Summary

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling approximately 52,565 model year 2025 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups, along with 3500, 4500, and 5500 Cab Chassis trucks. A software error in the occupant restraint controller may prevent the driver's side airbag or seat belt pretensioner from deploying during a crash and could also disable the electronic stability control system. Dealers will provide a free software update to fix the issue.

Risk

A disabled electronic stability control system increases the risk of losing control of the vehicle and crashing. Furthermore, if the driver's side airbag or seat belt pretensioner fails to deploy during a collision, the driver faces a significantly higher risk of serious injury or death.
