RAM 2500 Truck 4WD L6-5.9L DSL Turbo VIN 7 (2001)
Alternator: Recalls
Recall 02V042000: Loose Alternator Wire May Cause Fire
Defect: On certain pickup trucks, the alternator wire connection to the power distribution center (PDC) can loosen, resulting a vehicle fire.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the installation of the alternator wire connection to the PDC and, if necessary, reposition the wire so that the crimp
connection will face upward and tighten the fastener to the correct torque setting. The manufacturer reported that owner notification was expected to
begin during late April or early May 2002. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact DaimlerChrysler at
1-800-853-1403.
