Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Note: Owners are advised to stop using cruise control until the software update has been performed.

Recall Date: Dec 20, 2017
Safety Issue:

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Ram 3500 Cab Chassis with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of less than 10,000 lbs, 2011-2017 Ram 3500, 4500 and 5500 Cab Chassis vehicles, 2009-2017 Ram 1500 and 2010-2017 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickup trucks, all equipped with a column shifter.

Potential Risk:
Being able to shift the transmission without pushing the brake pedal and/or without a key in the ignition can increase the risk of an unintended vehicle rollaway that may result in personal injury or a crash.

IM GOING TO TRY TO GET TO THE DEALER FLOOR A WARRANTY INSPECTION WHEN I CAN HOWEVER MY WORK SCHEDULE IS NOT THE BEST. MY TRAVEL HAS BEEN PRIMARILY HIGHWAY FOR ABOUT 85% OF MY 42K MILES. I HAVE ROUTINE OIL CHANGES USING PRODUCTS MEETING CHRYSLER SPECIFICATIONS AND DON'T TYPICALLY HAUL ANYTHING AND NEVER TOW. THE SOUND SO FAR IS NOTABLE ONLY WHEN IDLING. STILL RUNS FINE OTHERWISE BUT THE GROWING SYMPTOMS MATCH WHAT I'VE BEEN READING ABOUT. *TR
