2023 Ram 3500 6.7 65,000 miles first time diesel owner. Still has stock DEF system and it is full.
First time driving it the other day I got a few miles down the road and I had a total loss of throttle control, not just a bogg that I could tell, it seemed that I had no control over the rpm at all. Then it came back when I went to turn around. On the way back it was driving normal then started doing it again. Could this be TPS, APPS , TVPS, or ECM? And if so where is all of this located? My brother in law said it could just need force regeneration but I couldn’t see it just leaving me a sitting duck like that. Did a high idle for a while couldn’t get it to regen.

The only light I have is traction control and message says service stabilitrack. Lots of codes in the history but won’t let me clear them.

I picked this up wrecked from the auction but it wasn’t hit hard no air bags went off or anything engine related just a bent lower control arm and a track bar. Just body damage.

Thanks in advance.
 
If anyone has any input on this it would be greatly appreciated. What should my next step be just take it to a dealer?

Best to take it to a dealer or post the codes here. Codes can help some people help you understand the problem.
