Chrysler (fca Us Llc)
Safety Issue:
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling various Dodge, Chrysler, and RAM vehicles equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. A list of the affected trailer models is available at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V824-0103.pdf.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
Service Electronic Braking System and Service ABS system lights are flashing intermittently and the ABS and traction control lights are on. Dealer has indicated the hydraulic control unit is bad and needs replaced but they no longer manufacture that part and there are no aftermarket offerings so vehicle cannot be repaired until parts are located. In the meantime these vehicles affected have no anti-lock brakes and the cruise control randomly shuts off if the ABS light flashes while cruise is enabled.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
ABS Hydraulic Control Unit and Electronic Control Unit Failure. ABS MIL and Traction MIL began turning ON and OFF intermittently during daily driving, sometimes turning ON and OFF over 50 times during a 20-mile drive. Lights up the dash and sounds a beep to inform the driver, while displaying a message on the dashboard screen. Again, this occurs every time the alarm activates. No dealership was able to get me in for an appointment when the issue first began. Took into the dealership today for diagnosis. The technician immediately knew the problem when I said the ABS light was blinking randomly and noted that he has seen this with all 2018 RAM 2500s. The first safety issue is regarding the loss of situational awareness while driving caused by distracting alarm systems. The second safety issue is that ABS WILL NOT work if the alarm is active, effectively setting up the driver to be placed into a dangerous situation during inclement weather conditions where ABS might mean life or death during a hard braking situation. The ABS system is only covered under a basic warranty with Dodge (3yr or 36K). The ABS system failed around 36K, but due to dealership waitlists, I was not able to be seen until 41K. The cost for total ABS HCU and control unit replacement is around $1500.

39,125 miles - 2018 RAM 2500 6.4L (purchased new in 2019), intermittent ABS / traction control light and alarm dinging! Dealership diagnosed it as the ABS / hydraulic control unit with code C0020-07. Many reports of this same issue can be found online from RAM owners having this exact issue, most are just out of the warranty. Low or backorder status of the replacement parts also suggests an issue. ABS function and cruise control are disabled when the error occurs and no way to know when or how long the issue and alarm dinging will last. This is a major safety problem that should be a recall.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
ABS and Traction Control warning light keeps intermittently coming on and then a message saying that the Electric Brake system needs serviced. This has happened to my 2018 RAM at 17,000 miles. Dealer replaced ABS module under warranty and problem was solved. Now I am at 35,000 miles and the problem is back. Same exact issue. This needs to be a recall item ASAP and this seems to be a VERY common problem with these trucks. This could be very dangerous as these trucks are made for towing heavy loads and losing your anti-lock braking capabilities could be catastrophic to you or anyone else on the road.

Dealer replaced ABS module under warranty and problem was solved. Now I am at 35,000 miles and the problem is back. Same exact issue. This needs to be a recall item ASAP and this seems to be a VERY common problem with these trucks. This could be very dangerous as these trucks are made for towing heavy loads and losing your anti-lock braking capabilities could be catastrophic to you or anyone else on the road.
Additional Notes:
ABS and Traction Control warning light keeps intermittently coming on and then a message saying that the Electric Brake system needs serviced. This has happened to my 2018 RAM at 17,000 miles.

Defect Description:
STEERING
Potential Consequences:
The truck recently started displaying "Service Antilock Brake System" periodically on the information panel. Sometimes it comes on periodically while driving, sometimes only once, sometimes every minute or so and sometimes does not come on at all. We have not had this inspected but looking online appears to be a common problem in these trucks that should be considered a recall. Truck only has 50K miles when this started but this appears to start as soon as 3K miles on some other trucks. This should be a recall as the ABS system is a safety feature that should not be malfunctioning. A second issue that started shortly before this one is the steering wheel shakes when making turns and going over bumps. The truck was serviced for the drag link recall and this started shortly after that and is getting worse with time. Not sure if related to the ABS problem since they started pretty close together or if this is related to the 4WD as it shakes when turning similar to when the 4WD is selected but in this case it is not. This is also a safety issue as you could lose steering.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
Vehicle has 21000 miles currently. Service ABS warning and anti skid disabled warning are intermittently flashing on cluster repeatedly. Brakes do appear to work but ABS is not I believe based on towing a heavy loaded trailer when coming to a quick stop in the rain on an irregular surface. Luckily the trailer has dual axle electric brakes and I was able to come to a stop safely. I have pulled the DTC code which is C002001 and states general electrical failure. Found reported Star case [XXX] in NHTSA website that was written in 2020. Have not been able to get into a dealer for service and they appear booked out to early to mid October. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
