The recall covers 2021-2022 Ram 3500, 2500 pickup trucks, and Ram 3500, 4500, and 5500 cab chassis vehicles equipped with Cummins 6.7L Turbo Diesel engines. Officials say a remedy for the issue is currently under development.
What to do
Vehicle owners are being advised to park their vehicles outside and away from any structures or vehicles until the electrical short problem can be addressed. This will lower the risk of the vehicles causing more damage if they do catch on fire.
Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on Dec. 3, 2021.
