2025 RAM 3500 Complaints

Recall 26V-059 Brake lights and brakes don’t work sometimes. Dealer has no parts. Will not tell me when parts are coming. This is a serious issue and I need it fixed. It should not take this long.

While driving with a trailer after leaving a jobsite in [XXX] , the vehicle experienced a sudden electrical failure while in motion. The instrument cluster/speedometer screen went completely black and the vehicle lights stopped functioning properly while driving at night. During the incident, we lost the speedometer display and visibility from the vehicle lighting system, creating a serious safety hazard while towing a trailer on public roads. Because of the electrical failure, we were forced to pull off on the side of the road to avoid a potentially dangerous situation. After shutting the truck down and waiting approximately one hour, the vehicle was restarted and the systems eventually began functioning again. This vehicle is used regularly for commercial towing and jobsite operations. A sudden loss of instrument display, lighting systems, and electrical functionality while towing creates a major safety concern for both the occupants of the vehicle and surrounding traffic. The failure appeared intermittent because the vehicle resumed operation after sitting for a period of time. However, the incident involved complete loss of critical vehicle display and lighting systems while driving. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request.

The contact owns a 2025 Ram 3500. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V826000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); and the vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the instrument panel software update was completed; however, the instrument panel became inoperable after the update was completed. The dealer determined that the instrument panel needed to be replaced; however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The dealer informed the contact that the estimated time for availability was May 11, 2026. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was unavailable.

The contact owns a 2025 Ram 3500. The contact received a recall notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 26V059000 (Exterior Lighting, Electrical System); however, when the local dealer was contacted, the contact was informed that the manufacturer was shipping a very limited number of parts to dealers for the repair. The manufacturer was contacted, and the contact was informed that the dealer should request an expedited shipment. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact had not experienced a failure.

I received notification of a safety recall on my 2025 Ram 3500 (NHTSA Recall Number26V-059) which affects the trailer lights and braking system. I contacted my dealership to schedule the repair and was told that it would be about 6+ months before they could get to me. The dealership has 30+ trucks on their lot, and the manufacturer is only allowing them to order 1 replacement part per week, so they aren't fixing sold trucks until those 30+ unsold trucks are fixed, which will take 30+ weeks. I'm submitting this online complaint because I tow a large trailer regularly and I don't feel that 6+ months is an appropriate time period for fixing a recall and I don't think that fixing unsold trucks should take priority over fixing trucks that are actively being driven every day.
