2022 RAM Pickup Trucks Recalled for Rearview Camera Display Failure

Certain 2022 RAM 1500, 2500, and 3500 pickup trucks may have defective radio software that prevents the rearview camera image from displaying, reducing rear visibility and increasing crash risk.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The source does not report any injuries, deaths, or confirmed incidents. The recall addresses a software defect affecting rear visibility compliance, which creates a theoretical risk of crash but no actual harm has been documented.

Plain-English summary

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2022 RAM 1500, 2500 pickup trucks, and 3500 Cab Chassis vehicles with a GVWR less than 10,000 lbs. The recall affects approximately 117,413 vehicles.

The radio software in these vehicles may prevent the rearview camera image from displaying. This failure violates Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, which requires proper rear visibility, and reduces the driver's ability to see behind the vehicle.

A non-functioning rearview camera display increases the risk of a crash when backing up, since drivers rely on this image to safely reverse their vehicles.

Owners should contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403 to arrange a free reprogram of the radio software. Owner notification letters were mailed on July 5, 2022. For additional information, contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
