2018 RAM 3500- Cottageville, SC
Truck gets a service electronic braking check engine light and disables traction control as well as the cruise control. The braking becomes disabled at random times. Taken the unit to the dealership just to be told the part has been backordered for over 2 years and that they cannot sell me the HBU to repair it. They said they could remove the unit and have it shipped off to be remanufactured but my truck will be inop for min 2 weeks. Was told the part I needed 68143491AB

The ABS light and traction control light randomly come on. I loose breaking power from time to time. It is a known issue with these vehicles. Unfortunately there is no way to fix it at this time. All of the dealerships near me have the part on back order and have for well over 6 months. It’s not very fun to drive around with no reliable ABS and the possibility the brakes may fail. I do not drive my truck basically at all anymore. It is a 2018 with 44000 miles. There is no reason the ABS should have failed. The vehicle has been inspected and I was told that a new module was needed. The problem is, I can’t get the module. This needs to be fixed

2018 RAM 3500- Ross, TX
In August 22 I replace the hydraulic control unit on this truck to fix the intermittent abs and traction control message and ding on my evic and now in October 23 I am getting the same intermittent messages again. I paid and did the repair back in august myself but now seems to be a delay in getting the parts. I bought the truck in December 2017 so if you average the miles the second HCU only has approximately 8000 miles on it. These parts should last longer than that. The truck has only 47000 total miles on it.

Dashboard ABS and Traction Control Lights come on intermittently with message to service breaking system. The lights are accompanied by loud audio alarms. The audio alarms usually cycle through a minimum of three times; sometime five. The dashboard ABS and Traction lights reset by themselves. Scanner codes identify an electrical problem with the ABS HCU and/or hydraulic pump. Dealership maintenance and service departments advise new parts are not available but to check back frequently for supply updates. If/when repair parts become available, this repair will be the second time I have endured this problem. Also, I have been able to reset the above dashboard alerts and audio alarms without the aid of Bidirectional scanner by cycling my windows down and up. So, I’m not sure if I have an ABS/TC problem or a wiring problem.

2018 RAM 3500- Junction City, KS
At around 50,000 miles my truck began to turn off cruise control while driving, ding, and the ABS ,as well as, the traction control light came on. It goes on and off repeatedly while driving. This is incredibly distracting and quite possibly dangerous for braking and handling. The local dealership is aware and have stated that even though it is still under warranty, there is no available part to fix it.
