Abs turns off and on by itself due to faulty abs system causing the truck to lose all abs and traction control features

- Covington, LA, USA

ABS and traction control lights coming on intermittently. I tow a camper with this and understand this is a known problem which is continuing to happen without any successful resolution.

I have intermittent Service Electronic Braking System and Service Antilock Brake System warning light. It started about 1 year ago at about 72000 miles. The diagnostic tool lists a C002001 fault (ABS Pump Motor Control General Electrical Failure. When the fault is active, I have no Antilock Brake, no cruise control and no traction control. I have no taken the problem to the dealership due to initial cost of diagnostics that they charge. Parts and labor are not covered under warranty.

Started experiencing the ABS and Traction Control lights coming on, sometimes momentarily and very intermittently, sometimes (but less frequently) coming on for long periods of time. The frequency of these events has been increasing. A scan of the vehicle indicates I am receiving these this code... C0020-01 - ABS Pump Motor Control - General Electrical Failure This seems to be a very common complaint on my truck's make, model, and year. The result is I lose cruise control functionality, four-wheel drive, and seemingly the use of anti-lock breaks and traction control. It is very irritating as the warning lights and alarms often go on-off many times a minute, often going on for hours.

Abs and traction control light come on. Then off. Some days every 5 minutes. Some days once a day. Alarms sound. ABS and cruise control won-??t work. Dealer reported over 10k truck have issue. Parts are on backorder for 6 months. I was told july 2024 for part. There should be a recall. So many trucks with same problem.

ABS light and traction control light illuminated on dash. Service both comes up on info screen. Wheels will skid when braking in wet weather, rain, snow and or ice. Will lose traction when departing from a stop in wet weather, or starting from a stop on a hill. Safety of myself and any or all occupants (wife, grandkids, friends) including other vehicles and their occupants around me whenever this truck is operated. Problem has been reproduced warning lights have been on constantly for over one year and are on still today. Refuse to take it to the dealer due to the fact I have to pay for diagnostics on a safety issue they refuse to recognize as a problem, and then they want to charge me over 1K to fix with no guarantee of solving the problem. Warning lamps are on chimes from dash Lights came on 8/1/2023 and remain on to this day.

I bought a 2018 ram 2500 last year and ever since driving it off the lot the abs light constantly turns off and on and recently the abs modulator has completely failed at 115,000 miles. It affects the cruise control and braising ability of the vehicle and I cannot use the truck properly or safely due to the constant abs issues.

The ABS system begins to fault and flash warnings intermittently while driving down the highway or any road. This could cause the ABS system to fail on an event it is needed to avoid a crash or object in the roadway. Research on the internet shows this is a common issue with this year and model and there is a class action suit for it.

Intermittent alerts related to service ABS light on the dash along with Traction Control light. Seems to disable ABS when the fault light comes on, also disables cruise control during driving when the service alerts flash on the dash. Constant beeping of the alert is a major distraction. Truck has 26,000 miles in it. Dealership said ABS module and HCU need to be replaced but parts are on back order until August but are not positive when parts will be available. Why is this not a recall?

- Sheridan, AR, USA

The ABS and anti skid lights on the dash come on and off sporadically. The pump and module have been replaced. The problem did not occur for awhile. Now it has started over again. It seems harder to brake since the problem has started.

- Williamsburg, VA, USA

The HCM for the ABS system has failed at about 50K miles. I took it to the dealer and they replaced the HCM for $850 and it worked for about 25 miles and the ABS light came on again. I took it back to the dealer and they said it must be a bad module and they are on back order and would let me know when they get one. That was about 3 months ago and I still haven't heard from them. I know this has happened with a lot of other Rams and they need to have a recall for it. When it goes out the cruise control also stops working. If I have to make a sudden stop on a wet road, my brakes will lock, endangering myself and others.

Service abs ABS traction control dash lights on and off

The ABS Service Antilock Brake System messages comes on intermittently and chimes every 2-3 seconds. Some days the message and chime does not come on, but it is usually the day after the truck has been turned off for a period of time. The issue started on 16 March 2024, I still have the issue today, and it happens at any speed. After doing some research, I found that many of the same year and model truck has had the issue, and it seems to be the Antilock brake module Electronic Control Unit and or Hydraulic Control Unit. I contacted the dealership to see if I can get the issue repaired under my extended warranty, but the part is on back order. The vehicle is available for inspection, but I haven't had a chance to take it to the dealership as of yet.

ABS and Traction Control warning light always on.

Starting at about 28,000 miles the ABS & Traction Control lights would come on, Disabling the Anti-lock braking system. During slick road conditions the truck would often skid when braking, especially when towing. The anti-lock brakes didn't work. This also triggered the check Engine light, Disabling the Cruise Control. All of this would occur randomly and often with no pattern. Prior to reaching 36,000 miles on the odometer, I went to Andy Mohr Chrysler Dodge Jeep for diagnostics. Service Department reported a code for internal ABS Module Failure. I then returned to the Dealership at 39,249 miles on [XXX] for recall on drag link replacement in steering and for repair of traction control system. Steering system was repaired but parts were on national back-order for ABS Repair. They delivered truck on [XXX] but kept repair order open with no charge at that time. Received call from dealership saying parts had arrived for ABS system for repair on [XXX]. Repairs were completed and I picked truck up on [XXX]. The invoice total was $1862.27, as they had charged for the steering recall also. After a month of back and forth with the service department and then speaking to the General Manager, they refunded $187.31 on 3/4/2024 meaning the ABS repair was $1674.96. I'm still unsure if that is the correct amount. Repair order # [XXX]. Truck is now working properly when braking.

When taking off initially with the truck sometimes within the first 30 seconds of moving there is two yellow lights that come on the dash, while the center text window displays service brake system. The stored MIL code is C0020-01. Also when going over bumps in the road the message will also return. Sometimes it stays on, and I do not have the ability to use cruise control. One time I was driving on the freeway and the surface was wet, as it had been raining. I needed to slow down rapidly because there was a sudden change in traffic. I went to hit the brakes and the truck had locked up the wheels, and then after the same lights and text were displayed.

ABS / Traction control disabled dash lights flashing.

Our antisocial brake modele has been out since November 2023.The light keeps coming on. We had it checked with a diagnostic check twice and it was confirmed. The dealer cannot get the part and we have tried to escalate the problem through Chrysler, they refuse to do so. The mechanics can not tell us it is safe to drive so we are barely driving the truck. We are afraid we won't have brakes and if we are in an accident, it wouldn't be covered. They can't get the part and told us that they had more than 4,000 on backorder from our dealership. This is not covered and we have to pay over $450 just for the part and they can't even get it in.
