New Safety Recall Advanced Communication – 43B
FCA US LLC (FCA US) has announced a safety recall on certain 2021 Model Year (VF) Ram ProMaster vehicles.
REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL
Some vehicles may have a loose ground securement for the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) module, which may result in the loss of communication with the ABS module which can lead to a loss of Electronic Stability Control (ESC). A vehicle with a non-functioning ESC system may increase the risk of a crash in certain driving condition.
The condition described above does not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 126 S5.1.2 requires that Electronic Stability Control (“ESC”) “is operational during all phases of driving including acceleration, coasting, and deceleration (including braking) ….” Vehicles with a loose ground securement may not have ESC operational during all phases of driving.
SERVICE ACTION
All vehicles in this recall have been remedied by securing the loose ground. Dealers will be notified of the launch of this safety recall by way of established communication methods.
Chronology :
- On January 23, 2023 FCA US LLC (“FCA US”) Technical Safety and Regulatory Compliance (“TSRC”) organization was notified of a potential issue related to an inoperative ABS module in some 2021 MY Ram
ProMaster vehicles.
- From January 2023, though July 2023 FCA US TSRC reviewed warranty data, field records and customer assistance records to understand potential customer consequences.
- From July 2023, through March 2024, FCA US TSRC met with FCA US engineering and manufacturing to review the issue, understand the failure mode, and to determine the suspect population.
