Ram ProMaster Recalls (2014-2026)
The Ram ProMaster has been the subject of 44 recall campaigns on record with NHTSA across the 2014 to 2026 model years. They cluster mostly around the electrical system, seats, and equipment.
The Ram ProMaster scores 75 out of 100 (grade B), a better-than-average recall record. That score reflects how serious the recalls are rather than how many. 61% involve a critical safety system, none carried a do-not-drive warning, and 30% were issued in the last three years. How the score works.
Those 44 campaigns span 13 model years of the Ram ProMaster. The single largest affected 1,033,433 vehicles, over back over prevention. A recall repair is free at a franchised dealer and most never expire, so an older open recall is still worth fixing. Beyond recalls, you can also see the most common ProMaster problems owners report.
The full record is below, grouped first by model year and then listed in detail. Each entry gives the defect NHTSA describes, the safety risk it creates, the manufacturer's remedy, the number of vehicles in that campaign, and the dates. A recall covers a whole production run, so a campaign listed for the Ram ProMaster may not apply to your exact vehicle, and one you have already had repaired will still appear in the history. To see what is actually open and unfixed on a specific car, check its 17-digit VIN.

Defect: Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2014 Ram ProMaster vehicles manufactured April 23, 2013, to August 22, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) may fail to learn the locations of the individual sensors while the vehicle is being driven. As a result, the low tire pressure warning light will illuminate, despite the the tire pressures being within specification. Should one of the tires lose air pressure, the driver would not be notified of the change in air pressure. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."
Risk: If the TPMS light illuminates because the sensors cannot be located, it could mask an actual low tire pressure condition, possibly resulting in tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will update the TPMS module with new software, free of charge. The recall began on December 8, 2014. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P62.

- Does the Ram ProMaster have any recalls?
- Yes. NHTSA has 44 recall campaigns on record for the Ram ProMaster across the 2014 to 2026 model years. The most common areas are the electrical system, seats, and equipment.
- How many times has the Ram ProMaster been recalled?
- The Ram ProMaster has 44 recall campaigns from the 2014 to 2026 model years. A single campaign often covers several model years at once, so the number of recalls is not the same as the number of years affected.
- What is the most serious Ram ProMaster recall?
- The most serious recall on record involves the back over prevention, affecting 1,033,433 vehicles. A rearview camera image that does not display decreases the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Which Ram ProMaster model year has the most recalls?
- The 2016 Ram ProMaster has the most, with 14 recall campaigns on record. Older model years often pick up more recalls over time, since defects can surface years after a car is built.
- How do I check if my Ram ProMaster has an open recall?
- Enter your 17-digit VIN on the recall check page. It returns the recalls tied to your exact vehicle straight from NHTSA. Recall repairs are free at a franchised dealer, with no expiration on most safety recalls.
