2009 Dodge Ram 1500 impossible to stop smoothly by asdfdave

I am interested in purchasing the 5.7L, 3.92 axle, Quad Cab. But I noticed in a couple of trucks (one in particular) that when I attempt to come to a smooth stop - from a low speed - the truck pulses (at a point just shy of stopping) and you can feel the entire truck mildly bucking/pushing/bouncing/shuddering forward - like a barrage of little ripples front-to-back. To all current 2009 Dodge Ram 1500, anyone know if their trucks do this too? Is this an isolated phenomenon? Thank you in advance for your input.

Sounds like the ABS braking system may be malfunctioning or just might be real noticable in your RAM. The ABS pulsates so your wheels dont lock up in a hard brake or on slippery surfaces to keep the wheels rolling so you dont slide out.

It certainly could be an ABS issue - I'm coming to an easy stop in the parking lot of the dealership on a dry pavement (asphalt) and while approaching intersections- so the ABS should never engage in this situation. The salesman acknowledged it himself and even tested another vehicle and we both noticed it more on this particular truck (didn't care for the color/features on the Ram that was smoother). I know this sounds like knit-picking, but if no one else notices this, I suppose I should set my sights on another Ram. Thank you for replying to the original post.

Agreed. Try another. Mine doesn't do any of what you described.

its a automatic it starts off in 3rd when its in drive. when i go from park down to 1st and run through it manually its fine like new but if i should go from drive to !st it starts out in 2nd. so another words when i get to a light as long as i go into park and then shift into 1st its ok, i just cant start it out in drive because it stays in third.

Shift lever RPMS by kmb143

hi, not sure how to put this, but I have a 5.9l V8. My shift lever is loose, and I am having problems getting the truck into drive I need to at times go down to 2nd then find my way back up. Sometimes while driving i do not notice that I am not yet out of 2nd until I hit the highway and try to pick up speed. Then the engine reves up and I have to fiddle with the lever quickly going in Neut, and trying to get it to drop into gear. I also find my rpms going between 1 and 3 while driving and tapping the lever seems to knock it back down. I am going to the shop for inspection and want them to look at it for me. But would like a heads up of what to expect. I have no lights on. So I dont beleive there is a trans issue. I did have my trans repalced at 86,000 miles. it now has 123,000. Any idea as to how much getting possibly the gear shifter replaced could cost, and is this a labor intensefied job. Thanks ahead of time for any help received.

Does anyone know what trans is in a 1999 B150 Van with an automatic 3.9 ? Is it the same as the one in a 2001 Ram 1500 with the same motor ? Please help.
