This model is equipped with automatic side steps. The steps deploy when they want and most of the time they do not deploy. They also when deployed and after exiting the vehicle and locking it sometimes will not stow back under the vehicle. They also will remain deployed when you enter the vehicle and will stow when you reach the safety speed of approximately 5mph before stowing. I noticed this problem within a week of purchasing the vehicle and as of this date (4/13/21) have had the vehicle at the dealership (hill kelly Ram, pensacola, fl) six times to repair the problem. I have videoed the problem and they have been able to reproduce the problem. They have replaced door latches, door modules and controllers with no fix found yet. They have scheduled an appointment with the district engineer to try and troubleshoot the problem. I have been told that they have a known problem with the automatic steps. The only temporary fix we have found is if the steps do not deploy to close the door and then immediately open it, then the steps will deploy. This problem is affecting both the driver and passenger side. It doesn't matter if it is the front or rear door that is opened. It will also give a warning of the side steps obstructed on the drivers dash display.

I purchased my 2021 Ram 1500 limited night edition on March 11, 2021. It was new. Within 3 weeks and less than 1,000 miles of driving the vehicle stalled twice while in the middle of an intersection. The fuel tank was full and the engine was warm each time. The first time around March 17 I was alone in the car. I stopped at a stop sign and then depressed the gas pedal and as I turned to the right the car stalled. No error message came up. I stopped the car. Turned the gear shift knob to P and pressed the start/stop button twice and the truck started back up. 10 days later with my family in the car the same thing happened. I was at a stop sign, then pressed on the gas and made a left turn this time and the car stalled. Again, fortunately no one was coming because my family and I could have been seriously injured or killed because we were in the middle of the road and someone could have T-boned us. The car has been with the dealer for a week and they tell me they have not been able to discover anything. There were no error messages and they have not reproduced the problem. I am writing to put this on the record in case anything happens to us.

I parked my truck, shut off the engine, and exited and went inside. I was walking my dog several minutes later and seemed to notice my truck moving backwards. I saw the fresh tracks in the snow in front of my truck and realized that it was rolling backward on my driveway. I got in, pressed the brakes to stop the rolling and tried cycling the power. My keys were inside so I rushed in to get them and then back to the truck. It started without changing the shift selector knob, so it had definitely been requested to engage park.
