No start this morning on my 2013

Had my ram about 3 weeks. 32k miles on it. Started up this morning at the park headed into town to get some breakfast. Came back out after eating and the truck won't start no clicks no nothing from the engine. Dash lights up like normal but nothing happens when I turn the key. Tried both keys as well. Called Chrysler and they towed it to the nearest dealer truck still under warranty. Any ideas? Think it might be trans related cause I scrolled through my gauge list and everything showed up but the trans temp was blank

Check for a loose connection near the kick panel / parking brake.

What ended up being the problem?

Hopefully this wasn't it, but it sounds like to me the same issues that sometimes plagues my truck is faulty with the 2013 as well. I have ran into the no start issue on my truck probably 10 or more times. I've determined it to be the TIPM lost communication. When that happens no info can pass between the ECM, TIPM, or CCN. If I recall, the last time it happened was when the kids and I were about to head home from the park and the truck wouldn't start (earlier this year or last year, been a while). It took about 10-15 minutes of turning the FOBIK back and forth until it woke up and I was able to start it and head home. There is/was a lawsuit over it covering a lot of Chrysler vehicles up to 2012. Unfortunately it only covered vehicles on the Northeastern states. Just something to possibly consider if it happens again.

The Radio Frequency Control moduel shorted out due to a wire being rubber through on the seat belt bracket on the driver side rear seat. Moduel was not sending any signal to the ignition switch.

Dealership re-routed the wires and taped them up and replaced the moduel and re-programmed my FOBs

Glad to hear that's all it was and not the TIPM.
