Service bulletins for the 2020 Ram 3500
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.

| 9004157 | 2020-04-06. Service bulletin. ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL:AUTOMATIC (ASC); POWER TRAIN; SUSPENSION; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. MODULE, Air Suspension, [SEB] For replacement of Air Suspension Control Module (ASCM) due to the following DTCs, please contact FCA Redacted Content to aid in root-cause prior to repair at FCA Redacted Content or FCA Redacted Content U0132 (Loss of Comm) U0421 (Implausible Data) C220C (Software Supervision) C15DE-72 (Exhaust Solenoid Actuator Stuck Open) If no response in 15 minutes, proceed with repair. As per STAR Online case S1917000002: Do not replace any components. First record the DTC?s by creating and saving a vehicle scan report with WiTECH under the reports tab. Next, attempt to reset the ASCM by removing the F50 20A ASCM fuse in the Power Distribution Center. Then reinstall the fuse. Using WiTECH check for DTC?s. If U0132, U0421, U0422 DTCs are now stored, clear them. Perform a short test drive. If the codes do not return do not repair. Condition is under investigation by engineering. |
| 9004150 | 2019-12-02. Service bulletin. FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE; POWER TRAIN. SEAL, Input If looking to replace stubshaft due to ATX fluid leaking, do not replace PTU seals. None of the seals from the PTU side will need to be replaced whenever the ATX stubshaft is replaced, even though V-seal (68408748A$) is in direct contact with the stubshaft, it will not avoid grease/oil leakage from transmission side. PTU V-seals are intended to act as a dust cover for stubshaft - PTU input shaft spline interface. PTU Input shaft seal (68408749A$) is intended to hold PTU oil and debris ingress; it should be replaced only if the fluid leakage is confirmed to be PTU oil and not ATX trans. fluid. |
