Consumer Description

Service ABS Electronic Braking System Message, ABS as well as Traction Control light intermittently coming on and shutting off, Sometimes staying illuminated awhile then going back to coming on Intermittently. Took to shop and ran diagnostic trouble codes on truck. The trouble codes saying ABS/HCU Pump Module Electrical Failure. Recommended fix is to replace ABS Pump Module. I am aware of the class action lawsuit and this same issue on most all 2017-2018 Ram 2500 trucks. The problem I am presented with now is, The ABS Pump Module is on national back order which is making it extremely difficult to find a replacement. I am now left with a truck that is unsafe to drive as a father and husband due to the vehicles Antilocking Brake System not functioning at all as well as the Traction Control System not functioning at all. Due to these issues when I am forced to operate the truck for commute to and from work and day to day purposes I am now putting my family, myself and everyone on the road at risk as there is no immediate solution to the problem at hand. This is wildly unacceptable just as well as it is wrong in every aspect to be put in the position that I could possibly injure or kill another family on the road simply because this issue is going through political channels and I have not other option but to continue to operate the vehicle for day to day life.
