2014 Ram 4500 problems

ram logo

The Ram pickup (marketed as the Dodge Ram until 2010) is a full-size pickup truck manufactured by Stellantis North America (formerly Chrysler Group LLC and FCA US LLC) and marketed from 2010 onwards under the Ram Trucks brand. The current fifth-generation Ram debuted at the 2018 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Michigan, in January of that year.

Previously, Ram was part of the Dodge line of light trucks. The name Ram was first used in 1981 model year Dodge Trucks in October 1980, following the retiring and rebadging of the Dodge D series pickup trucks as well as B-series vans, though the company had used a ram's-head hood ornament on some trucks as early as 1933.

Ram trucks have been named Motor Trend magazine's Truck of the Year eight times; the second-generation Ram won the award in 1994, the third-generation Ram heavy-duty won the award in 2003, the fourth-generation Ram Heavy Duty won in 2010 and the fourth-generation Ram 1500 won in 2013 and 2014, and the current fifth-generation Ram pickup became the first truck in history to win the award three times, winning in 2019, 2020, and 2021.

Common 2014 Ram 4500 problems

The Ram 4500, like many vehicles, can experience a variety of issues throughout its lifespan. Here are some common problems reported by owners of the 2014 Ram 4500, based on the search results:

  • Exhaust system issues: Some owners have reported problems with the exhaust system, including muffler, pipes, catalytic converter, exhaust manifold, heat shields, and other components. These issues can lead to decreased performance, increased emissions, and potential safety hazards.
  • Windows, locks, and latches: Issues with windows, locks, and latches have been reported by some owners. These problems can range from glass defects to malfunctioning seat controls and seat belts. In some cases, these issues can affect the vehicle's safety and functionality.
  • Gear selector and linkage: The gear selector and linkage, as well as the transmission computer, sensor, or solenoid, can experience problems that may result in rough shifting, slipping transmission, leaks, or other issues. These problems can affect the vehicle's drivability and safety.
  • Radiator, cooling fan, water pump, and thermostat: Cooling system issues, such as leaks, overheating, or malfunctioning components like the radiator, cooling fan, water pump, or thermostat, have been reported by some owners. These problems can lead to decreased performance, increased emissions, and potential safety hazards.
  • Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM): The TIPM, which controls and distributes power to all of the electrical functions of the vehicle, including the vehicle safety and ignition systems, has been reported to have issues in some Dodge Ram trucks. This can lead to various electrical problems, including malfunctions in the vehicle's safety systems.
  • Takata airbags: The 2014 Ram 4500, like many other vehicles, has been affected by the massive Takata airbag recall. The recall is due to a defective airbag inflator that has been responsible for 23 deaths and hundreds of injuries. This is one of the largest and most dangerous recalls in automotive history, affecting over 37 million vehicles.
  • Death wobble: Dodge Ram trucks, including the 4500, are susceptible to a front end vibration known as the death wobble. This issue can be caused by various factors, such as tire imbalance, suspension problems, or steering system issues. The death wobble can be a serious safety concern, potentially leading to loss of control over the vehicle.

It is important to note that not all vehicles will experience these issues, and many problems can be addressed through routine maintenance, repairs, or recalls. If you are experiencing any of these issues with your 2014 Ram 4500, it is recommended to consult with a certified mechanic or contact the dealership for further assistance.

THE TECHS TELL ME THAT IS IS AN "ISOLATOR" WHICH KEEPS THE VIBRATION DOWN, BUT THE SHIFTER IS ONLY HELD TOGETHER BY RUBBER. THIS IS ON A HEAVY DUTY WORK TRUCK AND THE PIECE IS HELD TOGETHER BY RUBBER. THIS IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE AT THE TIME OF FAILURE I WAS TOWING A TRAILER WHEN IT BROKE LEAVING ME STUCK IN 6TH GEAR UNABLE TO MOVE THE TRUCK OR PUT INTO NEUTRAL UNTIL I TOOK THE CONSOLE APART AND SHIFTED THE TRANSMISSION INTO NEUTRAL FROM THE TOP OF THE TRANSMISSION. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A WRECK IF I WASNT IN A LOW TRAFFIC AREA. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO DODGE AND THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE EXACT SHIFTER THAT I HAD BUT THE RECALL ONLY APPLIED TO 2015-2016 TRUCKS. THIS IS AN ISSUE BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEY HAVE A FAULTY PRODUCT IN MORE THAN A FEW TRUCKS BUT ONLY 15-16 YEARS ARE BEING ADDRESSED.

  • Summary: Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2012-2021 RAM 3500, 3500 Cab Chassis, 4500 Cab Chassis, and 5500 Cab Chassis vehicles. Incorrect information in the Service and Owner's Manuals may cause the flanged lug nuts to be over-tightened, which could result in a broken wheel stud and possible wheel separation.
  • Consequence: Wheel separation can cause a vehicle crash.
  • Remedy: Dealers will update the torque specification in the owner's manual and other published service documents. Dealers will also inspect the vehicle's wheel studs, replacing them if necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on November 30, 2021.

2018-05-17
  • Manufacturer: Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
  • Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING
  • Summary: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2014-2018 Dodge Journey, Charger and Durango, RAM 2500, 3500, 3500 Cab Chassis (more than 10,000lb), 4500 Cab Chassis and 5500 Cab Chassis, Jeep Cherokee and Grand Cherokee and Chrysler 300, 2014-2019 RAM 1500, 2015-2018 Dodge Challenger, 2015-2017 Chrysler 200, 2016-2018 RAM 3500 Cab Chassis (less than 10,000 lb), 2017-2018 Chrysler Pacifica and 2018 Jeep Wrangler vehicles. These vehicles are being recalled to address a defect that could prevent the cruise control system from disengaging. If, when using cruise control, there is a short circuit within the vehicle's wiring, the driver may not be able to shut off the cruise control either by depressing the brake pedal or manually turning the system off once it has been engaged, resulting in either the vehicle maintaining its current speed or possibly accelerating.
  • Consequence: If the vehicle maintains its speed or accelerates despite attempts to deactivate the cruise control, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
  • Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the software, and perform a software flash on the engine or powertrain control module, free of charge. The recall began June 4, 2018. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Note: Owners are advised to stop using cruise control until the software update has been performed. In the event that cruise control cannot be disengaged while driving, owners should firmly and steadily apply the brakes and shift the transmission to neutral, placing the vehicle in park once it has stopped.
2017-12-21
  • Manufacturer: Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
  • Components: EQUIPMENT
  • Summary: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling various Dodge, Chrysler, and RAM vehicles equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. A list of the affected trailer models is available at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V824-0103.pdf. These extinguishers may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or requiring excessive force to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable. For a full list of the affected fire extinguisher models visit: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17E062-5427.pdf
  • Consequence: If the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury in the event of a fire.

Pushing the brake pedal for prolonged periods when the vehicle is running and in PARK may cause the Brake Transmission Shift Interlock (BTSI) pin to stick in the open position. With the pin in the open position, the transmission can be shifted out of PARK into any gear without pushing the brake pedal or having the key in the ignition.
  • Consequence: Being able to shift the transmission without pushing the brake pedal and/or without a key in the ignition can increase the risk of an unintended vehicle rollaway that may result in personal injury or a crash.
  • Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will update the vehicle software, inspect the BTSI, and, as necessary, replace it, free of charge. The recall began February 26, 2018. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is T79.

The affected vehicles are equipped with radios that have software vulnerabilities that can allow third-party access to certain networked vehicle control systems.
  • Consequence: Exploitation of the software vulnerability may result in unauthorized remote modification and control of certain vehicle systems, increasing the risk of a crash.
  • Remedy: Chrysler will notify and mail affected owners a USB drive that includes a software update that eliminates the vulnerability, free of charge. Optionally, owners may download the update to their own USB drive from http://www.driveuconnect.com/software-update/ or take their vehicle to a Chrysler dealer for immediate installation. In an effort to mitigate the effects of this security vulnerability, Chrysler has had the wireless service provider close the open cellular connection to the vehicle that provided unauthorized access to the vehicle network. This measure may not have been implemented on all vehicles and does not address access by other means that will be remedied by the software update. The recall began on August 25, 2015. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is R40.

The affected vehicles have a steering wheel wiring harness that may rub against the driver air bag module retainer spring.
  • Consequence: This abrasion may result in an electrical short that could cause driver's frontal air bag to unexpectedly deploy. Inadvertent deployment of the air bag may increase the risk of injury and the possibility of a vehicle crash.
  • Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect, repair as necessary, and secure the steering wheel wiring harness. Additionally, protective caps will be added to the air bag retainer spring ends. These repairs will be done free of charge. The recall began on September 18, 2015. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is R36.

The affected vehicles have a maximum governed speed of 106 mph but are fitted with tires that are only rated for a maximum speed of 87 mph.
  • Consequence: If the vehicle exceeds the tires' maximum speed rating, the tires may suddenly fail, increasing the risk of a crash.
