Defect. Luxe Trucks dba Utility Bodywerks (Utility Bodywerks) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Ram 4500 and 5500 Cab Chassis vehicles. The rear brake caliper flexible lines may have been improperly routed, which could allow chafing against suspension components, and result in a brake fluid leak.

Risk. A brake fluid leak can cause a loss of brakes and increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy. Dealers will modify the rear brake caliper flexible line mounting, and replace the rear brake caliper flexible line as needed, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 30, 2022. Owners may contact Utility Bodywerks' customer service at 1-574-522-8422.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
