Two problems related to brakes failed have been reported for the 2011 Dodge Ram 1500. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The contact owns a 2011 Dodge Ram 1500. The contact was leaving an intersection at 35 mph and applied the brakes as a vehicle attempted a left turn in from the opposite side of the roadway. The brake pedal traveled to the floorboard abnormally and did not respond. The contact crashed into the side of the preceding vehicle. No one was injured and the vehicle was towed to an auto body shop. The manufacturer was notified of the failure who advised that they would send an investigator to inspect the brake failure. The contact had experienced the brake failure once prior to the crash. The failure mileage was 29,000.
Began when I purchased truck of integrated brake failure later turned into bad instrument cluster, visor short, new brake controller and lots of hours. When starting vehicle wipers come on, no interior lights, no turn signals (inside or outside) no heat, no radio no trailer brakes. Now vehicle has been at Dodge for 2 weeks. They replaced, instrument cluster, wiring harness, tpms and problem remains. Very unsafe to drive as no indicators and wipers constantly on. Problem began around 1 month after purchase and plagues me today. I have extended warranty and I am charged 100. 00 per visit. Customer care will not provide me with options I must dictate my choices. Terrible service.
