(WDNews) – Stellantis, the maker of Jeep and Ram trucks, is recalling nearly 1.5 million Ram pickups due to a software issue that impacts the electronic stability control system. The recall applies to models from 2019 and 2021 through 2024, with the majority of affected vehicles in North America according to AP.
According to a statement released on Saturday, the software for the anti-locking brakes may malfunction and disable the stability control system. While brakes would still function, U.S. safety standards require electronic stability control to operate during all phases of driving.
The company will notify affected truck owners through letters starting on October 3, offering a free software update at dealerships to fix the issue.
