The vehicle at low speeds or when stopped at an intersection UNEXPECTEDLY stalls, sometimes when rolling. This disables the vehicle and to restart you must turn the gearselecter knob to Park, put your foot on the brake and push the start button. Sometimes the engine requires multiple attempts to restart. The instrument display after the stall shows the check engine light illuminated along with the warning lights for the front and rear parking sensors , the stability control, and automatic emergency braking. These warning lights remain illuminated at least until you turn the truck off. The check engine light remains on usually until the next day. It has now stalled over 10 times.This problem has not been diagnosed by the dealer.

I was backing up with nothing behind me and the truck abruptly went into park, applied the parking brake, and shut down the engine. Later, on the drive to work, the battery light came on and I had received a "reduced battery capacity" message on the display. The truck has the hybrid system with less than 9k miles. Emailing the dealership, they did not claim anything is wrong. Two weeks earlier no sound came out of the speakers and that resolved itself. So, I suspected something with software and disconnected the 12 V battery for 5 minutes and the fault went away. It is troubling that the vehicle shifts into park. It seems related to Investigation:PE24018.

Came to a stop sign, waited for traffic to clear to turn left as I floored it started moving and then all of a sudden loss acceleration and notice rpm ramped up to 7k. As in was just coasting I notice only my rpm would go up but the truck wouldn’t move. Lucky I coasted to the side of road and shifted to park. Turned off car and then restarted. Drive home the remaining 30 miles which it seemed to work fine. Kinda scary thinking u can lose power trying to merge into traffic but lucky there was no one coming behind me only 7k miles on my 1500 but now I gotta be careful when pulling out into traffic and really sucks cause the reason I bought the truck with the hemi was for me to be able to accelerate fast ..

During normal driving conditions the vehicles air conditioning system and interaction pane malfunctions. The issue has occurred twice during ownership. First occurrence was after going over a speed-bump at approximately 1-5 mph. The second occurrence was when coming to stop to make a turn. In both occurrences, the air conditioner was set enabled and coldest, and fan speed was set to 2-3. During the first occurrence (March 15th, 2024 at 4:28 PM EST), the fan speed self-raised to 7; internal circulation was likely already enabled. The Front and Rear defrosters turned themselves on, and temperature self-raised to mid-warm to hot. Attempting to lower the temperature, fan-speed, and attempts to disable defrosters immediately fail. The visual indicator shows its being lowered or disabled, but immediately re-enables or raises. In the second occurrence was June 14, 2024 at approximately 6:25 PM EST. This time, the fan speed did not self-raise; instead, just the cabin heat raised and defrosters enabled. In both occurrences, the touch screen is clean and clear of liquids or debris. In both occurrences the issue ceased after approximately 30-60 seconds, and controls functioned without issue. No prior contact was made to the screen prior to these occurrences. No modifications have been made to the vehicle to warrant this failure. No check engine light or other illumination/warning appeared during the occurrences. Video of occurrences are available upon request by government or manufacture.

For reference, there are only 4,780 miles on my vehicle. I was driving 20mph when my 2024 Ram Tradesman dash lit up "Shift to P to Start". Checked my gear and it said I was still in drive? I slowed down to park, and then it said "Press Break and Push Button to Start". Again, still driving (slowly luckily). I began to slow the vehicle to 8mph and the whole vehicle stalled and the dash read "Shifter Autocorrect Engaged" and it literally THREW my vehicle into park and engaged the E-Break. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle any longer. There are MULTIPLE instances with models as old as 2018 and as new as 2024 that this is happening. And not just at slow speeds. I have read multiple instances in people traveling on the interstate at 70+mph and they are crashing. My vehicle may be under warranty still, but my life is not, neither is my husband and children's lives. This vehicle is how we get places as a family and it puts all four of us at risk of injury or death. This is a HIGH risk glitch. I contacted the Dan Cummins dealership in Paris KY and they said they had NEVER heard of this problem? But it's ALL OVER the internet? And it hasn't been recalled? They said it would be 2 weeks before they could look at it and acted like it wasn't a major issue. I am furious. This is people's LIVES at risk. This isn't a camera malfunction, or a tailgate that doesnt lock. This is the engine shutting down then the E-Break engaging when driving and potentially flipping and spinning my vehicle out of control. Not to mention other problems like my driver side window glitching and not rolling up until I hit it two and three times, or the AC shutting down and blowing out hot air when the automatic hybrid kicks in/or the truck is half shut down at lights. But this? This is it. I will not drive a vehicle made by a company who KNOWS they have RECURRING problems and refuses to recall the vehicle for YEARS. It is hazardous to LIFE.
