Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2021 Ram 1500 pickup trucks. The Trailer Reverse Steering Control Module (TRSCM) may prevent the rearview image from displaying. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, “Rear Visibility.” The potential number of trucks affected is 38,157.
A rearview camera that does not display an image reduces the driver’s rear view, increasing the risk of a crash and injury.
