  • 110,000 miles
The contact owns a 2018 Ram 3500. The contact stated that the ABS and traction control warning lights were intermittently illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed, and it was determined that the ABS and air bag control unit had failed. The air bag control unit was replaced, and the brake fluid was refilled. The contact then became aware of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V896000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic) and wanted to know if the VIN was included in the recall. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and confirmed that the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer had opened a case for reimbursement which had since been closed. The manufacturer referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was 110,000.
