Our severity reasoning: This involves a safety-critical lighting defect that prevents drivers from signaling turning intentions and increases crash risk.

Plain-English summary
Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) has recalled certain 2019, 2020, and 2021 RAM PROMASTER CITY vehicles due to a defect in the exterior lighting system. If one or both turn signal lights fail, the flashing rate may not change to warn the driver of the failure.
When turn signal lights fail but the flashing rate does not change, drivers may be unaware their signals are not functioning. Without this awareness, drivers cannot communicate their turning intentions to other road users, increasing the risk of a crash. The defect violates Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108 (Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment).
Approximately 23,853 vehicles are affected. Owners should contact Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) customer service at 1-800-853-1403 to schedule the remedy. Authorized dealers will update the Body Controller Module software free of charge. For more information, owners may also contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
