2002 Dodge Ram 2500 Engine problems

Driving down the road wont accelate then loose power , then afew a few minutes drives great then never know when it will not accelate drange losing power like that

Driving down the interstate going about 75 mph I needed to brake but noticed the truck was not slowing down and the rpm were not reducing, in fact they were increasing. Despite me not having my foot on the pedal the truck would not slow down. I had to use extreme pressure on the brakes and pull off the road to get the truck to slow down. Once slowed if I released pressure off the brakes the truck would start to accelerate. I put the truck into park and the rpm went up to 5000 and stayed. I turn off the truck and...

Tl* the contact owns a 2002 dodge ram 2500. The contact was driving approximately 70 mph when the vehicle experienced an abnormal reduction in engine power. The vehicle was turned off and the battery cables were disconnected. After waiting ten minutes, the battery cables were reconnected and the vehicle resumed as normal. The erratic failure recurred fifteen times. The vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 65,000.

My 2002 dodge ram 2500 is having problems with its vp-44 engine pump. It gets a "dead pedal" and in traffic it suddenly stops. There isn't anything you can do but pull over until it comes back on. This isn't a good thing in heavy traffic, especially on a 4 line road in the left lane. This almost caused an accident with a speeding semi (he almost rear ended me!). *Tr

2002 Dodge 2500 has problems with the diesel flow fuel problem. *Ts since 48,500 miles the engine periodically loses power and drops to 1500 rpm's. This failure mostly occurs with a load on board and when in traffic. The engine regains full power within 2-5 miles. A computer scan at a local repair facility indicated a possible problem in the injector timing circuit or in the pump system. *Nm

Canister purge hoses and vapor harness hoses have cracked and dry rotted. There is an emissions recall listed on your web site for this problem but the dealer is saying there is no recall listed thru daimler chrysler for my specific vehicle. *Nm

Dt: 2002 dodge ram 2500 hd quad cab 4 wheel drive slt. The truck has been in the repair shop at least 15 times for not having any power. This happened mainly when towing a trailer. Prior to purchasing the truck the dealer replaced the fuel injection pump and fuel pump. They have been replaced 3 times last year. The dealer said that transmission was not programmed for the size tires that were on the vehicle. Also, turbo- charger was bad, and they replaced it, but, it did not work. Took back vehicle o...

At approximately 56,000 miles I had a 216 vehicle engine code come up. This showed a failure in the injection pump. I have approximately 79,000 miles on the vehicle and the code has once again come up. I went to the dealer and they see "everything" is ok and can't figure out why the light is coming on. The vehicle is now beginning to suge during driving, a sign of not enough fuel being delivered to the engine. In speaking with multiple diesel mechanics in the area this is a problem cummins has with the isb engine. *Ak

While pulling out of the driveway, there was no power steering and no brakes. After the vehicle was towed to the dealer, no defects were found, however , the vehicle was suspected to have a valve leaked. The consumer later saw oil on the ground, got into the vehicle and the same thing occurred again. He let the vehicle run for a few minutes and the power and brakes came back. *Jb

Consumer states that the crankcase oil fumes enter the cab at idle or slow speed when the air conditioner is set on outside air settings, when the air conditioner is set on recirculated or cab air only, this condition does not happen. *Slc
