SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
In July of 2020 the service alarm went off for my electronic braking system and ABS. I took it to the local RAM dealership and they replaced the Hydraulic Control Unit for the ABS System (not covered under warranty). Now, in August of 2023 I am again having the same service alarm for the electronic braking system and ABS sporatically occur. I have not yet taken it back to the dealership, but in my search on YOUTUBE, this appears to be a systemic problem that the manufacturer is not addressing.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
The ABS light came on and went off intermittently, which also disabled the cruise control when the light was on. Eventually the light stayed on. Most recently the start button quit working properly. We have had it at the dealership twice with no results. We have talked to the dealership many times and been getting the run around. The latest was today and was told the parts are back ordered until 2024. They have not given us any paperwork because we do not have to pay. We also have and had the radio (main computer) replaced a couple of times and the screen still blinks randomly.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
My truck has had a recall done on the ABS system. After the recall I had another problem with the ABS system where the ABS and traction control warning lights and chime came on and then off. This condition was very distracting while driving!! It eventually stayed on all the time. My cruise control did not work and I imagine the ABS braking system didn't work. All the time the dealer was saying there were no parts. I found another dealer and had to wait a few weeks and they replaced the ABS HCU and hydraulic unit. This was in 2022. It is now 9/13/23 and it is starting again!!! I am going to take it back to the dealer and hope they finally will resolve the problem. ABS brakes have saved many lifes. This problem needs to be fixed. There are countless concerns on the internet of this problem with RAM trucks, apparently 2017 and 2018 are the most affected. Please put some fire under FCA/RAM and help get this problem repaired.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
ABS/traction control sensor issue. I believe it to be a faulty sensor or sensor connection issue which is causing my service brake light to chime and light up at every bump in the road. While driving even just a short distance my service brake light/alert chime goes on and off sometimes every 2-3 seconds and while driving on the freeway my cruise control disengages every time the brake warning pops up. Upon researching this issue I've found thousands of Dodge Ram owners complaining of the exact same issues and dealerships are suggesting they know nothing about this problem.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
ABS/traction control sensor issue. I believe it to be a faulty sensor or sensor connection issue which is causing my service brake light to chime and light up at every bump in the road. While driving even just a short distance my service brake light/alert chime goes on and off sometimes every 2-3 seconds and while driving on the freeway my cruise control disengages every time the brake warning pops up. Upon researching this issue I've found thousands of Dodge Ram owners complaining of the exact same issues and dealerships are suggesting they know nothing about this problem.
