Chrysler recalls 2025–2026 Ram 1500, 2500, 3500, 4500 and 5500 vehicles over blank instrument panel display

A software error may cause the instrument panel cluster display to be blank, so it does not show critical information such as warning lights or gear selection, which increases the risk of a crash.

What to do

Dealers will inspect and update the instrument panel software or replace the instrument panel cluster, as necessary, free of charge. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 800-853-1403.
