4.8M Vehicles Affected
Recall Date: May 17, 2018
Safety Issue:

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2014-2018 Dodge Journey, Charger and Durango, RAM 2500, 3500, 3500 Cab Chassis (more than 10,000lb), 4500 Cab Chassis and 5500 Cab Chassis, Jeep Cherokee and Grand Cherokee and Chrysler 300, 2014-2019 RAM 1500, 2015-2018 Dodge Challenger, 2015-2017 Chrysler 200, 2016-2018 RAM 3500 Cab Chassis (less than 10,000 lb), 2017-2018 Chrysler Pacifica and 2018 Jeep Wrangler vehicles. These vehicles are being recalled to address a defect that could prevent the cruise control system from disengaging. If, when using cruise control, there is a short circuit within the vehicle's wiring, the driver may not be able to shut off the cruise control either by depressing the brake pedal or manually turning the system off once it has been engaged, resulting in either the vehicle maintaining its current speed or possibly accelerating.

Potential Risk:

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the software, and perform a software flash on the engine or powertrain control module, free of charge. The recall began June 4, 2018. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Note: Owners are advised to stop using cruise control until the software update has been performed. In the event that cruise control cannot be disengaged while driving, owners should firmly and steadily apply the brakes and shift the transmission to neutral, placing the vehicle in park once it has stopped.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

Continued intermittent ABS light and "service ABS System" message with annoying / distracting chime, Loss of ABS and traction control, I have had several instances when the braking of the truck has been affected and could have easily caused an accident. Between the braking issues and the constant distraction of the vehicle chiming and alerting of a system issue, this needs to be looked into. the number of complaints does not show the actual number of people that are having the same issues. I have talked with several other owners that have had the same issue and the dealership repaired them but not reporting anything.

Corrective Action:

Continued intermittent ABS light and "service ABS System" message with annoying / distracting chime, Loss of ABS and traction control, I have had several instances when the braking of the truck has been affected and could have easily caused an accident. Between the braking issues and the constant distraction of the vehicle chiming and alerting of a system issue, this needs to be looked into. the number of complaints does not show the actual number of people that are having the same issues. I have talked with several other owners that have had the same issue and the dealership repaired them but not reporting anything.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

The ABS and traction control lights come on intermittently on the dash and the message to check the brake system comes on alot. The ABS system doesn't work when the lights are on and they come on alot. This I believe is a safety issue since it came with an ABS system to keep from locking up the brakes when having to brake hard to avoid a collision.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

When I was returning from a trip across town my "service electronic brake system " came on with a chime and then went out. This was followed by check "service brake system" which also went out. They stayed off for a few days and then did it again. This condition got more and more frequent. I took it to the dealer and was told that it needed a ABS control module. I felt this was very early for an ABS failure with only 30762 miles on the unit. I now have 48845 miles and the ABS light is coming on and off ( with it's chime ) even when I sit at a traffic light not moving and going down the road it is almost constant. I have read in the Ram forums that this is a common issue. I believe this to be a safety issue. Why have ABS if it's not going to work.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

Starting in May 2023 mu truck has experience intermittent ABS System errors and Service Electronic Braking System service messages. At many times the errors will repeatedly clear and reoccur, sometimes as frequently as once every second or two. Sometimes the error messages come on and remain so for long periods. When in an error state, the ABS system is not functional and the vehicle will not allow activation of cruise control. My RAM dealer has advised that, despite the fact that this issue has been ongoing with RAM trucks for over years, there are no parts available and ETA for a redesigned part has just been delayed 6 months to June 2024. This is a faulty safety system.

There is no fix at this time as Ram is looking into the problem and will not supply any fixes until further investigation. The light and chime goes off all the time and it also cancels my cruise and anti slip. There needs to be a repair for this.
