## What is wrong

Chrysler \(FCA US, LLC\) is recalling certain 2021 Ram 1500 vehicles equipped with a trailer reverse steering module \(TRSCM\).  The rearview camera image may not display.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."


## What can happen

A rearview camera that does not display an image reduces the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.


## The remedy

Dealers will update the TRSCM software, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed June 24, 2021.  Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1\-800\-853\-1403.  FCA, US, LLC's number for this recall is Y30.  This recall was superseded by recall number 21V\-918.


## Notes
