Abs and traction control lights going off and on. Stating abs need serviced. Took to a auto maintenance and told it need anew pump and module would not be available until august 24,2024. In january 2021hydraulic unit was replaced now need to replace it again
Abs keeps going in and out due to a faulty abs module control. Thousands of people are having this issue and no parts are being made because they are under engineering review. Meanwhile we are not safe driving with faulty abs modules that the manufacturer is fully aware of.
My trucks transmission experienced a complete failure, it is currently at the dealership awaiting parts and repair the failure renders the truck without any forward power almost immediately with only reverse left functioning, we were fortunate that it broke down in a residential neighborhood and not the freeway. The truck was towed to the local dealership, they tore down the transmission and confirmed a k1 snap ring failure and that it would be covered under wtty. I got a malfunction indicator light a few days prior then a message on the dash "4 wheel drive system temporarily unavailable" about 10 miles before complete failure. Csn 71a appears to have been issued and sent to some truck owners to advise snap ring replacement as a preventative measure, however my truck was not included in the csn campaign, not sure why

On 3/21/2024 while traveling hcu/abs control module failed prompting intermittent dash lights and disabling abs/tcs and cruise control. This was the first time this occurred and came without warning creating a very dangerous situation. As a result, hile traveling down the interstate during a rain event the truck lost traction at high speed (65mph in 70mph zone). This was instantaneous under medium throttle when the abs/hcu abs module suddenly disengaged allowing wheel spin on wet pavement. This caused the truck to briefly turn sideways on the freeway until intervened by myself the driver. This could have been very dangerous as there were numerous other vehicles in lanes on either side. No collision resulted. The vehicle has good tires and is in good condition outside of this failure. Upon investigation, i have found this to be very common on these trucks yrs 17-18. When i called the manufacturer they stated they are back ordered as it is a common failure and frequently require replacement.
The contact owns a 2019 ram 1500. The contact stated that while her husband was driving at approximately 40 mph the vehicle was shaking and the vehicle was making an abnormal loud grinding noise. The husband stated that the abs and esc warning lights illuminated. The contact's husband pulled over, turned the vehicle off and had it towed to a dealer. The local dealer diagnosed and determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated that prior to the failure the vehicle was not able to shift into reverse (r) for more than a year. The contact stated that the day the vehicle was picked up from the dealer, on the trip back to the residence the transmission began to make loud abnormal grinding noises, the vehicle was shaking and jolting into the next gear. The contact stated that her husband had the vehicle towed to an independent mechanic. The independent mechanic diagnosed the vehicle and performed repairs on the transmission which allowed the vehicle to move forward. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 76,000.
The steering rod from the steering wheel came out of the knuckle under the dash lucky i was going about 30 miles and hour it could have been 2 people killed. I having to pay $1,200 to fix the problem but i think this is something that dodge needs to help me on cause this could have been a lot worst. I have 68,000 miles on it. I missed a telephone pole by 6 inches.
Abs brake module fails and the vehicle looses its abs braking capability. Other functions are affected as well, anti skid and cruise control. Major safety issue! This vehicle is now in need of 3rd module in under 100,000 miles. This is unacceptable stellantis/chysler corporation has full knowledge of this component weakness and has not improved or recalled this part. Thank you
Was driving stopped at stop sign. Went to turn left and message popped up stating " service power steering" truck lost power steering had to break and reverse due to almost hitting pole and not being able to turn left. Put truck in park. Turned truck off turned truck back on and power steering message still was there. No prior warnings prior to driving truck. No other issues prior to power steering failure. My safety was at risk where i could of crashed vehicle into pole. My husband called dealer and is awaiting a call back. As of 4/16 no call back yet. Vehicle is sitting in driveway now due to not being able to drive safely with it with power steering loss.
