2018 RAM 2500 Back Over Prevention Warnings Problems

My 2018 Ram 2500 has 85,000 miles currently. At about 80,000 miles I got the ABS and Traction control warning lights along with dash messages to check the ABS amd electronic braking systems. I am a heavy equipment mechanic and thus checked the systems myself with a scan tool and other test equipment. I found that the ABS module has an internal electrical failure resulting in power not being supplied to the ABS pump/electric motor. I have verified that the pump works and has about a 48ohm resistance. If supplied with 12v and ground to the motor it will come on. Circuit testing from the electrical plug to the contacts for the motor one pin has contact and the other is an open circuit. I also have one seized plunger in the hydraulic control unit that is actuator by the motors eccentric lobe on the output shaft. After doing some...

ABS light turned on on the dash. Next a warning that the park sense, ABS, four wheel drive, and Cruise were disabled. Had Diagnostics run and found that the vehicle ABS is logging C0020-01 and C0020-16. Case number S2005000004 from STAR showing this to be a known issue. Contacted every dealership within 100 mile range and the needed part of an ABS HCU is unavailable until at least February 2024. Contacted Stellantis Customer care and they will not assist unless the vehicle receives an official diagnostic from a dealership that will cost me at least $150 and they will not assist with replacing the part or even supplying the part so there was no gain from having the diagnostic officially done at a RAM dealership. Well known issue per every dealership and many online forums. No assistance from RAM/Stellantis at all.

Reporting back-up camera glitches and/or blanking mirror screen! This can cause serious damage or injury to persons or property and even fatalities.

Following a Uconnect update in March 2023 the vehicle exhibited the following errors: rear parking sensors failed, ABS brake failure, cruise control failure. ABS module was replaced 5/5/23 at cost to me of $529.86 by RAM dealer. Per dealer, ABS system will not function as ABS motor (HCU) must also be replaced and is not available pending "engineering review" in late August. Vehicle is like new with 23,000 miles on it. The vehicle is no longer operating as designed by Dodge RAM causing risk to me and others. This is a known issue to the manufacturer and they have failed to issue a recall and correct the problem on this vehicle.

The ABS/HCU (Hydraulic Control Unit) failed again. This will be the 3rd HCU installed in my vehicle. The previous repair was completed 10 days ago. I have an open case with Stellantis, since the parts are on extreme backorder (3+ Months). My safety is at risk, because when this component fails, it directly impacts the ABS Brakes, Traction Control, Cruise Control, Parking Assistance, etc. The dealer has confirmed the issue. I am unsure what diagnostics the dealer has performed on the failed part. There are multiple warning lamps associate with BRAKE, ABS, Traction Control, Cruise Control, Parking Assist, Service Electronic Breaking System, etc.

The Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU) has failed for the second time on the truck which causes the ABS, traction control, parking sensors and cruise control all to fail, along with the electrical baking system for pulling trailers. This is the second time this has failed. The first was replaced at the dealership on 07/22/2021 when the truck had 29,983 miles on it. It has failed again with 42,125 miles on it, and the dealership will not cover it as it is not listed as a warranty item.

The ABS and traction control service lights and alarm come on and off and shuts off cruise control. stops coming on for days at a time then happens again. Been told brakes could lock up and trailer brakes may not work

Code for right rear wheel speed sensor came on. Resulting in no abs,traction control, 4x4,or parking sensors. I bought new part from dealer had mechanic change it. Reflash abs and still on. Went off briefly for 5 seconds came back on. I've realized it's it's common problem. Resulting in the abs module needing replaced. But it's only a temporary fix.
