Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
2017 Ram 2500. 24,000 miles While driving at any speed, warning lights and chime intermittently come on. Display reads "Service Electronic Braking System" and "Service ABS". ABS and Traction Control lights also illuminate on the dash. Sometimes the chime will come on and off so fast that the truck is constantly chiming which is very. Sometimes the warning lights stay illuminated. Sometimes they go away. Sometimes they flash on a off rapidly. The ABS module and Hydraulic control unit have already been replaced under warranty at 15,000 miles. I have been waiting for the parts to repair for over 8 months (since August 2022) with a promised part mid April. Upon contacting servicing dealer Daimler Chrysler has put this part under “engineering review” AGAIN with a new ETA of sometime in August 2023 for part availability. Safety concern is improper braking while ABS component is active or constantly going in and out during normal driving or while towing under all road conditions.

Ram just replaces the same faulty parts and 2 years later it happens again.

Potential Consequences:
My 2017 RAM 2500 (VIN-HG607103) at 83,015 miles began throwing a code of P2609 which is an air intake heater issue. I found my air intake relay was not working. I replaced it and all good, until the code returned a little over a week later. I then tested the relay and found it good and began to research more to learn that I had the "Bolt of Death" occurring. The bolt on my grid heater plate was broken, however it had not dropped into my engine cylinder. Luckly it was fused to the heater grid plate still. If it had fell off, it would fallen into a cyclinder damaging it and the piston, blowing the engine. There are recalls on new trucks with this engine however not the 2017s yet.

Defect Description:
SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
Anti-lock brakes do not work on my 2017 Ram 2500 diesel and haven't for over a year and a half. Light constantly flashes on dash with alarm. I brought it to the dealership, and they said the "Hydraulic Control Unit" is faulty but was told Ram is not even making the part. In Michigan winters, anti-lock brakes are a huge safety issue. My truck is the diesel version weighing in at 7,000 lbs. Trying to stop in the winter is a huge problem. Even if I sell the truck, it's still going to be a problem for whoever buys it. If you Google it, you will find numerous other Ram pickups for 2017 & 2018 with the same problem. I don't understand why brake issues are not a recall.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
Truck lost abs, traction control, and cruise control at 34000 miles. On 12/30/19 the truck was repaired. Now at 61000 miles the truck lost its abs, traction control, and cruise control in a winter storm hauling a trailer. The original part has been superseded with a new part both of which are unavailable.This truck is only used to tow a 15000lb camper and a gooseneck equipment trailer. Mopar is unwilling to do anything to rectify this problem which is very unsafe. I was able to locate the part in Nevada but due to Mopars "managed allocation" they would not sell it to someone in Ohio.

Potential Consequences:
"Service ABS," "Service Electronic Breaking System," and "Traction Control" caution lights illuminate on vehicle during driving. Started with intermittent illumination. Took vehicle to dealer and was told that ABS pump failed, but no parts are available to repair. Service advisor said it was ok to drive, that the brakes will function without ABS system. Brake performance is diminished. There is no pumping sensation when I apply brakes hard.
