Stellantis Recalls More Than 129K Ram 1500 Trucks

Chrysler parent Stellantis NV (NYSE:STLA) is recalling 129,313 Ram 1500 vehicles in the U.S., auto safety regulator National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Friday.

What Happened: The recall includes the model year 2023-2024 Ram 1500 vehicles in which the turn signal self-canceling feature may not function properly.

Improper turn signals may increase the risk of a crash, the regulator said.

As for a solution, dealers will inspect and replace the steering column control module as required, at no cost to the customer.

Why It Matters: The company was first made aware of a potential issue related to the malfunctioning steering column control module in February. Since then, the company reviewed the issue and determined to conduct a recall of the affected vehicles.

Stellantis issued a recall covering nearly 1.23 million Ram 1500 trucks from the 2019 and 2021-2024 model years in the U.S. in early September.
