2017 Ram 2500 Brakes Problems

“June 26th 2019 my truck felt like it shifted into 4wd on its own, later that day I lost ABS, traction control and cruise control. It went to the dealership where it took 3 days to diagnose. Was informed that ABS pump and ABS control module need to be replaced and the part is not currently available. Further research of internet forums shows this is a known problem and does not appear to be addressed properly. I am still waiting for my truck to be repaired and there is a warranty on it. …”

“My ABS traction control light came on intermittently prior to 36,000 miles. Took to dealer and they could not find problem. With 42,600 miles lights have come on and set a code. Ram has said they will not fix the problem. A computer has failed. This is a safety issue and should be corrected by Ram. I don't know if this is a continuing problem in these trucks or if faulty parts were placed on mine. I want this issue duly noted. The failed parts are the ABS module and the hydraulic control unit. …”

“After approximately 8k miles my 2017 Ram 2500 intermittently had the traction control light and ABS light illuminate. At first it would only temporarily flicker and chime, bventually the code/lights remained in the system. When this occurs cruise control is not available. I'm not sure if the ABS or traction control systems operate. After multiple visits to the dealership the issue was located and the ABS module and hydraulic motor control were replaced. Everything has operated properly until the last couple weeks, which is 2 years and 3 months later, with 19.8k miles. …”

“My 2017 Ram 2500 had 55k miles when I got a dashboard warning indicating that service of my electronic braking system was needed. I also got warning indicators for ABS and traction control. I had poor braking, no traction control and no cruise control when these warning lights were lit. The dealer diagnosed and replaced the ABS hydraulic control unit (hcu), costing me $750. My research reveals that this is a common problem with this truck at various levels of mileage, and Ram/FCA has restricted the distribution of the hcus in recognition of this problem. …”

“For the past month, I have had intermittent displays of service electronic braking system and service antilock brake system . When this occurs, the cruise control becomes nonoperational. A check of the internet shows that these problems are widely experienced by dodge Ram owners. The display comes on whether sitting or driving.”
