| Feb 2021 | SERVICE BRAKES,BACK OVER PREVENTION,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | I WAS DRIVING ON I-15 BETWEEN CEDAR CITY, UT AND ST GEORGE, UT. DRIVING APPROX 75MPH WHEN SUDDENLY TRAFFIC WAS STOPPED IN FRONT OF ME IN BOTH LANES. APPLIED BRAKES WITH ABSOLUTELY NO RESULTS. DROVE OFF OF PAVED PORTION OF HIGHWAY TO AVOID HITTING STOPPED CARS. VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 500 MILES ON IT AND I HAD OWNED IT FOR 3 DAYS. FINALLY GOT VEHICLE STOPPED APPROX 3/4 MILE DOWN THE ROAD. APPROX $1700 DAMAGE TO VEHICLE. APPROX 5 MONTHS LATER I PULLED INTO U.S POST OFFICE TO PARK. BRAKES AGAIN FAILED AND I HIT BRICK BUILDING AT APPROX 5MPH OR LESS. APPROX $5000 DAMAGE TO VEHICLE AND UNCERTAIN OF DOLLAR DAMAGE TO P.O. BUILDING. THREE DAYS LATER I PULLED INTO MA PARKING LOT, BRAKES FAILED AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO AVOID ANY PARKED CARS, MAINLY BECAUSE PARKING LOT WAS ALMOST EMPTY. I WAS ABLE TO USE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP IT. THE FOLLOWING MONDAY I TOOK IT TO STEPHEN WADE DEALERSHIP. THEY HAD IT FOR 5 DAYS, CHECKED FOR CODES, DROVE IT APPROX 8 MILES AND TOLD ME TO COME GET IT. THEY COULD FIND NOTHING. FACTORY CUSTOMER CARE TOLD ME TO TAKE IT BACK TO DEALERSHIP. CALLED FOR APPT AND WAS INFORMED THAT DUE TO SAFETY PROBLEM AND ACCIDENT, THEY WOULD NOT TOUCH IT. CALLED RAM CUSTOMER CARE BACK, TOLD THEM DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO LOOK AT IT. CUSTOMER CARE SAID TO TAKE TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP. NEXT CLOSEST DEALERSHIP IS OVER 120 MILES AWAY. THEY SAID DEALERSHIP HAS RIGHT TO REFUSE TO WORK ON IT AND THEN TOLD ME THAT RAM FACTORY TECH GAVE ORDERS NOT TO TOUCH IT. NOW I HAVE A RAM TRUCK WITH BRAKE PROBLEMS THAT NEITHER LOCAL DEALERSHIP OR FACTORY TECH WILL ACCEPT TO WORK ON. I HAVE A $70,000 MSRP, 5,400 LB "PAPER WEIGHT". NO HELP FROM FACTORY.

| Feb 2021 | SERVICE BRAKES | OUR ISSUES WITH OUR 2020 DODGE RAM STARTED ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 15TH. AFTER ARRIVING HOME, I PARKED THE VEHICLE AND ENTERED MY HOME AROUND 6:45 PM(WITNESSED ON VIDEO); AT 7:45 PM I WENT OUTSIDE TO GET SOMETHING I HAD FORGOTTEN IN THE TRUCK AND NOTICED IT AT THE BOTTOM OF OUR DRIVEWAY (ON RING VIDEO). I WENT INSIDE TO GET MY HUSBAND WHO CAME OUT AND PULLED IT BACK INTO THE DRIVEWAY AND ENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKE.WE LEFT HOME THE NEXT DAY AND NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE STARTED TO "CHUG" AS WE SLOWED DOWN AND TOOK A LEFT TURN. WE CALLED OUR DEALERSHIP AND WERE URGED TO BRING IN THE TRUCK THAT DAY AS THEY STATED THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. UPON ARRIVING HOME TO UNLOAD EVERYTHING BEFORE HEADING IN, WE PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK. MY HUSBAND AND I EXITED THE VEHICLE (OUR CHILDREN WERE IN THE BACK SEAT) WHEN AT 1:27 PM IT STARTED TO ROLL BACK DOWN OUR DRIVEWAY. AFRAID FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR KIDS, MY HUSBAND QUICKLY JUMPED BACK IN AND APPLIED THE BRAKE MANUALLY. EVEN THOUGH THE TRUCK WAS IN PARK, IF HE TOOK HIS FOOT OFF OF THE BRAKE, IT WOULD CONTINUE TO ROLL. ONTUESDAY, JANUARY 19TH, A SERVICE MAN ASKED FOR MY HUSBAND TO COME IN AND DISCUSS THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE VIDEO WE SENT IN (RING VIDEO)) AND DO A TEST DRIVE WITH A TECHNICIAN. DURING THE TEST DRIVE THE TECHNICIAN DROVE THE TRUCK AND EXPERIENCED NO ISSUES, AT THIS POINT HE ASKED MY HUSBAND TO SWITCH SEATS AND DRIVE INSTEAD. ON LEVEL GROUND, THE TRUCK WAS PUT IN PARK, THE TECH ASKED HIM TO ENGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE AND THEN PUT IT INTO GEAR WITHOUT DISENGAGING THE PARKING BRAKE AND THE TRUCK STARTED TO ROLL FORWARD. ADDITIONALLY, HE HAD HIM DO THE SAME PROCESS IN REVERSE AND HAD THE SAME RESULTS WITH THE TRUCK ROLLING BACKWARDS. AT THIS POINT, THE TECHNICIAN SHARED THE SAFETY CONCERNS FOR OUR FAMILY AND WANTED TO RUN MORE TESTS SINCE THEY WERE ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE SAME ISSUE AS THE VIDEO WE HAD SENT IN ON FLAT GROUND. | Crash: No Fire: No | 11,850 |

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. | Crash: No Fire: No | 100 |

| Jan 2021 | STRUCTURE | THE REAR FRAME AROUND THE REAR CAB WINDOW CRACKED AND IS LEAKING WATER. THIS IS ON A RAM 1500 THAT IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD WITH ONLY 5,500 MILES ON IT. THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY UNUSUAL USE OR DAMAGE THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THIS TO HAPPEN. MANY OTHER OWNERS ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS EXACT SAME CRACK AND WATER LEAK. REPLACEMENT WINDOWS DON'T SEEM TO FIX THE ISSUE AND CRACK AGAIN. | Crash: No Fire: No | 5,500 |

| Dec 2020 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | WHILE DRIVING MY 2020 RAM 1500 LARAMIE WITH ONLY 5K MILES ON THE ODOMETER, I STOPPED BEHIND A SCHOOL BUS. THE TRUCK'S START/STOP FEATURE ACTIVATED AS IT NORMALLY DOES AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. I PRESSED THE DASHBOARD BUTTON TO DE-ACTIVATE THE START/STOP FEATURE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE TRIP. WHEN I DID THIS, A LOUD ELECTRICAL SPARK SOUND OCCURRED AND THE TRUCK COMPLETELY DIED IN THE ROADWAY. ALL POWER WAS LOST, I COULD NOT EVEN ACTIVATE THE HAZARD LIGHTS. THERE WAS A STRONG ODOR OF SOMETHING BURNING IN THE CABIN. NO SMOKE WAS VISIBLE, THOUGH.

| Dec 2020 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | 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 | Crash: Yes Fire: No | 6,000 |

IT DID IT AGAIN THE SAME DAY. WHICH TELLS ME IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH AN UPDATE ISSUE. PLEASE FIX. NAVIGATION, MEDIA, PHONE CALLS ARE ALL LINKED INTO THIS ONE SYSTEM WHICH CAN BE DANGEROUS WHEN YOU HAVE TO DIVERT YOUR ATTENTION ELSEWHERE TO DEAL WITH THIS PROBLEM. IT WILL HAPPEN WHEN DRIVING, SITTING STILL, PARKED, DURING REMOTE STARTS, ANYTIME. | Crash: No Fire: No | 25,000 |
| Nov 2020 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE.
