WASHINGTON, July 31 (Reuters) – Chrysler-parent Stellantis said Friday it will recall just over 1.5 million Ram 1500 pickup trucks worldwide over a seat belt issue.
The recall covers 2019–2026 Ram 1500 vehicles that may have been built with a second-row center or second-row driver side seat belt buckle anchor that was not properly attached to the vehicle body structure. The issue could impact the performance of the second-row seat belt system and increase the risk of injury to occupants. Stellantis is aware of one potentially related injury tied to the recall.
The recall includes 1.27 million vehicles in the United States, 156,000 in Canada, 15,000 in Mexico and about 75,000 outside North America.
