NHTSA Complaint #11174872 — 2009 DODGE RAM 1500

ABS SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT AND ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT ON THE DASH ARE ON AND THE VECHICLE BRAKING SYSTEM IS CAUSING A SITUATION WHERE THE BRAKES ARE TRYING TO STOP THE VEHICLE WHEN GOING DOWN THE ROAD WITHOUT ANY INPUT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. WHEN DRIVING, THE ABS SYSTEM LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF AT A RAPID PACE, AND EACH TIME THE VEHICLES REAR BRAKES ARE SLOWING DOWN THE VEHICLE. I HAD THE SYSTEM CHECKED BY 2 DIFFERENT AUTO REPAIR COMPANIES AND EACH SAID THE COMPUTER CODES INDICATED AN ABS CONTROL MODULE FAILURE AND NEEDS REPLACED. IN THE NORTHERN WINTER CLIMATE WHERE I LIVE, I'M CONCERNED ABOUT LOSS OF CONTROL ON ICY ROADS. I AM VERY CAREFUL TO HAVE BOTH HANDS ON THE WHEEL BUT IT STILL CAUSES A 'JERKY ' FEEL WHEN DRIVING.
