What's wrong?
The accelerator pedal in the 2014 Ram Promaster is the driver's throttle control. Pressing it tells the engine to add power, and releasing it is supposed to let the pedal return to its resting position. A stopper limits pedal travel so the pedal does not move beyond its designed range.
On affected vans, the pedal can be pushed downward at an angle that lets it interfere with the accelerator pedal stopper. When that happens, the pedal can stick in the wide open throttle position instead of springing back. The problem is mechanical: the pedal and stopper contact each other in a way that traps the pedal when it is pressed at the wrong angle.
There is no warning sign before failure. The first thing an owner would notice is the accelerator pedal staying down after being pressed, with the engine continuing to demand power until the driver takes corrective action.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether this recall applies to your specific van.
What's the safety risk?
A stuck accelerator pedal can cause uncontrolled acceleration and increase the risk of a crash. If the accelerator sticks, press the brake pedal firmly, slow to a stop, turn the vehicle off, and contact a Ram dealer. Repair will be free at any franchised Ram dealer once available.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2014 Ram Promaster is included in this recall.
- Contact your nearest franchised Ram dealer to ask when the free accelerator-pedal-stopper replacement is ready for your vehicle.
- Reference recall number 14V032 when you call so the dealer can find the correct Ram campaign.
- Use the brake pedal to slow and stop the vehicle if the accelerator pedal gets trapped.
- Bring the recall notice if Ram mailed one, or bring your VIN and recall number to the dealer.
What happens at the repair
The dealer repair is to replace the accelerator pedal stopper with a larger stopper, free under the recall once available for the VIN. At the dealer, a Ram technician works at the pedal assembly so the stopper no longer interferes with pedal travel in the way described by campaign 14V032. The source also notes that these vehicles have a brake override system: if the accelerator pedal is trapped, pressing the brake pedal will slow and stop the vehicle so the driver can turn it off.

Frequently asked questions
What is recall 14V032?
Recall 14V032 covers 7,935 2014 Ram Promaster vans with an accelerator pedal stopper issue. The pedal can get stuck at wide open throttle if pressed at a certain angle. Ram dealers replace the accelerator pedal stopper with a larger one for free.
What should I do if my 2014 Ram Promaster is on this recall?
Check your VIN to confirm your specific van is included in recall 14V032. If it is, contact a franchised Ram dealer and ask for the accelerator pedal stopper replacement under recall P02. The dealer repair is free.
Is the recall repair free?
Yes. Federal recall law requires the manufacturer to repair this defect at no cost. A franchised Ram dealer will replace the accelerator pedal stopper with a larger one for free, including parts and labor.
What is the safety risk?
The risk is uncontrolled acceleration if the accelerator pedal gets stuck at wide open throttle. That condition can increase crash risk. The filing notes these vans have a brake override system, so pressing the brake pedal helps slow and stop the vehicle before turning it off.
What if I bought my Ram Promaster used?
The free recall repair still applies. Recall coverage follows the VIN, not the first owner. Check your VIN to confirm whether your van is included, then reference recall 14V032 or Ram recall P02 when you call the dealer.
