Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV is calling back 182,200 fullsize pickup trucks to fix a loose electrical connection that could make the power steering cut out intermittently.
The campaign involves 2019-model Ram 1500 pickups. Nearly 90% of the affected trucks are in the U.S., and most are still in dealer inventories, according to FCA.
The company reports no injuries or accidents associated with the issue. Dealers will fix the problem by tightening the truck battery’s ground-circuit fastener.RELATED CONTENT
