Potential Risk:
Being able to shift the transmission without pushing the brake pedal and/or without a key in the ignition can increase the risk of an unintended vehicle rollaway that may result in personal injury or a crash.

Defect Description:

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

The warning lights for the ABS/electrical braking system module has come on with no issue with the vehicle's braking system.This causes the cruise control and anti-skid devices not to work. Upon trying to order a new module through tbe dealership, I have received nothing except the excuse that the release date for this module keeps changing. This has been happening since September of 2023. My concern is that if at some point there is an issue with my braking system I will not know due to the malfunction of the module. I have contacted Chrysler to no avail. They say the part is no longer being manufactured and I will have to obtain one through aftermarket makers. I have researched and checked on my own and with help from mechanics and this part is not made/available through aftermarket makers. Chrysler will not release the parts already made stating they do not want to provide me with a possible defective product. My argument is the product they have supplied in my vehicle is defective and they will not make it good by supplying a quality replacement. Therefore, they are putting their customers safety/lives at risk.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

On Thursday July 18, 2024 at approximately 5:00pm. I was on my way home from picking my son up from daycare when the screen turned black and my shift knob light (above D letter) began blinking and about 10 seconds later the truck shut off completely. The key wasn’t able to be removed from the ignition. About five minutes later, I was able to turn the key and turn the truck back on.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

My service ABS Brakes light came on over a month ago. I took it into my service center and they told me they're unable to repair it, because the ABS module needed for it is not available. I took it into the local Dodge Ram dealership today and they told me the ABS module has been on backorder since Sept. 2023. They said they were supposed to have them in hand this past May, then this August. He read me a bulletin that stated the part is now under engineering review and will likely NOT be released until later this year. I live in Virginia, and we have state inspections. This vehicle is used every day to get me to and from work. It's a 2016. With the red brake light on in the dash, I can't get it inspected. I'm now paying for a vehicle I can't drive, can't get repaired, and have no available resources to get another car. Please help!
