ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
- The defect
- Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2026 Ram 3500, 3500 Cab Chassis, 2500, 4500 Cab Chassis, and 5500 Cab Chassis vehicles. The instrument panel may display an incorrect brake system warning light. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 101, "Control and Displays."
- What it can cause
- An incorrect warning light can fail to alert the driver to critical safety information, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the instrument panel cluster, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 9, 2025. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is 79C.
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 2,885 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 69% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2026, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2025, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Ram vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 15 times before this, most recently in September 2024 as 24V715000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 2 of the 4 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 48 complaints with NHTSA. 27 of those name the electrical system, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 6 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V531000 (back over prevention), 26V288000 (power train), 26V244000 (electronic stability control (esc)), 26V225000 (electrical system).
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 August 18, 2025 as campaign 25V530000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
