The defect
Arrow Manufacturing, Inc. (Arrow) is recalling certain 2019-2021 Ram 4500 and 5500 cab chassis equipped with LiquidSpring Compressible Liquid Adaptive Suspension Systems (C.L.A.S.S.). The rear brake caliper flexible line may contact a suspension component, causing a brake fluid leak.
The risk
A brake fluid leak may cause partial or complete loss of the rear brakes, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Dealers installed a kit to modify the rear brake caliper flexible line mounting, and inspected and replaced worn brake lines as necessary, free of charge. All affected vehicles have been repaired and therefore no owner notification letters will be sent. Owners may contact Arrow Manufacturing customer service at 1-712-261-3157.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 21V974000.
