Park These Ram Trucks Outside In Case They Catch on Fire

Stellantis, Fiat-Chrysler's parent company, is voluntarily recalling more than 300,000 diesel Ram pickup trucks to replace an electrical connector after reports of six fires. The company recommends you park these trucks outside to prevent the potential spread of fire, at least until the repairs are made.

What is the recall for?

The company discovered a part on some of the trucks can potentially overheat and create an engine compartment fire originating from the "intake heater grid relay." The recall says an electrical short in the relay can potentially lead to a vehicle fire with the ignition on or off. And to protect the property of the owners and safety of others, they recommend not parking these vehicles inside of buildings or structures, or near other vehicles until the recall is complete.
