ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
- The defect
- Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2021 Ram Promaster vehicles. An insecure ground connection may cause the electronic stability control (ESC) to be inoperative. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 126, "Electronic Stability Control Systems."
- What it can cause
- Driving with an inoperative electronic stability control system can increase the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will tighten the ground nut assembly, free of charge. All affected vehicles have been remedied. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall is 43B.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 2 vehicles this is a small campaign: 98% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2021, so the oldest vehicles on it were 3 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Ram vehicles have been recalled over the electronic stability control (esc) 2 times before this, most recently in February 2016 as 16V076000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 108 complaints with NHTSA, 46 of them before this campaign was filed. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in April 2021, 3 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 7 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V876000 (equipment adaptive/mobility), 25V720000 (engine and engine cooling), 25V552000 (back over prevention), 24V416000 (structure).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) with NHTSA on April 25, 2024 as campaign 24V290000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
