Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Note: Owners are advised to stop using cruise control until the software update has been performed.

Recall Date: Dec 20, 2017
Safety Issue:

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Ram 3500 Cab Chassis with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of less than 10,000 lbs, 2011-2017 Ram 3500, 4500 and 5500 Cab Chassis vehicles, 2009-2017 Ram 1500 and 2010-2017 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickup trucks, all equipped with a column shifter.

With the pin in the open position, the transmission can be shifted out of PARK into any gear without pushing the brake pedal or having the key in the ignition.

Potential Risk:
Being able to shift the transmission without pushing the brake pedal and/or without a key in the ignition can increase the risk of an unintended vehicle rollaway that may result in personal injury or a crash.

Potential Consequences:

I HAD THE AEM (APPROVED EMISSIONS MODIFICATION) DONE ON MY 2016 RAM 1500 3.0 ECODIESEL ON 07/02/2019. WHEN I PICKED UP THE TRUCK I ASKED IF THERE WERE ANY ISSUES WITH ANYONE THAT HAS HAD THIS PERFORMED. I WAS TOLD BY THE TECH HE HAS NOT AWARE OF ANY ISSUES WITH THIS BEING DONE AND THE ONLY THING HE HAS HEARD IS AN IMPROVEMENT OF MPG. WELL I HAVE HAD THE TRUCK FOR 2 DAYS NOW AND I'VE NOTICED A DECREASE OF ALMOST 2 MPG WHICH I KIND OF EXPECTED UNLIKE HIS CLAIM OF IMPROVED MPG. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT NOW WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP IT TAKES ALMOST 7 SECONDS FOR THROTTLE RESPONSE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE IN MY OPINION! I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THIS TRUCK FOR ALMOST 3 YEARS NOW AND HAVE NEVER HAD SINGLE PROBLEM. I UNDERSTAND THE WHOLE TURBO DIESEL HAS A LITTLE BIT OF LAG TIME FOR THE TURBO TO SPOOL UP BUT NOW IT TAKES ALMOST 7 SECONDS TO GET RESPONSE OF THROTTLE!! I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT 3 TIMES NOW WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP. THIS IN MY OPINION IS UNACCEPTABLE!!! LIKE I SAID BEFORE I UNDERSTAND THERE IS LAG IN A TURBO DIESEL BUT 7 SECONDS! WHEN YOU PUSH THE ACCELERATOR AND THE VEHICLE DOESNT RESPOND THAT IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN TO ME. I WISH I HAD NEVER HAD THIS PERFORMED NOW BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN THOROUGHLY IMPRESSED WITH THIS VEHICLE IN EVERY ASPECT UNTIL NOW. I FEEL THAT OWNERS SHOULD BE AT LEAST GIVEN SOME TYPE OF HEADS UP TO THIS SITUATION BECAUSE BEFORE LONG THIS IS GOING TO START CAUSING PEOPLE TO WRECK. WHEN YOU DRIVE A VEHICLE YOU GET USED TO THE WAY IT DRIVES. THIS HAS COMPLETELY CHANGED HOW THIS TRUCK RESPONDS AND NOT IN A GOOD WAY. ITS LIKE A WHOLE DIFFERENT VEHICLE NOW.

Defect Description:

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

FCA ECODIESEL EMISSIONS RECALL - AEM SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS PERFORMED ON MY 2016 RAM ECODIESEL (JUNE 3, 2019) BY SERVICING DEALER. SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO IMPACT VEHICLE PERFORMANCE, DRIVABILITY, FUEL ECONOMY, ETC. THIS IS NOT THE CASE AS ALL INDICATED CHARACTERISTICS HAVE BEEN NEGATIVELY AFFECTED BY THIS UPDATE. MOST CONCERNING IS THE AEM RECALL SOFTWARE UPDATE HAS INDUCED A SIGNIFICANT THROTTLE RESPONSE DELAY WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP OR AT LOW SPEEDS UNTIL THE ENGINE REACHES FULL OPERATING TEMPERATURE. IN SOME INSTANCES THROTTLE RESPONSE DELAY IS AS LONG AS 3 OR 4 SECONDS BEFORE THE ENGINE WILL RESPOND AND ACCELERATE. THIS CREATES AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CONDITION WHEN TRYING TO TURN ONTO A BUSY ROAD OR ACCELERATE IN NORMAL OR HEAVY TRAFFIC CONDITIONS. I DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE TURNING ONTO A BUSY ROAD UNTIL THE ENGINE IS AT FULL TEMPERATURE FOR FEAR OF CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. ONCE THE ENGINE DROPS BELOW A CERTAIN TEMPERATURE THE ACCELERATION DELAY COMES BACK. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED WITH FCA CHRYSLER ASAP BEFORE PEOPLE GET HURT OR KILLED.
