(DP) | Ram 4500/5500 Cab Chassis |
NOTE: This recall applies only to the above vehicles equipped with a 6.7L Cummins engine (sales code ETN).
NOTE: Some vehicles above may have been identified as not involved in this recall and therefore have been excluded from this recall.
IMPORTANT: Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer new vehicle inventory. Federal law requires you to complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery. Dealers should also consider this requirement to apply to used vehicle inventory and should perform this recall on vehicles in for service. Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process.
Subject
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) on about 34,000 of the above vehicles may have engine calibration software that does not provide adequate engine warm up protection. Inadequate warmup protection can cause a lack of oil film on the rod bearings while the engine is reaching operating temperature, resulting in engine damage and potential connecting rod failure, which may puncture the engine block, and result in oil contacting a competent ignition source and a vehicle fire may occur. A vehicle fire may increase the risk of injury to occupants and persons outside of the vehicle, as well as property damage.
Repair
Reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) follow section A. Inspection Procedure below before reprogramming the PCM.
NOTE: You may be presented with two calibration choices when Fuel Pump, requiring the PCM to b e reprogrammed again with the reprogramming the PCM. Please follow the inspection steps closely to avoid choosing the incorrect calibration. Choosing the incorrect calibration will result in an undesirable noise from the High Pressure correct calibration.
Parts Information
No parts are required to perform this service procedure.
Parts Return
No parts return required for this campaign.
Special Tools
The following special tools are required to perform this repair:
|
wiTECH MicroPod II |

Inspection Procedure
A. Inspection Procedure
The fuel injection pump must be inspected to determine which design pump is installed on the vehicle. Older design pumps have an exception of specific identification ma rks machined into the body of the Asymmetrical design internal cam. The newer design pumps have a Symmetrical design internal cam. The design of the pump will determine which calibration will need to be programmed into the PCM. From outward appearance both pumps look identical, with the pump.
- Inspect the fuel injection pump to see which pump the vehicle has.
- Vehicles with the new style Symmetrical pump will have one large single dot embossed in the pump housing (Figure 1).
- For vehicles equipped with a Symmetrical pump, choose the calibration labeled Symmetric, or Sym Pump (Figure 1).
- Vehicles with the old style Asymmetrical pump will have multiple dots embossed in the pump housing (Figure 2).

IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL
Powertrain Control Module Software
Dear [Name],
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.
FCA US has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain [2019 – 2020 Model Year (DD) Ram 3500 Cab Chassis, and (DP) 4500/5500 Ram Cab Chassis] vehicles.
It is extremely important to take steps now to repair your vehicle to ensure the safety of you and your passengers.
WHY DOES MY VEHICLE NEED REPAIRS?
The Powertrain Control Module in your vehicle [1] may have engine calibration software that does not provide adequate engine warm up protection. Inadequate warmup protection can cause a lack of oil film on the main rod bearings while the engine is reaching operating temperature, resulting in engine damage and potential connecting rod failure, which may puncture the engine block, and result in oil contacting a competent ignition source and a vehicle fire may occur. A vehicle fire may increase the risk of injury to occupants and persons outside of the vehicle, as well as property damage.
HOW DO I RESOLVE THIS IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE?
FCA US will repair your vehicle [2] free of charge (parts and labor). To do this, your dealer will inspect and if required reprogram the Powertrain Control Module to include enhanced engine warm up protection. The estimated repair time is about a half hour. In addition, your dealer will require your vehicle for proper check-in, preparation, and check-out during your visit, which may require more time. Your time is important to us, so we recommend that you schedule a service appointment to minimize your inconvenience. Please bring this letter with you to your dealership.
Please reference your owner manual to ensure choosing the correct oil type for your use. In ambient temperatures above 0°F (-18°C), we recommend using 10W-30 engine oil that meets the API CK-4 engine oil category. In ambient temperatures below 0°F (-18°C), we recommend using 5W-40 synthetic engine oil that meets the API CK-4 engine oil category.
TO SCHEDULE YOUR FREE REPAIR,
CALL YOUR CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP OR RAM DEALER TODAY
