Chrysler Group LLC said Wednesday that it is recalling nearly 250,000 Dodge Ram pickups to replace a steering component that could break and increase the risk of a crash.
The Auburn Hills automaker said in documents posted on the website of National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that the recall is to replace the left outer tie rod and perform a front-end alignment as needed.
According to NHTSA, the condition could result in the potential loss of directional stability in the left front wheel, increasing the risk of a crash.
The recall was the second since December by Chrysler concerning Dodge pickups.
