What is being recalled

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Ram 1500 vehicles. The flash memory of the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) may become corrupted, disabling the vehicle's air bags and seat belt pretensioners.

Why it is dangerous

Disabled air bags and seat belt pretensioners increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
