This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
While driving in heavy traffic in stop and go situation applied brakes and brake pedal will go alway to the floor, and will not pump up, could feel vehicle still rolling. That was a signal that brake problem will be happening.
Truck exhibits serious pull to the left when braking. Been for service several times, replacing entire braking system, spent $2000+ on repairs, problem goes away for a couple months then comes back. Truck cannot be safely driven because the brake pull is so serious. Hitting the brakes can make the truck change lanes to the left (oncoming traffic). Cannot afford to dump more money into repairs for a problem that does not seem repairable (out of warranty). Saw many complaints on internet of same problem. Dodge must issue a recall. Very dangerous problem making lemons out of 4-5 year old trucks. Please help.
Consumer says while driving under any driving conditions the brakes fade out and come back in when applied, the pedal goes to the floor, giving no response and then it will pump back up on its own to respond. The dealer has not been contacted.
3500 - started at 6000 miles the front brakes wore out. Replaced with new ones. Then again at 12000 miles front brakes, rotors, replaced. Then at 20000 miles calibers, brake pads, and rotors replaced. At 30000 miles master cylinder, brake hoses, replaced. Again at 40000 miles all the above replaced. At 50000 miles brake pads replaced again. At 60000 miles everything checked, tires changed, and still the truck pulls to the left at braking. Contacted Dodge customer service telling them what has happened. They said they could not help me. A service bulletin had been issued months ago pertaining to this problem but the dealer refused to help.
In a sudden stop when braking the vehicle sways to the left side, almost resulting in an accident, cause unknown. Dlr replaced shims/ front brake pads/ rotor and control arm, etc. Dealer cannot determine problem.
Purchased truck new, when applying the brakes, truck pulls a side, sometimes it is a different side; also, transmission makes noise, jerks and locks in park.
