Car Stall Problems of Dodge Ram 1500 - part 1

With the cold weather, it's not cranking. I had a new battery and starter installed and it still doesn't crank unless it's in neutral and I press the fuel peddle. If it sets for too long in cold, I have to repeat the process and no longer am able to use remote start and sometimes have to be jumped off.

In 2018,yr 2012 Dodge ram truck, was recalled for the t79 recall. After recall was installed, now truck stalls-goes dead when brake pushed & dies in reverse. After research, it's a major issue w/the 1500's yet there hasnt been a recall. This is a very dangerous situation that Dodge has put the owners in. So when I brake for anything on a hwy, it goes dead! the dealer checks for an error code & yet there is no error code so they cant do anything about it-dependent on computers versus hands on mechanics. Dealer suggested to leave my truck & they'll drive it until it happens which is random. It's ridiculous that mechanics have no real hands-on mechanical ability & depend on computers to provide error codes. After the t79 recall was done, was it required to upgrade/update or refresh the computer system afterwards? dealer said the recall did not call for an computer update as Dodge did not require it. Per internet forums, youtube, & internet, the stalling is a major issue! guess I have to take chances w/this issue of stalls/dying on hwy travel-dangerous! also, the steering wheel has something loose inside of it. It sounds like the airbag has come loose & is moving when wheel turned. Any recalls or word on this? again the dealer plugs in his computer & doesn't see anything wrong even though you can hear it. Dodge needs to be accountable & responsible for all these mistakes-esp since this is a safety issue! also, on the 1st day of purchasing my truck, the pass airbag light remained on. Dealer kept new truck for 6 wks to attempt resolution & ended up contacting Dodge engineering & found out the colored wires were crossed - the colors were interchanged at the factory! amazing & no recall was done. It's impossible to speak w/cust serv at Dodge ram- someone that is knowledgeable.

TSB# 18-003-08, I have had this oil sending unit replaced 2 times within one year and Dodge has a TSB out there to fix it. Although my warranty is out of date this is a huge safety issue. When the switch starts to fail the unit sends a message to the on board computer to turn on the check gauges light and reduces the rpms and stalls out the vehicle. Dodge has a TSB to address this problem but refuses to do it without charging. Dodge knew this issue well before the vehicle was out of warranty but did not notify the owners to address the issue. It has now become a safety issue with my truck and nearly causing 2 crashes. I have asked Dodge via chat to approve the update to my on board computer TSB# 18-003-18 and they refuse. I don't see how they can force the customer to pay $100 plus to fix an issue that they should have taken care of regardless. I have now had to pay 100's to replace a oil sending unit that no longer works with the trucks computer due to defective software used by Dodge. .
