Bucking and jerking, stalling out at idle and low throttle, and misfire codes.

Mine is in the shop for the 3rd time. It has almost 630 miles on it.

I swung by my dealer yesterday and popped in to see what was happening, they said a star case is open on my truck now. I guess that means more people are looking at it?

I will not buy another ram truck anytime soon. Note that I didn't say never, but it'll take a while before I'm convinced they have the lid sat on, so to speak. Same with ford-I was considering a ford, but their qc is a hot mess right now too, as is toyota's apparently. Same with gm and their...

Christ, at that rate mine will have been to/from the dealership 3 times for the same problem and lemon lawed before you get yours back!

Well, mine's back at it again. Severe bucking and stumbling, very little power. Same codes-0300 to 0306. I already dropped it off at the dealer. This truck has had an improperly installed charge air hose seal replaced or fixed, injectors recalibrated, and the new flash applied.

Yeah, AAM has made all 3/4 and 1 ton dodge/ram rearends since 2003 as far as I know. I seem to recall that hemi r/t's got a dana 60 with 4.10 gears, too. Nothing wrong with a dana 60, they're pretty strong.

I think I may have felt that occasionally. First thing that went through my mind was "I hope it isn't the converter clutch chattering". Then it went away and I forgot about it. Given the other problems I've had with this truck, I tend to not focus on seemingly small things much.

I think they're aluminum shafts, which need to be bigger diameter (at the same material thickness) to have both the same torsional strength and critical speed (speed above which it will start oscillating and then bend and destroy itself) as steel.

Oh boy, what could go wrong there...

Then perhaps it's not all software, maybe it's an interaction between software and hardware that is marginal on some trucks. Essentially, a form of tolerance stacking that's predisposed to cause problems because of stuff we don't know yet.

Sometime in March. Please note, since I wrote the post you quoted I've had plenty of trouble. May now be fixed, don't know yet.

I've only driven my truck like 5 miles since I got the update, so it's way too early to tell whether it fixed mine or not.

There are a lot of different explanations offered here for what that battery's function is. Could just disconnect it and see what happens (or doesn't happen).

You should be concerned. Had I known the extent of the problems I likely wouldn't have bought one.

Dealer called me just a couple minutes ago. They flashed the pcm and recalibrated the injectors, whatever that means. They said the calibration of the injectors should address the flooding I apparently had when it would not start at the gas pump last Monday. I asked if the pcm recalibration...

Just took my truck back in to the dealer, since last visit where they found/fixed improperly installed charge air hose seal, it has almost stranded me at the gas station and then Sunday it started bucking and stalling, CEL came on, 7 misfire codes stored. It has run fine since, though the CEL...

Yes, I get it. I gave them a 10 last time because it seemed they had fixed it. Even now, I'm hesitant to give them a rating that would harm them because I believe the problem I'm having is caused by Ram, not the dealer. So far, few dealers seem to have been able to fix the issue with check...

Mine did it again yesterday. The surging/bucking, stalling, and check engine light. 7 codes stored, all misfire-related. Nothing on the mass airflow sensor this time. Luckily I already have an appointment to bring it in this Wednesday because of it trying to strand me at the gas station last...

Oh geez, that sucks. I'm sorry you're going through that.
