What happened

Chrysler is recalling certain 2013 Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks manufactured between January 7, 2013, and February 28, 2013, that are equipped with optional premium headlamps. The headlight shutters may not function properly when the high beams are engaged, which can reduce the driver's visibility and potentially blind oncoming traffic, increasing the risk of a crash.

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reconfigure the Central Body Controller at no charge to fix the problem. The recall began on July 30, 2013. Affected consumers should contact Chrysler at 1-800-247-9753 to schedule the repair, referencing Chrysler's recall campaign number N33.
