Some Dodge Ram 1500 owners report experiencing stalling after the engine warms up, leading to difficulties in restarting until the vehicle cools down. This issue may be linked to the fuel system, as the engine ceases to run when heated. Additionally, some owners suspect ignition system problems, such as faulty ignition coils or modules, which can hinder both starting and running performance. Electrical issues, including loose grounds or dirty terminals, have also been noted as potential causes for restarting difficulties after warming up. In certain cases, the problem may be intermittent, complicating diagnosis, particularly if the stalling does not occur during dealership testing. To address these concerns, owners are advised to conduct thorough diagnostics on the fuel and ignition systems, check the security of all grounds, and ensure that battery cables are tight and terminals clean to mitigate voltage fluctuations affecting the alternator.
