Ram Active Driving Assist — ADAS Calibration
Ram uses Stellantis Active Driving Assist on equipped models. Many work-spec trucks (Tradesman, base 2500/3500) don't have ADAS cameras, while higher trims do. We verify your specific truck's equipment before scheduling.
Ram ADAS Calibration Requirements
| System | Active Driving Assist (Stellantis) |
|---|---|
| Camera Type | Single camera behind windshield (equipped models) |
| Calibration Type | Static, dynamic, or both — set by Mopar service information for the specific model |
| Trims WITH ADAS | Big Horn, Laramie, Limited, Rebel (varies by year) |
| Trims Often WITHOUT | Tradesman, base work trucks |
What Stellantis Publishes About Ram Glass Replacement
Ram's glass guidance comes from FCA US LLC, and it is written to cover Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram and FIAT together. The Mopar glass replacement position statement is a public document, and its language on cameras is conditional in a way that matters for a truck lineup that runs from bare work-spec to fully loaded.
Key Points in the Mopar Glass Replacement Position Statement
- The calibration rule follows the camera, not the badge: "If your vehicle's windshield is equipped with a forward-facing camera (typically integrated in the rearview mirror assembly), the camera must be recalibrated after the windshield has been installed." A Tradesman without that camera and a Laramie with it are two different jobs, which is why the trim has to be confirmed before the work is scheduled.
- The glass carries more than a camera: Stellantis states its glass "works with various advanced driver safety system electrical components, including cameras, rain sensors, antennae and heating elements," and that aftermarket glass may not support those components or may interfere with the vehicle's electronics.
- Coatings and moldings: Stellantis describes authentic Mopar glass as carrying coatings for UV protection and in-cabin heat reduction, and states the attached moldings are validated by exposure testing for UV, chemical, temperature, tear and abrasion resistance. On a truck that sits outdoors on a site all day rather than in a garage, those are the two properties that get tested hardest and soonest.
- Acoustic layers: Stellantis notes the glass "may be equipped with enhanced acoustic dampening technologies integrated into the glass assembly," and that aftermarket glass without it may mean more wind, road and engine noise in the cab.
- Model-specific adhesives: Stellantis states that its authorized removal and replacement procedures include "the use of advanced adhesives specific to each model," with vehicle-specific procedures published at TechAuthority.com.
Why This Matters More on a Working Truck
Stellantis publishes a separate scan tool position statement listing the conditions that can set diagnostic trouble codes during a repair. Two of them land squarely on trucks that live in a yard rather than a driveway: "glass removal and replacement operations" is on the list, and so is voltage loss, including battery disconnects.
That second one is the trap for a work truck. A Ram that has had its battery pulled for an upfit, a winch install, an auxiliary wiring job or simply a long layup can arrive at a glass appointment already carrying stored codes that have nothing to do with the windshield — and Stellantis names the forward-facing camera and radar, along with blind spot monitoring and other driver assistance systems, among the systems that must be checked for fault codes. Stellantis specifies the Mopar wiTECH tester both before and after the repair, and the pre-repair check is what separates a pre-existing fault from one the glass work introduced.
Which calibration procedure a given Ram needs is not something the position statements answer generically; they point to the vehicle-specific service information. Model year, trim and the camera module fitted are what determine it.
