What owners reported
Source: NHTSA complaint databaseOwners of the 6 model years this bulletin names have filed 4,799 complaints with NHTSA since 2015. 970 of them name Electrical System, Engine — the same broad component group this bulletin is filed under. NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.
On the 2018 Ram 2500, the 29 owners who gave an odometer reading for Electrical System reported it at a median of 37,000 miles. That figure is one model year’s, not the whole range this bulletin covers — medians from different model years are not averaged.
The contact owns a 2016 Ram 2500. While driving 55 MPH, the engine stalled without warning. All the warning indicators illuminated after the failure occurred. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 4,000. The VIN was not available

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is Ram 9100923 a recall?
No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.
Is the 9100923 repair free?
Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way.
Which vehicles does 9100923 cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 12 model years: 2018 Ram 2500, 2017 Ram 2500, 2016 Ram 2500, 2018 Ram 3500, 2017 Ram 3500, 2016 Ram 3500 and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
