ABS Control Module failed and manufacture has not had a replacement available for at least a year and a half, they were supposed to be available March 2024 and that date has been pushed back every month. No one makes an aftermarket module either. Not having ABS on a Truck in Florida is very dangerous.

ABS, Brake, and traction light came on. Took my vehicle to dealership for diagnostic. The dealership stated it was caused by internal failure to ABS module and HCU. Parts are not available for repair due to parts engineering approval. This is a safety issue were the brakes could fail. Manufacturers should be responsible for repairs and recall vehicles for safety issues. How can the dealership say ABS is unavailable to order.

ON [XXX], I brought my truck to the dealer because the ABS light and traction control light were staying on. The dealer hooked it up to their diagnostic machine and it said the vehicle a Failed ABS Control Module. The dealer said that part was not available to April of 2024. I went back in April to the Dealer, Part still not Available! I called Ram Corporate and they said the part was in engineering. Today (August 22,2024) Ram Corporate called and said the part is at the dealer. (11months of waiting). I asked why wasn't there a recall on this item? i was very disappointed in the Ram Corporation. I felt like they should of covered the cost for this item. So now I'm writing this message to see if anyone else has this same issue, thanks, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

ABS control module internal failure. Can't get a replacement park because this is such a problem. Local dealership says they have a list of over 100 customers who need this part. And it's a nation wide issue.

My truck, like those of numerous other Ram owners, has a malfunctioning ABS Control Module. Because of this malfunction, the ABS and cruise control do not work. In turn, this places me and other owners of this vehicle in an unsafe situation in that lack of an operating ABS system is conducive to skidding and accidents. Some owners have even reported that they cannot drive their vehicles due to locked brakes which resulted from this malfunction. I have a standing Brake, ABS, Anti Skid light and no Cruise control. All symptoms of a failed ABS Module. New Repair parts are not available from the Dealers or other Repair shops. Many trucks and drivers are at risk especially in winter weather or rain slick roads.

Back in September 2023 my brake light and ABS light came on in my 2015 RAM 1500. I took it into the dealership where purchase the Truck and had purchased a extended warrantee from the manufacture at that time of purchase. They told me that I needed a new ABS module but they were on back order. They have given many date where they were suppose to have them back in stock and all have come and gone. Since September 2023 I have checked with them and the date keep moving all the while my cruise control do not work. This is an issue, can you please help?

COMPLAINT/INCIDENT.On February 9th 2024, I was making a right hand turn onto main Street. My speed was under 10mph, closer to 5mph.. Without any warning or MIL, my truck suddenly went from easy steering to unable to move the steering column and jerked/locked the wheel by 90 degrees to the left. In other words, the steering wheel went from the 3:00 position and locked into place at the 12:00 position at the apex of the right turn. This put me on a path to driving into a 2story brick building. I was unable to accelerate and I was unable brake momentarily. The engine sputtered a few times; and that is when the MIL lit up on my dashboard stating -??electronic power steering service-?? and -??low battery voltage-??. After the lights came on, the steering was brought back to normal along with the acceleration and my brakes. After the MIL displayed, steering resumed enough to pull into a parking spot. All of this occurred within 80ft from the apex of the corner to where the truck finally locked up. Total distance traveled 195 ft from start of turn to parked. The steering column and wheel completely locked up once in parking spot. I weigh about 230 lb and I could literally hang off the wheel without the wheel moving an inch.. At home, the power to the truck did not turn off like it normally would after 30 secs. The manual neutral transmission switch was pulled, which normally does not interfere with shutdown. After disengaging the truck powered off. However, I was unable to restart and only a clicking noise was heard. A battery booster jumpstarted successfully. No MIL on dash on startup. Surprisingly, the steering came back to normal. PART NUMBERS. The EPS numbers on the outside casing are P68242957AD and TIC2794A8134. Neither of these numbers have been listed in any of the documentation provided by the NHTSA on the power steering recall nor the reopened investigation.

ABS control unit and ABS pump failure, repaired and more failures. Repair is to keep buying new expensive parts that will fail again. This ABS system is poorly designed or the feedback control component is poorly designed. It doesn't work properly, repairing it is not answer, parts are back ordered for months or years AND IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE, HIGH SPEED SAFETY, WHERE PEOPLE DIE DUE TO NOT EMERGENCY STOPPING CORRECTLY. GET ON IT. HOW MANY FAILURES DO YOU NEED TO SEE?
- Fort Lauderdale, FL, USA
Total ABS system failure at about 58k miles. Dash lights came on and chimes ringing. Took it in to the dealer for service, replaced ABS module and HCU. I drove for a week and problem came up again. Dealer said that ABS module was bad but HCU was good. Truck has been sitting at dealer since June 2023. They said that no parts are available across the U.S. and that Chrysler is reengineering ABS module. Parts weren't going to be available until March 2024, now it's April 2024.
