# Service bulletin TMC\-23\-0001

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

## NHTSA's summary

During the production of the Ram Badlander, the OEM rear step is removed as it interferes with the larger exhaust tips that are installed. Two of the bolts that secure the step also partially secure the driver side hitch mount to the frame. On some 2022 Ram Badlander models \(2\) bolts may not have been reinstalled \(circled in red below\). If the two bolts are missing, order OE replacement parts, install and torque to OE specifications.
