JAKARTA - Ram has recalled 79 units of the 2025 Ram 3500 and 2500 models in Australia, due to a problem with the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) module.

Citing the Drive website, Tuesday, January 13, the recall notice was submitted to the Department of Infrastructure which stated that due to the production defect of the ORC module, it could disable the Electronic Stability Control (ESC).

"If this happens, the ESC can fail without warning, resulting in loss of vehicle control. This can also result in seat belt fasteners and airbags not functioning as intended in the event of an accident," the report reads.

The report said that the loss of vehicle control or the failure of airbags and seat belt tensioners to inflate as they should in an accident is certainly very dangerous.

"Loss of vehicle control or failure of airbags and seat belt pretensioners to inflate as intended in an accident can increase the risk of injury or death for vehicle occupants," the report added.

Responding to the above, Ram advised vehicle owners affected to contact the nearest official Ram dealer to inspect their vehicles and.

For consumers who are affected and must update the ORC module, the company does not charge a fee, alias free. For this, it is mandatory to check the vehicle so that there are no unwanted problems.
