Ram 2500
Model Overview
If you walk into a Ram dealer and ask about the brand's heavy-duty pickups, the Ram 2500 is the first model you'll look at. This is a big, imposing truck that takes Ram's aggressive styling to a new level compared to the smaller (but hardly small) 1500. Even in this entry-level heavy-duty grade, the Ram 2500 boasts competitive payload and tow ratings along with the option of big diesel power from Cummins.

Certain vehicles equipped with a rearview mirror backup camera display may fail to conform to the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 111 – Mirrors and Rear Visibility Systems. Some conditions may cause the system not to display a rearview image, which is contrary to the requirements of the standard. This could increase the risk of property damage or injury to nearby pedestrians in the event the driver does not check surroundings through traditional means. Correction: Dealers will replace the rearview mirror.

On certain vehicles, an electronic fault may create a situation where the cruise control cannot be deactivated. If this occurs and the driver does not apply the brakes or shift the transmission to neutral, the vehicle could maintain speed or accelerate without warning, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) software and perform an update as necessary. Note: In the interim, owners are advised not to use the cruise control until the vehicle is repaired.

FCA Canada has determined that some Mopar gooseneck trailer hitch ball kits may not fully seat and lock into the truck hardware as intended. This can be caused by dirt and/or debris accumulation on top of the gooseneck ball mount, in the mounting hole and/or tolerance stack-up. If this occurs, the gooseneck ball may appear to be locked in place when it is not. If the gooseneck ball is not locked in place, under certain driving conditions it may detach from the truck.
Affected parts are the Mopar 2 5/16‘’ Gooseneck Ball Kit part number 82213631 and Mopar 3” Gooseneck Ball Kit part number 82213632.
Correction: FCA Canada will conduct a voluntary field action on all affected parts. The remedy for this condition is
currently under development.
Note: This field action is not being conducted under the requirements of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act.

On certain vehicles equipped with a steering column gear shifter, the brake transmission shift interlock (BTSI) may become inoperative. This could allow the steering column gear shifter lever to be shifted out of the PARK (P) position without depressing the service brake pedal or having the key in the ignition, which could result in unintended vehicle movement, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.

On certain vehicles equipped with a 220 amp alternator, frequent load cycling at the rated amperage capacity and particularly in hot ambient conditions could cause the alternator to develop a short, increasing the risk of an engine compartment fire. If a short develops in the alternator while the vehicle is being driven, it could also result in the engine stalling, causing a loss of motive power and increasing the risk of a crash. Both situations could increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the alternator.

On certain vehicles, the front suspension track bar frame bracket may have been improperly welded during the manufacturing process. As a result, bracket welds may break and allow the bracket to separate from the frame rail. A separated front suspension track bar frame bracket will cause diminished steering response, which could affect vehicle handling and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the front suspension track bar frame bracket. For vehicles found without a separated front suspension track bar frame bracket and/or cracked weld(s), additional support brackets will be installed. For vehicles found with a separated front suspension track bar frame bracket and/or cracked weld(s), a new front suspension track bar frame bracket will be welded to the frame.
