Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2009-2012 Dodge Ram 1500 trucks currently, or ever registered, in Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia. Exposure to environmental conditions such as water mixed with road salt may cause the front fuel tank strap frame "T-Slot" bracket to corrode, possibly causing the fuel tank to drop and make contact with the ground.
If the fuel tank were to drop and contact the ground, a fuel leak may result. Additionally, in the event of a crash, the fuel tank may not remain secured to the vehicle, possibly causing a fuel leak. A fuel leak in the presence in an ignition source, can increase the risk of a fire.
Chrysler will notify owners and dealers will bolt a bracket reinforcement to the frame, free of charge. The recall began May 2, 2018. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is U04.

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Ram 3500 Cab Chassis with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of less than 10,000 lbs, 2011-2017 Ram 3500, 4500 and 5500 Cab Chassis vehicles, 2009-2017 Ram 1500 and 2010-2017 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickup trucks, all equipped with a column shifter. Pushing the brake pedal for prolonged periods when the vehicle is running and in PARK may cause the Brake Transmission Shift Interlock (BTSI) pin to stick in the open position. With the pin in the open position, the transmission can be shifted out of PARK into any gear without pushing the brake pedal or having the key in the ignition.
Being able to shift the transmission without pushing the brake pedal and/or without a key in the ignition can increase the risk of an unintended vehicle rollaway that may result in personal injury or a crash.
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will update the vehicle software, inspect the BTSI, and, as necessary, replace it, free of charge. The recall began February 26, 2018. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is T79.

Chrysler is recalling certain model year 2009-2012 Ram 1500 trucks manufactured from February 27, 2008, through June 30, 2009, and from December 1, 2009, through October 20, 2011; model year 2009-2011 Dodge Dakota trucks manufactured from February 27, 2007, through June 30, 2009, and from December 1, 2009, through September 30, 2011; model year 2009 Chrysler Aspen trucks manufactured from January 3, 2008, through December 18, 2008; and model year 2009 Dodge Durango trucks manufactured from January 3, 2008, through December 18, 2008. The rear axle pinion nut may loosen due to an undersized pinion spline that can allow relative motion between the nut and companion flange.
If the rear axle pinion nut loosens, the axle can lock up and cause a loss of vehicle control and/or a vehicle crash with little warning.
On November 7, 2013 Chrysler notified owners that dealers would install a pinion nut retainer, free of charge. In July 2015, and under a consent order with NHTSA, the company agreed to offer owners three options for remedying their vehicles: perform the original remedy, offer to repurchase the vehicle at the fair market value plus 10%, or offer an additional incentive offer towards the purchase of a new Dodge, Jeep, Chrysler, or Fiat vehicle. Chrysler will notify owners of the new recall options in a letter expected to be mailed on August 31, 2015. Owners may contact Chrysler at 1-800-247-9753. Chrysler's recall campaign number is N08.

FIRST I NOTICED A TICK IN THE ENGINE WHEN STARTING IT COLD. TURNED OUT TO BE BROKEN EXHAUST MANIFOLD STUDS AND CRACKED MANIFOLDS ON BOTH SIDES. PASSENGER SIDE WAS WORSE. WAS REPLACED WITH GRADE 8 BOLTS AND NEW MANIFOLDS AND GASKETS. NOW I HAVE A DIAGNOSED LIFTER FAILURE AT 58,000 MILES AND IT IS ONLY GETTING LOUDER. IT HONESTLY SOUNDS LIKE A SPUN CAM SEAL AND FLAT LIFTER IN MY EXPERIENCE. DODGE WILL NOT REMEDY THE PROBLEM AS I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE OUT OF POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. MANY MORE ARE HAVING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE WITH LIFTER FAILURE. IT IS KNOCKING HARD. THIS IS THE DESCRIBED "HEMI" TICK. THE CAMSHAFTS AND LIFTERS ARE LOW GRADE MATERIAL IN THIS MODEL. I HAVE REPORTS OF DIAGNOSIS IF NEEDED.

MY TRUCK WOULD CRANK BUT NOT START SOMETIMES AFTER BEING PARKED FOR A WHILE. I THOUGHT IT MAY HAVE BEEN FROM THE HUMIDITY. IT WILL CRANK AND NOT START A COUPLE OF TIMES MORE OFTEN NOW. WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY SOMETIMES, IT WILL SPUTTER FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS. I THOUGHT IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN FROM HAVING A LITTLE WATER IN THE GASOLINE FROM THE ETHANOL. I'VE BEEN USING FUEL INJECTOR CLEANER AND SEAFOAM EVERY SO OFTEN SINCE 2014. THE TRUCK IS 6 YEARS OLD. I'VE BEEN READING ABOUT HOW OTHERS HAVE BEEN HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL PUMP RELAY GOING BAD ON THE SAME YEAR MODEL VEHICLE AND OTHER MAKE/MODELS BY DODGE.

THE TRUCK BURNS THROUGH OIL AT A HIGH RATE AND AFTER IT DOES THEIR IS NO LOW OIL LIGHT BEING TURNED ON BY THE TRUCK. THE TRUCK RAN HOT AND MADE THE CAM POSITION SENSOR FAIL. I AM AFRAID IT WILL BURN EVEN MORE AND CAUSE PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE AND SENSOR FAILURE WHICH IS NOT COVER BY WARRANTIES. THE LAST TIME IN A MONTH IT BURNED THROUGH 4 QUARTS, THE DEALER SAID IF THEY DO NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG THEY WOULD CHARGE ME A DIAGNOSTIC FEE. I HAVE HAD MANY OLD DODGE TRUCKS AND EVEN A 2007 RAM WHICH ALWAYS HAD OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES AND THAT NEVER BURNED THROUGH SO MUCH OIL. THIS HAPPENS AS I DRIVE AND NEVER ONCE DOES IT SAY LOW OIL, THE ONLY REASON I FIGURED IT OUT IS I AM MECHANICALLY INCLINE AND OBSERVED THE OIL PRESSURE DROP DOWN TO 14PS ON THE TRUCKS INFORMATION CONSOL. ALSO THE TRUCK HAD GONE INTO A MODE WHERE THE THROTTLE DID NOT RESPOND AND THE TRUCK WOULD NOT DOWN SHIFT. ALL THIS HAPPENS AT THE SAME TIME AND IF IT HAPPENS ON A HIGHWAY MAY CAUSE A CRASH BECAUSE THE TRUCK DOES NOT SHIFT PROPERLY ALONG WITH NO OIL THE ENGINE WILL FAIL.

MY TRUCK STARTED OUT WITH A DEAD BATTERY WHICH I REPLACED AND IT STARTED IN 9/16. AROUND 12/17/16 I WAS PARKED IN MY TRUCK TALKING TO MY NEIGHBOR WHEN I DECIDED TO TURNOFF TRUCK AND GET OUT OF TRUCK. I TURNED THE KEYFOB TO OFF POSITION ONLY TO HAVE IT STAY RUNNING, I THAN TURNED KEYFOB BACK TO ON POSITION THAN BACK OFF WHERE IT SHUT OFF. I PULLED INTO DRIVEWAY SAME DAY AND THAN THE KEYFOB STUCK IN OFF POSITION WITH TRUCK STILL RUNNING. MY HUSBAND GO IN IT AND STARTED TO FOOL AROUND WITH IT PUTTING IT INTO NEUTRAL THAN PARK THAN REVERSE AND IT FINALLY CAME OUT. 1/11/ 17 I STARTED TRUCK NOTICED TIPM LIGHT ON AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ON. I PULLED OUT OF DRIVEWAY THE TIPM LIGHT WENT OUT BUT THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT STAYED ON THE WHOLE ENTIRE TIME I WAS DRIVING IT. THEN I GOT HOME AND THE KEY LITERAL FELL OUT WHILE DRIVING IT AND I LOST ALL POWER. WHEN MY HUSBAND CAME TO MY RESCUE THE TRUCK STARTED JUST FINE AND HE DROVE IT HOME ONLY TO HAVE TURNED THE KEYFOB TO OFF POSITION AND PULL OUT THE KEYFOB AND HAVE THE TRUCK STILL RUNNING. HE HAD TO PULL THE 5AMP #27 FUSE AND DISCONNECT THE BATTERY IN ORDER TO TURN IT OFF. BROUGHT TO DEALER ONLY TO BE TOLD NO RECALL ISSUES, THAT THEY THINK IT HAS SOMETHING TO DUE WITH MY AFTER MARKET STEREO THAT WAS PUT IN OVER 5 YEARS AGO. THE ADVISOR CALLED ME AFTER HAVING TO TRUCK FOR 3 DAY TO TELL ME TECH NEEDS ANOTHER 4 HOURS WITH IT AND IT WAS GOING TO BE 600.00 ONTOP OF THE 150.00 I ALREADY OWED . I ASKED TO SPEAK TO MANAGER WHO COULD NOT TELL ME THAT THEY RULED ANYTHING ELSE OUT WOULD NOT EVEN GIVE ME A PRINTOUT OF WHAT WAS DONE. I ASKED ABOUT THE TIPM AND HE LOOKED AT ME LIKE I WAS CRAZY. I WILL BE TAKING VEHICLE OUT WITH NO REPAIRS AND TOLD THEM IF I CRASH AND KILL SOMEONE OR MYSELF THEIR HEADS ARE GOING TO ROLL, THIS IS DEFINITELY A DANGEROUS SITUATION. *TR

I HAVE A 5.7 HEMI. IT HAS A BAD TICKING SOUND ON BOTH SIDES AND IS MISFIRING ON #8 CYLINDER. I CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT AND AFTER RESEARCHING ABOUT IT THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE 5.7 HEMI.

DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC AND MY ENGINE DIED. I COULD NOT GET OUT OF THE TRAFFIC LANE AND MY TRUCK CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. ENGINE CRANKED, BUT WOULD NOT START.

NEXT MORNING TRUCK WOULD NOT START, I SPRAYED STARTING FLUID IN AIR INTAKE AND IT TRIES TO START, SO I AM GUESSING FUEL PROBLEMS. TRUCK STARTED AFTER MUCH CRANKING, BUT DON'T TRUST IT, NOT SAFE TO GO ON FREEWAY AND CAUSE ANOTHER SCARY SITUATION. RESEARCH TELLS ME THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM.
