ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
- The defect
- Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2025-2026 Ram 1500 Pickup, Ram 2500 Pickup, Ram 3500 Pickup, Ram 3500 Cab Chassis, 4500 Ram Cab Chassis, and Ram 5500 Cab Chassis vehicles. A software error may cause the instrument panel cluster display to be blank. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems," 105, "Hydraulic and Electric Brake Systems," and 102, "Transmission shift lever sequence, starter interlock, and transmission braking effect."
- What it can cause
- An instrument panel display that does not show critical information, such as warning lights or gear selection, increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and update the instrument panel software or replace the instrument panel cluster, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 18, 2025. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 800-853-1403. Chrysler's numbers for this recall are B4C and B8C. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning December 4, 2025.
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 72,509 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 91% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2025 to 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 17 times before this, most recently in October 2025 as 25V665000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 6 of the 10 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 555 complaints with NHTSA, 138 of them before this campaign was filed. 295 of those name the electrical system, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in June 2024, 1 year before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 14 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V560000 (back over prevention), 26V531000 (back over prevention), 26V495000 (seat belts), 26V421000 (exterior lighting).
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 December 1, 2025 as campaign 25V826000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
