SYSTEM OR PARTS AFFECTED
UNDERHOOD® air compressor systems for model year 2025+ RAM trucks
OVERVIEW
Installing an UNDERHOOD air compressor system in a vehicle originally equipped with dual alternators is considered “out of application” and will void the VMAC warranty.
•
UNDERHOOD air compressor systems are not compatible with vehicles equipped with dual alternators.
•
While the removal of the secondary alternator is physically possible, doing so will negatively impact charging system performance and will cause the vehicle to display error codes.
•
RAM dealers are unlikely to reprogram the vehicle to disable the secondary alternator.
