Dodge Avenger abs comes on

Filed Mar 16, 2026 · Brakes · AK

The anti lock brake system malfunctioned, the ABS, ESP/BAS and traction control lights are on. It kicked a code C2116 which reads ABS pump motor supply low voltage. I took it to a brake shop and they said the pump motor needs replaces but I would have to find one since they don’t stock it. I call several Dodge dealers and was told the part is discontinued and no longer available. I searched on line for one and the only one available is a used one on eBay. Also if you research this it is a common malfunction on this year and other Dodge/ Chrysler vehicles. Anti lock brakes will not work until this is fixed and no parts available . Thank you

The vehicle has intermittent (brake) (ABS) and (Traction control) lights. I took the vehicle to Airport dodge in Orlando Florida. They advised the ABS module and pump are faulty however there are no repairs available at this time. The most concerning was they advised to continue to drive the vehicle without ABS.

Beginning in September 2023, my parking brake light would periodically light up even when the parking brake was not engaged. At the time, I didn't think much of it. This persisted until the middle of January 2024. Beginning in mid January 2024, my parking brake light, traction control light, and ABS light were all lit up on my dashboard. I took my vehicle into my mechanic on January 30, 2024 and they diagnosed it as an ABS internal module failure. They said they were unable to make the repair and said that I would need to take it into a Dodge dealership. I then took it to my local Dodge dealership on February 2, 2024 and they also diagnosed the problem as an ABS internal module failure. The dealership told me that the particular module needed was under "Engineer Review" at Chrysler. They said that any ABS module currently on the market for my vehicle were considered "defective" and that I would need to wait for the Engineer Review to be completed in order to receive a new, correctly working ABS module. I was told by both my regular mechanic, as well as the dealership, that my car was dangerous to drive in its current condition. I was told by both the dealership and a Dodge customer service representative that this Engineer Review would be completed in April 2024. It is now June 10, 2024 and the Review still has not been completed and I am still without a working ABS module for my vehicle. I am unwilling to put my safety, my child's safety, and the safety of other drivers at risk by continuing to drive a dangerous vehicle. Because of this, I have not been able to drive my vehicle since the beginning of February. After continuous calls and emails to Dodge, I was told the Review would be completed between 4/20/24-4/25/24. I later found out this estimated completion date was incorrect. I have been given no new timeline of when this Engineer Review is to be completed and when I will be receiving a new part.

When I am driving the battery light will go off along with the ABS and the brake light. I just bought the car about a month and a half ago.

Tl* the contact owns a 2008 dodge avenger. The contact stated that the ABS sensor illuminated and the brakes failed shortly afterwards. The contact also stated that the brakes took longer than usual to stop the vehicle. Furthermore, there was a major fuel tank leak and the odor of fuel was noticed outside the vehicle. Lastly, the check engine indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and planned to be repaired once the contact ordered the correct fuel tank straps. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified. The failure mileage was 68,000.

I have a 2012 dodge avenger that has had an issue with the heater for a while now. It blows cold air on the passenger side and warm air on the drivers, cold in the middle. We have replaced the blend door actuator ABS this only got rid of the clicking noise, it did not fix the heat issue. I have read several of the same complaints and would love to know why the issue has not been dealt with yet and why it's not recalled.
