| Description of the problem | My 05 ram 1500 has now stalled out twice in the 2 months i have had it. The first time i was stuck in rush hour traffic so i was at a stand still but now this time i was turning into a school and the truck stalled and steering wheel locked... I almost hit 2 teachers because of this... The lights and radio was still on though.. This is a major problem that needs attention before someone gets seriously hurt.. |
