Description of the problem | When pulling out onto a busy intersection you push the pedal down and the vehicle stumbles or completely doesn't react. It has caused me to almost be involved in a side collision because i couldn't get power to cross a lane of traffic. I called dealer and they say its a common thing that happens and there is currently no fix. They are calling it ""dead pedal"" ram has to have a fix for this. After researching online i have heard a egr delete and tune will fix the issue. Egr delete is illegal in my state and i do not want to modify my vehicle from factory specs. This is a very unsafe condition and ram needs to make a fix for the issue. |
