Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)The ABS light, Traction light, and Brake light all come on and simultaneously. I've been told that the ABS Module is bad and needs to be replaced. The fact that the module needs to be replaced concerns me since there are prior recalls for ABS Module with other Dodge, Ram, and Chrsyler makes and models.

I HAVE A 2011 CHRYSLER TOWN & COUNTRY VAN WITH ADJUSTABLE PEDALS. PER THE MANUAL 'THE PEDALS CANNOT BE ADJUSTED WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN REVERSE OR WHEN THE ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL SYSTEM (ESCS) IS ON'' IMPLYING SOME TYPE OF INTERACTION BETWEEN THE TWO SYSTEMS. FROM TIME TO TIME THE ESCS WILL NOT COME ON OR WILL STOP RESPONDING TO INPUTS, INCLUDING NOT DISENGAGING THE ESCS WHEN THE CANCEL BUTTON IS PUSHED (THOUGH IT WILL DISENGAGE BY DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL). HOWEVER, IF I TOGGLE THE ADJUSTABLE PEDAL SWITCH (IN ANY DIRECTION) THE ESCS IMMEDIATELY BECOMES RESPONSIVE AGAIN. THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME TYPE OF INTERACTION BETWEEN THE ADJUSTABLE PEDAL SWITCH AND THE ESCS CAUSING THIS PROBLEM. I'VE BEEN TO THE DEALER WITH NO ASSISTANCE. DUE TO THE ESCS INTERMITTENTLY NOT DISENGAGING VIA THE CANCEL BUTTON THIS CAN BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.
