July 7 (Reuters) - The U.S. National Highway Traffic

Safety Administration said on Monday it opened a recall query

covering about 1.2 million Stellantis' ( STLA ) Ram trucks

over concerns related to the transmission.

The auto safety regulator said impacted vehicles displayed

issues related to the brake transmission shift interlock, which

may lead to them rolling away.

The NHTSA said it received 14 vehicle-owner complaints and

six death and injury reports through its Early Warning Reporting

program.
