Started vehicle after I ran errands and got about 500 yards before vehicle displayed serious electrical issues. The electrical issues included the windshield wipers running when the windshield wiper control was set to off, displaying a warning that the driver side seat belt was not latched when the seat belt was latched, displaying a low engine fuel warning when there was over half a tank of gas, displaying a warning for low tire pressure when the tire pressure was okay. Prior to this incident the vehicle has on occasion been difficult to start, acting as if it was not getting enough fuel or the battery was low. Eventually the vehicle engine would engage after several turns of the ignition switch. This is the second time since purchasing this brand new vehicle that we have had electrical issues. The first time the computer had to be rebooted in the vehicle. This time may require the same thing. When I spoke with the dealers service representative, he stated that it could be possible for the computer to turn off the vehicle when experiencing this type of computer malfunction. He said that it might require the driver to coast to a stop. Seems as if this scenario, would pose a serious danger or threat to both the occupants of the vehicle and surrounding vehicles that could result in death or injury.

The contact owns a 2012 Dodge Ram 1500. The contact stated that the horn failed to operate. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the horn was repaired. Two weeks later, the horn failure recurred. The contact stated that he would have to press the horn several times in order to get a response. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where the contact was told that the horn did not have a sufficient ground. The vehicle was repaired a second time but the horn continued to fail intermittently. The horn would also sound independently any time the contact was attempting a turn in either direction, or when a slight road bump was driven over. The vehicle was not further repaired. The failure mileage was 4,200.

2012 Dodge Ram 1500 crew cab lone star 5.7 hemi w/mds auto trans. Transmission has a very moderate "bump" or jarring thud inside the vehicle after the truck comes to a complete stop from normal driving speeds in city/highway. Took to dealership and they could not repeat concern as I described. This bump is not normal and is not constant or consistent with all stops. Also, truck was towed to dealership for warranty work after 1200 miles. Trucks electrical system went out. Battery was dead and would not start. Unknown problem. Thank you.
