REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL Some of the above vehicles may have been built with a High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) that could fail prematurely. A high pressure fuel pump failure may introduce internally failed component debris into the fuel system potentially causing fuel starvation. Vehicle occupants may notice a Malfunction Indicator Lamp illuminating, a fuel leak, abnormal engine noise, or a change in drive quality. Fuel starvation may result in an unexpected loss of motive power, which can cause vehicle crash without prior warning.
SERVICE ACTION FCA US will conduct a voluntary safety recall to replace the HPFP, update the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) software, and inspect and, if necessary, replace additional fuel system components. The remedy for this condition is not currently available. Dealers will be notified of the launch of this safety recall by way of established communication methods. This recall is estimated to launch in 1st Quarter of 2022.

Wiper Arm Recall Z08 / NHTSA 22V-035
Report::
Some 2019-2020 MY Ram 3500 vehicles may have been built with one or both windshield wiper arms with an improperly formed wiper arm head joint. The suspect period began on April 27, 2019, when a new wiper nut was introduced into production, and ended on March 9, 2020, when the new wiper nut was no longer used in production. The suspect period was determined using vehicle production records. Similar vehicles not included in the recall were manufactured before or after the suspect period.
Recall Notice:
WHY DOES MY VEHICLE NEED REPAIRS?
The wiper arm on your vehicle [1] may have been built with an improperly formed wiper arm head joint that did not fully form the splines of the head joint on the wiper arm. This can allow the joint to strip and result in the wiper arm failing to operate properly when the system is activated. Prior to complete wiper system failure, the driver may notice that one or both wipers do not clear the windshield properly or that the wipers are not in their proper rest positions. An improperly functioning wiper system may, in certain circumstances, lead to diminished road visibility which can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning.
