The American register
The British register
- DVSA recall R/2020/064: Ram 1500 Pickup (DS) AND Truck (DX) (The instrment cluster may become non-operational)
- DVSA recall R/2020/109: Ram 1500 Pickup (DT) (The transfer case contains a dual drive gear which may have been in...)

The European register
The Israeli register
Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

Issue:
On certain vehicles, the headlamp assemblies could cause the parking lamps and daytime running lights (DRLs) not to work, or to flicker. As a result, the vehicles may not meet certain requirements of Canadian regulations.
Note: This recall only affects vehicles equipped with premium headlamp assemblies.Safety Risk:
Parking lamps and/or daytime running lights (DRLs) that don't work properly could make the vehicle less visible to other road users. This could increase the risk of a crash.Corrective Actions:
FCA Canada will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect, and if necessary, replace the headlamp assemblies.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2026320.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Ram 1500, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Ram: 187 in the register, and 405 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2026.
