What's recalled

Component: Exterior lighting (turn signal)

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Ram 1500 vehicles. The turn signal self-canceling feature may not function properly.

The risk

Dealers will inspect and replace the steering column control module as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 23, 2024. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is A1B.

Status: NHTSA lists Oct 23, 2024 as the owner-notification date for this campaign.
