ABS hydraulic control unit: Warning light and audible "ding" on the dashboard notes there is an issue with the ABS system. After taking this truck to several RAM service centers, the service tech says that it is part of a recall and that parts are not available. I cannot find any such recall, only a class action lawsuit. I haven't noticed a lack of breaking capabilities although I also have not engaged the breaks to the maximum which is where the ABS system would normally engage. Warnings are now constant while the truck is running.

ABS/Electronic brake indicator light on continuous, no Dodge repair facility cannot seem to fix issue. This should be a recall item.

- Sacramento, CA, USA

Vehicle keeps getting ABS control valve general power fault. Code scanned is C002001. Indications in vehicle are 1. Cruise control suddenly disengages if in use. 2. Instrument warnings of "ABS Control Failure" and "Electronic Braking System Failure" continue flashing for 10 seconds or sometimes constantly. Keeps happening to me on long trips away from home. Never locally. Gives the driver no idea if system is safe to drive or not. RAM forums on line are full of these complaints. I believe a recall is in order.

My ABS/TRACTION CONTROL Electrical warning is coming on and shuts my cruise off. When driving at highway speeds and towing, this has caused me to swerve some and come close to be rear ended. I had the system replaced at 48000 miles for the problem and it is doing it again at 103000 miles. I can tap on the electrical motor on the system and get another week of use without warnings

The ABS Light is on and my ABS braking system on my 2018 RAM 2500 doesn't work. I drive on icy roads for at least 6 months out of the year. I need to have the ABS working on my vehicle so I can stop on icy or wet roads and not cause an accident. I scanned the code C0020-01(ABS Pump Motor Control - General Electrical Failure) using my Innova 6100P scan tool. The problem first occurred on [XXX]. RAM wants over $1,000 to replace the defective component. Dishman Dodge/Ram in Spokane, WA has confirmed this problem with their scan tool. My 2018 RAM 2500 is available for inspection upon request.

2018 Ram 2500 diesel truck, ABS braking system was intermittent and now has stopped working all together affecting the cruise control and the ability to stop without locking up the brakes all together. This has started a couple of years ago and the dealer said everyone is having the problem and parts are hard to get.

ABS Service light flashes on after rainy days and or going over a bumpy road.

- Elmira , CA, USA

The service electronic brake system light flashes intermittently, along with the traction control light and ABS light. Seems to occur when for no reason.

- Sperry, OK, USA

ABS and Traction control light indicators on dash appeared intermittently. After diagnosing from the dealership, it is advised to changed the Antilock Brake System module. However, the dealership advised there is a block and that they must first change the Hydraulic control unit, although they say it is perfectly fine. While we have not had an accident (luckily) it appears there is an ongoing investigation and multiple lawsuits against Dodge/RAM/Chrysler for this systemic problem of faulty ABS on 2017-2018 Ram 2500/3500. My 2018 RAM 2500 only has 36,000 miles. This failure is premature and potentially very dangerous. The dealer could not advise whether my truck was safe to drive or not even if the indicator lights were off or on. I have not yet had the HCU replacement completed, however will have it completed next week. I am submitting this incident report as a pro-active report as this is a serious safety issue and one that is systemic across too many 2017-2018 Ram 2500. The manufacture is not allowing replacement of the ABS Module until the HCU is repaired which is an additional (Double) cost to the consumer.

While driving while it was raining earlier this year, the abs/ anti lock braking system service initiated on the dashboard. It now acitivates intermittenly. During my investigation into the issue I've found that this is a persistent problem with the Ram 2500 /2018 year model and newer and that there is a class action lawsuit that has been filed. I used a OBD11 reader and it threw a code ( C0020-01 )

The ABS light and traction control light comes on and off over and over again. When it is on, its seems to not work as well on slick surfaces. I have seen that there are numerous complaints of the same thing on these trucks. I have been told it is not under warranty by a dealer. Only 21,000 miles. I purchased the truck in 2019. I put a code reader on the truck and it came up with C0020-01. 1. ABS Pump Motor Control 2. Recirculation pump- General Electrical Failure. The truck is avalible for inspection.

- Joshua, TX, USA

The ABS control module on my truck goes in and out from working to not working constantly dinging. Because of the ABS control module being defective it makes the traction control faulty as well which I have almost gotten in numerous car accidents at this point living in Florida with the rain and sliding all over the place. I have tried researching this and it is a huge problem with the 2018 RAM 2500 trucks. I have tried to reach out to dealerships and there is no solutions they just say that the part is on back order for months and there is nothing that can be done at this time due to the overwhelming demand with people experiencing the same issue.

- New Port Richey, FL, USA

ABS and traction control light and electronic braking systems warning lights are on. The parts are not being produced by the manufacturer per them.

Manufacturer is unresponsive to owners and dealers. There are currently 2 class action lawsuits on this matter.
