ABS Module failure. Replaced ABS module with brand new Mopar replacement. ABS module still will not communicate with system. No traction control, cruise control, multiple lights in dash.
I received TWO safety recalls that my dealer has never fixed. One for the ABS System R61/the federal safety agency 15V‑675 and one for the beauty cover R32/the federal safety agency 15V‑431. I was supposed to be contacted when the parts were available and never was. My beauty cover has come off and my ABS system randomly turns off. I am not sure who reported that these repairs for the recalls were completed but they were not. I would like them to be completed before my car either catches fire OR my ABS gives out and I get in an accident.
