Ram ProMaster City Recalls
Summary
Issue: On certain vehicles, the tire and loading information label does not list that there is no spare tire in both official languages. The label reads as "NONE" when it should read as "NONE / AUCUN". Canadian regulations require the information to be listed on the label in both English and French. Safety Risk: This error does not affect vehicle safety. Corrective Actions: This is not a recall. The company has corrected the tire and loading information label for all new vehicles.
Summary
Issue: On certain vehicles, the turn signal indicator does not flash quickly to indicate when a turn signal bulb is not working. Canadian regulations require a change in the flash rate of the turn signal indicator when a turn signal bulb stops working. Safety Risk: This problem could cause a driver to be unaware that the turn signals are not working. Turn signals that do not work may cause a person not to recognize when a driver intends to turn or change lanes. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Action: FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and instruct you to bring your vehicle to a dealer to update the body control module (BCM) software.
Summary
Issue: On certain vehicles, the passenger seat belt assemblies may contain defective automatic locking retractors (ALR). As a result, the seat belts may not properly lock to secure a child seat. Safety Risk: A seat belt that is used to secure a child restraint but is not properly locked could increase the risk of injury in a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the seat belts. They will be replaced, if necessary.
Summary
Certain vehicles may have been built with a casting defect in the rack and pinion steering gear die-cast housing.

Correction: Dealers will inspect the steering gear housing and replace the rack and pinion assembly as necessary.
Summary
