2024 Ram 1500 Brakes Problems

As I was about to pull into my driveway my accelerator did not respond to braking I was going very slow about to make a left turn , less than 10mph Just As I started the left turn the wheel became unresponsive and the accelerator did not deccelerate At the same time my control panel seemed to glitch/flash I put both feet on the brake and stood on it as the truck continued forward until it struck the mailbox The truck stopped at that point but I could still hear the rear wheels turning on the road until I put it into park

Brake pedal goes to floor when braking. When brakes are applied they need to be pumped first, for pressure to be applied.

The warning lights for the brake and parking brake began intermittently going off on the dashboard. The parking brake was not engaged when the warning lights were on. In mid-January the parking break went while the vehicle was stopped and in Park. The brake would not release. Upon being towed to the dealers, the issue communicated was the the electrical connector for the brake actuator was corroded and the entire wiring harness would need to be replaced. This was odd given the truck was under a year old. The vehicle has been at the dealership for a month with no ETA for the part(s). Despite multiple calls with Stelantis corporate over the past 2 weeks they have been unable/unwilling to disclose the exact part needed, nor why there is no ETA for the part(s).

Braking Malfunction #1 - Location:  [XXX] /right hand turn to [XXX] . On [XXX], Our family was headed from Fieldstone Assisted Living in Olympia to Alderbrook Resort in Union Washington for Thanksgiving dinner. When slowing down to make a right hand turn off of [XXX], Truck's front brakes completely seized up, making a bucking type motion and the back brakes failed (tires were accelerating while actually braking). The truck became uncontrollable and veered over into the path of an oncoming car.  The oncoming car saw we were having an issue and stopped so as to not be hit head on by our truck. The truck ended up in the dirt alongside the left lane.  After sitting a few minutes to collect ourselves and trying to figure what just happened, tested the brakes and they appeared to re-engage.  NO WARNING LIGHTS EVER CAME ON. Braking Malfunction #2 - Location:  [XXX] [XXX]. Six weeks after the first braking malfunction, heading home from running errands. As began approaching a red light, pressed the brakes to slow down and stop for the light. The front brakes completely failed (like pressing into a soft pillow that went all the way to the floor with absolutely no braking). At the same time, the back tires were accelerating/spinning  (like with incident #1). To avoid running the red light, took a sharp hair pin turn (right) onto a side road nearly hitting two cars - one with small children in it.  Had to make a quick decision if should run the truck into the ditch to stop it. Instead took a sharp left onto a side road and then another left into a warehouse parking and was able to finally stop the truck. Turned off the truck and after sitting for a bit, tested the brakes and they seemed to be working. Slowly drove the truck home with flashers on. NO WARNING LIGHTS EVER CAME ON. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I was pulling out of a gas station onto the main road and the truck started shaking and died, parking brake came on and the battery right came on….1st incident Second incident I was baking out of a parking space and the same thing happened, truck started shaking and died, parking brake came on and the battery light lit up on the dash…. Dealership told me they couldn’t do anything about it because it didn’t do it while they had it…. Very dangerous issue, I’ve done a lot of research and all leads back to auto/ stop feature and etorque generator… My truck only has 11,000 miles on it… Please look into this, I have small kids and don’t want them harmed because of a malfunction from my truck… Thank you..

The contact owns a 2024 Ram 1500. The contact stated while driving approximately 5 MPH, the vehicle lost power, the parking brake activated, and the transmission independently shifted into the park. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The instrument panel showed that the battery charge had dropped to 12-Volts. The failure had occurred twice. The tow truck company was contacted and was able to recharge the battery and the contact to drove the vehicle to the residence. The contact stated that approximately 3 weeks later the failure recurred a second time at 1,800 miles. The vehicle was towed to the dealer however, the dealer was unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 800.

Bought vehicle brand new with roughly 30 miles. Put less than 20 more on it and the service ABS light/service stability control system/4wd system unavailable lights came on the vehicle. Used my scanner, cleared codes and light went off. After about 12 more miles, they all came back on.

I recently purchased my first ram truck on 1/11/24. On the morning of 1/15/24 monday, I was leaving my work and as I tried to turn on my truck, it would not turn due to battery being dead. So, I asked coworker of mine to give me a jump. After 10 minutes or so, trunk was on but it had engine and abs, and trailer brake light on. I only had put on 277 miles at that time. Truck seems to make some random noises when driving. Also, when trying to trying to jump the truck it takes this lound sound in the speaker.
