ABS Traction control lights

- Mediapolis, IA, USA

ABS light and traction control lights display, as well as flashing messages -??Service ABS System-?? and -??Service Electronic Braking System-?? when weather is wet or when I hit a bump or pothole in the road. Dealer states the ABS module and hydraulic control unit needs replaced and that the ABS system could lock up during emergency braking and suggested not driving. Parts are backordered until July 2024.

My abs module has a fault code on my dash with the light staying on. I went to my dealership to get the part replaced for my safety and after ordering one and paying for it in December 2023 they are now finding out their is none available and will not be available to order until June 2024, with no guarantee they will be available then What is one to do under these circumstances the is something the company needs to address NOW!!! Not whenever they feel like it. From what I-??ve read online this seems to be a major problem that many people that own these vehicles are dealing with Hopefully you help me with this situation Thanks [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Picked up my truck from the dealership and my ABS, and traction control light came on, and i lost my abs function and traction control. The my dash started flickering and it would go in and out. Now my heat also has stopped working. Truck is saying service abs system, service electronic braking, service rear park sensor. I do not feel safe in this vehicle as i did my research and see how many vehicles have been affected, i cannot believe Ram has not done a recall as with out my abs i almost slid off the road as it was icy out that day and i was unaware my abs would just stop like that.

During a snow storm, ABS and traction control lamps came on. The truck would not come to a controlled stop. After much sliding and skidding it came to a stop by hitting a snow abatement and curb line.

On approximately 7/20/2021 service anti lock brakes and service traction control warning lights and beeper were activated. The warranty had just expired due to date not mileage. Upon investigating on line I found this was a wide spread problem with no recall at this time. The fix is to replace antilock brake pump at a cost of 800 to 1,500 $. Dodge could not tell me if the part was upgraded or they are installing a newer version. They also would require a $250 scan after I supplied them a code on my scanner that identifies the same problem and a code. Now the warning lights go on and off on rough roads but mostly stays lit. I don-??t know how much of a safety issue this is but apparently I don-??t have traction control when the light is lit. As of a couple months ago the parts were not available.

I have an ABS light on and a traction control light. I understand this is a problem with 2017 Ram 2500 and the 2018 Ram 2500. It is my understanding from the dealer it will cost over $1,000 for the repair so that my brakes will work properly. Vehicle has less than 87,000 miles on it. I feel this should be brought to your attention. This is a safety issue for all affected vehicles. Ram knows about the issue and has failed to address the problem. I feel this should be corrected immediately. This is a safety issue for the motoring public.

The ABS brake system has failed and been replaced 3 times now and it is bad again. It needs to be recalled. The truck only has 53,000 miles

I keep getting the ABS/Traction control warning lights and aural dinging warning on my 2017 Diesel Ram 2500. I pull a 10,000 LB trailer and without this feature, this is a hazard and danger to me, my occupants in my truck and other motorists on the highway. I do 95% of my driving in the mountains so it is a very crucial, critical and dangerous situation when I don't have ABS operating. If there is ever an accident, Dodge is open to a law suit because there hasn't been a recall on this. I've read several other owners of this vehicle with the same issue. Please have Dodge company do a recall for everyone's safety.

Electronic braking systems and abs needs to be serviced. I have repaired this issue 3 times already from the dealership. It has popped up again

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

I have been getting the "service electronic braking system" warning light, and when I brought the vehicle to the dealership for repairs back in November I was told that the parts needed to fix this known issue are backordered for many months. Checked again today and was told probably not available until July at the earliest. Upon researching this issue, I learned that this failure is common to 2017 Ram 2500 trucks. I need to haul some heavy loads with a trailer, and am concerned that this failure of the braking system is putting me at risk for an accident.

My braking ABS HCU has failed 4 times in 6 years. At 4495, 10,058, 15,198, and 20,052 miles (last week.) Included is the paperwork associated with those failures that renders the ABS, and potentially the entire braking system into a failure mode. As noted in the paperwork, it happens about every 5,000 miles. Warning lights appear and dinging go off stating the ABS system needs serviced. At times its intermittent and other times it stays on. My research has found this is a very well noted problem with the 2017 and 2018 Dodge Ram trucks. In addition, there is a safety class action suit in California. Last date it occurred is noted below. I have all the repair data available electronically. However there must be a glitch in your system. When I hit the upload button it does not allow for an upload. Would be more than happy to provide.

I purchased my 2017 Ram 2500 truck new in October of 2017 from Champion Dodge in Gulfport, MS. Since then, I have been experiencing a reoccurring problem with the truck's ABS braking system. I have had the truck in the shop repairs on this ABS system five times since I have owned the truck. The first two repairs were covered under warranty, the next two visits I had to pay for, and the fifth visit, I was told they can't repair the truck and parts would not be available until maybe April of 2024. The trucks ABS braking system warning lights continuously flash and alarm making the truck almost unusable. I am also not sure if the truck is even safe to drive with this system malfunctioning. I feel this has to be a recall or something. I feel that Dodge/Ram should repair this truck at no cost to me. I will try to add all documentation to this submission. Any assistance you can proved me would be appreciated.

I bought the truck new in 2017. in July of 2019 I got a Traction control ABS warning light. I took it to the dealer and they told me that the HCU system needed replaced. They performed the repair under warranty. In July of 2021 I got the same warning and again took the vehicle to the dealer and they told me I had to have the repair performed again. Once again they performed the same repair, after some resistance on their part. Now in Nov of 2023, I am having the same warning light and they will not repair the problem now with out substantial repair cost. I feel like there is some sort of a safety issue going on with this brake system and it needs to be looked into.

HCU and ABS module have failed multiple times. The first time was repaired under warranty, the second failure there is a part backorder and I could not get it replaced. My truck is now out of warranty and the manufacturer is now pushing part availability put to Feb 2024. This is clearly defective equipment but the manufacturer will not address if and will not order recalls and replacement.
