2017 Ram 2500 Brakes

Vehicle has less than 22000 miles. ABS controller replaced at 7000 miles then again at 14000 miles and is now needing to be replaced again.

Abs module in limp mode with 45k miles think they have a problem by the looks of all the people on forums that have the same issue. No ABS while this is faulting and they have no fix got to love it I feel so safe now driving around.

2017 Ram 2500 the Antilock braking system failed resulting in erratic brake pedal at times difficult to stop. bought replacement parts online, had them installed, had same issue. then took it to the local dealer, they have had the truck for a week now, replaced all brakes, rotors, pads, master cylinder, still same issue, they think it's the ABS pump that I bought at the dealer two weeks ago. same with the module. now I am hearing possibly late June for good parts. I can't drive the truck in its current condition, I am spending $ 300.00 a week for a rental. this is unbelievable that they can't provide safe parts for the trucks. just plain nuts, please help

C0020-01 code. ABS pump. Truck only has 45,390 miles on it. Been replaced once under warranty and faulty again. Of course now out of warranty. Seems to be a common problem affecting over 400,000 trucks. Why is there no recall? RAM 2017

I have been getting the "service electronic braking system" warning light, and when I brought the vehicle to the dealership for repairs back in November I was told that the parts needed to fix this known issue are backordered for many months. Checked again today and was told probably not available until July at the earliest. Upon researching this issue, I learned that this failure is common to 2017 Ram 2500 trucks. I need to haul some heavy loads with a trailer, and am concerned that this failure of the braking system is putting me at risk for an accident.

I bought my truck brand new in 2017. Two weeks ago my truck started intermittently flashing a brake warning as well as an audible alert. The screen says “service electronic braking system”. Also, when this happens, it shuts off my cruise control. Worrying me as the braking system is CRITICAL for daily use.

Abs module and hcu failure. Must be replaced AGAIN.

I bought the truck new in 2017. in July of 2019 I got a Traction control ABS warning light. I took it to the dealer and they told me that the HCU system needed replaced. They performed the repair under warranty. In July of 2021 I got the same warning and again took the vehicle to the dealer and they told me I had to have the repair performed again. Once again they performed the same repair, after some resistance on their part. Now in Nov of 2023, I am having the same warning light and they will not repair the problem now with out substantial repair cost. I feel like there is some sort of a safety issue going on with this brake system and it needs to be looked into.

HCU and ABS module have failed multiple times. The first time was repaired under warranty, the second failure there is a part backorder and I could not get it replaced. My truck is now out of warranty and the manufacturer is now pushing part availability put to Feb 2024. This is clearly defective equipment but the manufacturer will not address if and will not order recalls and replacement.

ABS and traction control lights come on.

Intermittent service electronic brake system message/ABS system service required message on dashboard. Truck has less than 32,000 miles on it.

A Hydraulic Control Unit malfunction resulting in multiple warning lamps flashing on and off intermittently - including the ABS, the EBS, the Traction Control, and the Cruise Control.

ABS warning and traction control lights will stay on

ABS Traction control lights

ABS light and traction control lights display, as well as flashing messages “Service ABS System” and “Service Electronic Braking System” when weather is wet or when I hit a bump or pothole in the road. Dealer states the ABS module and hydraulic control unit needs replaced and that the ABS system could lock up during emergency braking and suggested not driving. Parts are backordered until July 2024.

My abs module has a fault code on my dash with the light staying on. I went to my dealership to get the part replaced for my safety and after ordering one and paying for it in December 2023 they are now finding out their is none available and will not be available to order until June 2024 ,with no guarantee they will be available then What is one to do under these circumstances the is something the company needs to address NOW!!! Not whenever they feel like it. From what I’ve read online this seems to be a major problem that many people that own these vehicles are dealing with Hopefully you help me with this situation Thanks [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

On approximately 7/20/2021 service anti lock brakes and service traction control warning lights and beeper were activated. The warranty had just expired due to date not mileage. Upon investigating on line I found this was a wide spread problem with no recall at this time. The fix is to replace antilock brake pump at a cost of 800 to 1,500 $. Dodge could not tell me if the part was upgraded or they are installing a newer version. They also would require a 250.00 scan after I supplied them a code on my scanner that identifies the same problem and a code. Now the warning lights go on and off on rough roads but mostly stays lit. I don’t know how much of a safety issue this is but apparently I don’t have traction control when the light is lit. As of a couple months ago the parts were not available.

I have an ABS light on and a traction control light. I understand this is a problem with 2017 Ram 2500 and the 2018 Ram 2500. It is my understanding from the dealer it will cost over $1,000.00 for the repair so that my brakes will work properly. Vehicle has less than 87,000 miles on it. I feel this should be brought to your attention. This is a safety issue for all affected vehicles. Ram knows about the issue and has failed to address the problem. I feel this should be corrected immediately. This is a safety issue for the motoring public.

In July of 2020 my 2017 RAM 2500 ABS and Service Electronic Brakes warning lights began illuminating intermittently. My vehicle had 12,343 miles on the odometer at the time and was three years old. There was no noticeable change to the brake performance. The vehicle was brought into a RAM dealer for service which found code C0020-01 ABS Pump Motor Control-General Electrical Failure present with Starcase #S2005000004 instructing the replacement of the hydraulic control unit. This corrected the issue until August of 2024 when the above warning lights began illuminating again, intermittently, but in increasing frequency. The issue was diagnosed by a RAM dealer with the same code as above (C0020-1) and the recommendation to again replace the hydraulic control unit. My vehicle had 30,901 miles on the odometer at the time. The total for the service in 2020 was $984.89 and in 2024 $698.46 for the second replacement of a component within 5 years. Understanding that there was no recall ever issued, the ABS and Stability/ Traction control systems are designed to provide safety to vehicle occupants in heavy braking or loss of traction situations. While there was no noticeable difference in brake function, the presumption is that if there are warning lights activated, there is an unknown issue with the brake system which could result in brake failure. Further, the requirement to replace the same part twice in 30,000 miles at a total cost of $1,683.35 does not seem reasonable. Many owners have posted similar issues with this component with no apparent resolution other than to continue to replace the component when it fails. The component can be inspected, however it is currently installed on my vehicle.

Antilock Brake System Warning and Traction Control lights on dash with associated warning chime. Was also given the warning that 4X4 is not available. The warning occurred on a return multi-day trip. The warning interrupted cruise control causing it to turn off and unable to reengage. After a brief fuel stop and the trip continued the warnings disappeared after a few miles. The warnings then reappeared with the associated disengagement on the cruise control. A few more stops were made and the warnings persisted never going out after restart. Reading forums on the internet seems to indicate this is a persistent issue with numerous reports the the NTSB. The Vehicle has approximately 75,000 mile and was place in service in early 2018.

"CHECK ABS SYSTEM" LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY COMES ON/OFF. WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON EVERY TIME I HIT THE BRAKES IT CHIMES. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH 2017/2018 RAM 2500/3500 TRUCKS AND THAT THE ABS MODULE/PUMP NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BUT THEY HAVE BEEN ON BACK ORDER FOR OVER A YEAR. LOOKING ON THE INTERNET THERE ARE LOADS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE AND YET THERE IS NO RECALL. THE DEALER SAYS THAT I SHOULD "BE CAREFUL" DRIVING THE TRUCK AS THE ABS NOT WORKING COULD INCREASE STOPPING DISTANCE.

The abs module started throwing a code and had to be replaced in 2022 which cost me around 900.00 dollars and the same module has malfunctioned again in 2023. This seems to be a very common problem with 2017 and 2018 ram 2500 trucks. This module should be recalled for parts and labor.

ABS and Traction Control warning. Cruise control will not work either. This started at 25K miles, but the truck was out of warranty because of time. I purchased an ABS Module from Ram and installed it Dec 27, 2023 and I will have to take it to the dealer to program it.

my truck has 130,000 miles on it currently. At approximately 37,000 miles the ABS and Stability systems stopped working due to a faulty Hydraulic pump. I paid $800 to have the pump and control module replaced at the dealership. The brakes worked normally for approximately 20,000 miles. Around 60,000 miles the ABS and Stability systems stopped working again with the same fault codes as before. The pump has failed again due to a stuck brush in the motor. repair parts are not available and I've been forced to continue driving my vehicle with reduced braking and handling performance for the last 90,000 miles. The manufacture needs to get it together and produce parts that will not fail and they need to be replaced at their cost.

Abs lights keep coming on and going off while driving. New abs pump and module. Dealer says just put another one on at 1500 a time or more. Countless other people are having same issue
