CBSN
Stellantis is recalling 33,777 Ram 1500 pickup trucks to replace a damaged front wheel bearing hub encoder ring, an essential component in the vehicle's steering system. The damaged part is the result of poor handling prior to assembly of the vehicle, and not a pre-existing defect, according to a notice posted Wednesday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
"Some 2025 MY Ram 1500 vehicles may have been built with damaged front wheel bearing encoder rings causing a loss of wheel speed signal (WSS) which may disable electronic stability control (ESC)" system, said Fiat Chrysler (now part of Stellantis) in documents posted by the NHTSA.
"Failure of the ESC system when intervention is expected and/or relied upon can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning," the car manufacturer said.
