ABS module has been replaced twice on this truck. The latest was two weeks ago. However the problem of service ABS and service electronic braking messages still appear randomly, killing the cruise control and dinging. The dealership who took 2 months to get the ABS module this time stated that the Hydraulic Control Module was now bad and back ordered forever so I will have to live with it, apparently forever by the sound of it. So now I-€™m cruising around in a 15k lb bucket truck with no sign of getting it repaired in sight without buying another for 150k.

At 95;000 miles abs and traction control lights going on and off on and off, now lights stays on brakes lock up when stopping quickly. Speed control no longer works due to this problem. After a google search I found lots of the same problems with other years and model-€™s having the Cummins 6.7 diesel motors.The ABS module fails, but you can-€™t replace the module, you have to replace the whole abs unit which is very costly
