STEERING
WAS DRIVING UNDER CRUISE CONTROL AT 75MPH ON I95 NORTH IN THE MIDDLE LANE, AND NOTICED MY TRUCK STARTED SLOWING DOWN AND ENGINE HAD STALLED. POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES WENT OUT AND THERE WAS TRAFFIC COMING UP BEHIND ME IN ALL THREE LANES, SO I HAD DIFFICULTY STEERING THE TRUCK OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. ALL ELECTRONICS REMAINED ON, KEY WAS STILL IN ON POSITION, AND THERE WERE NO STATUS INDICATORS ANYWHERE ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL OR EVIC TO INDICATE THERE WAS A PROBLEM. THE FUEL GAUGE WAS STILL OVER HALF FULL. ONCE THE TRUCK CAME TO A STOP, I PUT IT BACK IN PARK AND TURNED THE KEY OFF. I WAS THEN ABLE TO START THE TRUCK BACK UP AND CONTINUE DRIVING THE REST OF THE WAY HOME WITHOUT ANOTHER INCIDENT. I TOOK THE TRUCK INTO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND ANY FAULT CODES FROM THE ECU. BECAUSE THERE WERE NO FAULT CODES FOUND, THE DEALER WAS UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO PERFORM ANY REPAIRS TO PREVENT THIS DANGEROUS CONDITION FROM RE-OCCURRING. SO, I'VE DONE SOME RESEARCH OF MY OWN ON THIS CONDITION AND FOUND THAT CHRYSLER HAS HAD IDENTICAL PROBLEMS IN OTHER VEHICLE MODELS FOR WHICH THEY ISSUED A RECALL (RE: NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 11V139000). IT SEEMS THIS PROBLEM IS CAUSED BY A LOSS OF COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE KEY FOB AND THE WIRELESS IGNITION NODE (WIN). THIS WIRELESS CONNECTION IS REQUIRED TO START THE VEHICLE, BUT FOR A GLITCH IN THE WIRELESS CONNECTION TO RESULT IN A COMPLETE ENGINE SHUTDOWN WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEED IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. I AM NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE MY TRUCK ON THE HIGHWAY UNLESS I STAY IN THE RIGHT HAND LANE. *TR

SUSPENSION
YOU CAN NOT CONTROL THE MOVEMENT OF THE TRUCK WHEN TOWING. IT WONDERS FROM SIDE TO SIDE OF THE ROAD. TOOK TO DEALER TO HAVE THE FRONT END CHECKED. IT CHECKED OK. BF GOODRICH INSTALLED 4 NEW TIRES AT 1900 MILES. TRUCK STILL ROAD WALKS WHEN TOWING. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP IT IS TO APPLY THE BRAKES. OTHERWISE, THE SWAYING MOTION OF THE TRUCK, WILL MAKE YOU LEAVE THE ROAD. I KNOW IT IS NOT THE TRAILER THAT I AM TOWING. REASON #1: I HAVE ALL THE SAFETY EQUIPMENT TO TOW THIS TRAILER PROPERLY. REASON #2: IS THAT I HOOKED THE SAME TRAILER ON MY 2009 GMC DIESEL 2500 AND THE TRAILER TOWED PERFECTLY. I DID THIS ON THE SAME ROAD, ON THE SAME DAY. THIS DODGE 2500 DIESEL LEFT THE ROAD WITH ME TWICE WHILE TOWING THE SAME TRAILER. THE FURTHER YOU DRIVE THE TRUCK, THE WORSE THE TOWING PROBLEM IS. SO FAR, DODGE CAN NOT FIND THE PROBLEM WITH THE DODGE 2500 DIESEL. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY PROBLEM. IF YOU TRY TO TOW OVER 40 MILE PER HOUR. WITH MY 2009 GMC DIESEL, I CAN TOW THIS TRAILER AT SPEEDS UP TO 70 MILES PER HOUR WITH NO PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER. IF DODGE CAN'T FIX THIS TRUCK, (A $50,000 TRUCK), I FEEL THAT I SHOULD GET A FULL REFUND OF THE PURCHASE PRICE. BECAUSE OF RIGHT NOW, IT IS DEFINITELY A LEMON. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED IF THE PROBLEM IS NOT CORRECTED. THE REASON I BOUGHT THE TRUCK WAS TO TOW WITH IT. WHICH I CAN NOT DO, BECAUSE IT IS TOO MUCH OF A SAFETY RISK AND THE OTHER DRIVERS ON THE INTERSTATE. I SINCERELY HOPE THAT YOU WILL CHECK INTO THIS MATTER. *TR
