2025–2026 Ram Recall: Which Models Are Affected?

Ram recalls have been unusually frequent lately. In 2026 alone, several recall campaigns involving 2025–2026 Ram trucks have addressed rearview cameras, instrument clusters, trailer control modules, headlights, and seat belts.

Why are relatively new Ram trucks being recalled so often? Which Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 models are actually affected? And if you own a 6.7L Cummins truck, does any of this involve the engine itself? Here is what owners need to know.

Quick Answer: What 2025–2026 Ram Recalls Should Owners Know About?

As of September 10, 2026, these are some of the most relevant recent recalls involving 2025–2026 Ram trucks:

The newest campaign, 83D / 26V560, covers roughly 239,000 2025–2026 Ram 1500 trucks. The much larger 03D campaign covers more than 456,000 Ram and Jeep vehicles in total.

Why Are There So Many 2025–2026 Ram Recalls?

The main reason is that several unrelated software, electronic, and assembly defects were identified during the same period, while 2025–2026 trucks happened to fall into multiple affected production runs.

Some components are shared across several Ram models and more than one model year. The 03D recall is a good example. The affected Trailer Tow Module was used across the Ram 1500, 2500, 3500, 4500, and 5500. When one shared module has a design problem, a single recall can quickly expand across hundreds of thousands of trucks.

Several of the 2026 campaigns also involve vehicle electronics and software. Both 78D and 83D involve rearview-camera display software, while 35D involves software in the 3.5-inch instrument cluster. A software defect installed across a large production run can affect far more vehicles than a problem limited to one mechanical component.

Not every campaign is specific to only 2025–2026 trucks, either. The 67D seat belt recall, for example, extends back to 2019 Ram 1500 models. The 2025 and 2026 trucks are simply part of that larger recall population.

So the recent spike does not point to one recurring defect across every new Ram. Instead, several separate issues were identified close together, and the 2025–2026 model years overlap with several of those affected parts and software versions.

Which 2025–2026 Ram Models Are Affected?

The recall exposure varies significantly by model. Owners can use the table below as a quick starting point before checking their VIN. Drivers looking for model-specific parts and upgrades can also browse Ram truck parts and upgrades.

Being listed here does not mean every truck from that model year is recalled. Each campaign applies to specific production dates, equipment, software versions, or components. Your VIN is the final check.

What Problems Can These Ram Recalls Cause?

The 78D and 83D campaigns can easily look like a failed backup camera, but the reported defect is in the radio software. That is why the official remedy is a software update rather than a camera replacement.

The 03D campaign is different. It involves the Trailer Tow Module itself, so the official repair is replacement of the affected module.

What Is the Latest 83D Ram 1500 Recall?

83D / NHTSA 26V560 is the newest major Ram recall and covers certain 2025–2026 Ram 1500 trucks with a rearview-camera display problem.

FCA reported the recall in early September 2026. About 239,000 trucks are included. On affected vehicles, the truck may already be in Reverse while the center display fails to show the rearview-camera image.

The fix is a radio software update. Eligible trucks can receive the update over the air, or owners can have it completed at an authorized Ram dealer at no charge.

Owners can confirm an open campaign through the NHTSA recall lookup.

What Is the Difference Between the 78D and 83D Camera Recalls?

They are separate recall campaigns covering different vehicle groups, even though the symptoms and remedies are similar.

78D includes certain 2026 Ram 1500 and Ram 2500 trucks along with vehicles from other Stellantis brands. 83D is focused on certain 2025–2026 Ram 1500 trucks.

Both can cause the rearview-camera image to disappear after the truck is shifted into Reverse, and both are addressed through radio software updates. A VIN check is the easiest way to determine which campaign, if any, applies to a specific truck.

Which Recall Matters Most for Ram 2500 and 3500 Owners?

For owners who tow regularly, 03D / 26V059 deserves the most attention.

The affected Trailer Tow Module may cause:

• Trailer brake lights to stop working
• Trailer turn signals to stop working
• Electronic trailer brakes to stop working

That makes the recall especially relevant for Ram 2500 and 3500 owners who regularly pull campers, equipment trailers, livestock trailers, or heavy work trailers.

The official remedy is replacement of the Trailer Tow Module at no charge.

Can You Keep Driving a Ram With an Open Recall?

Most of the recalls discussed here do not carry a broad stop-drive order, but the risk depends on the specific defect.

With 78D or 83D, the truck can still operate, but a missing rearview image means the driver should not rely on the center display while backing up.

With 03D, normal driving may feel completely unaffected, but towing is a different matter. If trailer lights or trailer brakes are not working, the truck should not continue towing until the problem is addressed.

With 35D, the cluster may stop displaying important information such as gear position and warning indicators. The 62D campaign can reduce vehicle visibility if the parking lights or DRLs flicker or fail.

If your VIN shows an open recall, it makes more sense to complete the repair before waiting for the symptom to appear.

How Much Does a Ram Recall Repair Cost?

$0. If your VIN is included in an official safety recall, the specified recall repair is performed at no charge.

Depending on the campaign, that may include:

• 83D / 78D: Radio software update
• 35D: Instrument cluster reprogramming
• 03D: Trailer Tow Module replacement
• 67D: Seat belt buckle anchor inspection and correction
• 62D: Headlamp inspection and replacement when required

How Do You Check Whether Your Ram Has a Recall?

Use the truck's VIN rather than relying on model year alone.

Owners of 2025–2026 Ram trucks may want to check for campaign numbers 03D, 35D, 62D, 67D, 78D, and 83D.

You can also use the official Mopar recall lookup to check a specific VIN.

If a campaign still shows as open, the truck has not yet been recorded as completing that recall repair.

Do These Recalls Affect 6.7L Cummins Trucks?

Some Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks equipped with the 6.7L Cummins are included, but the major recalls above are not recalls of the Cummins engine itself.

For example, 03D involves the Trailer Tow Module, 35D involves the instrument cluster, and 78D affects the rearview-camera display software on certain 2026 Ram 2500 trucks.

That distinction matters for diesel owners. A DEF warning, DPF regeneration problem, EGR fault, or Check Engine Light should still be diagnosed separately rather than assumed to be part of a Ram recall.

Owners looking for platform-specific maintenance and upgrade options can browse 6.7L Cummins parts and upgrades.

What Should You Do If Your Ram Has an Open Recall?

1. Confirm the Ram recall number and NHTSA campaign number.
2. Check whether the official remedy is available for your VIN.
3. Contact an authorized Ram dealer and schedule the repair.
4. Avoid using the vehicle in a way directly affected by the defect until the repair is completed.

Owners dealing with 03D should be especially cautious about towing until the Trailer Tow Module issue has been addressed.

Conclusion

The 2025–2026 Ram lineup has seen a concentrated run of recalls, but these campaigns do not point to one common defect across every truck.

The major issues involve radio software, instrument-cluster software, the Trailer Tow Module, headlamp assemblies, and seat belt anchors. Some recalls are limited to Ram 1500 trucks, while others also include Ram 2500, 3500, 4500, and 5500 models.

Ram 1500 owners should pay particular attention to the recent 78D and 83D rearview-camera campaigns. Ram 2500 and 3500 owners who tow regularly should make 03D a priority.

And for 6.7L Cummins owners, these recalls should not be confused with a Cummins engine recall. The best next step is simple: check the VIN and confirm whether the truck still has an open campaign.
