ABS, Electronic control system malfunction. Constantly failing causing safety to driving.

- Ridgefield, WA, USA

Vehicle has about 60,000 miles. Has started intermittent service electronic brake and service abs warning. Noticed alot of information online that this is happening more than a normal rate of failure. I believe where this is being looked into...hoping for a speedy response. Thank You!

A Hydraulic Control Unit malfunction resulting in multiple warning lamps flashing on and off intermittently - including the ABS, the EBS, the Traction Control, and the Cruise Control. This is apparently a known issue with this model year truck and is inclusive of a class action lawsuit, yet there has been no recall. This failure results in unpredictable breaking and/or the ability to break and operate, especially in slippery conditions. This replacement repair is estimated at $1,100-1,300 on top of incredible uneasiness to operate the vehicle.

Anti-lock break system malfunctioning. This module has already been replaced once in 2021 by a dealership. Now the module is malfunctioning again and needs to be replaced. This affects the trucks traction control system and cruise control. Meaning the vehicle will slide during winter/rainy weather. There are to warning lights that come on on the dash warning you that this system is malfunctioning.

The contact owns a 2017 Ram 2500. The contact stated while driving 70 MPH with the Adaptive Cruise Control engaged, the contact depressed the accelerator pedal to overtake another vehicle; however, after overtaking the other vehicle, the vehicle continued to accelerate independently. The contact depressed the brake pedal; however, the vehicle decelerated temporarily and continued to accelerate independently. The contact pulled to the side of the road. The contact turned off and restarted the vehicle, and the vehicle responded as needed. The contact stated that the failure reoccurred while driving. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V332000 (Electrical System, Vehicle Speed Control). The vehicle was taken to the dealer for the recall repair; however, the dealer informed the contact that the recall repair was previously performed on the vehicle. The dealer informed the contact that a fee would be charged for the repair. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted but did not provide any assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 140,000.

ABS breaking failure/warning on an intermittent but ongoing basis. Specifically, repeated failures of anti-lock brake modulator valve that causes ABS system to not function properly. Sometimes the ABS warning light flashes on and off, sometimes it stays on for weeks. RAM knows about the problem with part number 68143491AA. They replaced it for me once on 3/1/2022 at 50,650 miles but put in the exact same failing part. It started to fail again September 2, 2023. I had it diagnosed 11/21/2023 (as soon as I could get it in). It's the exact same issue. These vehicles are hazardous to drive. They have a replacement part now 68143491AB, but they refuse to pay for the repair leaving customers to to afford the expensive repair, drive the vehicles in an unsafe condition, or not use the vehicle at all.

ABS module and HCU. Very hard to stop and kicks off cruise control all of a sudden. It was replaced 1 year ago less than 7000 miles and it went out again

- Paris , TN, USA

The ABS module/HCU is faulty just like thousands of others who are reporting this same issue. Tested with an expensive scan tool by a certified mechanic AND the local dodge dealership in Greenwood SC. Dealership doesn't have the parts to fix it and can't tell me when parts will be available. The warning lights on the dash come and go but are on 75% of the time. This is EXTREMELY dangerous because when the lights come on it kicks the cruise control off suddenly. VERY unsafe on the interstate in traffic doing 85MPH. I'm surprised myself or no one else has been killed due to this.

Abs pump failure intermittent loss of braking system and traction

- Medina, OH, USA

ABS control module pump/Hydraulic control module. 49000 miles. ABS lights/Service Electronic braking. No parts available for repair. On indefinite back order from Mopar. This problem needs to be solved. Thanks

Problem #1- I had to replace the ABS module and HCU on this truck at about 10k miles. (this was completed under warranty). Then at 50k miles truck was diagnosed with the same problem. I had to pay out of pocket for this repair. I ordered these parts from the dealer in November 2021, and they did not get me in until August 19, 2023. I had to pay ($1152.33). This is very dangerous when it has this error it causes the service sabitrac and service abs pop up on the display nonstop with no way to clear it. It also chimes every time. it is very distracting. while these service lights are on, I had no cruise control or traction control. Problem # 2 Transmission over drive failed. I had to replace transmission and transfer case. This makes for an unsafe vehicle that could leave me stranded on the side of the road. this repair cost me ($7,500). Failed at 67,675 miles. Problem # 3 turbo actuator failed and had to replace at 68,565 miles this cost me ($1750). this is an extended warranty on the 2015 model year pickups. Should be all across the board for all trucks using the same design/parts. In total on just repairs under 70k miles I have been forced to spend ($10,402.33). This truck is not road safe at all and I should be reimbursed for all my money I had to spend. At the bare minimum i should be compensated for all my down time plus repairs.

The abs HCU has failed for the second time. This happened at 37,000 miles and has happened again at 61,000 miles. Factory mopar parts were installed after the first failure. Now parts are unavailable. I have no abs, traction control or cruise control.

- Maumelle, AR, USA

The HCU/ABS system in my truck is acting up and intermittent. Causing ABS to not work and making beeping noises on and off while driving. Also causes the cruise control to not work.

The service light for a electronic Brake System as well as the light for Electronic ABS system started blinking on and off numerous times. I called the dealer to make an appointment and had to wait 2 months to get it in for service. When I got it in for service they told me the issue. They said it will be covered under my extended warranty. However, the part is in Engineering hold and is not available for ordering untill February 22, 2024. I need my truck. Can't wait 5 months for it to be ordered and shipped. That is if they release for orders in the 21st. Now my truck is setting in the dealer back lot, unsafe to drive they have told me. This all started while driving. Fortunately I didn't have an accident or and incident before getting it to the dealership.

Failure of ABS pump module and ABS electrical connection has taken place and is available for inspection. This failure has caused failure of my ABS system, traction control system as well as my ability to use my trailer brakes when hauling which I have to do on a regular basis which in turn puts all drivers around me in danger as well as myself and any passengers I have while driving. Problem is repeated on a fairly regular basis however I am unable to know when it will or will not occur. It has been looked at by a service center with codes sent to local dealership who stated -??those parts are under engineering review and are unable to be ordered through normal procedures-?? however he stated he would be able to put in a special request to Mopar to get one of the -??under review-?? parts sent to his dealership. Vehicle has not been inspected by anyone other than my local service mechanic. The problem has been associated with alarms, abs lights, traction control lights and multiple messages on my dash board screen hundreds of times while driving long distances.

Electronic braking system and ABS lights intermittently come on and off an throws a code c0020-01 which many dealers say should replace the HCU and ABS modules and research has shown that this if a short-term fix on a fault component. Please hold ram to task.

C0020-01 ABS Pump Motor Control General Electrical failure (brake, module). Intermittent loss of braking performance.

- Stillwater, MN, USA

The service antilock brake system/ service electronic braking system lights began turning on and off intermittently around August of 2022. These would sometimes be prompted or exacerbated by wet driving conditions or bumps, but often just at random while driving. At the beginning of the issue, vehicle had roughly 48,000 miles. After paying for diagnosis, the failed part was deemed to be the ABS pump motor-general electrical failure, code C0020-0 as well as code C006C-9A for stability system component failure. Being RAM dealer-only parts and needing software flashes for installation, this repair costs between $1000 and $2000 USD. This failure leaves these HD trucks without ABS systems (functioning systems are required in many states for vehicle safety inspections). The cherry on top of this situation is the replacement parts are unavailable nation-wide as FCA "switches manufactures". This leaves the ABS inoperable and the trucks completely unsafe with absolutely NO alternative actions. No loaner vehicles offered, no recourse for failing safety inspections, nothing. Many folks use these as business or work trucks, depend on them, and have no choice but to keep driving with the issue as-is. This is a blatant hazard and needs to be corrected as soon as possible.
