Ram Promaster Engine problems by year

battery to turn off the vehicle. The contact was dissatisfied with the suggestion. The vehicle remained at the dealer for additional diagnostic tests. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. The contact was advised to take the vehicle back to the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 14,000.

vehicle would be a better option because it had fewer miles and was a heavy-duty model. Based on these representations and my understanding that this vehicle was a better option for my needs, I agreed to purchase it for approximately $30,000. Within 15 days of the purchase, the vehicle began experiencing serious mechanical issues. I promptly returned to your dealership to request assistance; however, I was denied service. I later took the vehicle to an authorized RAM dealership for a professional inspection and diagnostic evaluation. The diagnostic identified multiple issues, including: A coolant/antifreeze-related issue requiring service; A defective fuel pump; Failure of the air-conditioning system; and Abnormal engine noise requiring further diagnosis and repair. Additionally, after the purchase, I obtained a Carfax Vehicle History Report that revealed that the vehicle had been involved in an accident in 2024. I was not aware of this accident history at the time I purchased the vehicle, and this information was not disclosed to me before or during the sale, to the best of my knowledge. I later discovered that the vehicle I purchased had significant mechanical problems in addition to the accident history. These circumstances have resulted in financial losses, repair expenses, lost time, and disruption to my work. I respectfully request that High Quality Auto Group provide a fair and prompt resolution to this matter. I request consideration of one or more of

would need to pay approximately 1,500 for repairs. I was surprised because there was no known leak when I delivered the vehicle. I immediately contacted MOPAR for assistance and asked whether the leak could be related to the recall service or whether the repair should be covered. Unfortunately, MOPAR did not resolve my concern. I declined the 1,500 repair. The dealer told me they could not guarantee there would be no leaks after the recall repair was completed. When I picked up my truck, the dealer did not tell me that the coolant leak was still present or warn me about driving the vehicle. I drove the truck home. After getting home, I opened the hood and discovered a long screwdriver left inside the engine compartment. I am not claiming that the dealer caused the coolant leak. However, I am concerned about the timing of the leak, the recall service, the 1,500 repair demand, the lack of warning at pickup, and the screwdriver left in the engine compartment. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate whether this coolant leak may be related to Recall 67C, the recall repair, an improper repair, or another safety defect. NOTE: I am now seeing on your website that it appears the Recall 67C repair has not been recorded as completed for my vehicle. I have uploaded a screenshot of the information shown on the website for your reference. Please review this discrepancy as part of my complaint.

failure was intermittent. The coolant level failed to remain at the proper levels and coolant needed to be added frequently. The contact stated that the battery suddenly lost power and need to be recharged more frequently. The dealer was contacted several times; however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The dealer was recently contacted, and the contact was informed that an inspection was needed before ordering the parts. The dealer stated that it might take a day or two to complete the inspection and order the parts but could not provide a time for when the parts would be received or when the repair would be completed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 36,000.

recurred on Cylinder 4 after driving it about 5000+ miles, on June 13, 2026. Again, misfire check-engine code and loss of compression on cylinder 4. The engine ran very rough and had loss of power. The engine is still under investigation by another Ram dealership service department (Crest Auto World, Center Conway, NH). I have learned that loss of compression can cause the engine to stall, lose acceleration power (which it did), and potentially throw a rod and blow a hole in the engine. Since this was caused by a manufacturing defect, I am also concerned that there are other vans with this issue on the road.

have to pay for extra cost such as a 2x4. Please see below. It is my understanding that the Dealer is in the wrong here. •Absolute Free Labor: Dealerships enter franchise contracts with the manufacturer requiring them to execute recall repairs for free. Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is legally obligated to provide the instructions and billable labor hours to the dealership. •The "2x4" Tool Excuse: If a manufacturer's official technical service bulletin specifies a specific physical manipulation or tool - even a makeshift one like a 2x4 - to complete the repair, that labor time is factored into the flat-rate time Chrysler pays the dealer. The dealer cannot pass "difficult labor" or tool costs onto you. •No Deductibles or Add-ons: A dealer cannot apply any separate fees or surcharges to offset their operational challenges while resolving a safety defect.

cylinders 3 and 4, coolant coming out of exhaust, stretched engine bolts, warped block and head, and internal coolant leak causing overheat. No external leaks from the cooling system were found. The internal component failures caused the overheating not the reverse. The vehicle was still within its active powertrain warranty at time of failure. Stellantis denied the warranty claim under TSB D-23-20 claiming an undetermined overheat caused the engine failure directly contradicting their own dealer's findings which show zero external cause. I have paid $9,000 out of pocket for repairs that should be covered under active powertrain warranty on a 3-year-old vehicle under 40,000 miles. I am requesting NHTSA investigate this failure pattern in the 3.6L V6 Ram ProMaster 2500 as other commercial operators may face the same sudden dangerous failure.

aware that smoke was coming from the engine compartment. Shortly afterwards, the battery was disconnected, the fan was running, and the vehicle was engulfed in flames. The contact stated that the headlights, hood, windshield, and grill were damaged by the fire. There was no one in the vehicle at the time of the fire, and there were no injuries sustained. The contact stated the local fire department was contacted. The vehicle was not inspected or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The contact associated the failure with the recall. The failure mileage on the vehicle was approximately 143,000.

parts including the steering sensor and steering column were replaced; however, the failure returned weeks later after the repair. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired and remained with the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 33,000.
