When owners complained
A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing
out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single
owner can see from inside their own car.

Recalls on the 2024 RAM Promaster
A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which
the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous
enough to fix for free — however old the car is.
Canada — Transport Canada
Canada runs its own recall programme, and its campaigns do not
always mirror the American ones.
Recall 202557827,010 units in Canada
Engine
Issue: On certain vehicles, the wiring for the 400 W radiator cooling fan module may not have proper circuit protection. Additionally, the bearing for the fan could fail. If this happens, the wiring could overheat and melt before the fuse blows. Safety Risk: Wiring that overheats and melts could create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the cooling fan module and fuse. The dealer will also install a label on the power distribution center and add an insert to the owner's manual.
Recall 202553016 units in Canada
Powertrain
Issue: On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the differential housing to become damaged and fail. If this happens, there could be a sudden loss of power to the wheels. Note: This recall only affects certain RAM ProMaster battery electric vehicles. Safety Risk: A sudden loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the electric drive module. The dealer will also update the software for the motor control processor, battery processor control module, integrated dual charge module and electric vehicle control unit.
Recall 202527317,910 units in Canada
Visual System
Issue: On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the rearview camera image not to display when the transmission is shifted into reverse. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the vehicle is reversing. Safety Risk: A rearview camera image that doesn't display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the security gateway module software.
Recall 20245621 units in Canada
High Voltage
Issue: On one vehicle, under certain conditions, a software problem could cause a loss of power to the wheels. Note: This recall only affects certain RAM ProMaster battery electric vehicles. Safety Risk: A sudden loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify the owner by mail and advise them to take their vehicle to a dealership to update the motor control processor (MCPA) software.
Recall 2024548314,717 units in Canada
Label
Issue: On certain vehicles, the tire and loading information label does not list that there is no spare tire in both official languages. The label reads as "NONE" when it should read as "NONE / AUCUN". Canadian regulations require the information to be listed on the label in both English and French. Safety Risk: This error does not affect vehicle safety. Corrective Actions: This is not a recall. The company has corrected the tire and loading information label for all new vehicles.
Recall 202432724 units in Canada
Structure
Issue: On certain vehicles, the passenger-side sliding door may be missing a support beam. In a crash, this could reduce the door's strength. Additionally, the tire and loading information label may not list the correct seating capacity. Safety Risk: A door structure that isn't strong enough could increase the risk of injuries in a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to install the missing door beam and replace the tire and loading information label.

I need to file a complaint because there is no fix available for this and the recall has been in place for almost 9 months - i have been unable to rent or sell or use this vehicle with the open recall that there's no fix in place for. I heard that Stellantis (FCS USA) had said that these vehicles that were outfitted for private use were not under the recall anymore, but i'm not seeing any information to this effect. on some VIN recall lookup sites, it doesn't show anyrecalls. but NHSTA still shows that this VIN is affected by Manufacturer Recall Number67C NHTSA Recall Number25V-720 PLEASE message me - I am pursuing legal action against RAM because i can't use the vehicle.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) randomly quits working, produces a yellow warning light and digital message saying it has failed and service required. This failure happens at completely random times and last for hours to days and then randomly starts working again. This began happening after purchase in 2024 and was first sent into the dealership for repair in May 2024. The problem persisted with additional dealership visits in: June 2024, Sept. 2024, Jan. 2025, May 2025, Sept. 2025, Oct. 2025, Jan. 2026. Now my warranty is expired and dealership is refusing to work on the vehicle. Stellantis eventually put out TSB 08-065-25 which was completed Oct. 2025 and it did not fix the problem. All repairs have been software and radar alignment related, no hardware for parts replaced. My vehicle is available for inspection. My safety has been put at great risk in at least two different ways: first it randomly stops working which leaves the vehicle no longer being controlled, second, I have an expectation of additional security from purchased equipment specifically following distance and lane management. I lose this additional layer of safety for hours or days when the system fails. The problem has not been reproduced but has been confirmed via OBD2 reader. Vehicle has been to 7 documented Stelantis dealerships.

Vehicle is overheating without gauges showing a problem. Had a mechanic check it out and the cooling fans are not working. I have seen there is a recall for this problem, but my VIN is not listed. This is a known problem, but RAM needs to widen their scope of vehicles that are affected by this fire risk.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
On 3 separate occasions between August 20 2025 to October 1 2025 and on one occasion in January 2026, while driving at highway speed, the drivers console and information display on the dash of the vehicle completely stopped responding and went dark. At that moment there was no information displayed on the dash at all. After approximately 10 seconds the displays began returning to operation a few lights and functions at a time with the functions on the rear view mirror and remote support/emergency help features lights stayed on and did not turn off until the vehicle was restarted. After the first instance I took the vehicle to the dealer in Burlington Vermont however they were not able to look at the vehicle and as the problem was not repeatable and not currently displayed they had no support to offer. Following the second instances instance the passenger in the vehicle had time to take a photo however the photo is simply of the vehicle traveling with the display off. The third instance offered again at night so no attempt was made at getting a photo or video. The problem was reported to the Clermont Florida dealer during the 10,000 mile service however again as the problem was not visible and not repeatable no action was taken by the dealer and there were no action was suggested or recommended. The problem has occurred once more in January 2026, again at highway speed, and power restored in a few seconds.

While driving down the interstate, the vehicle shut off completely without warning. I had to put it in park and quickly turn it back on. It drove for a few hundred miles and did it again. Then, at miles 9769 and 9980 it did it again. 4 times in less than 10,000 miles on the vehicle. No engine warnings, nothing. Just shuts off at all different speeds, without warning. Dashboard completely shuts off, and vehicle does not coast - just comes to an almost immediate stop.
