Nit a safe vehicle to drive. Terrible experiences more than several times.while driving on frwy sometimes the brake pedal hardens making it imposible to brake, gotta pum a lil on gas for the pedal to loosen.once in gear driving at a speed of about 40miles sometimes you can hear as if youve changed the gear and vehicle de accelerates or as if you webt on neutral wgile driving. When shifting either on reverse or fwd brake hardens and while presing gas pedal behicle does not move nowhere, were figured out maybe turning the engine on and off after a couple of times it kinda resets and then it switches on gear transmision always najes a loud noise when changing gear such as if was stuck.. while driving behicle always smells like hot engine or plastic.the problem is bithe stationary and whike driving.

The vehicle may slip out of gear, due to the transmission locking pin getting stuck open. ( no incidents have occured yet ) there is a open recall now for some time. NHTSA recall number 17V-821 manufacturer # T79
My 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 is affected by the NHTSA recall 17V-821 (T79 manufacturer recall) I have had 2 instances of my truck coming out of park in the last month, I just found out about this recall online, Chrysler/Dodge/Ram has not notified me of the recall at all. I called Chrysler and the man I spoke to said there is no fix currently and it could be September or later before there is. This is dangerous and I want to know what I can do to give the truck back to the dealer or have the dealer buy it back as I dont find it safe to park the vehicle anywhere as it could roll and cause an accident.
Tamara recall- so on June of 2017 I was driving from Texas to Colorado. I was at the passing by trinidad, co when the truck just gave out going up the hill. It literally left me stranded in the middle of the hill while cars wer driving by 70 miles an hour. M and M towing towed it to trinidad and they informed me the transfer case was bad and so was the right front drive shaft. I paid 2500 dollars to have that repaired. Well now since September of 2012 the truck keeps giving me problems. It turns off literally while I'm driving making me loose any steering or break power. The heating seats have stopped working, the traction light keeps turning off and on. The light trailer disconnected message is permanently on. The shifter won't move outta park almost everyday when I first start the truck. The truck turns on and immediately shutts off. The remote start only works half of the time. I was just informed the exhaust manifold is cracked and that the rfront differential is bad too. At this point the truck isn't even dribble unless I spend like 5000 in fixing it. Bit how if I'm making 700 payment monthly. The truck is plain and simple falling apart and I have only had it for a year and a half. What worries me the most that it turns completely off without notice or warning while I'm driving with my kids in the truck
