What owners report

Owners of the 2014 Ram 1500 most often describe losing power steering assist, sometimes while driving at speed, followed by fuel-level sensor failures that leave the gauge reading empty. A third recurring theme is the 3.0L EcoDiesel, where owners report stalls, hard starts and long waits for recall parts. Complaints are spread widely in mileage, from under 30,000 to well past 150,000 miles, with many clustered in the 60,000-130,000 range.

Steering
Electric power steering assist cuts out
- 478 complaints (27%)
- median 92,000 mi at 7.5 yrs old (159 state mileage)
- 21 mention a crash, fire or injury
- owner-quoted repair $3,045 (median of 55 quotes)
- filed 2014–2026
Complaints describe the power steering warning appearing and steering effort suddenly increasing, sometimes while driving at highway speed and sometimes right after start-up. Some owners say restarting the truck restores assist temporarily, and others report it staying off. Dealers in the complaints often diagnosed a faulty steering rack or steering column assembly, and several owners were told the parts were backordered. Reported from about 50,000 to 170,000 miles, appearing both on start-up and at speed.
What to check: On a test drive, watch for a power steering warning message and ask whether the rack or steering column has been replaced; listen for uneven or heavy steering at low speed.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“While driving my truck on old ga2 a two lane county maintained gravel road. The electric power steering quit without warning when I was entering a switchback curve.the sudden loss of power steering almost forced me off the the road. It was physically all I could do to keep the truck on the road. Anyone with less upper body strength would have gone off the mountain.”
NHTSA complaint #11414394, filed 2021-04, 111,500 miles
“I was driving down the road going 50mph the power steering failure light came on the dash screen and the power steering completely failed. I was unable to steer the truck and was very close to hitting another vehicle. I turn the vehicle off and then back on the power steering was working again. I continue to drive down the road and once again at a speed of fifty miles per hour the steering failed completely and again I almost went down into a ditch. It has happened several different times during several different actions. …”

Fuel system
EcoDiesel stalls, hard starts and recall part delays
- 651 complaints (37%)
- median 70,000 mi at 5.7 yrs old (335 state mileage)
- 35 mention a crash, fire or injury
- owner-quoted repair $2,400 (median of 75 quotes)
- filed 2014–2026
Owners of the 3.0L diesel describe stalling at low and highway speeds, loss of motive power, and trucks that fail to restart, with the high-pressure fuel pump and related fuel system parts named in diagnoses. Many complaints center on recall notices arriving while parts stayed unavailable, leaving trucks at dealers or unrepaired for extended periods. Some report repeated fuel pump and emissions-system repairs without a lasting fix. Reported from about 50,000 to 175,000 miles, across a range of driving speeds.
Recall 22V406000 Recall 23V411000 Recall 20V475000 Recall 19V757000
What to check: Confirm which of the diesel-related recalls have actually been completed on the truck, with paperwork, and ask whether the high-pressure fuel pump or EGR cooler has been replaced.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“I have been waiting on this recall for almost a year on my EGR cooler and no dealer can get one to replace it. I know that covid 19 has caused production problem but, a year is too long! This vehicle should be replaced at full value for what I have gone through with it. I have filled out all forms and submitted properly on the reimbursement of loss from chrysler. I still have received no check for that. I call the dealer often and get no response other than that the part has been backordered and not available. …”
NHTSA complaint #11373820, filed 2020-11, 50,000 miles
“The contact owns a 2014 Ram 1500. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, an unknown message was displayed, and the vehicle lost motive power and stalled. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where the fuel pump was replaced; however, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) tank injector was replaced; however, the failure recurred. …”

Fuel system
Fuel level gauge reads wrong or empty
- 121 complaints (7%)
- median 63,000 mi at 6.0 yrs old (85 state mileage)
- 1 mention a crash, fire or injury
- owner-quoted repair $900 (median of 14 quotes)
- filed 2016–2026
Owners describe the fuel gauge dropping to empty while the tank is still partly full, an intermittent or steady check engine light, and a fuel level sensor fault message. Several say the gauge works only between full and about three-quarters, so they track mileage to avoid running out. Complaints mention the repair requiring the tank or bed to be removed, and dealers reportedly described it as a recurring issue. Mostly reported between roughly 45,000 and 100,000 miles.
What to check: Fill the tank and watch whether the gauge holds near full for the first stretch of driving; ask whether the fuel level sensor or sending unit has been replaced.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“Fuel pump sensor is no longer working. Truck has 95k miles on it and hasn't been working for the past 500 miles or so. Check engine light has come on and also my fuel gauge comes on and off constantly. I was driving home from grocery store and check engine light came on. Checked at local auto store and said I had a fuel pump that had gone bad.”
NHTSA complaint #11326081, filed 2020-05, 95,000 miles
“Fuel sensor failure at 45,000 miles. Same complaint as so many others. Full tank will display as full on gauge. After only 20-30 miles the gauge drops to empty and I have no idea how much fuel is in the tank until I'm stranded on the side of the road. Must watch odometer and hope I make it to fill the tank without any mistakes.”
NHTSA complaint #11329458, filed 2020-06, 45,000 miles

Engine
Broken exhaust manifold or engine bolts
- 145 complaints (8%)
- median 76,000 mi at 5.3 yrs old (93 state mileage)
- 16 mention a crash, fire or injury
- owner-quoted repair $3,400 (median of 17 quotes)
- filed 2014–2026
Complaints describe a ticking or knocking sound from the engine bay, exhaust leaks, and broken exhaust manifold bolts, with owners saying the bolts break repeatedly and the repair is done more than once. Some report the noise progressing to misfires and, in a few cases, camshaft or lifter damage found afterward. Dealers and independent shops identified broken bolts and, in the more involved cases, internal engine damage. Reported from about 30,000 to 160,000 miles, usually noticed as a new tick or knock.
What to check: Listen for a tick or exhaust leak at cold start and after a drive; ask whether manifold bolts or exhaust gaskets have been replaced and whether any misfire codes have been stored.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“The lifters on the 2 cyl. That shut off to save fuel failed and ruined the cam shaft. This happened on my 2010 and now on my 2014. It started by skipping an lower rpms as you speed up or on an incline and then one day it set a check engine lite and skipped all the time.”
NHTSA complaint #11301023, filed 2020-01, 165,000 miles
“My truck had a check engine light appear that said fuel injection lower than expected. When I would crank it up, you could hear the engine running harder than it should with an audible constant knock. I made a couple stops and it shut off on me just before the second stop. I tried cranking it up again, and it started, but took awhile to start. After that, I was traveling down the road at approximately 50 MPH when I heard a loud boom from under the hood. My truck shut down on me in traffic. …”

Transmission and drivetrain
Rough or delayed transmission shifting
- 178 complaints (10%)
- median 44,165 mi at 3.8 yrs old (138 state mileage)
- 16 mention a crash, fire or injury
- owner-quoted repair $3,050 (median of 14 quotes)
- filed 2013–2026
Owners describe the transmission jerking or hesitating between gears during acceleration and shuddering or vibrating at highway speed, sometimes with a service transmission message. A few report the truck slipping into neutral while driving. Complaints mention dealer diagnoses reaching from software or code-related service to internal transmission and differential parts. Reported from about 40,000 to 130,000 miles.
Recall 14V161000 Recall 17V821000 2 related service bulletins
What to check: Drive at steady highway speed and through 2-3 and 3-4 upshifts to feel for shudder or delay; ask whether transmission software updates or repairs have been performed.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“At 70 - 76 miles per hour the truck starts to vibrate. Had the front drive shaft replaced part number 938-095 10 months ago and it stopped . Here we are 10 months later and it is back.”
NHTSA complaint #11373685, filed 2020-11, 108,000 miles
“The contact owns a 2014 Ram 1500. The contact stated while driving approximately 20 MPH the vehicle inadvertently shifted into neutral. The service light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 125,000.”
NHTSA complaint #11461391, filed 2022-04, 125,000 miles

Buying note. Check that the diesel-related recalls were completed with documentation and test the power steering, fuel gauge and transmission behavior on a longer drive, since these are the areas owners describe most. A pre-purchase inspection focused on steering, fuel system and engine noises is worthwhile on a truck of this age and mileage.

Summary written with AI from a sample of 60 NHTSA complaints for this model year (picked at random, with complaints that state a mileage and recent ones taken first), then checked automatically against the source records. Where a problem shows a complaint count, every complaint for this model year was matched with fixed keyword rules (written with AI and tested against the sample), and the mileage, age and repair figures are calculated from those complaints; owners' figures are as stated, not verified. Other counts refer to the sample.

Example complaints

Steering: “Power steering went completely out on my 2014 dodge Ram 1500. It locked up on me and almost caused a crash. Fortunately I was able to avoid that. I don't understand why dodge has no recall on this as the more I read about it, it was common issue on 2013,2014 and 2015 s model year. To me this is a definite safety issue. When it locks up you cannot steer the vehicle.”

NHTSA complaint #11399156, filed 2021-03, 132,000 miles

Engine: “I was driving and the truck started to idle high and then blew a big cloud of smoke like it was on fire I shut it off and it would not restart. I took it back to where I bought it to have the warranty fix it but they are stating there is an open recall for the intake manifold catching fire and will not fix it and there is no fix for a based on the recall info”

NHTSA complaint #11281406, filed 2019-11, 130,000 miles

Fuel system: “My truck continues to light up saying that the fuel cap is loose. I believe that there was a former recall about a crack and engine coolant gas getting into the system, and this was never fixed properly. Also, the airbag light continues to come on, and there was a former recall about that and it was never fixed. These are all while stationary.”

NHTSA complaint #11387365, filed 2021-01, 75,000 miles

Electrical system: “Error code p0463: fuel level sensor circuit high input, this means my fuel gauge is experiencing failures and I can not accurately determine how much fuel is in the vehicle. Doing a quick google search, this appears to be a very common issue with the 2014 Ram 1500 5.7l. I'm at roughly 68500 mile on my truck so the issue is also out of warranty.”
