Ram Trucks Australia has recalled 137 pickups from its 1500, 2500 and 3500 model lines due to an airbag fault.
“Due to a manufacturing defect, the Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) may have not been welded to the required specifications,” the carmaker said in its recall notice.
“As a result, the SCCM could fail to send an airbag deployment signal to the Occupant Restraint Controller preventing the driver’s airbag from deploying.
“In the event of an accident, the airbag not deploying as intended could increase the risk of injury or death to vehicle occupants.”
