Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

PE26002OpenPreliminary Evaluation

Loss of Power Steering Assist

Opened Mar 2, 2026

The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 19 Vehicle Owner Questionnaires (VOQs) alleging an intermittent or complete failure of the power steering assist system in certain Model Year (MY) 2022-2023 RAM ProMaster 1500, 2500, and 3500 vehicles. Failure of the power steering assist system can result in increased steering effort required to control the vehicle. An increase in steering effort can potentially lead to a loss of directional control of the vehicle. Several received reports allege failures of the steering rack with specific reports citing water intrusion into the electrical connectors of the electric power steering control module. ODI is opening this Preliminary Evaluation (PE) to assess the scope and root cause of potential defects in 2022-2023 RAM ProMaster steering systems. To review the ODI reports cited in the Opening Resume ODI Report Identification Number document, go to NHTSA.gov.

Intermitent loss of electronic power steering. Dealer Service Tech says it is water intrusion into the steering rack. Part needs replacement. Dash warning at time of failure only once. I have heard from other owners this is a common problem.

Driver assistance
Filed Aug 11, 2025

Followup of Case # 11612576 filed 10/04/24. The issue of our UConnect system faulting out has never been resolved after much troubleshooting by the dealership. The system continues to fault out which disables the Automatic Emergency Braking system and the Emergency SOS systems also. This system faults out continually while driving. The safety features are disabled more than enabled according to the indicator lights on the display. My concern is that it disables the safety feature but question if it can also activate the braking when it shouldn't which could cause very erratic and unsafe event.
