1 Clutch Pedal/linkage problem of the 2005 Dodge Ram 2500

Failure Date: 10/10/2015

The clutch pedal connecting rod to the clutch master cylinder separated from the master cylinder. It happens if you bump the pedal backwards with your foot going for the brake. Then you can't push in the clutch! you have to pull it out of gear pull over and put the rod back in. Clutch pedal comes back real far and causes this! this happens when driving and may cause a accident not being able to take it out of gear or shift if needed. I have pictures of the rod out of the hole if needed.

2 Clutch Pedal/linkage problem of the 2006 Dodge Ram 2500

Failure Date: 08/08/2009

Clutch pedal will occasionally not disengage the clutch after extended vehicle operation, particularly in hot ambient temperatures. I have experienced this problem at least 6 times since 2009; after extended driving (with or without towing, usually in warmer temperatures) the clutch pedal cannot be pushed to the floor to disengage the clutch from the flywheel. The first incident, in 2009, occurred after I stopped my truck for fuel, and resulted in vehicle movement during engine cranking when I forced the clutch pedal down far enough to engage the clutch position switch to allow cranking. The issue became repeatable enough that I replaced the entire clutch system (master cylinder, hydraulic tubing, and slave cylinder) in 2013 with the oe parts, and had the same issue occur with the replacement system.

3 Clutch Pedal/linkage problem of the 1998 Dodge Ram 2500

Failure Date: 02/21/2004

Clutch when depress does not disengage. It is to my believe it is an engineering flaw in the clutch slave cylinder. It happens more fequent when vechile is warm than cold. I have had two clutches replaced, 4 transmissions and 6 slave cylinders replaced and it is now in the repair shop again with 93,000 miles.
