Ram 1500 electric power steering issues lead to lawsuit
The electric power steering controls in 2013-2024 Ram 1500 trucks are said to be faulty. September 14, 2024 — Ram 1500 electric power steering issues sparked a class-action lawsuit from two Ram truck owners. The power steering systems on some Ram 1500 trucks have been recalled, and the federal government has launched an investigation in 2023. But the plaintiffs claim Fiat Chrysler concealed the steering problems from customers for a long time. The Ram 1500 Class Action Lawsuit includes: "Any person or entity that purchased or leased a 2013 to 2024 Ram 1500 vehicle from an authorized FCA dealer in the United States." The plaintiffs claim the electric steering failed without warning, leaving drivers without power steering assistance.

Not only are the 2013-2024 model year trucks risky to drive, but owners also have to pay…
Ford F-150 transmission downshift recall investigation
Ford F-150 truck owners have been complaining about their trucks' transmissions suddenly downshifting. August 5, 2024 — An investigation into a Ford F-150 downshift problem has concluded, according to a recall of Ford F-150 trucks. The first Ford F-150 downshift recall was issued in September 2016 for 2011 to 2012 trucks equipped with the 6-speed (6R80) automatic transmission. The Ford F-150 downshift recall was due to complaints from owners that the transmission would suddenly downshift to first gear, causing the rear wheels to lock. Ford engineers said the F-150's sudden downshifts were caused by cracks in the transmission's output shaft speed (OSS) sensor's OSS circuit board solder joints, causing intermittent signal loss in the OSS sensor. But in December 2017, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration launched a "recall inquiry" to determine whether repairs had fixed the F-150 downshift problem. Ford subsequently issued a downshift recall for more than 1.2 million trucks. Ford said dealers would reprogram the powertrain control…
