    - Orange, CA

    Logging a second complaint for the brake hydraulic control unit that is already recognized by FCA as a defect that needs to be replaced. I am two years into this failed unit and continue to be told by the dealer and manufacturer's customer service that the replacement part is not available and they do not have a delivery date for this part. In the last two years I have had (4) near collisions as a result of no anti-lock brakes and no traction control. Additionally the cruise control is not active when this part fails and as a long-distance driver this is fatiguing. The contant dinging of the warning light and bell is extremely irritating. The reference number for FCA's recall is C4B/NHTSA 24V-896.
