2024 RAM 1500 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2024 RAM 1500 has 4 recalls, with the most serious concerns centered on safety systems that can fail in a crash: the driver's airbag may not deploy, and the electronic stability control can disable itself without warning. Two recalls address the driver's airbag. In one, the airbag may not be properly connected and can fail to deploy in a crash. In the other, a fault in the clockspring, the rotating connector behind the steering wheel that links the airbag to the vehicle's wiring, can also prevent deployment. Both leave the driver without airbag protection when it is needed most. A separate software malfunction in the anti-lock brake control module can shut down electronic stability control, which helps the vehicle maintain directional control on slippery or uneven surfaces. There is also a turn signal issue where the self-canceling feature may not turn the signal off after a lane change or turn, leaving other drivers uncertain about the vehicle's intended direction.
