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.
The contact owns a 2022 Ram 2500. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the transmission malfunctioned, and the vehicle continued to accelerate after releasing the accelerator pedal. The vehicle started shuddering and the transmission failed to shift to the intended gear. There was an abnormal burning odor of transmission fluid inside and outside the vehicle. There was a message displayed that the transmission fluid was overheating. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 6,000.
I purchased a brand new RAM 2500 Limited Cummins. Crew Cab, long bed. I heard online on one of the diesel truck forums that the factory was underfilling the differentials. I checked both differentials, and found that the front was at least 3/4 of a quart low on oil, and the rear was about 1/4 of a quart low. This could potentially cause a crash or wheel lockup if the differential were to fail due to being low on oil!
