    CEL and Service Electronic Throttle Control Message, Limp Mode But No Codes??

    After months of running rough and after sending the truck to two dealerships to diagnose the problem, they finally got the truck to send a code that pointed to the tone wheel. $175 to diagnose, $2K to fix and it finally runs beautifully.

    My Truck "jerks" or "kicks" hard while driving.

    It's beyond screwy and I'm really dissapointed in Dodge and the two dealerships I dealt with. I'm still pursuing resolution...it's not over yet.

That said, I was planning to change the fluid to see if that's the issue. I've been reading about the different steps in doing so and while it is a little tricky, I...

    My Truck "jerks" or "kicks" hard while driving.

    Thanks for the response. Your problem is very interesting to say the least. My Ram started doing it in the summer and does it shortly after starting it, while doing some city driving and even after running for a couple hours. There doesn't seem to be any consistant triggering RPM, speed...

    My Truck "jerks" or "kicks" hard while driving.

    Hello, I’ve got a 2017 Ram EcoDiesel with 55K miles. I’ve owned if for about a year and absolutely love it. A couple weeks ago while driving at about 55mph, the truck jerked as if it were shifting hard. The following day it started doing it more often while at constant highway speeds. Lately...
