ABS and traction control lights came on. The dealer said that it was the control module. It has been replaced. There were no braking problems but concerned that it would eventually be a problem.
I have replaced the ABS/HCU 2 times as of 1/1/2024. I am currently waiting for the 3rd one. The ABS system is unreliable and dangerous during the time of waiting for parts availability. The dealer diagnosed the vehicle in 10/2023 and has been unable to get parts to repair the problem.
Abs and traction control light going off and on causing abs and traction control to be disabled. Safety issue being able to control vehicle if had to get on brakes hard Problem was able to be reproduced by the dealer and this has been replaced once before on the truck while under warranty, Component has been inspected by dealer and found faulty on November 16 2023 but informed it would be late January 2024 before they would have parts, now it is late January and they say parts are in the development phase and would be late June or July before they might have the parts. Concern is have a 2018 truck with just over 32000 miles on it that has had the same issue twice and they can not fix, Advised by dealer and ram customer service that they advise not to drive truck, but they will not loan a truck during this time but could rent one at my expense
I get a warning that flashes on the dash multiple times every time I drive stating that I need to service the electronic braking system. This warning is also accompanied by the traction control and ABS warning lights. The warning and lights do not stay illuminated and flash on and off several times during the course of even a short drive and the warning bell sounds every time as well. At minimum this is a huge distraction when driving and even worse I do not know if I can trust the brakes in the event of an emergency stop. I looked at fixing the issue by replacing the ABS and HCU units, but those parts are back ordered well in to 2024 now. Reading on various forums, this problem seems to be pretty common, but as far as I know no recall has been issued by Chrysler.
Code C0020-01 appeared. ABS pump motor control- General electrical failure. Problem occurred in heavy snow storm. Traction control would not work, anti-lock brake system would not function. Brakes locked up causing vehicle to skid.

Electrical warning for electronic ABS Braking System and Module to include traction control. Initial evaluation at Dealership on 10/25/2023 Since then, the parts have been order, but unavailable through the dealer or through the Customer Care team at Dodge. Multiple phone calls, emails, etc., and still the parts have no estimated delivery. No solution has been offered by the Dealer or by Dodge and the truck is unsafe to drive.
Since incident, the messages continue to appear in my dash. "Service Antilock Brake System" and "Service Electronic Braking System", flashing on and off erratically. I talk directly to Mopar which is overseas, and they tell me it isn't covered because its under the basic warranty which has expired. I asked them to send me the documentation so I can see it in writing and they said they cannot send it or show it to me and that only they can see this information. I am concerned that they are not being honest with the warranty coverage because my five year/100,000 expires in June 2024; and ironically they said the ABS part isn't available until June.
The truck developed a warning light for ABS / Stabilitrak needing to be serviced. Ram dealership replaced an ABS Pump, but the issue came right back. They are now saying it needs a new control module at great expense, but that they are unavailable currently. Delivery on the part has been pushed back continuously over the last 12 months, still no parts. This issue causes a regular intermittent digging and warning light in the cab, disables ABS, disables Stability Control, Disables Traction Control, and Disables Speed Control (Cruise Control). This issue has been ongoing for 8+ months at this time with no developments from Ram and the vehicle in an unsafe and compromised condition.
Service anti lock braking system and electronic brake system code constantly coming on. This is an apparent safety issue that Dodge needs to resolve. After much research, I-??ve discovered that there are many, many complaints of 2018 Ram truck owners having the same problems. Thanks for all your assistance.
Electronic Braking system failure affecting the ABS system, Traction control, and cruise control. It puts the safety of everyone in the vehicle and on the road at risk because the ABS and cruise control will fail causing an unexpected adverse conditional that can lead to an accident. This is a known problem for RAM and their is no fix at this time other than making the customer pay out of pocket for the broken parts to be replaced with the same parts that will fail shortly after. There needs to be a recall and a permanent fix from RAM
Brakes when depressed do not pull equal. No cruise control. 4 wheel drive is not working properly. Traction control not functioning properly Have brought vehicle to a garage. Abs/hcu unit is the problem.
I-??m receiving two codes; Service Antilock Brake System and Service Electronic Braking System. I met with my mechanic this morning and he said that this is a very common problem with the 2018 Ram 2500. Since this is a reoccurring safety issue i feel that Dodge should resolve not the owner. Should I get in an accident from a break failure who is responsible?
Radio keeps going out and turning off, and then comes back on with different stations. Next is my outside mirrors on both side, heater to mirrors don't come on at all to defrost
ABS and Traction control has been lost and have created a safety risk especially during inclement weather. The ABS pump or the ABS control Module is faulty in multiple years Ram vehicles. I believe based on forums there is a recall issue with these parts.
ABS and Traction control lights keep going on and off, this still continues and it looks like Ram knows this is a safety issue. Dealers have no parts for repairs
The HCU in which controls your ABS and Traction control will malfunction while driving down the road when this happens you have no ABS, traction control or cruise controls. The dealer part is unavailable through the dealer due them saying that they are reviewing it. This is a major safety concern due to the fact if you are traveling and it malfunctions and need to stop quickly you cannot or if it malfunctions and have cruise control set to a speed it will slow you down and can cause an accident. When vehicle was carried to dealer and asked what to do the dealer just said to drive it and don-??t follow to close to anyone, that is not the answer that needs to be given.
The display in the center console keeps asking if i want to update the clock. Nothing stops it from constantly popping up-??going off-?? popping up. Truck only has 25000 miles
