Description of the problem	2015 ram 3500 laramie dually 4x4, 6. 7 i6 cummins, aisin transmission. Truck experiences "dead pedal" under hard acceleration or when depressing pedal 3/4 to full throttle suddenly. This happens under all conditions: stopped, rolling, under acceleration. Advancing the pedal suddenly or completely down in emergency situations results in a 3-4 second delay where the truck will not respond, then slowly adds power. This is extremely dangerous as the truck will not respond to the drivers inputs. Possibly resulting in a crash or death. In several cases the truck has responded in the above described manor resulting in emergency action by the driver to avoid a crash or wreck. Problem has been occurring for the past 10 - 15k miles and still continues. As per the dealer servicing the vehicle. We were told nothing is wrong, this was normal and they refused to do anything about it. As per ram technical assistance "if the customer steps in the throttle, the vehicle will go into derate to keep the driveshaft off the ground. If you stay around 60 to 70% throttle then there is no derate. Sounds like the vehicle is operating as designed." a copy of the report has been provided with this report
