Owner Narrative
The contact owns a 2014 Ram 1500. The contact stated that the ABS, BRAKE, and an unknown warning light were illuminated. The contact stated that approximately one year later, while driving approximately 5 MPH in the rain, the steering wheel jerked left and right continuously, and the brake pedal was depressed and the vehicle stopped facing on-coming traffic. The vehicle was driven to the residence. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated that the vehicle was then taken to a dealer for an oil change and spark plugs replacement; however, after driving away, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken back to the same dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the ABS module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired because the parts were on back order. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 68,000.
