On 34 Ram 1500 pickup trucks in Canada, the coolant bypass valve may stick in a position that does not allow coolant flow to the heater core.

Any loss of windshield defrosting and defogging functions may, under certain conditions, compromise the driver’s ability to see the road and its users, which could result in a crash.

Dealers will therefore inspect and, if necessary, replace the coolant bypass valve while reprogramming the powertrain control module with updated software.
