My vehicle has a malfunction ABS module and is causing error codes. The OEM Mopar part 68228991AD has been discontinued for years. Getting a replacement has become impossible. I have called the company and they said they are looking into the issue. This has been going on for a very long time. Mopar needs to either sell the item, or issue a recall, if the item is faulty. My ABS is a risk and cause an accident in bad weather. PLEASE HELP ME GET MY REPLACEMENT PART so I can safely drive my truck.

Truck dashboard is showing warning/hazard lamps for Automatic Braking (ABS), Emergency Breaking, and trailer breaking. The cruise control is also not working. Error code C2200 is registered. I've taken it to a RAM dealer and Firestone. Both say that the ABS module (68228991AB) needs to be replaced, but parts are not available. This problem was initially identified May 2024. I call every month to see if the part are available and they say to call back next month. RAM Trucks (aka Stellantis) instructed all dealers and parts suppliers to return all new versions of the part.

ABS control unit and ABS pump failure, repaired and more failures. Repair is to keep buying new expensive parts that will fail again. This ABS system is poorly designed or the feedback control component is poorly designed. It doesn't work properly, repairing it is not answer, parts are back ordered for months or years AND IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE, HIGH SPEED SAFETY, WHERE PEOPLE DIE DUE TO NOT EMERGENCY STOPPING CORRECTLY.

Dear Sir or Madame, The purpose of the communication calls into question New Jersey Turnpike Authority, Interstate commerce, The Public Safety and US Constitutional Law. On 3/31/2023, [XXX](me) was traveling on New Jersey Turnpike. Tickets are issued at the entrance terminal (for CASH commerce) and drivers pay tollbooth attendants at exits by either CASH or EZ PASS (transponders). At Exit 2, on New Jersey Turnpike, a Tollbooth Attendant was absent, 3/31/2023 at 0434. The fee from the entrance terminal, on the New Jersey Turnpike, to exit 2, on the New Jersey Turnpike, is $2.05. I stopped and waited for tollbooth attendant at exit 2 on NJTP. I proceeded on route for my own safety and that of my own property, including a newly-purchased light utility vehicle registered in a different state other than NJ, assuming the obstruction was construction because safety cones diverted traffic in one of the 2 outgoing lanes (the EZ PASS lane, not the CASH lane). I received letter from New Jersey Turnpike Authority (NJTPA) headed FINAL NOTICE OF ENFORCEMENT ACTION on 5/25/2023 for $82.50. Parallel construction is a law enforcement process of building a parallel, or separate, evidentiary basis for a criminal investigation in order to conceal how an investigation actually began. In the US, a particular form is called evidence laundering, where one police officer (or NJTPA) obtains evidence via means that are in violation of the Fourth Amendment's protection against unreasonable searches and seizures, and then passes it on to another officer or agency, who builds on it and gets it accepted by other courts under good-faith exceptions as applied by the second officer, or agency in question. Exhausting evidence laundering gained momentum in the Supreme Court: 2009 ([XXX] v. United States). The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States NJTPA evidence consists of a motion detection picture which alerts NJTPA to EZ PASS commerce without EZ INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (

I have had two problems with my vehicle. The first is that the cruise control intermediately works and then doesn't at times. The second, is that the power steering intermediately works and then suddenly will go out in middle of a turn. I took it to a local mechanic and he hooked his scanner to it and although there were no warning lights on, he reset the computer in the vehicle. This action worked for approximately one hour and the then the issue with the power steering returned. I've looked up recalls on both these issues and have noticed there are recalls associated with these problems with ram 1500, however mine is not listed. I believe they need to broaden their recall actions before someone looses their life due to mechanical failure.

On may 29,2018. I rearended a semi truck. I had my foot on the brake pressed to the floor but vehicle would not come to a complete stop. When towed to collision center I addressed my concerns to them that I felt my vehicle was defective due to the truck maintaining speed while I was applying brakes. They plugged it into scan tool and four default codes came up. (ABS,airbag,power steering,door module)I then proceeded to open a claim with daimler chrysler. What was supposed to be the main concern that was supposed to be investigated was why default codes came up & truck was not stopping to avoid collision. Daimler chrysler assured me there third party investigator would investigate all the issues (all default codes). They where sent out, plugged truck into scan tool and took pictures. Third party sent my husband & I a copy of what the crash test data was.been calling them for answers since my truck has been sitting for month & a half untouched. To find out that they only investigated air bag issue & not other very serious mechanical safety issues. Clearly documented in crash test data, from my vehicle, states positive torque to motor with pedal pressure of accelerator reading at 0% & while brakes where being applied. I have documents to prove my statements. Also at time of accident my VIN was not included in the current recall of cruise control. On june 14th ,2018 my husband checked our VIN again & it is now included in current recall. At the time of accident my cruise control was not engaged. But the recall is due to the powertrain control module or engine control module not removing positive torque requests from the can-b. If can-b stops communicating with the ECM or PCM. Also all other default codes should be investigated like the power steering that pulled to one side while I was braking. Their are to many issues with my vehicle that they know about & are hiding. *bf

Traveling on highway in winter conditions the trucks anti-lock/ABS/traction control /4x4 and cruise control all stopped working and the dash warning lights started flashing. At 65 MPH while accelerating with traffic up hill on a corner on wintery roads the 4 wheel drive just stopped working and the traction control was lost. The truck went into several 360 degree spins and cam to a stop on the far right shoulder. No other vehicles were struck and I was able to avoid the bridge abutment. After taking the vehicle to lithia dodge of wasilla I was told the warranty was expired (48,100 miles at the time of the incident) but the dealer could not get the truck in for over a week. After the dealer looked at the truck they replaced the r-rear speed sensor and said that was the issue. I went to pick up the truck and the issue was not resolved. I left the truck again at the dealer. They then indicated the issue was in the wiring harness. I took the truck home to inspect the wiring. I tested the continuity of the conductors that the dealer had indicated were the issue and found no defects. I took the truck back and explained my findings, they indicated that the tech had "guessed" that the issue was the harness. After returning to get my truck the dealer said it was repaired, they had performed unauthorized work, cut my harness and spliced as they said that was the issue, but the issue was not fixed. I took the truck to another lithia dealer who indicated the harness was damaged beyond repair by the dealer, you cant splice the harness(?) according to the other dealer and it needs to be replaced in whole. They could not work on it any more to fix the issue due to the harness issue caused by the unauthorized repair performed by the other lithia dealer. Truck still has no 4x4, ABS, traction control or cruise control. This failurecould be a severe safety issue and result in accidents.

Two accidents and was denied recall - even though my 2015 dodge ram 1500 steering component has been defective and caused an accident. Accident #1 february 16, 2016 brakes did not function well. Car did not brake well in the rain, was coming to a red light with a car in front of me, had to push on the brakes and they were not braking. Dodge ram 1500 skid and hit the back of the car in front. Accident #2 march 12, 2016 loss of steering control and brakes did not work. I was stopped at a red light and it was raining. When the light turned green I started a slow left turn when: (1) the dodge ram lost traction, (2) dodge ram over steered to the left from the steering input suddenly losing power, and (3) the check engine light and ABS light came on and (4) my brakes stopped working. I tried to counter steer to move the truck to the side to the street but the truck would not stop. The truck then skid, went over the curb and hit a light post that fell on the right side of the dodge ram and damaged the car heavily. If it had fallen on the roof my passengers and I would be dead. Police report and four witnesses. Eleven days after the second accident, a recall for dodge ram 1500 model years 2015-2016 came out for steering. The recall is for the identical malfunctioning steering component that caused my second accident. Called manufacturer and was told that my VIN # is not part of the recall, which means for them that my car was made at a different facility from the recalls and is not of concern for them. Despite that my 2015 dodge ram 1500 is the make, model and year of the recall and despite the fact that I told them I had just had that exact steering malfunction, I was denied the recall.
