Adaptive cruise control problems by model year
What owners say
2014 Ram 1500 5.7L, approximately 90,000 miles. Around October 2025, the ABS warning light, BRAKE warning light, and traction control light illuminated on the dash. Diagnosis shows ABS control module internal electronic failure (fault code C2200, lost communication with ABS module). This failure disables the anti-lock braking system, electronic stability/traction control, trailer brake controller, and cruise control. Failure was intermittent at first, occurring more often in warm weather, and has now become permanent. The vehicle cannot be repaired: replacement module Mopar part 68228991AD is discontinued and on national backorder, with dealers reporting the part has been under manufacturer engineering review for an extended period. Independent module rebuild services are unable to obtain required components. The vehicle is driven daily with these safety systems inoperative and no repair path available.

The ABS module failed. Replacement parts are no longer being manufactured. My traction control, ABS, and cruise control no longer function as a result. Also getting warnings that the trailer braking system has a failure - these warnings started after the ABS module failed.
I had my ABS Light and Brake light come on in August 2023. My cruise control and my brake controller would no longer work. Took it to a dealer for repairs and they diagnosed it as needing a ABS Contol Modular. It has been on back order since that time. I was first told 3 mo, then 6 mo. Etc. I visited the dealership last week and they told me the part will no longer be manufactured. I have a low mileage vehicle that is worthless to trade in or sell because of this brake issue. The part number is 68228991AD ABS Control Modular.
My cruise control is not working right,sometimes it don't turn on, but when it does, there are times that it will automatically shut off while driving., or it won't let me cancel it

There was a previous recall for my vehicle July 21, 2015 R36 15V•459. The recall was handled at the dealership to fix the recall. But now I'm experiencing the exact symptoms of Recall R36. Steering Wheel: •Ghost right blinker - When engaged, all lights are on and in working condition and blink at a normal rate on the outside of the vehicle. •No menu navigation •No cruise control •Can't control radio •Can't control phone calls •No working horn •Active airbag light Symptoms are constant all angles of the steering wheel. There is no noise coming from the steering column. Airbag light is on all the time. Yes, the vehicle is available for inspection upon request. My safety is put at risk for having a failed horn, I cannot alert others. And with the airbag light on, either the airbag can spontaneously deploy causing an accident or if I'm in an accident, they won't deploy at all. If I can't access my menu, I'm unable to see any vehicle notifications or alerts for my engine, transmission, and safety systems, including Perform Service reminders, tire pressure warnings, oil life percentage, low oil pressure and potential emissions or electrical issues. No, it has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center yet. No, it has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. First appeared February 2, 2026

The ABS Module, part 68228991AD in the 2014 Ram 1500 has failed on my truck and in a large number of vehicles i have found on Ram Truck forums. The failure of this part is impacting multiple systems in my truck and and has made those systems inoperable including ABS, stability control, trailer brake control, cruise control, and potentially others. I don't understand why a recall for this problem has not been issued. To add, the parts have been completely unavailable from Mopar or any supplier. I've had this problem since June 2025 and no part availability anywhere and my son has been driving the vehicle because we have no other choice but to drive this vehicle. Please advise soonest about what can be done to help remedy this situation, I am very concerned about the safety of those driving this vehicle with this problem. Thank you
