2015 Ram ECO Diesel with 40K miles started having Electronic Throttle control problem. We're on the third time now and each instance it has taken me 3 days to get an appointment into the service department, and while waiting for the appointment the truck is stuck in limp mode. Error code is always PO 299 which I think is low turbo boost, but not sure. First time service did a simple reset, second time they did a leak test and cleaned turbo sensor. That lasted 200 miles and the lights came back on again. Headed in for the third time but am not optimistic about a fix. In the meantime, I have a very new and very unreliable vehicle on my hands. Anyone else having this problem or have any idea what the fix might be?

George, I had same issues when I first purchased the ram....They replace the computer and reprogrammed. All is good.
