Service bulletins for the 2025 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.

355 on file from NHTSA, as of 2026-10-19.

91009222026-09-23. Service bulletin. ENGINE; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. SENSOR Exhaust Temperature If this sensor is being replaced due to an early-life P242B pending fault code, clear the fault code and perform the Powertrain Verification Test. Only replace the sensor if P242B returns as an active fault code.
