I have a 2021 Ram 3500 Cummins.
All the sudden. A few weeks ago, I was driving 65mph and the dash lit up with warnings, message said "service 4wd system", check engine light came on, and then it slammed down into 1st gear (scary while driving that fast). When put in Park, the "P" blinks and message says "Vehicle Not in park".

Dealership technicians are stumped. It drives, but accelerates extremely slowly. I have a 7 month old truck, but have to put my flashers on as I accelerate to let drivers know I'm slow.

Any ideas. Some think maybe it's a security system thing. But I can't find anything matching symptoms when looking at issues caused by KARR security system.
 
Has water entered the engine bay, cleaning etc?
Check and clean all the electrical connections having anything to do with the powertrain. Either spray silicone or apply dielectric grease when reconnecting the electrical connections.
Also look for damaged wire looms or connections.
Good luck, hope you get it figured out
 
No specific help for you on your HO, but when I worked for Volvo, we had a lot of issues in people’s cars who had aftermarket alarm systems installed.
