The contact owns a 2020 Ram 1500. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle came to a complete stop at the traffic light; however, the contact stated that the vehicle then unintendedly accelerated and rear-ended the vehicle ahead. A Police report was filed. There was no injury sustained. The vehicle was not taken to be diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or a dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

I bought my 2020 Ram on 6/7/2021, driving it home that night the throttle body control sensor and the steering stabilizer sensor failed and came across my dashboard along with a check engine light, the truck started quickly acceleratingon its own, I had zero response from the gas pedal I could only use the brake. The next day it went back to the dealership to be fixed. They replaced the sensor in the gas pedal. I had to wait a few days to get it fixed. On 6/23 this problem happened again, the truck started rapidly accelerating on its own. The dealership towed it from my house to an authorized Ram dealer. I had to wait 2 weeks to get it back. I got it on 7/7. The dealership said that they did computer work to the truck but found no other issues, the sensor in the gas pedal was fine. Driving home from work last night 7/9 the dashboard lit up again and the truck started accelerating on its own for the 3rd time. I am now afraid to drive it.

THIS TRUCK IS MARKETING AND SOLD WITH A SPEED WARNING FEATURE - AN AUDITORY ANNOUNCEMENT WHEN THE SPEED LIMIT HAS BEEN EXCEEDED. THIS FEATURE RELIES ON ACCURATE SPEED LIMIT DATA BEING IN THE CAR'S NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEM. RAM AND THEIR MAPPING SOFTWARE VENDOR, "HERE", KNOW THEIR NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEM HAS MAJOR SPEED LIMIT ERRORS AND HAVE NO PLANS TO ADDRESS. THERE ARE WAYS THEY COULD ADDRESS THIS ISSUE: MAKE A REASONABLE ATTEMPT TO UPDATE ERRORS (AND ALLOW CUSTOMERS TO SUBMIT THE ERRORS), DEACTIVATE THE SOFTWARE (IT CANNOT BE RELIED UPON), AND/OR INFORM CUSTOMERS THAT THIS SYSTEM CANNOT BE RELIED UPON AS A SAFETY DEVICE.

I WAS PULLING IN BEHIND A PARK VEHICLE IN ORDER TO PARK MYSELF. I WAS IN A HS PARKING LOT WHERE SOME MUCH MORE SERIOUS COULD HAVE HAPPENED. I WAS MOVING APROX 1-3 MPH AND ABOUT TO STOP AND PARK WHEN THE VEHICLE UNEXPECTEDLY ACCELERATED. I WAS 10-12 FEET BEHIND THE PARKED VEHICLE. THE TRUCK ACCELERATED SO HARD IT PINNED ME BACK TO THE SEAT. I FRANTICLY TRIED TO STOP THE TRUCK AND AT THE SAME TIME THE ANTI COLLISION KICKED IN AS WELL TO SLOW THE TRUCK. UNFORTUNATELY IT WAS NOT QUICK ENOUGH TO PREVENT FROM HITTING HE CAR IN FRONT. THE LOWER PORTION OF MY BUMPER HIT THE MID RARE OF THE OTHER VEHICLE AS THE TRUCK MUST HAVE BEEN RAISED FROM THE FORCE. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THAT NIGHT AND FILED A CLAIM WITH FCA. THEY PULLED THE DATA FROM THE TRUCK AND DID AN ANALYSIS. THEY ARE CLAIM THERE WAS NO MECHANICAL MALFUNCTION AND I ACCELERATE AND BRAKED LATE. THE REPORT SHOWS THAT THE TRUCK ACCELERATED TO 100%!. YOU SIMPLY DO NOT ACCELERATE TO 100% BY ACCIDENT WHICH I THOUGHT WOULD HAVE BEEN AN INDICATED THAT SOMETHING EITHER KICKED IN AND MADE THE TRUCK ACCELERATE OR THE PEDAL JAMMED BUT SOMETHING. I AM ADAMANT THAT I DID NOT ACCIDENTLY ACCELERATE TO 100% BY ACCIDENT. I SPENT THE MONEY ON THIS TRUCK TO HAVE THE PIECE OF MIND THAT ME AND MY FAMILY ARE SAFE. I NO LONGER HAVE THAT COMFORT. I HAVE ATTACHED THE DATA REPORT. I CANNOT ATTACHED THE CORRESPONDENCE FROM FCA AS I CANNOT ATTACH A WORD DOCUMENT
