Both front brake lines ruptured. The left front ruptured while operating at highway speeds. The right ruptured immediately after replacing the left. Both ruptures where in the braided hose, on the same end within .75 and 2 inches from the connector.
I was driving and had the truck on cruise control and suddenly the cruise control disengaged and I got a message on the cluster that said Service Electronic Braking System. Now I get the message every time i turn on the truck. I read on line that this is an issue going on and just wanted to pass it along.
My 2015 Ram 1500 Big Horn Has Intermittent ABS and traction control lights, no cruise or 4x4 The SEBS and ABS lights, and alarm will start flashing and dinging. then goes out, but come back on when on wet road. Truck slides around with loss of traction.
PARKING BRAKE BECAME LOOSE AND STOPPED HOLDING THE VEHICLE PRIOR TO 86,000 MILES. ADJUSTMENT WAS MADE TO THE PARKING BRAKE BUT IT FAILED TO HOLD THE VEHICLE AFTER ADJUSTMENT WHEN THE PARKING BRAKE WAS TESTED. PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED ON 2/10/2020 AS DELIMITATION OF LINING MATERIAL FROM THE PARKING BRAKE SHOES. ONLINE SEARCHES INDICATE OTHER OWNERS REPORTING THE SAME ISSUES.
OEM TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER FAILS TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE VOLTAGE TO APPLY TRAILER BRAKING FOR THIS VEHICLE. TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER IS UNABLE TO LOCK THE TRAILER BRAKES AND THEREFORE YOU ARE UNABLE TO "SET" THE PROPER GAIN ON THE TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER. THIS CREATES A UNSAFE CONDITION THAT ALLOWS THE TRAILER TO PUSH THE TOW VEHICLE WHEN BRAKING.
TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER. BRAKES CUT OUT ON TRAILER OFF AND ON WITH NO REASON. STEP ON BRAKES AND THEY WORK, THEN THEY CUT OUT. GET MESSAGE ON DASH SAYING, DISCONNECTED,OR CHECK WIRING, NOT DOING IT ALL THE TIME, BUT GETTING WORSE. IN MOTION
INTERLOCKING BRAKING SYSTEM WAS ON AN OPEN RECALL WITH NO PARTS AVAILABLE WHEN SOLD TO ME ON 1/20/2018 AT DCH TEMECULA DODGE RAM, I WAS NEVER ADVISED AND DID NOT LEARN THAT THE VEHICLE HAD ONE UNTIL I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CORPORATE ON 5/21/2018 AT WHICH TIME I WAS TOLD THERE WERE PARTS AVAILABLE.
DRIVING LOCAL STREETS AND ON PARKWAYS BRAKES DO NOT RESPOND TO IMMEDIATE FOOT PRESSURE ON PEDAL, LONG BRAKING DISTANCE TO STOP,HAVE TO STAY BACK ADDITIONAL CAR LENGTHS TO MAKE A SAFE STOP. SPEED IS KEEP WITHIN LIMITS OF POSTED SIGNS, TRUCK BROUGHT IN FOR BURST POWER STEERING HOSE UNDER WARRANTY, TOLD OF BRAKE ISSUE,TESTED AND DETERMINED TO BE OK. NOT A SAFE FEELING IF YOU YOU HAVE TO STOP SUDDENLY OR IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND FIXED PROPERLY BEFORE AN ACCIDENT OR MULTIPLE FATALITY HAPPENS. ADDITONALLY I NEVER HEARD OR FELT THE ANTI LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM ACTIVATE IN ANY FAST SUDDEN BRAKING SITUATION.
THE INTEGRATED TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER DOES NOT PROVIDE THE PROPER VOLTAGE TO STOP THE TRAILER PROPERLY. THIS IS COMMON ON THE 2015 MODEL YEAR. I HAD A 2014 RAM WHICH DID NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE. THERE IS PLENTY INFORMATION ON DIFFERENT FORUMS DOCUMENT THIS ISSUE. IN A PANIC STOP WITH THE TRAILER CONTROLLER SET ON ITS HIGHEST GAIN IT STILL WILL NOT STOP THE TRAILER PROPERLY. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY CONCERN.
