Anti-lock brake and Traction Control System warning lights flashing on and off intermittently It is available for inspection Problem has been reported Safety at risk due to anti lock brake system failure Vehicle has not been inspected Warning lights are intermittent
ABS control module is out, code c0020-01 I know 3 other people with the same issue. It is a widespread problem with these rams. Especially in the 2017-2018 years. How can there be a widespread issue like this and there not be a safety recall, seems like an issue with the brake system would be recalled quickly.
ABS System. It is available for inspection. On my 2018 Ram 2500 HD 6.7 Cummins Big Horn the ABS warning lights start flashing and warning alarm will start beeping. This is intermittent, but lately much more constant. The big safety issue is when I'm trailering and the ABS system flashes I lose my trailer braking ability. Also, if I'm on cruise control and the warning light comes on, it drops out of cruise control.

Having issue with abs module, brake light and abs/traction control light keeps flashing/dinging every bump, and just regular driving.
Abs and traction control light goes on and off constantly. When the lights come on, traction control doesn't work, brakes don't worry as they should, and 4x4 doesn't work. Almost caused me to have a wreck in the rain with no traction control.
My brakes locked up due to the abs pump not working.
My vehicle has had the Service Electronic Braking System/Service Antilock Braking System warnings appearing for approximately 6 months, along with the ABS light and Traction Control light being illuminated. It was intermittent at first but has been on steady for the past month. The vehicle has not been to the manufacturer to get inspected yet due to the intermittent nature at first. With the lights being illuminated, I have had a time or two where when the brakes were applied in a quick manner, the abs was not engaged and the tire locked up when a deer ran across the road.

Hello, I have an Anti Lock Brakes electrical motor failure on my vehicle. The motor failed once at 20000 miles and failed again after a warranty replacement at 60000 miles. The part is on national back order for 2 years now and keeps the ABS from being fully engaged. It also disables cruise control and constantly dings. Two Dodge dealerships have confirmed the issue. The code is C0020-01
Intermittent issues with hydraulic control unit and abs control module
ABS won't stay engaged causing traction control to not stay engaged and causes cruise control to not stay engaged. Skidding and loss of control are possible without ABS and traction control systems working. Loss of cruise control can cause rear impact from sudden slow down. Same problems are occurring in similar vehicles. Console chimes and ABS and traction control indicator lights come on. Message to service ABS system appears on console.

often experience noticeable braking issues. illumination of the ABS or brake warning light on the dashboard, indicating a problem with the anti-lock braking system. difficulty maintaining proper braking pressure, especially in emergency braking situations or on slippery surfaces, where the ABS should engage. As a result, the vehicle's stopping distance increases, and I have noticed a lack of control during hard braking. In some cases, the brakes feel soft or spongy due to improper hydraulic pressure regulation. Additionally, intermittent or complete loss of ABS functionality has occurred, leading to less stable braking performance.

ABS brakes
ABS warning lights keep flashing in my truck, dodge has no fix for this problem, all they say is parts are in redesign and unable. what can be done here?
The ABS and traction control light flash and sound repeatedly. As well as loss of trailer brake control. This is the second time the vehicle has done this. The first time I fixed it as Fam said it wasn’t covered by the warranty. I replaced the ABS module and HCU on my own dime. This is a major safety concern and should be treated as such.
ABS and traction control module defect. Dealer says repair not a recall.
“Service ABS” and “Service Electric Brake System” cautions alerts accompanied by warning chime, traction control and cruise control failures. Known issue with the Hydraulic Control Unit on this model. Dealer couldn't get parts as they were back ordered and now when available the price has tripled. Replacement parts seem to have the same issue. This started with about 25,000 miles on the vehicle.
