Defect Description:
SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
When driving, the Service Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) light would intermittently cut on and off and would disable the ABS system and Traction Control system. This would happen at any speed. I scheduled an appointment at Pearson Chrysler Dodge Jeep in Richmond, Virginia for 11/22/2022. I was told the ABS Control Module was defective and the part had to be ordered. The dealership advised that this equipment has malfunctioned in many 2017 Ram 2500 trucks and that the part was on back order until late January 2023. They also advised me that if I drove the truck when the light was on I would NOT have anti-lock brakes or traction control. I have called multiple times to inquire about the status of my part order to get the safety issue fixed. I was told in January that the part still wasn’t in and that the timeframe was pushed out to March. I called again today (3/17/2023) and was told the part now was in the process of switching suppliers and that they did not know if or when my part will be available. This is a huge safety issue. My truck has been mostly parked since before Thanksgiving and it’s now almost April. RAM as a manufacturer is creating a large safety issue for anyone with this same issue. I have not been able to get my truck serviced properly with OEM parts due to their negligence. This is a warranty claim and my contract will expire in 2 months and I am not sure if this will be covered once or if the part ever arrives. Please assist in getting this issue resolved. I do a lot of towing and depend on this truck to be safe for me and other drivers and RAM is preventing this from happening. My truck is still mostly parked and cannot be trusted on long trips. My truck is also due for state inspection in June and this warning light will cause my truck to be rejected and then I will not be able to drive it at all.

Potential Consequences:
I have dash lights going on and off for the ABS and traction control. This is very intermitted. On two occasions I have experienced times where I had to slam on the brakes to avoid an accident. Both times the ABS failed to work causing me to come to near collision with another vehicle. One of the times this caused me to go off into a ditch. This was with slick roads and snow covered in areas. Have also had several times the truck would steer out of control with no traction aid. I am constantly losing speed control using cruise control. It will work for a bit and then turn off when the ABS and traction control lights come on.

Potential Consequences:
ABS light and alarm come on and goes off at random intervals. This issue was repaired before on 03/04/2020 and now the issue is reoccurring when rain or hight humidity. The original ABS code on the system was C0020-01 (ABS pump motor control - general failure). The HCU part #68143491AA was replaced and ABS module the issue corrected. My concern is that the ABS is disabled on the vehicle once the condition occurs and could result in loss of control during a hard or panic stop. I pull a 7,000 lb trailer and am concerned that if a hard stop occurs the truck could start sliding and cause the truck and the traile to lose control.

Defect Description:
SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
ABS light and alarm come on and goes off at random intervals. This issue was repaired before on 10/06/2020 and now the issue is reoccurring. The original ABS code on the system was C0020-01 (ABS pump motor control - general failure). The HCU part #68143491AA was replaced and the issue corrected. My concern is that the ABS is disabled on the vehicle once the condition occurs and could result in loss of control during a hard or panic stop. I pull a 12,000 lb camper and am concerned that if a hard stop occurs the truck could start sliding and cause the truck and the camper to lose control.

Potential Consequences:
ABS / Traction Control lights began intermittently turning on. After roughly 5k miles, the lights are on all the time. The truck is throwing code C0020-01. From looking around online, this is certainly not a unique situation. The fact that there is an updated HCU (P/N 68143491AB) to be released later this year, shows that this is a known issue.
