Service bulletins for the 2014 Ram 1500
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.

Flash: Transmission Shift Enhancements This bulletin involves flash reprogramming of the Transmission Control Module (TCM) with new software. The customer may indicate that they may have experienced any of the following: ? 4x4 Low Mode shift quality during a medium to heavy throttle ? MIL Illumination for DTC P215C - OUTPUT SHAFT SPEED WHEEL SPEED CORRELATION In addition, calibration changes have been made in the following areas to improve: ? Powertrain braking while in Tow/Haul mode ? Downshift response from a medium to heavy pedal ? Drivability at high altitude ? Acceleration performance during cruise control operation This calibration release also corrects a condition where DTC U11C3 may have been displayed when DTC U11E3 should have been displayed resulting in a possible misdiagnosis. |
