Same problem here with my '23. If I make a normal turn (left turn) it usually doesn't shut off. If I make a more drastic turn, it will turn off. Figured I'll wait until it's ready for it's first oil change to take it to the dealer. Though I feel like they're going to tell me it's normal or that they can't reproduce the problem. We'll see. At least I have many dealers to choose from in the area. Probably 5 dealers within 30 minutes.

There is a recall for the turn signals stalk.

I just wanted to add my 2023 blinker stock seems to be defective from the factory. I did notice it was difficult to just bump to get the three flashes for changing lanes without activating the detent and having it stay on. Additionally when I use my left turn signal it does not cancel after the turn, it sticks and I have to manually push it back to center every time. I wonder if they're having quality issues with the 2023 turn signal stocks.

I'm going to have them take a look at it the next time I drop it off for service.

Not a major issue but something to complain about.
Did you ever happen to get a resolution to this? I have the same issue on my 2023 1500 Limited. I found another forum for TRX's that seem to mention a recall notice NHTSA Campaign Number 23V799000, but when I searched my VIN on the NHTSA site it did not return any hits. Have not gone to dealer yet, but frustrated nonetheless as this was a lot of money for a truck. Got the truck in August 2023, noticed problem early on, within a few thousand miles, but was inconsistent-- seems to have gotten worse over last few months. Still under 10k on the odometer now.

You are still under factory warranty, not sure why the hesitation to take it to the dealer for repair. Even if there isn't a recall

Some people need online reassurance. The amount of people that say "I see it on a forum and its common", is absolutely crazy.

Yes, I took it to the dealer and mentioned it and they replaced the blinker switch and clock spring with zero hesitation. I also had my blower motor start to make a growling noise when i turned my AC on high and took it back to the dealer a second time where they put in a new fan motor assembly with no issues as well.

Having anything go wrong with the truck is annoying but those two issues were resolved without issue.

Seems like the problem is now happening again after having the part replaced last year. Hoping to figure out if it is all the same issues as last time and see if the dealer can replace again. Anyone else have this issue again after a replacement?

Mines been flawless since the replacement.

My biggest issue now is transmission problems. I'm getting intermittent hard shifts and grinding noises when taking off from first. I have a dealer appointment tomorrow.

Are these when you let off the accelerator? Some of us have been having "thud" like feelings when letting off the accelerator. I'm also battling a rumble type feeling when idling that I can feel in my seat, the famous clunk sound (though I made it better with some different parts but it's still there occassionally) and a vibration when going down the road at varying speeds. My local tire shop has balanced my wheels and tires multiple times and swear that's not the problem. Dealership of course says they don't feel or hear any of these concerns when I take it in. This may be my last Ram once this lease is up unfortunately.

All of my transmission noises are from a dead stop, after I have been stopped for a moment like when the start stop engages and I'm sitting for a bit then when I go to take off it makes a grinding noise then slams into gear. It's either slamming into first gear trying to get the truck moving or immediately trying to shift into second gear and grinding.
