On 01/14/2015 I went to fuel up at gas station the gas gauge was showing empty. I started to put fuel in my truck and it spilled out all over the truck and ground. I tried to put fuel in it again and the same thing happened. The truck took only $1.72 in fuel. I then took it to the dealer ship where I bought the truck. I explained what happened they ran test on it. Repair the check ball in tank was sticking. They ordered a hole new tank and replaced tank transfer fuel pump also installed a new filler neck, flapper was sticking also and replaced tube assembly ## VIN passed ## Dodge Ram 2500 2013 ## the consumer stated when he opened the passenger side front door, the molding from the top of the door fell off. The molding then fell off the driver side, too. The consumer referenced recall # 14V635000. He believed his make, model and year should have been included.

2500 6-cyl Diesel

  • 12,155 miles
While driving my 2013 Ram 2500 crew cab 4X4 (VIN [xxx] ) I was on an onramp headed onto the highway and I tried to accelerate from roughly 10-15 mph to highway speed because of the short on ramp and heavy traffic. The truck refused to accelerate at even a moderate speed while the accelerator was fully depressed. I ended up having to pull over to the shoulder because I was not able to gain any speed due to what I believe was some kind of electronic program preventing acceleration. I tried to research online for some issues other people may have been reporting and found people referring to something called torque management being there problem. I want Ram to fix this issue because it is a true safety issue which prevent necessary acceleration in real world driving situations.

On the cummins diesel 6.7 engine, when trying to change lanes and accelerate the truck has a huge hesitation, or lag, in acceleration. It is very dangerous to go from the slower right hand lanes and move over to the left lanes. After the hesitation it accelerates fine.

Well the first time I got diesel it leaked all over the ground so I took it to the dealer. The dealer informed me it is doing what it was designed to do. It need fuel so I filled it up again and drove were I needed to go I looked and diesel was leaking all over the rear spring, brakes and wheel so I went back to dealer they gave me a fuel cap as the 2013 did not have a fuel cap. This does not fix the problem as when you fill up with fuel it puts 2 to 5 cups of fuel on the ground! to me this is several hazardous / contamination/ dangers it is a smog compliance truck but I think fuel leaking on ground is a bad hazard let alone fuel on brakes when hot it could catch fire or get your brakes not to work.
