Two times I have had issues with the accelerator sticking and there was no way to slow my truck down to gain control. Both times it happened when I was passing another vehicle when I was on highway 99 between corvallis, or and monmouth, or. Both times it was on a straight stretch. When I went to pass, I pressed on the accelerator to get some speed. I floored it. Both times the gas pedal stuck down to the floor and I was not able to get it to release. The truck kept accelerating to up over 100 mph before the gas pedal released and I was able to gain control of the truck again. Nothing I did would get it to release. It was extremely scary and I thought I was going to wreck, if not die. I am not sure which part caused this but it is connected to the gas pedal. It might be an internal component, I just don't know, so it is unknown. It seems to do it when the gas pedal is floored as that is what happened both times to me. I wasn't sure if I should list each time separately so you knew it was more than once. I will be taking my truck in to be checked as soon as possible since this has now happened twice and I don't want this to happen again.

Truck will randomly have no throttle response either while driving or coming from a dead-stop. It has also seemed to get stuck for a few seconds before also, which has also happened twice. I was crossing a railroad when the pedal lost response therefore, I had to roll off of the railroad. It has also happened while I was crossing an intersection with a trailer. I lost all power and the throttle wouldn't respond. Sometimes, when I restart the truck, it will work for a little while. Overall, it is consistent therefore, it worries me when I drive it because it will happen without warning.

I was driving down the road and the engine started dying then taking back off, then all of a sudden the speed odometer dropped to zero wouldnt come back up while I was still moving, then the ABS light the check enging light and the brake light and washer fluid light all came on and I lost power to the tail lights head lights and the windows started rooling up and down by them selves. When I got home and turned off the truck I called the dealer and they said that it was the tipm and it would have to be replaced. They said the trailer I was pulling must of had a short and thats what caused it. I told them that I wasnt pulling a trailer and they called me a liar and hung up on me the windows continued to roll up and down untill the batt was disconnected. The next morning I then hooked the battery back up and it all worked fine. No problem a couple weeks later it started again finall found a short in the light control on the right tail light replaced the part that holds the bulbs and the problem corrected itself. Now it has since started doing it all again but will not reset itself I contacted the dealer and they said that the tipm would reset itself five times then would have to be replaced. The veh was not pulling a trailer when this happened and the only trailer I pull with it has the lighting package working fine on all trucks I hook it to but not this one. Please get the Dodge company to recall these peices of junk im tired of paying 1200 dollars to replace a bunch of parts to find out its their piece of junk tipm causing all the problems.

Upon restarting my 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 diesel, my ABS light and parking brake light came on after driving a few short moments, I also noticed that speedometer indicator was not working but the vehicle RPM indicator was. Causing myself some concern I checked my brakes and noticed I had a hard brake pedal when applied but was still able to stop. I contacted my local dealership and took my vehicle in for service for this issue and recall notice concerning the drivers air bag inflator. I was contacted back by my service adviser, asking for approval for additional two hours of diagnoses time due to the fact his mechanic could not find the problem.I was notified at end of the day that the issue was found to be faulty power distribution center, output failed for circuit F202 unable to recover tipm thru reconfiguration. No pdc available thru parts at this time, fabricated jumper lead to to circuit F202 from fuse 28 in pdc. This is a temporary fix customer advised to replace pdc asap current price $917 additional 1.5 hrs labor to install and program unit. Total hours for diagnosis was 3 hours at a cost of $315 to customer. I believe this should investigated by the NHTSA as a on going concern and for consideration of a issuing a new safety recall for this issue.
