ABS/ELECTRIC BRAKING SYSTEM LIGHT... HAD ABS PUMP MOTOR and HCU REPLACED 2 TIMES WITHIN 28 MONTHS AT MY COSTS..LESS THAN 60K ON ODOMETER

- Lk Ronkonkoma, NY, USA

I have read online that this is a common problem for Ram Trucks. The SEBS and ABS lights and alarm will start flashing and dinging- the result is Intermittent ABS and traction control lights, no cruise or 4x4. I have 38,000 miles. I spent approximately $1300 to have it repaired. When I was. At the Ram repair shop, I was told that the parking lot was full of similar Ram trucks with the same problem.So clearly there should be a recall.

Repeated ABS service message on dash. Light and chime turn on and off while depressing brake pedal, turning, hitting bumps. ABS module and hydraulic module were already replaced 20k miles ago for same issue. Code C0020-01

- Pleasantville, NY, USA

HCU/ABS modules have failed for the second time in 50K miles. While using Cruise Control at highways speed (70mph) in heavy traffic the warning lines and chime came on. At the same instance the truck started slowing down dramatically. Almost causing us to get rear ended. It was like slamming on the brakes, but without brake lights to warn cars behind me. I finally figured out it caused the Cruise Control to kick out. Now I am having to listen to the constant chirping of the chime. It even chimes when the truck is not moving!!! Let me ask this question.... Why is it that long ago NHTSA required Anti-Lock Brakes on all cars to improve safety" Yet, when that system has a systemic problem of failure on these trucks, it's no longer a safety related problem" Makes zero sense!!! I purchased this truck with 99K miles on it. These modules went out once approximately 10K miles later. Now I have 154K miles and they have gone out again. FCA is selling replacement modules but they are the exact same failed design. They are not only not fixing the issue, they are knowingly selling parts that have systemic and reoccurring safety failures. This is legally called blatant negligence...

ABS module failure

- Waterford, MI, USA

The illumination of the ABS light and traction control light. The light actives intermittently. The reported problem from a vehicle code reader is -?? ABS pump motor control general electrical failure-??. With the lights illuminated, I am no longer able to use cruise control. Prior to the warning lights I noticed I was having to depress my brake pedal harder than normally at random times. No signs of brake fluid loss or leaks. The brake pads are in good working condition. I have not taken it to a dealer as I have read the replacement parts are on back order and there are multiple lawsuits pertaining to this issue as well.

In July of 2020 my 2017 RAM 2500 ABS and Service Electronic Brakes warning lights began illuminating intermittently. My vehicle had 12,343 miles on the odometer at the time and was three years old. There was no noticeable change to the brake performance. The vehicle was brought into a RAM dealer for service which found code C0020-01 ABS Pump Motor Control-General Electrical Failure present with Starcase #S2005000004 instructing the replacement of the hydraulic control unit. This corrected the issue until August of 2024 when the above warning lights began illuminating again, intermittently, but in increasing frequency. The issue was diagnosed by a RAM dealer with the same code as above (C0020-1) and the recommendation to again replace the hydraulic control unit. My vehicle had 30,901 miles on the odometer at the time. The total for the service in 2020 was $984.89 and in 2024 $698.46 for the second replacement of a component within 5 years. Understanding that there was no recall ever issued, the ABS and Stability/ Traction control systems are designed to provide safety to vehicle occupants in heavy braking or loss of traction situations. While there was no noticeable difference in brake function, the presumption is that if there are warning lights activated, there is an unknown issue with the brake system which could result in brake failure. Further, the requirement to replace the same part twice in 30,000 miles at a total cost of $1,683.35 does not seem reasonable. Many owners have posted similar issues with this component with no apparent resolution other than to continue to replace the component when it fails. The component can be inspected, however it is currently installed on my vehicle.

Abs and traction control light error repeatedly after repair and replacement of abs and hsu module

- Del Valle, TX, USA

Recurring ABS and traction light warning lights, with trouble code C0020 for the ABS pump control motor. Loss of function of ABS, traction control, and cruise control when it occurs. Truck has ~50k miles on it.

- Milford, IA, USA

Vehicle is displaying service abs and traction control. C-0020 and told to replace abs pump and hcu module. Ram has multiple issues with different year makes and models involving abs and recently recalled the new rams. Research has shown high numbers of issues involving the 2017 ram 2500 for this exact issue and ram also could not provide the recommended part to fix. Abs does not work which is required by the nhsta and ram has released defective vehicles for years. This issue needs to be included in a recall.

Abs light goes on and off intermittently. Caused my truck wheels to lock up in fast stop maneuver. Dealer said ABS module needs to be replaced but there is no recall yet.

- Sacramento, CA, USA

The ABS warning lights comes on intermittently saying that the ABS braking system needs to be serviced. This appears to be can common defect with the Hydraulic Control Unit and Module on all 2017 to 2018 Dodge Ram trucks. With this defect the anti skid braking system does not work and the brakes are compromised. This happened at about 30,000 miles and the truck was already out of warranty. Dodge is stating that it will cost about $2,500 dollars to fix once Hydraulic Control Units become available. Apparently there is a nation wide back order.

- San Lorenzo, CA, USA

ABS & traction control brake failure light goes on and off as I-??m driving. The ABS module was replaced around 30,000 and now it-??s doing the same thing at 70,000. This is unsafe to be carrying heavy cargo and not being able to stop in time. Please issue a recall for RAM to fix this issue.

- Georgetown, TX, USA

ABS and Traction Control lights have come on for the second time. First time at 100K miles the Hydraulic Module and Controller were replaced at my expense. Now at 153K miles the lights are coming on again. This is a habitual problem with this generation of RAM trucks and it's a safety issue for the following reasons: 1) the ABS system stops working 2) the traction control system stops working 3) the cruise control is unexpectedly turned off, which is a major concern, and 4) the 4x4 quits working which in the right circumstances can cause an accident.
