When truck disengaged from Drive while in motion I lost all acceleration power, and had to coast over to side of road to a stop.  The truck disengaged from Drive on 3 other occasions. I almost died when the truck disengaged from drive while makeing a turn through an intersection and almost getting hit my a tractor trailer. I contacted Dodge FCA, filed complaint, then i took the truck to the dealer and after having my truck for 22 days, they said I needed a new transmission on my 2019 ram 1500.  The truck drove fine for 2 weeks then it disengaged from Drive again while driving, 2 times this morning.  I contacted dodge fca and they said they couldn't do anything till the dealer looks at it.   This is a major safety issue.  I refuse to let my wife and kids ride in this truck because I am not going to have my wife and kids die in this truck because of these major safety issues.  This is a known issue on all dodge ram online forums and dodge has not addressed this issue or acknowledged it.  There is something wrong with the electrician system.  I have had 2 batteries replaced, radio replaced, manifold, transmission, full tail light housing, active noise cancelation system fixed. There has been so many issues from day one when I bought the truck, but this MAJOR issue with the truck disengaging from drive to neutral while in motion is the most serious.  Seems like dodge doesn't have an issue till someone dies in an accident from this issue, because this issue can not be replicated and doesn't not show up at a fault on the dealer test systems, due it everything in vehicles being computerized and digital.  Something needs to be done about this","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2019","productMake":"RAM","productModel":"1500","manufacturer":"Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)"}]}]}
