was working correctly. I can duplicate the problem when ever I want.

I have experienced a "dead pedal" issue since owning the truck which has caused many close calls when turning in traffic, leaving a stop sign and passing. There is a several second delay before I get acceleration and the truck gets going. It has caused me to be very nervous when driving especially with family in the truck with me.

This truck has been to the dealership several times for the "dead pedal" issue. There is a 3-4 second delay from the moment you ask the truck to accelerate before there is any throttle response. And then once it does respond, the power delivery is extremely slow. I have had several near accidents when I was attempting to turn left in front of oncoming traffic, and the truck does not respond to full throttle. One time is was so bad, I thought the truck stalled, and turned on my 4 way flashers...

As I picked up my new 2014 Dodge Ram 3500 6.4, I noticed a rattle coming from in or under the dash board. I also noticed my cruise control would not work and traction light stayed on. The rattle only occurs when I am stepping on the gas and going over rough roads, I let off the gas and the rattle stops. I took it to my dealer ( dick poe Dodge, el paso, tx. ) and they found nothing with the rattle, they fixed the other issues. They heard the rattle but said they could not pin point it, they felt it might be the throttle pedal it self, but Dodge would not let them swap it out unless they were 100% sure that was the issue. So here I am still driving with the rattle. I did offer to pay for the part and my adviser said he would not allow that only cause he was not 100% sure it would fix the issue. Understand the service dept did all they could to help me, it was Dodge that tied their hands.

There is major lag between the when the throttle is applied to when the engine responds. Many are calling it "dead pedal" because the engine just doesn't respond to throttle input when pressed quickly. If the throttle is pressed slowly, the engine responds as one would expect, but in an emergency situation, where one has to stomp on the peddle, there's no response. For me, I can sometimes do a 3 count. The issue happens from a dead stop or when you are cruising. When cruising, it's easy to replicate because all you have to do it give it a little fuel, as if you're going up a small hill, let off, then stomp on it... when this is done, the engine acts as if your foot is still off the peddle for what feels like eternity. I have taken it to the dealer multiple times and each time, I'm told this is how it's suppose to be, so there is no fix... but a flash might be available in future to resolve this. The problem is, no one can confirm Ram is working on a fix.

Dangerous pour lag when accelerator is depressed. A solid two second delay when, for example, the accelerator pedal is depressed to enter an on ramp to a highway. It is not safe to have to predict when your power will be available.

While leaving the lot I go to accelrate and the truck slowly increases speed and then starts to move. This happens all the time and I took the truck into the dealership and they stated this is Chrysler torque management system. This system has almost caused me to get into a wreck twice. I know of one friend who has gotten into a wreck. I researched this issue and sure enough there are hundreds of members on Dodge and cummins forums complaining of this issue and Chrysler will not do anything about it. Here is a link to some threads. www.cumminsforum.com/forum/2013-general-discussion/1193537-quick-rant.html www.cumminsforum.com/forum/2013-general-discussion/1179305-dead-pedal.html please make Chrysler do something about this.

Traveling in right lane of 4 lane highway at 55mph. Another vehicle pulled out from the right into my lane right in front of me. I let off throttle and applied brakes. Noticed an opening in traffic in the left lane. Turned on the turn signal, started to shift lanes and applied throttle. Truck would not accelerate for what felt like 2-3 seconds. By that time the car behind me in the left lane was right on my bumper. No accident occurred, but it was a close call. I had noticed a 1-2 second throttle delay a couple times while maneuvering through traffic earlier in the day as well.
