Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2014 Pro Master 3.6L.

Body SUVEngine 3.6L

The 2014 Ram Pro Master 3.6L is an SUV built on the VF platform, powered by a 3.6-liter engine that takes 6.0 quarts of 5W-20 API oil. Its reliability record for this model year is defined by 71 owner complaints led by the power train, paired with 13 recalls, giving it a notably heavy footprint within the model's history. Researchers should therefore treat the 2014 as a benchmark data point when evaluating the vehicle's overall standing rather than a quiet baseline.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

Owner complaints about the 2014 Ram Pro Master top in one area — the power train, 10 of 71 reports (14%), well ahead of the next concern. That matters, because the power train are also the target of recalls 20V-036 and 20V-582 on this vehicle — so the single most useful check before buying or servicing one is confirming they were actually performed. 4 of the reports describe a crash and 1 a fire — a small share of the total, but worth weighing against the power train pattern above. These are tallies of what owners actually reported to the federal government, not an editorial score — and higher-selling models naturally rack up more reports.
