Vehicles Affected: Approximately 100 model-year 2016 Ram 1500 pickup trucks manufactured between Feb. 19 and March 3, 2016
The Problem: The front half-shafts may have been incorrectly manufactured, causing them to fracture without warning. A fractured half-shaft may damage underbody components and create road debris, increasing the risk of a crash.
The Fix: Dealers will replace the right half-shaft free of charge.
