I would be more concerned with the detected turbo lag. You need to take that truck and drive it at speed, say 40-50 MPH or more, and let off the throttle and then floor it as if passing someone on a two lane. I think you will be counting the seconds like I do until you get a throttle response. The slight turbo lag at lower speeds is what I detected but not the more important problem of a dead pedal. If it has the dead pedal, run...run like hell out of the dealership. They can't fix it and apparently Ram cannot either. If it does not have the issue, it might be one of the good ones. It seems some have it and some don't. Mine is a Sept. 2013 build and has the problem. You might want to look at the build date.
