What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Arrow Manufacturing, Inc. (Arrow) is recalling certain 2019-2021 Ram 4500 and 5500 cab chassis equipped with LiquidSpring Compressible Liquid Adaptive Suspension Systems (C.L.A.S.S.). The rear brake caliper flexible line may contact a suspension component, causing a brake fluid leak.

The risk

A brake fluid leak may cause partial or complete loss of the rear brakes, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy

Dealers installed a kit to modify the rear brake caliper flexible line mounting, and inspected and replaced worn brake lines as necessary, free of charge. All affected vehicles have been repaired and therefore no owner notification letters will be sent. Owners may contact Arrow Manufacturing customer service at 1-712-261-3157.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.

A 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.
