Consumer Description
We bought this truck from a dealer in March of 2023. We were never informed by the dealer that the truck had this issue. ABS light and traction control lights come on & stay on for periods of time. Sometimes lights come on & off repeatedly while driving along with chime on & off. When lights come on, there is no cruise control available to use. I took it to the dealer we purchased from over a year ago and was told there was no solution for the problem. They said it was under an engineering review. No parts were available for a fix. I have documentation from the previous owner that this was occurring when he owned it in April of 2022. Since we pull trailers with equipment and also a large fifth wheel camper, we feel very unsafe when the ABS braking system and the traction control goes out while driving this vehicle. It is available for inspection upon request. When will there be a repair for this?
