NHTSA complaint #1902439 (ODI reference 11527255) concerns a 2015 RAM 1500 and was filed on June 15, 2023. The owner reports the failure occurred on May 3, 2023. The report was geocoded to Texas based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as fuel system, diesel:delivery:fuel pump, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same RAM 1500 cohort independently describe similar fuel system, diesel:delivery:fuel pump failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2015 RAM 1500 shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
2015 RAM 1500-Consumer states "truck stopped going 75 miles per hour" on the highway. Consumers husband had to pull over to the shoulder & truck refused to start again. Consumers husband call for a tow. The tow trucks policy is one rider. Consumers son is disable and relies on father to drive. Consumer states: "This left my husband to the mercy to flag down a car and ask them if they could take my son. That may not sound like a huge deal, but my son's disability causes him not to know directions or place and space. The fear of getting in a car with completely and total strangers, hoping they would take him to Paducah was horrifying to him and me. He's still having fearful thought about that event. He chewed his finger nails so bad that the hotel towel was covered with blood from anxiety. It was completely and utterly ridiculous. Two days were spent trying to figure out what the issue was with the Truck. The dealership put in a new computer board, that wasn't the issue. We got charged
