   I was mailed a recall notice from the manufacture a while back and was going to need to get the work completed in order to renew my CA registration. A smog cert was also needed for the renewal. I took my vehicle to McPeeks Dodge/Ram for the recall on 10/24/24. On 11/21/24 I went to get my vehicle smog checked. The smog station said that I had passed the emissions portion, but some of the monitors were still in the "not ready" state, and he could not pass the vehicle until all monitors were ready. He said that it was likely related to the recall work that was done at the dealership. I then contacted the dealership's service dept and they said that the vehicle needed to be driven a certain amount and a certain way, and for approximately $700.00 they could have one of their technicians drive it, to get it out of its current state, but they could not guarantee that it would get fixed, so I declined their offer. They explained that it needed to be driven a certain way and that it was "pretty easy", so I drove it exactly how they explained it, several times and it is still in its "not ready" state. Frustrated, since the dealership never explained this to me before the recall work was done, I reached out to Ram, but they would never return my call. After about 3 weeks of almost daily calls, I spoke to a person (who would not reveal their name of position with the company) and they said that because of the year of the vehicle and because I did not want the dealership to "attempt" to fix it, that they couldn't help me with this. Sorry, but I refuse to give my money to fix a manufacture's recall issue. This is my work vehicle that allows me to provide for my family. Please assist me in resolving this issue or please refer me to somebody that can. Thank You.

   The compounder drum in the transmission exploded on me, while driving, nearly causing me to wreck. The 62TE transmission used in many vehicles, but specifically the ram pro master master 2014 to 2021. there is a recall for the compounded drum that I am aware of at least in the 2019, but for some reason my van the 2014 with the same exact transmission does not fall under that recall.

   My 2014 Ram Promaster 2500 experienced a cooling fan seizure overheat that almost resulted in a fire similar to recall VB2 / NHTSA 19V-818 which ONLY applies effects to 2015-2018 models. But clearly this same issue happened to me as the plastic shroud smoked and melted and would've started a fire if I hadn't noticed it starting up in the driveway. Please investigate further and I hope this report saves 2014 owners from significant damage like mine had occur.

    WAS DRIVING DOWN A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET AND STOPPED TO BACK INTO A DRIVEWAY WHEN I PUT THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE THE TRANSMISSION HOUSING BRACKET THAT HAS FOUR BOLTS HOLDING THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION BROKE OFF. LEAVING MY TRANSMISSION JUST INCHES FROM THE GROUND. THIS IS NOT SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN. THERE IS NO DESIGN TO CATCH OR HOLD THE TRANSMISSION IN ITS PLACE. I AM VERY BLESSED THAT THIS HAPPENED IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND NOT ON THE HIGHWAY, THERE COULD'VE BEEN QUITE A BIT OF DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE AND POSSIBLY OTHERS.

    MY PASSENGER SIDE MIRROR IS BEING FOLDED IN BY THE WIND AT 60 MILES PER HOUR. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS THIS IS A CARGO VAN AND THERE ARE NO WINDOWS TO SEE IF ANYONE IS BESIDE ME. I CANNOT CHANGE LANES SAFELY WITHOUT THAT MIRROR WORKING PROPERLY. I BELIEVE THE ISSUE IS WITH THE MOTOR THAT FOLDS THE WINDOW IN MALFUNCTIONING. I HAVE OWNED THREE SEPARATE RAM PROMASTERS AND THIS IS THE THIRD VEHICLE THIS HAS HAPPENED. THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED ASAP.

    ON JANUARY 23, 2020 RAM ISSUED A RECALL FOR A FAULTY TRANSMISSION SHIFTER CABLE FOR THE PROMASTER. AS OF TODAY, NEARLY 6 MONTHS LATER, THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE TO FIX THE ISSUE. REPEATED CALLS TO THE DEALERSHIP HAS INDICATED THIS IS A NATIONWIDE PROBLEM AND THEY SAID IT WOULD LIKELY BE SEVERAL MORE MONTHS AT THE EARLIEST BEFORE THEY HAVE THE PARTS IN STOCK. THE MOPAR RECALL WEBSITE INDICATES PARTS ARE AVAILABLE BUT THIS IS CLEARLY NOT TRUE. WHAT IS THE POINT OF HAVING A SAFETY RECALL IF IT'S NOT POSSIBLE TO FIX IT? *TR

    ISSUES WITH OUR 2014 PROMASTER STARTED IN 2016. INSERTED KEY TO START IT AND IT WOULDN'T START. KEY WAS LOCKED IN IGNITION. TOWED TO DODGE SERVICE CENTER AND THEY HAD IT 3WKS. THEY REPLACED MANY PARTS INCLUDING PCM BOARD, SHIFTER ASSEMBLY, AND MANY OTHERS. THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENED IN 2017 AND TWICE IN 2018. DIFFERENT SERVICE MEASURES WERE TAKEN. TODAY I WAS GETTING GAS AT SPEEDWAY, JUMPED BACK INTO VEHICLE AND THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS DEAD! HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED. SINCE THE DODGE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T FIX IT THE OTHER 4 TIMES, I HAD IT TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT. I'M HOPING THEY CAN RESOLVE THIS SERIOUS ISSUE. WE'RE A NON-PROFIT AND CAN ILL-AFFORD TO RUN OUT AND GET ANOTHER TRUCK. I SEE MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS CONCERNING 2014 ELECTRICAL ISSUES. WHY HASN'T THIS VEHICLE BEEN RECALLED? BY THE WAY, WE HAVE LESS THAN 5,000 MILES ON THIS TRUCK SINCE IT'S USED SPARINGLY.
