Summary

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling approximately 26,961 model year 2019-2020 Ram 4500 and 5500 Cab Chassis vehicles. The rear brake hoses on these trucks were manufactured with an internal diameter that is too small, which can cause the hose to rupture under pressure. If the hose fails, the vehicle will suffer a loss of braking power, significantly increasing the risk of a crash. Chrysler dealers will replace these hoses with correctly sized components for free.

Risk

A ruptured brake hose can lead to a sudden loss of hydraulic braking ability, which increases the distance required to stop the vehicle and may result in a collision.
