Stellantis, the parent company of Dodge and Ram, has recalled 211,851 vehicles because their antilock braking systems (ABS) can turn off their stability control (ESC) systems.
Recalled models include the:
- 2022 Dodge Durango
- 2022 Ram 2500
- 2022 Ram 3500 with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of under 10,000 pounds
The company tells federal safety officials at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that a malfunction in the ABS can cause the ESC to shut down. Without stability control active, a vehicle may behave abnormally during any loss of traction, which could contribute to an accident.
Dealers will fix the problem with a software update. By law, recall repairs are always free.
Many cars are recalled, often more than once, during their lifespan. Automakers try to contact every owner but don’t always reach them all. Find out whether your vehicle has any outstanding recalls with the easy VIN tool at our recall center.
