Hello everyone,
We wanted to come on here to remind you of a recall that was launched previously in an effort to increase the completion rate. Some 2020-2023 Ram 2500s and 2020-2022 Ram 3500s may be affected.
The recall number is ZA3. The transmission on your vehicle may experience a buildup of pressure and heat inside the transmission. This can result in transmission fluid being expelled from the dipstick tube, which may come in contact with ignition sources within the engine compartment.
Your dealer will replace the transmission dipstick and the transmission vent hose.
Please send us a private message with your VIN and dealership if you are having trouble completing this recall. We know there has been a strict part restriction so please reach out to us if you need assistance.
You can learn more on recalls.mopar.com, or feel free to send us a private message. Wea re happy to answer any questions.
Thank you,
Ram Cares
[mod: There has been a subsequent Customer Satisfaction Notification released with updated parts to replace the tube and includes a full length locking dipstick.

Please refrain from further complaints regarding the short stick. Get your 2nd recall follow up work scheduled. ]
Ram indicated early on this was a temporary remedy.
