The problem

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain model year 2015 RAM 2500 trucks, and RAM 3500 trucks and cab chassis. The affected vehicles may have inadequate welds securing the front track bar frame brackets, possibly resulting in the bracket components separating from the frame.

The risk

If the bracket components separate from the frame, the vehicle may have a reduced response to steering input, increasing the risk of a crash.
