2026 RAM 1500

While driving and coming to a complete stop at a red traffic light, the service brakes suddenly failed to hold the vehicle. With the brake pedal fully depressed, the vehicle unexpectedly began creeping forward into traffic. To prevent a collision with the vehicle ahead, I had to manually engage the electronic parking brake to force the vehicle to a stop. An adult passenger witnessed the failure. The vehicle was towed to Nyle Maxwell RAM in Austin, TX. The dealership stated no computer diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) were present and they could not replicate the issue on a short test drive, releasing the vehicle back to me completely unrepaired. This is a severe, intermittent hydraulic or electronic braking failure that poses an immediate crash hazard.

On Saturday April 25 while driving my leased Ram 1500 Tungsten with the radio volume turned all the way down (no sound), I was changing stations on SiriusXM using the steering wheel button when the volume suddenly went to maximum. It was easily over 100db and would not respond to the volume control knob and continued blasting until I turned the radio/center console power off. I took the vehicle to the dealership the following Monday, but they did not find any "codes" indicative of what may have caused the problem. While this may not appear to be a serious issue, it could have easily caused an accident given my startled reaction to the very loud sound; and one of my ears still hurts five days later. I have not tried to reproduce the issue.

The vehicle, while being in ACC, does not recognize a vehicle in front of you. The car will accelerate/drive into the vehicle in front and not brake. The display in the instrument shows driver overwrite, which is incorrect since my foot is resting on the floor mat. Dealer is trying to fix is but so far was unsucessful. Car is dangerous to drive with that behavior.
