What are the latest Dodge recalls?

Many Dodge vehicles have existing open recalls for safety-related defects or non-compliance with minimum federal safety standards. The recent recalls involve the following model years:

Issue Affected Vehicles Impact Solution/Repair
Driver side mirror issue 2020 Ram 2500

2020 Ram 1500

Due to a manufacturing error, the mirror glass may detach from the backing plate and no longer provide a reflective surface. This could reduce rear visibility for the driver and may increase the risk of a crash. Dealers will replace the driver side mirror glass, free of charge.
Faulty backup camera 2018-2020 Dodge Charger Pursuit When the car is in a “stealth mode” setting and the driver shifts into reverse, the backup camera rearview image does not display, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will update the body control module (BCM) software to disable the stealth mode when the vehicle is put into reverse.
Rearview camera display issue 2019-2020 Ram 1500
2019-2020 Ram 2500
2019-2020 Ram 3500
2019-2020 Dodge Durango
2019 Dodge Challenger(Models equipped with 8.4” or 12” radio displays)
Due tof a software error, the rearview camera image remains displayed on  screen after the vehicle is no longer in reverse. This could potentially distract the driver and increase the risk of a crash. Dealers will update the software at no charge to the owner.
Brake issue 2019 Dodge Challenger
2019 Dodge Charger
Front and rear brake packages are incompatible with each other, and may not leave enough clearance between the tire inner sidewall and the suspension steering knuckle. A contact between the components could result in damage to the tires that would lead to a sudden loss of air pressure. This would potentially result in drivers losing control of the vehicle without warning, increasing the risk of an accident. FCA will inspect and replace the incompatible front wheels with wheels that are compatible with the brake package installed on the vehicle. If necessary, FCA will replace the rear wheels to match the front wheels.
