Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling approximately 302,067 Ram trucks, including 2021-2023 Ram 2500, 3500, and 3500/4500/5500 Cab Chassis models equipped with Cummins 6.7L Turbo Diesel engines. An electrical short can occur within the heater grid relay regardless of whether the ignition is on or off. This short circuit can cause a fire in the engine compartment, which significantly increases the risk of injury or property damage. Dealers will replace the affected relay free of charge.
The electrical short in the relay can lead to an engine compartment fire while the vehicle is being driven or even when it is parked and the ignition is turned off. Because these fires can occur while the vehicle is stationary, owners are strongly advised to park their vehicles outdoors and away from homes or other structures until the recall repair is completed.
