TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 DODGE RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED. AFTER RESTARTING THE ENGINE, THE VEHICLE WOULD OPERATE AS NORMAL. THE CONTACT ALSO INDICATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD INTERMITTENTLY DIM AND THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE TAIL LIGHT FAILED CAUSING THE BULB TO BE REPLACED. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES, THE VEHICLE WOULD SOMETIMES JERK FORWARD AND A SECTION OF THE DASHBOARD WOULD DETACH AND FALL TO THE FLOOR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 168,859.
IGNITION AND KEY ARE DEFECTIVE. IGNITION KEY CAN BE REMOVED FROM VEHICLE IGNITION DURING VEHICLE OPERATION. IGNITION KEY FELL OUT OF IGNITION WHILE DRIVING. IGNITION KEY CAN BE REMOVED FROM IGNITION WHILE VEHICLE IS RUNNING AND IN MOTION. VEHICLE SOMETIMES DOES NOT NEED THE KEY IN THE IGNITION TO START THE ENGINE. IF THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING THE KEY CAN BE VERY EASILY PULLED OUT OF THE IGNITION ASSEMBLY, THE KEY JUST SLIPS RIGHT OUT OF THE IGNITION. CHRYSLER HAS BEEN NOTIFIED AND THEIR RESPONSE IS THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY. I ASKED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE TO FORWARD THE COMPLAINT TO A HIGHER UP PERSON IN CHRYSLER AND WAS TOLD THAT AFTER MY PHONE CALL, THAT WAS THE END OF THE ISSUE AND CHRYSLER TAKES NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PROBLEM CONCERNING A DEFECTIVE IGNITION SWITCH. I SPOKE TO CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE AT (800) 334-9200. THE APPROXIMATE INCIDENT DATE IS APPROXIMATE AND THE PROBLEM STARTED SIX YEARS AGO AND THE PROBLEM IS ONGOING THROUGH TODAY. AN INTERNET SEARCH YIELDS COUNTLESS OTHER COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME SUBJECT MATTER. THE CONDITION IS UNSAFE AND PLEASE LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM. THANK YOU. *TR
SOFT METAL AROUND PISTONS CAUSED ENGINE TO FAIL AND I HAD TO REPLACE THE ENGINE. *TR
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 DODGE RAM 1500. THE STATED THAT HE HAD TO REPLACE THE WATER PUMP DUE TO LEAKAGE. THREE YEARS LATER THE SHAFT BEARING IN THE WATER PUMP FAILED, WHICH CAUSED THE SERPENTINE BELTS TO BREAK. ENGINE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING INCREASES THE RISK OF VEHICLE CRASH. HE SPECULATES THAT THE WATER PUMP HOUSING HAS BEEN SAND GLASSED. HE THEN ADDED THAT THE WATER PUMP MATERIAL WAS ALUMINUM, WHICH EVENTUALLY DEGRADES AND CAUSES THE FAILURE. HE REPLACED THE WATER PUMP AGAIN BUT THE REPAIR WAS INSUFFICIENT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE 70,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 147,000.
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 DODGE RAM 1500. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE FINALLY RESTARTED AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. PRIOR TO THE FAILURE, THE OXYGEN SENSORS AND TEMPERATURE GAUGE WERE REPLACED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE DEALER AGAIN AND THEY ATTEMPTED TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 59,800.
WHILE HAULING APPROX. 4000LBS HORSE TRAILER, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND I WAS BARELY ABLE TO KEEP THE TRUCK TRAVELING AT 20MPH. I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER HAD FAILED, RESULTING IN A BLOCKAGE OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. APPARENTLY, CHRYSLER HAD RECALLED 1.9 MILLION OF THESE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS BECAUSE OF THE EXACT PROBLEM, BUT AFTER I CONTACTED CHRYSLER, THEY SAID MY VIN WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. I SPENT OVER $800 TO REPLACE MISCELLANEOUS EXHAUST COMPONENTS AS A RESULT OF THIS FAILURE. *TR
TL* - THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN SHE GOT INTO HER 1999 DODGE RAM 1500 (FAILURE MILEAGE: 100000) THE SEAT BELTS WERE RETRACTED AND LOCKED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOP AND THEY NOTIFIED HER OF THE RECALL ON THE RETRACTOR. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THEY WERE NOT AWARE OF THE RECALL AND ASKED HER TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT. *JB UPDATED 2/22/2007 - BOTH FRONT SEAT BELT WERE LOCKED IN THE RETRACTED POSITION AND COULD NOT BE USED. THE SEAT BELT LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH. THE WATER PUMP HAS BEEN REPLACED. THE AIR CONDITIONING HAS BEEN REPLACED. THE BRAKE LINES HAVE BEEN REPLACED. THE REAR END HAS BEEN REPLACED. THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW WOULD NOT ROLL DOWN. *NM
I OWN A 1999 DODGE RAM REGULAR TRUCK WITH SHORT BED AND IT ACCELERATED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. AT FIRST I THOUGHT I HIT THE CRUISE CONTROL BY MISTAKE, BUT I CHECKED AND CRUISE THE LIGHT WAS OFF. IT ENGINE KEPT RAMMING AND HITTING HIGH SPEEDS AND I COULD NOT STOP THE VEHICLE AND I ALMOST CRASHED INTO OTHER CARS. I MANAGED TO PULL OFF AT AN EXIT AND PUT ON THE BRAKES AS HARD AS I COULD, BUT IT DID NOT STOP THE TRUCK. EVENTUALLY, I HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK WHILE DRIVING. EVENTUALLY THE CAR STOPPED AND I IMMEDIATELY TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. MY MOTHER (WHO WAS VISITING ME AND HAVEN'T SEEN IN 5 YEARS) WAS FRIGHTENED. AND SO WAS I. I CHECKED THE COOLANT AND IT HAD RAN OUT. IT WAS JUST CHECKED A FEW WEEKS AGO. I HAD IT RECHECKED AND IT HAD NO LEAKS. ANYWAY, I EVENTUALLY WALKED TO A GAS STATION AND BOUGHT MORE COOLANT (FIGURING THIS HAD TO BE THE PROBLEM). IT DID NOT HELP THE SITUATION IMMEDIATELY. I WAITED FOR 30 MINUTES AND TRIED STARTING THE CAR ONCE MORE AND IT WAS OKAY AND I DROVE OFF. I CALLED THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT IN. WILL IT COST ME IF THE PROBLEM IS UNDER RECALL? *JB
DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 65MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE OPERATED AT A REDUCED SPEED. THE VEHICLE WAS SEEN BY AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP FOR INSPECTION. THE MECHANIC DETERMINED THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER HAD FAILED ADDITIONALLY, BLOWING THE HEAD GASKET. THE MECHANIC SUGGESTED REPLACING BOTH THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND HEAD GASKET TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM.
1).WE WERE DRIVING ALONG WHEN THE TRUCK, WE JUST GOT SUDDENLY DIED. THE GAS GAUGE SHOWED 1/4 OF A TANK. IT IS A SINGLE TANK TRUCK, BUT IT WAS OUT OF GAS. WHEN MORE WAS ADDED IT STARTED UP AND RAN. 2). A HEAVY RAIN FELL , MY SONS CARSEAT (LATCHED IN THE BACK SEAT OF THE QUAD CAB) WAS SO WET THE NEXT DAY I HAD TO WASH AND DRY THE PADDING BEFORE IT COULD BE USED. THE WINDOWS WERE SHUT, LOCKED TIGHT AND PARKED ALL NIGHT. 3). MY HUSBAND WAS COMING FROM WORK A DRUNK DRIVER SUDDENLY PULLED IN FRONT OF HIM. TRYING EVERYTHING TO STOP MY HUSBANDS TRUCK HIT HIS. THE AIR BAGS (NONE OF THEM) WENT OFF! THEY WERE "ON" AT THE TIME OF IMPACT. MY HUSBAND WAS GOING AROUND 45 MILES PER HOUR.4). AS MY HUSBAND STARTED TO WORK THE TRUCK SUDDENLY OVER REVVED AND DIED. IT WAS SAID THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. IT WAS LATER FOUND IT WAS A SENSOR WENT OUT. NEW SENSOR FIXED IT FOR ABOUT A DAY AND A HALF. 5). TRUCK SHIFTED FUNNY, LOST ALL OIL PRESSURE, AND DIED THE MOTOR FAILED. WHEN IT WAS OPENED UP THE CYLINDER WALLS WERE NOT ASSEMBLED RIGHT AT THE FACTORY IT IS A SURPRISE IT EVEN MADE IT TO 87 THOUSAND MILES IN THE FIRST PLACE. THE XXX WALL PATTERN WAS HIGHLY VISIBLE AND NEVER WORN SMOOTH AS IT SHOULD HAVE IF IT WERE RUNNING PROPERLY FROM THE START. SOME OF THE PIECES ARE "MISSING" ALSO IN THIS MOTOR OTHERS ARE IMPROPERLY ALIGNED. WHEN HE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP IT WAS OUT OF BUSINESS AND THE DODGE COMPANY SAYS YOU BOUGHT IT YOU GOT IT . NOT EVEN 90 THOUSAND MILES ON IT . NOW WE ARE STUCK WITH THE FINANCIAL BURDEN OF PAYING FOR MY CAR PAYMENT( AS TO SHUFFLE THE KIDS AROUND), HIS REPLACEMENT CAR (AS TO GET TO WORK 30+ MILES AWAY), AND THIS PILE OF MISTAKES IN A SHELL THAT IS SUPPOSE TO BE HIS TRUCK . THIS DOES NOT EVEN MENTION THE BURDEN OF THE COST WE ARE SUFFERING FROM TO RE BUILD THIS THING TO WORKING ORDER AGAIN . TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE; THIS IS JUST THE STUFF HE HAS TOLD ME ABOUT SO FAR, MORE IS BEING FOUND WRONG EVERY TIME HE CHECKS IN ON IT. *JB
CHRYSLER CORP FACTORY INSTALLED AN ODD, DEFECTIVE A/C COMPRESSOR UNIT WITH A HOUSING THAT DISINTEGRATED, CREATING A LARGE HOLE AND SPREAD METAL PARTICLES THROUGHOUT THE SYSTEM. BECAUSE THIS PART WAS ONE OF ONLY A FEW ODD ONES INSTALLED, A NEW ONE HAD TO BE PURCHASED AT THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AT A COST OF $700, WHICH IS MORE THAN 3 TIMES COST OF PART INSTALLED IN MAJORITY OF VEHICLES THAT YEAR. AN ADDITIONAL $632 HAD TO BE PAID TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP TO CLEAR THE SYSTEM OF METAL DEBRIS AND REPLACE PARTS DAMAGED. I CONSIDER THEIR DECEIVING THE CONSUMER BY PUTTING IN ODD, POOR QUALITY (AND EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE) PARTS WITHOUT DISCLOSING IT, FRAUDULENT AND DISHONEST. WHEN A VEHICLE IS MADE, THE PARTS INSTALLED SHOULD BE THE SAME FROM THE FIRST ONE OFF THE ASSEMBLY TO THE VERY LAST ONE, SO THAT THE COST TO REPLACE IS FAIR AND AFFORDABLE TO THE BUYER. I HAVE SENT DOCUMENTATION, PICTURES, AND RECEIPTS AND REQUESTED REIMBURSEMENT (WHICH THEY HAVE REFUSED TO DO) OF THE COSTS I HAVE INCURRED BECAUSE OF THEIR FRAUDULENT PRACTICES WHEN CONCERNED ABOUT MAKING MORE PROFIT. APPRECIATE YOUR ASSISTANCE WITH THIS MATTER. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

1999 DODGE RAM EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES AND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER.*MR 1 YEAR OLD AND NOT ON REPOSITORY. WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED A LIGHT ON THE DASH ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER STATED THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER MECHANIC, WHO STATED HE WAS SOLD A VEHICLE WITH NO BRAKES. THE MECHANIC STATED THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO FRONT BRAKES WITH SHIMS, FRONT ROTORS, TWO FRONT CALIPERS, BEARINGS, TWO REAR SHOES, TWO REAR HARDWARE, TWO DRUMS AND TWO REAR WHEEL CYLINDERS. THE VEHICLE JERKED WHEN THE CONSUMER PLACED THE GEAR INTO REVERSE. THE FRONT WHEEL ON THE DRIVERS SIDE WOULD SHAKE WHEN THE CONSUMER HIT A POTHOLE. THE WINDOWS WOULD FOG WITH A GREASY FILM, THE HEATING COIL WAS REPLACED. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE 02 SENSOR WAS REPLACED. THE PCV VALVE HOSE WAS REPLACED, THE LEFT BRAKE LIGHT BULB WAS REPLACED, 4 INJECTORS WERE REPLACED. *JB
I HAVE OWNED TWO 1999 DODGE RAM 1500 PICKUPS. ONE HAD A 5.9L AND ONE HAD A 5.2L. BOTH VEHICLES EXPERIENCED A FAILURE OF THE VENTILATION SERVO (SWITCHES COLD-WARM-HOT AIR MIX) AND BOTH EXPERIENCE CRACKED HEADS. ALL OCCURRENCES HAPPENED BETWEEN 90,000 MILES AND 100,000 MILES. AS FOR THE CRACKED HEADS NEITHER VEHICLE HAD EVER OVERHEATED, AND HAD ALWAYS ACTUALLY RUN FAIRLY COOL.
WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE MADE NOISE. CONSUMER PULLED OVER, AND HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED, THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO ENGINE BLOWING OUT. *AK
1999 DODGE RAM 1500 EXPERIENCE ENGINE NOISE DEFECTIVE MANIFOLD GASKET SET. *BF THE CONSUMER VEHICLE HAD SEVERAL MECHANICAL PROBLEMS. THE CONSUMER COMPLAINED OF NOISE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. INITIALLY THE SERPENTINE BELT WAS REPLACED BUT WHEN THE NOISE RESURFACED THE DEALER REPLACED THE INTAKE GASKET. OVER TIME THE CONSUMER HAD TO ALSO REPLACE THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER, CRANKSHAFT SEAL AND RADIATOR. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO PERFORM POORLY. THE DEALER DETERMINED THAT HE GASKET NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. THE CONSUMER DECIDED TO DO THE REPAIRS HIMSELF. WHILE PERFORMING THE GASKET REPAIRS THE CONS NOTICED THAT THE OLD GASKET WAS BENT . HE DETERMINED THAT THE DEALER HAD INSTALLED THE INCORRECT GASKET FOR THE VEHICLE. *NM
ENGINE FAILURE, 1999 DODGE 5.2 LITER V8. PURCHASED USED VEHICLE WITH 75,000 ORIGINAL MILES IN 2003. TRUCK IN VERY NICE CONDITION, AND WELL MAINTAINED. LAST WEEK ON A DAILY DRIVE IT SEEMS A COONECTING ROD SNAPPED AND BLEW THROUGH THE OIL PAN. THE ENGINE IS NOW GARBAGE. I PREVIOUSLY OWNED A 1987 DODGE RAM PICK-UP AND REGRETFULLY SOLD IT WITH A MERE 175,000 MILE ON IT. THAT TRUCK WOULD RUN RINGS AROUND THE "NEW RAM TOUGH" JUNKER SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY. I WOULD REQUEST DODGE TO GIVE ME A MORE DEPENDABLE ENGINE, LIKE THE ONE IN MY 1987. I DON'T NEED THE "SWEET" GLITZ ASSOCIATED WITH THEIR NEW TECHNOLOGY. *AK
I BOUGHT A 1999 DODGE RAM 1500 PICKUP WITH A 5.2 LITER ENGINE FROM SWIFT DODGE IN DAVIS, CA IN DECEMBER OF 1998. THE FIRST DAY, I NOTICED THAT IT HAD A SPARK KNOCK OR PING WHEN ACCELERATING UP THE SLIGHTEST GRADE. WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER ON OR WHEN PULLING A SMALL TRAILER, THE KNOCK WAS WORSE. I COMPLAINED ABOUT IT EVERYTIME I TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR SERVICE AT THE DEALERSHIP. *AK THE MANIFOLD GASKET WAS REPLACED TWICE BY THE DEAER, AND I WAS TOLD THAT WOULD FIX IT. IT DIDN'T. I'VE HAD THE TRUCK IN FOR SERVICE AT SWIFT DODGE APPROXIMATELY 13 TIMES OVER THE PAST 4+ YEARS, EACH TIME COMPLAINING OF THE SPARK KNOCK. SOMETIMES THEY HAVE SAID THEY CAN'T HEAR IT, SOMETIMES THEY JUST PUT ME OFF, AND SOMETIMES THEY CHANGED THE MANIFOLD GASKET. NOW, I'M TOLD - AT 129,000 MILES - THAT THE GASKET HAS FAILED AGAIN AND THAT THE CYLINDER HEADS NEED TO BE REPLACED AS WELL, ALL FOR THE PRICE OF $2,000+. I'VE CALLED CHRYSLER TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE ONE COMPLAINT ON RECORD WITH THEM FROM APRIL 2001. THERE ARE 2 TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS OUT ON THIS VERY PROBLEM. APPARENTLY THE FIX IS ONLY TEMPORARY, AND WHEN THE TRUCK IS PAST ITS WARRANTY, THE CONSUMER PAYS. IT'S NOT FAIR THAT A CHRONIC DESIGN PROBLEM ISN'T DEFINITIVELY REMEDIED BY THE MANUFACTURER UNDER WARRANTY. IF ALL COMPANIES INCLUDED DESIGN FLAWS IN EVERY PRODUCT THAT THE CONSUMER WOULD EVENTUALLY BE CHARGED FOR, COMPANIES COULD ENJOY A STEADY STREAM OF AFTER-WARRANTY INCOME. THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENED HERE. BY THE WAY, THE WEB IS FULL OF CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS AND THREATS OF CLASS-ACTION SUITS FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM WITH 1999 DODGE PICKUPS AND DURANGOS. I DON'T KNOW IF THERE IS ANY LEGAL RECOURSE, BUT I'M LODGING MY LEGITIMATE COMPLAINT ANYWAY. YOURS TRULY, DENNIS PARKER
WHILE DRIVING THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE DROPPED TO ZERO. CONSUMER PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY TO CHECK THE OIL LEVEL. THE DIP STICK WAS DRY, THERE WAS NO OIL IN THE ENGINE. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. INTAKE MANIFOLD PLENUM GASKET FAILED. WHICH RESULTED IN THE ENGINE OIL LEAKING AND GOING THROUGH THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE GASKET. *AK
PURCHASED VEHICLE WITH 49,000 MILES ON IT AUGUST 2002 SINCE IT HAS BEEN BACK TO THE DEALER A MINUMUM OF 7 TIMES BRAKES WORE OUT AND IN TO THE DRUMS, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON ENGINE NOT RUNNING PROPERLY AND 5 TIMES FOR TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS NOT ONE TIME HAS THE VEHICLE BEEN REPAIRED OTHER THAN FOR BRAKES WHICH I HAD TO THREATEN WITH A COMPLAINT TO THE STATE POLICE BECAUSE OF HAVING A NEW INSPECTION STICKER ON THE VEHICLE IAM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH TRANSMISSION WAS TOLD NEEDED A NEW UNIT NOW SINCE OUT OF WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH I HAVE DOCUMENTATION IT WAS HAVING PROBLEMS BE FORE WARRANTY RAN OUT; NOW I WAS TOLD THAT THE PERFORMANCE AND RUNNIBILITY AND OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM IS DUE TO A INTAKE GASKET FAILURE. A REAL PIECE OF QUALITY JUNK DODGE IS PUTTING OUT. MAYBE THATS WHY THEY WENT AWAY FROM THEIR 7/70000 MILE WARRANTY ON THESE MODELS. *LA
POOR WORKMANSHIP AT 58,000 MILES MY PERSONAL (NOT USED FOR HAULING) USE 1999 DODGE RAM PICKUP HAD THE WATER PUMP, RADIATOR, FRONT BRAKE ROTORS, EVAPORATOR FAIL. COST OVER $3000.00. *JB
