Recall 22V407 affects 117,413 2022 Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 trucks for a rearview-camera display failure. Repair is free at any franchised Ram dealer.
Ram is recalling 117,413 2022 1500, 2500, and 3500 trucks because radio software can stop the rearview camera image from appearing. Without that image, the driver has less rear visibility and the risk of a crash rises; Ram dealers will complete the free repair.

What's wrong?
The rearview camera on the 2022 Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 sends the backing image to the radio screen. When the truck is shifted into reverse, that screen is supposed to show the area behind the vehicle so the driver has the rear visibility required by FMVSS 111.
In recall 22V407, the problem is not the driver using the system wrong. Some trucks were built with a rearview camera system and radio software combination that does not work correctly. The radio screen can show a blue screen with a message that the camera system is unavailable instead of the rearview image during a backing event. Ram's repair is a radio software update that corrects how the radio handles the unstable camera image.
There is no warning sign before failure. The first thing an owner notices is the missing rearview image when shifting into reverse.
Who's affected?
Covers three Ram pickup classes in the 2022 model year, all tied to the same rear-view camera display function.

Year and model alone do not confirm inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific pickup truck is included.
What's the safety risk?
If the rearview camera does not show an image, the driver loses part of the rear view while backing up, which increases the risk of a crash. There is no warning sign before the screen fails to show the camera image. Use extra care when reversing and schedule the repair soon. Repair is free at any franchised Ram dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2022 Ram 1500, 2500, or 3500 is included in this recall.
- Contact your nearest franchised Ram dealer to schedule the free radio software update that restores rearview camera display.
- Bring the recall notice if Ram mailed one. If not, reference recall number 22V407 when you call.
- Confirm the rearview camera image appears before backing up, and use mirrors and a walk-around until the software update is complete.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Ram technician reprograms the radio software so the rearview image display works as required. The software update and labor are free under the recall. If you already paid out of pocket for a related radio software or rearview camera display repair before the recall letter, FCA US's reimbursement process asks for the original receipt or other proof of payment so the expense can be confirmed.
