VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
Problem #1- I had to replace the ABS module and HCU on this truck at about 10k miles. (this was completed under warranty). Then at 50k miles truck was diagnosed with the same problem. I had to pay out of pocket for this repair. I ordered these parts from the dealer in November 2021, and they did not get me in until August 19, 2023. I had to pay ($1152.33). This is very dangerous when it has this error it causes the service sabitrac and service abs pop up on the display nonstop with no way to clear it. It also chimes every time. it is very distracting. while these service lights are on, I had no cruise control or traction control. Problem # 2 Transmission over drive failed. I had to replace transmission and transfer case. This makes for an unsafe vehicle that could leave me stranded on the side of the road. this repair cost me ($7,500). Failed at 67,675 miles. Problem # 3 turbo actuator failed and had to replace at 68,565 miles this cost me ($1750). this is an extended warranty on the 2015 model year pickups. Should be all across the board for all trucks using the same design/parts. In total on just repairs under 70k miles I have been forced to spend ($10,402.33). This truck is not road safe at all and I should be reimbursed for all my money I had to spend. At the bare minimum i should be compensated for all my down time plus repairs.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
The anti-lock and traction control light and service light came on shortly after purchase, this happened while towing a 10,000lb camper in the N. GA mountains. this was a challenging situation with that much weight pushing the truck and the brakes weren't working properly. After getting a code reader, I found out the HCU has been listed as a service problem. You try to find the part and there is a hold on releasing the part because the manufacture is having problems with the updated part, and they don't even offer the original part because of the defect on the original part, (part # 68143491AA) The replacement part is (68143491AB). Thankfully I grew up driving vehicles without modern ABS , If my wife would have been driving, or an inexperienced driver, this could have ended in a very, very bad situation. Why isn't there a safety recall on this vehicle? Why should the consumer have to pay for a KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE. just look at the posts on the internet. Even worse, you can't get the part to fix, every dealer that has the part listed says the part will not be released until February, and not until April for the public. ( but the website says they are in stock) You call to verify that the part is on hand and they said not until spring.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
I have had Abs alarm going off on my truck for 3 months. The dealerships claim there is a nationwide back order on the ABS pump motor control part to fix the problem . They have told me the first shipment is expected in Feb 2024. This is unacceptable. This is a safety feature that is faulty. Also , unacceptable. Please advise why this is not being addressed and I cannot afford to park my vehicle until February 2024 and even then they claim they don’t know how many will be sent to them on that shipment. I have paid a mechanic on my own to try and clean up the wires and components but this didn’t fix it. What can I do about this?

The service light for a electronic Brake System as well as the light for Electronic ABS system started blinking on and off numerous times. I called the dealer to make an appointment and had to wait 2 months to get it in for service. When I got it in for service they told me the issue. They said it will be covered under my extended warranty. However, the part is in Engineering hold and is not available for ordering untill February 22, 2024. I need my truck. Can't wait 5 months for it to be ordered and shipped. That is if they release for orders in the 21st. Now my truck is setting in the dealer back lot, unsafe to drive they have told me. This all started while driving. Fortunately I didn't have an accident or and incident before getting it to the dealership.
