When slowing down to turn at a intersection right or left the truck has stalledout 10 times in less the 4000 miles. The engine shuts off and the emergency brake comes on. So you have to shift back to park restart then release the emergency brake and then pray the car behind you stops without hitting you.been to dodge dealer twice and they have no clue how to fix it. It's a 5.7 hemi etorque engine.internet lawyers say this engine has had this problem since 2019 with no fix.they shouldn't be allowed to sell the truck with this motor type

Dashboard falling apart and RAM won't fix

This is my second 1500 Limited and I love the way they ride. The first one had 150K miles and no major issues. I upgraded to a 2019 to get some of the new safety features. Unfortunately, this truck has had multiple issues the most irritating of which is a dashboard that delaminated at 36K miles. Even my little podunk dealer said it was an issue and has seen several with this problem. Ram said it was out of warranty and basically too bad. I didn't pay 60K for a truck for it to fall apart in 2 years. Knowing that this is a well known issue I have been waiting for them to actually man up and fix the issue, but no such luck. I Have spoken with RAM several times and they could care less. You can't even order the part if you did want t pay the $2K to have it replaced. Pathetic customer service from RAM.

So far with 700 miles: * Drives and handles well. * 3.0 V6 Turbo Ecodiesel engine is whisper quiet and has good starting acceleration. * Mileage reached so far is 28.2 mpg; optional 33Gal tank is a game changer. * Cabin is quiet at highway speeds. * Rambox system is definitely a great option. * UConnect Nav with 8.4 inches screen so far easy and responsive to use...still learning. So far with 2900 miles: * in addition to driving/handling well, it’s very confortable & has lots of storage * enjoy the center console features & comes with a safe * definitely ramboxes are woth the xtra cost In general infotaiment is fast, easy to use, pravtical & screens are very crisp * low lights: doesn’t come with lockable fueling door and light controls knob is hard to access & can’t even read at a glance

Infotainment is horrible

I have gone on Dodge forums, done resets of the system and everything in between. The system is still glitchy, to the point where I just use the radio now. My 2015 Ford had a more reliable infotainment.

Not so fast

Based on Consumer Reports and other reviews of the Ram 1500, we bought a 2022 limited, TH, anniversary edition, replacing a Lexus 460 ( the most hated SUV). The ride, handling, fuel economy, and performance are exceptional. It has more storage than my house, and has been a terrific vehicle to drive our dogs, stuff and us from the east to the west coast. We love and use Apple Play, when it works. Seat comfort and adjustability are good. We almost like everything about our ruck, but: Two mechanical issues recently have been disheartening. First, at the first stop sign at the end of our road, the truck shut its engine off and applied the parking brake, all on its own. The instrument panel indicated the battery was not charging. Fortunately we got it started, got it home, recharged the battery, and took it to the dealer. It turns out there was a service bulletin on topic, and a flash memory upgrade supposedly fixed the problem. Second, we were on I-70 in Pa just over the Md line, on Easter Sunday when the alternator quit, barely giving us enough time to pull over to safety before the engine stopped. A kind state trooper helped us find a tow truck after 4 hours of trying to get one through AAA and Mopar. After being towed to the Chrysler dealer in Bedford and dropped at a hotel, we ascertained that no one stocked the part, delivery was three to five days, but one to two for an expedite fee. A routine warranty repair became quite expensive with towing, accommodations, meals, cabs and an expedite fee. The verdict, we are very concerned about reliability. Software problems, a spent alternator in the first 20,000 miles. What’s next. For many years Lexus/Toyota was my go to, and I never had issues during the first few years of ownership. Maybe Lexus will finally upgrade the 460 to be competitive. Our model does not pop up below.
