SPECIFICATIONS & OWNERSHIP
2016 RAM 1500 Recalls & VIN Checks
Recall applicability is determined by VIN, not simply by model year or trim. Check current manufacturer and national safety recall databases before relying on an old article.
Confirm the engine, trim, drivetrain, market and installed equipment before using a part number, capacity or repair procedure.
Where to look
Use official Mopar recall lookup and Transport Canada or NHTSA resources for the truck’s market.
What to do with an open recall
Contact an authorized RAM dealer with the VIN and recall reference. Recall repairs are distinct from routine maintenance or voluntary service bulletins.
Use the correct model-year manual and current service information. Stop if instructions or safety precautions are unclear, and use a qualified technician for work you cannot verify.
