That's not factory. Looks like someone added an aftermarket phone system.

^^^ DITTO ^^^ OP, U need to trace those wires and see where plugged/spliced in before U go ripping, IMHO...

Pop off the lower panel and tuck it back behind it. Out of sight out of mind.

 

[Randy Grant]

After market. Trace the wires and cut/unhook.

I bought it from the Ram dealer w 12 miles on the truck & it’s been there since I took the test drive in October 2019

Following up, I tucked it away behind the steering column, but now I have a slight concern somebody in the supply chain added some shady stuff to my truck…

Yeah, like a tracker. Some dealers install them for inventory but some are required by the financial institutions. Was it financed? Definitely follow the wires and see if it goes to a unit that is also plugged into the OBDII plug harness like they commonly are.
Stock radio in this truck I assume?

Perhaps it is part of one of those tracking devices some dealers put on new vehicles. If you bought it new, it should not have any crap like that added on. I mean looks like a real **** poor installation of some POS aftermarket device.

 

[Randy Grant]

Cut the tracker out of mine. Don't need any extra cr@p that I didn't pat for.

What happens when you push the button?
Do either Batman or Commissioner Gorden pick up?

 

[Marshall]

Push the button and see who answers the phone.
then get the side cutters out.
You should already have a blue tooth in the factory radio?

I found this statement and a photo of a similar item:

This switch is a GSM/GPRS MODEM TRANSMITTER MODULE made by MOPAR. It is obviously an aftermarket add-on. It appears that it is interfaced with a cell phone

 

[LemmysDad]

Weird. Why?

 

[Bigskyroadglide]

Tracking device, big brother is watching

 

[madtrucker2016]

Just cover the Led light with black tape

That is a Mopar EVTS system.
