5 common questions answered
NHTSA describes five recall areas for the 2012 Ram 2500. A diesel fuel-heater connector may overheat, allowing a fuel leak and raising fire risk. A left tie rod may break and cause loss of steering control, increasing crash risk. Certain Mopar canvas seat covers may interfere with seat thorax air-bag deployment. A sticking brake transmission shift interlock pin may permit shifting without the brake or key, creating a rollaway risk. A steering-wheel harness may rub against the driver air-bag retainer spring and trigger unexpected deployment. Waiting leaves these potential safety concerns unresolved, so arrange a VIN check promptly.
