1. Mirrors and Cameras

For maximum visibility, the 2024 RAM 3500 offers available telescopic trailer tow mirrors, forward and reverse spotter functionality, and the Mirror-Mounted Camera System. The available Digital Rearview Mirror enhances safety by using side and rear-facing cameras to stream real-time video of the areas behind and to the sides of your truck and/or trailer. For even greater perspective, opt for the 360-degree Surround View Camera for a bird’s-eye perspective around your truck.

2. Safety Group Package

This available package enhances safety with features like Adaptive Steering, Automatic High-Beam Headlamp-Control, and Rain-Sensitive Windshield Wipers. The Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop maintains a set speed when the lane ahead is clear. When it senses objects in the truck’s path, it automatically adjusts to a pre-selected distance using limited braking and throttle control.

The Full-Speed Forward-Collision Warning with Active Braking detects potential impacts and will jerk the steering wheel to warn you. If necessary, the system will automatically brake to avoid or minimize the severity of a collision. LaneSense Lane Departure Warning with Lake Keep Assist monitors the vehicle’s position within lane boundaries and will alert you in the event of an unintentional drift. If you do not respond, the system will course correct using electric power steering.

3. RAM Connect

For the first ten years that you own your RAM, you will have RAM Connect Safety and Security, which works through your infotainment system and also syncs your truck with your smartphone. Get emergency help at the push of a button by connecting to a Customer Care Agent. For added peace of mind, Automatic SOS automatically connects you to an agent when your airbags are deployed, delivering faster emergency response.

If non-emergency assistance is needed, you can easily connect with a Call Center Agent for vehicle care aid. If you get a flat tire or run out of a gas, one button can bring you roadside assistance. For security, RAM Connect offers a Vehicle Theft Alert and Stolen Vehicle Assistance.

4. Built-In Safety

The RAM 1500 is outfitted with seat-mounted side-impact airbags, front-impact airbags, and an overhead air bag. For greater safety, the truck’s frame is reinforced with side impact beams, and it comes equipped with electronic stability control with anti-rollover.
