My abs system is not working the ETC is not working was told this is because of the abs pump and abs computer. Most safety components related to brakes not working. There are over a thousand complaints to Chrysler about these trucks and still no recall. Please help.
The "Service Electronic Braking System" warning comes on and off intermittently with an annoying "DING" while driving. It never stays on and always just comes on, DING, and goes away but repeatedly. It will eventually go away after driving a bit but then comes back unexpectedly. This also disables the Cruise Control. There are tons of complaints throughout the RAM forums and I see a lot of complaints filed here on NHTSA. The dealer is obviously very aware of the problem as the replacement parts are not available except for months of waiting, if at all. The dealership has not only stated the part is a long lead item and on back-order but it will be $1200 to $1600 for replacement and that part may fail as well!

The abs control module and HCU are faulty. No parts have been available for a fix. I have now been driving a truck in the north with no ABS, 4 wheel drive, cruise control or traction control. This truck is a hazard to everyone on the road but with no parts it-??s hard to fix it. I only have one vehicle. Tons of people have the same issue and nothing is being done. Ram won-??t do anything, stallantis wont do anything. It-??s just crazy
The service electronic brake light and traction control light keeps illuminating periodically while driving. The code was read and ELECTRICAL FAILURE C0020-01-ABS PUMP MOTOR CONTROL was received. This is the second time this occurred and the first one was replaced under warranty.
For the last 3 years the ABS and traction control warning lights come on and off intermittently. This occures every time the truck is driven. I have replaced the ABS control module and the Hydraulic pump unit with new OEM parts and this issue keeps coming back. Driving and towing heavy loads this truck is extremely dangerous (without a functioning ABS system). A recall is urgently needed!!!
Getting the Service Electronic Brake System, Traction Control, and Anti-lock Brake System. First noticed these alarms a couple years ago but they cleared by themselves. Sometime this 2024 Spring, around 70k miles these alarms started again. This time the alarms are nuisance going on and off multiple time a minute all by itself. Cruise control won-??t work when alarms are on. When I checked forums, seems like there is a problem with these modules. The supply of the parts is a problem also. I ordered the parts from Mopar and after I paid for the parts and received an order number. The next day Mopar cancelled my order tell me to go to the dealer. Seems like Mopar is monopolizing these parts.
2018 Dodge 2500 w 75K miles. "Service ABS" and "Service Electronic Braking System" warning lights coming on intermittently for appx last 1.5K miles. When this happens, it disengages the cruise control when set, or keeps it from being engaged when unset. Noted yesterday that Braking performance is now lessened- slightly increased stopping distance noted when pulling an appx 3K lb trailer (no trailer brakes), which i regularly tow. Brake fluid levels good, brake shoes/calipers/rotors in very good shape.
2018 Ram 2500 with 6.7L Cummins Diesel The ABS warning light and traction control warning lights come on and go off constantly along with a message to check the braking system. The problem is intermittent. It might happen once in a trip or it might have 50 times in a trip, but it always happens. Losing traction control and ABS braking puts me and my passengers in a severe risk of injury as the vehicle will not be able to be maneuvered or stopped in an emergency situation or during dangerous road conditions. A search of online forums has revealed hundreds of people reporting the same issues with their vehicle.
17427 miles 68143491aa control anti-lock brake system replaced 68347098ab module anti-lock brake system replaced code found c0021-01 replacement of the hcu and module. 12/30/2019 At 80,460 mi same code and information appeared again. 12/23/2022 No ABS brakes /no speed control continues currently 111,400 miles an indicator lights stay on.
ABS and traction control lights came on. Brought to my mechanic and they spoke with Dodge who started they put a freeze on selling the parts and currently have no fix.
ABS Traction Control Failure. Dash lights come on ABS and Traction Control do not work after that. This started as an intermittent issue and now the lights are on all the time and there is no longer any ABS or Traction Control on the truck which I feel is a major safety issue for this truck especially when pulling a loaded trailer.
Like most other owners I too have the annoying ABS failure and traction control lights dinging on and off constantly. So no traction control or ABS. You also lose cruise control We are paying for a recall as the dealers want $2000 to $2500
On 8/10/2024 at 3.10 PM while traveling 68 mph on an interstate, the vehicle started displaying Service Electronic Brake System and Antilock Brake Failure warnings. This also shut off the cruise control system, causing a sudden and unexpected loss of forward momentum. The warnings would reset and then come on randomly while travelling.
