REC-005357

active

2014–2017 RAM 1500, 2500 and 3500 Trucks

Category: Heavy Vehicle · Supplier: AMERICAN SPECIAL VEHICLES PTY LTD

Recall date: 1 August 2017

Defect

The Occupant Restraint Control (ORC) module on a number of vehicles may activate a diagnostic trouble code (DTC). This is due to external stimulus which disables the ORC ability to sense vehicle rollover events.

Hazard

In the event the ORC module is disabled for a rollover situation, the loss of air bag deployment capability during a crash may increase the risk of injury or death.

Remedy

Owners should contact their authorised RAM Truck dealer who will inspect and reprogram the ORC module with new software. For further information phone 1300 681 792 or visit https://www.ramtrucks.com.au/
