Consumer Description

The abs system has failed on my truck and many more possibly by a dealer defect and no recall as of now. When the abs warning light comes on it also puts up a warning light for the electronic braking system and you aren’t allowed after that to set the cruise. Anytime you hit a bump or turn the wheels or just randomly at any given time the lights come up on the dash and it chimes which will drive anyone nuts. With the electronic braking system not functioning properly could potentially lock the brakes up on the truck in my opinion knowing how it functions. Which in my opinion is a safety hazard. Also I might add that taking my vehicle to my local dealership is a complete waste of time as the diesel mechanic up there is terrible at his job. He has misdiagnosed two of my trucks and I believe he had something to do with a transmission going out in one. He “fixed” it then 3000 miles later the transmission completely destroyed itself which made me have to trade the truck in. Also the traction control system does not function when the abs light is on. In doing research I have found many many people with this same problem.
