I was towing a 18000 lb fifth wheel rv about 45 mph when traffic made a panic stop in front of me. I couldn-??t stop and had an accident. I later determined the brake controller on truck didn-??t provide the 12 volts needed to get maximum braking from the fifth wheel brakes. I took it to the dealer and they confirmed that at slower speeds it doesn-??t give maximum voltage. They contacted Ram engineer to find a fix but was informed that that it was operating as designed. This controller design was definitely the cause of this accident. I was only getting 8 volts for the trailer brakes. I contacted Cargo Brake ( manufacturer of trailer brake system) and they told me they have had many complaints from Ram owners about this problem. They recommended that I purchase an aftermarket controller which I did. It gives me maximum voltage for full braking from the fifth wheel at any speed. I should also state that my truck was new with only 2500 miles on it. I was not informed by the dealer or able to gain knowledge of this controller design anywhere in the Ram information provided in the owners manual. This is an extremely hazardous design not permitting maximum braking at slower speeds.

The security system was not installed nor does it work. Our truck had a window smashed and the truck was broken into. The alarm never went off, nor did the lights flash. There is an indication the security system was never installed at the time of manufacturing. Property was stolen out of the vehicle and the thief was successful at breaking into our truck. At the time of the purchase of the truck, the security system is listed in the bill of sale.

Truck was parked on 5% slope, and transmission shifted into park, and parking brake set. Transmission then made a popping noise, and shifted into reverse, and vehicle started moving backwards. Parking brake failed to hold vehicle. Applied brakes, and shifted into park again, and set parking brake, and it didn't reoccur.
