Ram Alert
Just saw a news headline that 1.7M rams are being recalled for welds on the air bag suspension.
Forum Discussion
1.1 million pickups sold in North America that may have steering-wheel wiring harnesses that wear because of contact with a spring and could inadvertently set off the truck's airbag. The wear could cause a short-circuit that may lead to inadvertent driver-side air-bag deployment.
The wiring harness issues affect model-year 2012-2014 Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 pickups and 3500, 4500 and 5500 Chassis Cabs. The company said it is aware of two injuries, but no accidents.
Fiat Chrysler also said it will recall about 190,337 Ram heavy-duty trucks in North America to inspect and repair bracket welds that could affect steering. Some of the welds for the steering components could separate. That recall affects certain 2013 Ram 3500 pickups, 2014 Ram 2500/3500 pickups and 3500 Chassis Cabs.
The company is aware of one accident involving the bracket weld problem. There were no injuries.
The third recall involves 188,000 model-year 2014 and 2015 Ram 1500 Quad Cab pickups to make the side-curtain air-bags compliant with a federal regulation to reduce the risk of a rear occupant being ejected during a rollover.
These 3 NEW recalls are in addition to the 23 other recalls, the fine and the 'buy back' program.
Yes recall occur and should BUT come on.....
RECALLS......the marketing tool of the 21st Century.
