Suspension
The defect
Carli Suspension is recalling adjustable track bars, part numbers CS-DPRB03 and CS-DPRB14. These track bars were sold for use on 2013-> Ram 3500 4X4, 2014-> Ram 2500 4X4, 2003-2013 Ram 2500 Diesel and Hemi and 2003-2012 Ram 3500 diesel trucks. The track bars have a Johnny Joint rod end that may break, resulting in the track bar detaching from the axle.
The risk
If the joint were to break, the detached track bar would cause a loss of steering, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Carli Suspension will notify owners, and will provide a heim joint to replace the Johnny Joint, free of charge. The recall began on August 14, 2017. Owners may contact Carli Suspension customer service at 1-888-992-2754 or info@CarliSuspension.com.
