Stellantis recalls 1.5M Ram trucks to fix software bug that can disable stability control
- Thread starter Morenar
- Start date
Experience will vary based on the dealer it's a software update. If you are worried about the safety aspect if it, just get it done. If you aren't worried, there really is no rush. And you don't even have to get it done if you don't want to

not worried about the safety part, worried the update will produce another issue.

Why can’t they do an over the air software update?

I have provided you with the documents that state otherwise. I would hate for you to waste your time. If the dealer does it they will not get paid for the repair/flash.

I have a 2020 with adaptive cruise. I haven’t been able to get the Mopar site to work but they NHTSA doesn’t show any open recalls.
If you have followed along with any post, or news article about this recall, you would know it doesn't apply to the 2020 model year.

I'm just joking. I'm in IT and usually we wait for the first versions of software releases to have all the "kinks" worked out before we to install anything. I am sure Stellantis did there due diligence.

Would you unmarry and remove tazer before taking in for this recall?
I'm headed in to a dealer tomorrow afternoon for an ABS/ESC/Cruise control/no 4wd issue that I hope is just this.
~26k miles on it, showed up September 4th as I was headed out of town for an elk hunt. Kind of effed up my week, not having 4wd. I'm hoping it's fixed before the next hunt in 2 weeks.

Took my truck in yesterday for the last 3 recalls (eTorque, tailgate, and ESC). They told me they did not have the update for the ESC yet so they were only able to do the other two. Just for an update to everyone.
