ABS light or ABS activating by model year
What owners say
The 2025 and 2026 dually 3500 Ram trucks with the 12" AAM rear axle are having issues with the rear wheel speed sensors (different sensor for each side). They apparently fail or are not able to properly communicate to the computer. When this happens, the following are disabled: -ABS -Auto Emergency Braking -4x4 -Electronic Stability Control -Cruise Sometimes, the engine won't shut off. The gauge cluster will state it can't detect which position the transmission is in. So, you cannot shift, and you can't shut the truck off, and you can't drive. You are stuck in place with a running engine. Despite Stellantis releasing a new revision of wheel speed sensors (AB revision), they have failed in less than 2,000 miles on my truck. Many, many dually owners are experiencing these failures. My truck has been to 2 dealerships for a total of 5 repair attempts so far.

I have been submitting reports to you for several months with no resolution. The truck yet again experienced the same problem, twice, within 1 week. It would start but then claim that it couldn't detect what gear it was in and said "can't shut off until transmission is in park". After cutting electrical power to get it to shut off, it would not start. After getting it started, it would not go into gear. Once I got the engine running and transmission to go into gear, it no longer had ABS.
3 times to date (10,000 miles/8 months) I have failing abs speed sensors. If I stop moving when all lights come on dash the truck is in operational. I cannot shift gears, put in park or turn engine off. Loose traction control, ads, 4wd, stabiltrac, speedometer. All assitive and braking functions. Code U1412. Dealer replaces speed sensors but problem returns.

After the 2nd time at the dealership, the sensors only last less than 23 miles.

The warning lights on the dashboard come on when driving. ABS, VSC, 4WD, automatic emergency braking etc. are all shut down when this happens. The lights may stay on for a few days or turn off at the next restart with only a check engine light remaining on. It has been back to two different the Ram dealer for repairs 4 times for this issue. Starting out on 04/25/2025 at 419 miles, the last time was 12/22/2025 at 3,677 miles. They have replaced several sensors and updated the computer several times, yet the problem still persists. It may be fine for several hundred miles or it may happen several times in one hundred miles. At this point the dealer doesn't seem to know what more to do.

Bad wheel speed sensor which disables ABS, cruise control, and all the ADAS systems. Vehicle has been to dealer 5 times for this in less than 8 months. Stellantis takes over a month to replace the part. Vehicle also will not shut off and/or be able to move while this happens.
