What This Recall Means

Component

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:SOFTWARE

What Happened
The Trailer Tow Lighting Control Module is like an electronic brain that helps control your trailer lights. In some 2014-2016 RAM ProMaster and ProMaster City vehicles, this module might have a software glitch that prevents your trailer brake lights from working when you press the brake pedal.
Risk if Unfixed
If your trailer brake lights don't work, it could lead to a collision with another vehicle or trailer behind you, especially on the road at night or in low-light conditions.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your dealer will replace the faulty Trailer Tow Light Control Module with a new one, and this repair is completely free. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice.
