517 recalls across 26 models
Ram has 26 models with recall activity in our database, spanning 2002 through 2026. Across those models, 513 recall campaigns are recorded, and the severity distribution skews heavily toward the upper tiers under the severity rating system. Critical recalls account for 48% of the total, with High adding another 23%, meaning roughly seven in ten campaigns fall into one of those two tiers. Critical and High designations cover consequences such as loss of vehicle control, crash risk, and fire hazard. Medium recalls make up 25% of the total, Low accounts for the remaining 5%, and there are no Informational campaigns in the database for this lineup.
The 1500 carries the highest recall count at 138 campaigns, making it the most-recalled model in the lineup by a notable margin. The 3500 and 2500 follow at 86 recalls each, reflecting the heavy-duty segment's significant share of the brand's overall recall activity. Together, those three truck lines account for more than 300 of the 513 total campaigns. A recent Critical recall from 2023 affects the 2500, where a condition exists in which a loss of control could increase the risk of a crash. That campaign illustrates the pattern seen across the lineup, where the majority of recall activity centers on consequences with direct implications for vehicle control and occupant safety.
