Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The truck was recalled and a temporary weld was placed on the front steering alignment until parts could be obtained for a permanent fix. Now it shows as repaired but a permanet repair was never made. I can not align my steering because it is welded. At the very least this will cause uneven tire wear and premature replacement”
NHTSA complaint #11395809, filed 2021-02, 54,000 miles“Many consumers are referring to the issue as death wobble . At highway speeds (50+) any slight bump will cause a violent wobble in the steering. There was a safety recall (r46) for 2013-2014s and chrysler indicated they took care of the issue but I am having the same issue with my 2015 Ram 3500 laramie longhorn. In addition, the truck goes thru front tires in 10-15k miles.”
NHTSA complaint #11114148, filed 2018-07, 5,000 miles“I was towing my travel trailer and entered a slight left turn at approximately 50mph when my front driver side tire started to shake/wobble uncontrollably. I slowed down and it stopped. Dealership replaced both front hubs and bearings. When I hit a small bump while turning and not towing, it still shakes/wobbles uncontrollably. I notified dealership about it and they still failed to make the repair. The vehicle is still under warranty.”
NHTSA complaint #11398518, filed 2021-03, 41,000 miles“My 2015 Ram 3500 has gone through 3 wheel alignment within a year 12000 miles. I also been getting a lot of bad fumes in cab where you have to open windows at around 20 to 40 MPH or when you start truck while warming up in cold weather. I had wheels rotated and the TPMS where reading wrong. It was not connecting with system in truck had to take to dealer to reset.”
NHTSA complaint #10936561, filed 2016-12, 10,000 miles“While driving the truck and turning slightly left, I hit a small bump on the road and my truck started vibrating uncontrollably and I lost the ability to steer the vehicle. The vehicle vibrated so hard that I slid across other lanes of traffic to my right without being able to steer. I brought the vehicle to a complete stop on the side of the road. After the complete stop, I was able to drive and steer the vehicle. Since this incident happened, I have had the same issue happen when I'm driving while turning and hitting a bump. …”
