2022 Ram Promaster Electrical problems

Covert Dodge Ram (Ram dealer, Research Blvd, Austin, TX), which confirmed the failure and identified the electric power steering wiring jumper harness between the EPS gear and the EPS module as the cause. This matches open recall 26V-621 (FCA 92D), which shows on this VIN as 'remedy not yet available.' Because no remedy is available, the dealer is asking me to pay for the repair and seek reimbursement from FCA. The vehicle is not safe to drive until repaired. Failed parts can be made available for inspection on request. Mileage approximately 103,000. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

replaced out of pocket. The passenger side window actuator broke, had fixed at dealer then it broke a week later, had dealer repair again. The windshield cowl leaks rain water into and onto the motor. There is a recall open now for power steering with no remedy and was told to keep driving it even if we are not compfortable knowing the steering can go out any moment. Brought to dealer and they claim they dont know what to do and didnt offer a rental. The steering has not failed yet every owner we speak with on the road and online has had all the same exact issues. We only have recepts for coolant and roof repairs

bottom floor of the connector housing, causing severe copper oxidation (galvanic corrosion) and visible electrical arcing on a constantly energized 12V male pin inside the EPS gear cylinder. This high-current bottleneck drops voltage under load, causing the internal ECU to cut assist as a safety fail-safe.Critically, this design defect created an immediate, progressive cascading failure dating back to the very first month of ownership. Because this 12V power line remains constantly "hot" while parked, the pooling water established an un-metered short-circuit bridge directly to the frame ground. This forced an aggressive parasitic electrical drain that repeatedly flattened the battery after sitting for short two-week intervals throughout its lifespan, destroying the original factory battery.The dealer's safety protocol requires a complete steering rack replacement. However, because Ram recognized this vulnerability, they completely superseded the part with a redesigned assembly that forces consumers to purchase new, non-faulty tie rod assemblies just to make it compatible, inflating costs to over $6,000. This data directly supports the active NHTSA investigation into 2022-2023 ProMaster steering modules. Furthermore I imagine that since some people may continue to drive the vehicle under this particular condition of "barely being affected" until there is sudden failure on the highway or zero signs prior to catastrophic failure. I STILL OWE $ ON THIS VEHICLE

should be able to drive a vehicle with this kind of problem. This recall was issued several months ago, I think from October 2025. This van has a camper made in it by Thor Twist and sold by Camping World in Arkansas. We bought it to travel around the country we retire. What a nightmare. We have a granddaughter who lives with us and goes camping with us most of the time. We also have a handicapped daughter who also travels with us sometimes. She has never been able to walk. What if the van catches on fire while she is with us? My wife and I are in our mid [[redacted]] . We have been losing sleep thinking about this The people we bought it from said it's not their responsibility, same as Thor Twist. They say it's a chassis problem and we need to call Chrysler Corporation. I called the Chrysler Corporation the Dodge dealership near our location. Recall notice states "The remedy for this condition is not currently available. We can't plan any vacation time due to this recall. We now have nightmares about traveling anywhere in this van. We paid over $100,000 for this van and cannot use it. We are requesting that we return the van and get all our money back. We have had nothing but problems with this van and worry about making any trips in it in the future. We have had it in the shop 4 times for recalls and several other times for malfunctioning issues. We were unable to use the van for weeks at a time. Let us return it please. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

steering connector, causing the power steering failure. The owner was informed that the steering rack needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer and local dealer were not contacted. The contact was informed of NHTSA Action Number: PE26002 (STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). The contact stated that the vehicle had experienced the failure listed in the investigation. The failure mileage was 68,974.

offered rental reimbursement, but this does not provide a safe or realistic interim solution for a vehicle that functions as both transportation and housing. The manufacturer has acknowledged a fire risk but has provided no interim safety guidance or accommodation for owners who cannot reasonably stop using the vehicle while awaiting a remedy. I am reporting this as a safety concern due to the lack of a remedy and the absence of interim safety guidance for affected owners. Stellantis has issued a stop-sale on affected vehicles, confirming the seriousness of the defect, while existing owners remain without a viable safety alternative.

prevented by the manufacturers.. I also had a Transmission replacement at 30k miles and full Engine replacement at 55k miles. Currently at 80k Miles... This is Unacceptable for a Commercial fleet vehicle.

impossible to start the engine. They also replaced the PCM. This did not correct the problem. A tech was called from MOPAR who found a STAR ONLINE PUBLICATION for mopar which states that between Ram vehicles ( I don't know if it is specific to ProMasters) manufactured between the dates of 11/29/2021 and 12/23/2021 had an "incorrect encryption software being programmed to the immobilizer modules." If you type the VIN into the Service Library you can verify that S2208000129 is applicable. I was not made aware of this until I picked up the vehicle from the dealer with the old parts reinstalled. My concern is that I don't know what else this problem in terms of the electrical and safety systems.

rear of the van with the help of witnesses. There were no warning signs of an issue with the engine. No warning lights and not burning odor. So, yes, I feel the I, my alpacas, and others safety were put at risk. I am so thankful that the fire started while I was stopped at the rest area and not while driving on the thruway and avoided a real tragedy. The van is a total loss.The incident has been reported to insurance and currently under investigation and are waiting a final report.

time was to drive toward the closest Ram Dealer in Montrose, Colorado---30.99 miles away Flower Motor Company 2580 North Townsend Avenue Montrose, Colorado 81401 Unfortunately, the Fuel ran low via dashboard alert--RAM would not turn off after repeated attempts, so against our better judgement, we added fuel with the SAFETY ISSUE (!!!) of adding fuel to an running vehicle. Again, with what seemed like the only option, we reluctantly added fuel WHILE THE RAM WAS RUNNING!!!! SO SCARY!!!!! Service Department/Dealership at the Flower Motor Company in Montrose, Colorado was closed upon arrival (Dealership and Service Department hours 8:00am-5:30) SAFETY ISSUE!!! We had to sleep in the RAM in the parking lot of the dealership--WITH THE MOTOR RUNNING!!! The Montrose Police came to help turn off engine but with no luck, they agreed that spending the night in the RAM was perhaps the best action, yet this was again a SAFETY ISSUE (!!!) due to the vulnerability of sleeping on a property without permission or security in a city we do not know. EXHAUST EXPOSURE (SAFETY ISSUE!!!) overnight the Flower Motor Group Service Department opened on 06/16/2023 at 7:30-5:30. We were awakened by the Service Manager (SAFETY ISSUE!!!). We did know who he was initially and were rightfully reluctant to open the doors when we knocked and said, "Wake up!" DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS attached.
