SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
The anti lock brake system has failed on my 2018 Ram 2500. This has been confirmed by the dealer as well as an independent shop. First case was hauling a trailer full of wood, a car pulled out in front of me, I slammed the brake and the anti skid failed, brakes locked up. The only reason I didn’t completely lose control is my trailer brakes worked and stopped the swerve. Since that day the ABS light has been intermittent and is becoming more consistent. Because the light is intermittent the other symptoms are intermittent to include cruise control and the most critical; traction control. This problem caused me to lose control on black ice in Hastings MI about a month ago and swerve into oncoming traffic. No accident resulted. This is a known problem on this truck and there is a technical service bulletin published as well as a class action law suit. Because of this myself, as well as other owners, are reluctant to pay thousands to fix it because we are awaiting action from your office to drive a recall. I recommend action to implement a recall before someone is killed due to this faulty system. ABS light is illuminated as well as Service Anti Lock Brake System Message. Systems lost are anti lock brakes, traction control, cruise control.

Abs/traction control lights keep pooping up on the dash. The dealer has changed the abs module and it didn’t last long. The truck has 28k miles. It definitely can cause an accident because I haul heavy loads a lot. If the abs brakes doesn’t work correctly I will crash into another vehicle. And it dings/ beeps every time I push the brakes or every time I hit a bump or something. I hope Ram can come up with a recall to fix this issue soon.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
Got in my truck one day and my ABS and Traction Control Lights both came on, as well as a notification in my central dash advising to service electronic brake system. At first the lights where intermittent and random. I could start the truck and the lights would be off. Apply the brakes to put in gear and the lights would come on. Drive down the driveway and a bump would turn them back on and pressing the brakes would turn them off. Now the lights stay on permanently. The ABS error code I got was C002001, or ABS pump general electric failure. I called several local mechanic shops and they reported to me that this is a known issue, parts are on backorder. I called the dealership, was advised the same with the addition that Dodge/Fiat, not only new about the issue, but changed upgraded the part and gave me the new part number, which is also on back order. Knowing this vehicle is a diesel and is designed for towing, which is why I bought it, to pull my trailers and equipment, the brake system is vital to stopping the vehicle for my safety and everyone around on the road. If this is a know issue across the nation, this needs to be addressed.

The ABS error code I got was C002001, or ABS pump general electric failure. I called several local mechanic shops and they reported to me that this is a known issue, parts are on backorder. I called the dealership, was advised the same with the addition that Dodge/Fiat, not only new about the issue, but changed upgraded the part and gave me the new part number, which is also on back order. Knowing this vehicle is a diesel and is designed for towing, which is why I bought it, to pull my trailers and equipment, the brake system is vital to stopping the vehicle for my safety and everyone around on the road. If this is a know issue across the nation, this needs to be addressed.

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Got in my truck one day and my ABS and Traction Control Lights both came on, as well as a notification in my central dash advising to service electronic brake system. At first the lights where intermittent and random. I could start the truck and the lights would be off. Apply the brakes to put in gear and the lights would come on. Drive down the driveway and a bump would turn them back on and pressing the brakes would turn them off. Now the lights stay on permanently.

Defect Description:
SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
The ABS light goes on and the warning bell starts dinging. This is a safety problem as you don't know if the ABS is working or not. Dealers don't seem to think there is a problem with this. I looked online at [XXX] . And there are quite a few examples of this problem as well as what dealers are not doing. Going to this web site look for "2018 Ram, ABS and Traction Control lights. This seems like an ongoing problem that no one is looking into. One guy took his truck in, and they said they couldn't get parts to fix it for five months, but the truck was fine to drive. 11 blocks from the dealer he rear ended someone because the ABS was malfunctioning. Therefore, this is a safety problem and should be looked into by Ram and a recall issued for repairs. And when the ABS light is on you cannot use cruise control INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
