What are the defects?

On some MY2019 RAM 1500 and 2500 vehicles the master cylinder pushrod clip is not secured correctly.

What are the hazards?

The master cylinder pushrod which is connected to the brake pedal pin may dislodge and become difficult to operate or fail, resulting in the brake pedal becoming inoperable. This may pose a accident risk, potentially seriously injuring vehicle occupants or other road users.

Owners of affected RAM vehicles will receive a letter advising them to contact their local authorised RAM dealer to make an appointment to have repair work carried out free of charge.
