Description of the problem	"brake transmission shift interlock" i recently received my latest recall (this recall makes 4 in total since initial purchase of my 2013 ram 1500). This latest recall is t79, and the previous 3 were: t25; r36; r23 all recalls are due to safety related issues on my ram. This latest recall (t79) is the most concerning, because the vehicle can actually roll away while in the park position, without emergency brake engaged. I received recall t79 in early february 2018, and as of today 03/21/18, parts are still not available at my local fca dealership to fix this dangerous safety issue. For this reason my truck stays parked and only has approximately 14,800 miles, and my resale value has greatly been devalued. I do not feel safe behind the wheel of my truck and therefore i do not drive it. I feel i was mislead into believing i was buying a vehicle that was safe and fit to operate on the road, and this has not been the case. My truck is unsafe to operate due to this most recent recall t79, and i feel cheated out of a vehicle that i cannot even operate safely. I emailed fca, and explained to them that i felt i was mislead into purchasing an unsafe vehicle and would like a refund for the purchase price of the vehicle, because it is becoming more apparent to me that i was sold a lemon. There are over 1. 5 million trucks out there with this t79 recall and parts, at least in my area, are currently not available, which poses an enormous risk and liability to continue to operate. 4 safety recalls in less than 15,000 miles, and almost 1 for every year of ownership is completely unacceptable. Thank you very much, -[xxx] phone [xxx] (

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
