2016 Ram 1500 Brakes

My abs, traction control, trailer brake lights are on. Error code C2200-49. What is worse; there are no parts! As I tow a camper it is a serious issue! I cannot understand why this issue is common with this vehicle but ram doesn’t have remedy. (Rebuild option or shock- have someone make spare parts for it) I will be forced to fix it myself with junk yard parts. Why is it so hard to get competent designers when the trucks have been made for 20 years or more. If they would standardize more on parts and quit changing things every year maybe we could get better and safer vehicles. And spare parts may be easier to get.

ABS Module failure, Anti-Lock Brake system failure.

Upon start get dash message "Service Electronic Braking System". When that goes away I'm left with these lights: ABS , Antilock system symbol, and BRAKE. As a result of this I have NO CRUISE CONTROL as well. Took the vehicle to Johnson Dodge dealership in Budd Lake, NJ. They told me the ABS modules are on back order for a year. Also that the replacement parts have been DISCONTINUED BY DODGE. No ETA available. I travel mostly hightway without ABS or cruise control. I worry about decreased stopping distance constantly. THIS IS A POTENTIALLY DEADLY THREAT TO ME AND PASSENGERS. The internet is full of complaints for the same problem.

ABS warning light. Light came on in July 2025. Local repair shops could not fix said there are no parts available. Took truck to Ram dealer in December 2025.They state ABS MODULE is bad along with HCU hydraulic control unit. Followed up 4 times on what the hold up is. They state waiting on parts and keep reponsonding the same. I called the Ram national customer service as directed on 1/22/2026. They said they would get right on the issue. I got a response about 5 days later. They said they are still trying to find the parts. I checked again around February 3rd. Got the same response. I checked several chat rooms about the issue and there were a lot with the same model year. This is a big safety issue as brakes lock up and or it takes longer to stop the Truck. Please look into this matter. Thanks

The ABS control module has faulted and the ABS, Traction Control, and Cruise Control are off making them all inoperable, even though the truck is still able to be drive, albeit unsafely. There is a national backorder of parts and the units are no longer being manufactured.

ABS System failed when making a right hand turn. It cause my truck to fishtail into on coming traffic and wind up on the other side of the road going the opposite direction. We have not been to a dealership yet. Scared to drive it again. The traction control light and ABS light and brake lights are on all the time. No other warnings.The lights were on when I purchased the truck.

The ABS warning light is on. I took the vehicle to the dealership, and they advised that it is safe to continue driving.

Known issue with the abs module causing brake problems no abs no traction control very dangerous to drive especially in wet/slippery conditions

ABS module needs replacing. Part on Backorder for a year, won't be available till July 2026. RAM is offers no alternative. 3rd party vendors are saying the computer chip controlling the module has been discontinued by its maker, and in reality, there are no more new modules being produced. Car has no ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, STABILITY CONTROL.

ABS MODULE 68295368-AC failed. Prevents anti-locking brakes to function. Only have hydraulic brakes which will allow the vehicle to go into a skid. Does not allow the cruise control to function. This part has been on back order from my dealer since February 25, 2025. I have checked on the statis and have been told they are not even allowed to place any more requests for new customers with this same defected abs module. There is no after market part available for this model. Only option is to spin the wheel and hope for a working part from a salvage yard. There were recalls for previous models and later models. There are thousands of us, if not more with this problem. When will Stellantis be held accountable and get us the required part. With warning lights on the dash board for brake and traction control, there is little value to try and sell or trade my Ram 1500. Who would by it? With the defective abs module not only am I at risk, but other vehicles on the road could be endangered.

ABS Module tested by independent service to be defective. ABS, antiskid and brake lights all on. Cruise control disabled. Available for inspection. No “incident” has occurred other than having no antiskid function which poses a risk in wet conditions as well as fatigue issues on long drives with no cruise control! ABS Module has been on manufacturer nationwide back order for over 2 years with no end in sight and no alternate resolution offered. Unit was under 3rd party warranty initially but it’s been so long it is now not covered.

failure of ABS control module. This disables anti lock brake system,traction control & cruise control. There are hundreds of this modules on back order. Not one of parts suppliers have this part & do not know when they will be available. I reached out to corporate & they don't either

5 MONTHS SINCE ABS MODULE FAILURE. NO ABS, RENDERING VEHICLE ILLEGAL TO OPERATE. SAME ISSUE WITH NEWER VEHICLES BUT MY YEAR NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL NOR ARE THERE PARTS AVAILABLE TO REPAIR ON MY OWN. LAW STATES 10YRS PARTS AVAILABILITY WHICH I BELIEVE IS WHAY THEY ARE HOLDING OUT TO NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS MASIVE ISSUE. THE PROBLEM IS NEGLIGENCE. SENSITIVE COMPONENT IN AREA PRONE TO WATER AND SO PHYSICAL SEAL PROTECTING PARTS.

My ABS light, Brake light and traction control light come on intermittently. Had it tested and they say that the ABS Module has internal failure. It came up with warning code C2200-49 when tested.

Abs module has electronic fault requiring repair or replacement there is no modules available to repair with some remanufactured ones are available with prices very high also has to be programmed by a dealer making it a very costly repair if you can find one. This is a safety issue as abs will not function till repair complete chrysler is well aware of issue there is thread after thread about it online.

Vehicle displayed ABS warning light and message to service electronic braking system. Took to Ram dealer August 2025 and vehicle was diagnosed with faulty ABS module. Service advised that the part was unavailable due to a national shortage for a known ABS module failure problem. Was told to continue driving vehicle because it was safe to operate. Subsequent, related problems presented over following three months: loss of traction control, speedometer failure, odometer failure, brakes failing to release when shifted into drive, and most concerning, loss of power steering while driving on a wet curve that caused loss of vehicle control not resulting in a crash. Three vehicle occupants were left very scared at the unexpected loss of vehicle control. Called dealership November 2025 after loss of control episode and was told the ABS module part was still unavailable. I fear the vehicle will kill us if driven and we encounter an emergency situation. The ABS module failure in this 2016 Ram 1500 model is well documented in public records and was confirmed to me by an authorized dealer.

I first started having issues with the “brake” light illuminating in dash, service electronic braking system, service abs, service trailer braking system (no trailer hooked up) around 8/20/25. I had it check out by a mechanic on 8/28/2025 and he confirmed that the ABS module was bad. DTC C2200-49 stored in ABS module. Inspected wiring and connections and found no issues. I have contacted RAM about the incident. There is a recall on other RAM trucks the same year model but not this one. I have a failed component.

FAULTY ABS MODULE THAT EVEN THE DEALER SAYS THEY CAN'T GET. IT HAS ENABLED THE ABS from working as should.

Warning lamps abs, traction, and brake light

The ABS module has had an internal failure for a couple of years now, and since it had just over 50,000 miles on it, the code in the ABS is C2200-49, it turns off traction control and makes the Ram 1500, unsafe to drive, you guys made them do a recall for the ram 2500, and ram 3500, for the same part, it's time to make them step up and stand behind their ram 1500, also! Braking systems are very important to the public, and you obviously have enough proof that there is a problem, and this system fails so often, it is impossible for me to even find a replacement part, it's on impossible back order, which also proves the part is defective, in the 2013-2018, I believe. Please help, these things are thousands of dollars for the replacement part, and they fail so often, I can't even get one.

I have been waiting 6 or more months for an ABS control module (part # 68295368AC) for my 2016 Ram 1500 (vin [XXX]). I cannot locate a new one at any dealer I have called as they all say the part is back ordered and they have no idea when it will be available. It seems to me that if the part has been unavailable for over six months then many trucks are having the same problem which would indicate faulty manufacturing and thus should be recalled. Driving this vehicle with this module not functioning properly disables the traction control as well as the ABS but I am forced to drive it as I have no other vehicle that I can drive while this one sits in the driveway waiting for a part that no one knows when it will be available. I hope you are able to help me convince Mopar that they need to replace the part at their expense ASAP or provide a replacement vehicle in the meantime.

The ABS module has gone out in the truck. Ram has no replacements available for the part. The part number is 68295368AC

The ABS module on my vehicle has failed. A factory replacement part is not available and according to Stellantis, it is on back-order. The problem is that is has been on back-order/development for over 2 years. You can't even get a rebuild unit. The only option is a used part. This is unacceptable on a vehicle that cost $65K new and is less than ten years old. We need a resolution.

The ABS module has failed. As such, the anti-lock brakes, nor the electronic brakes for braking a trailer do not work. This is a safety hazard as when towing you might not be able to stop in time to avoid an accident. I tried to get this fixed at a RAM dealership, but was informed this item has been on backorder for over 1.5 years and there are several other customers waiting for this part. So, I escalated at RAM and the escalation representative replied stating that they are waiting for production approval. They have been waiting on production approval for over 1.5 years for this safety issue. What is going to take, someone getting seriously injured or killed to get RAM to provide this safety item? As I mentioned, RAM is aware of this issue, but are not doing what it takes to address. It would be great if you can put pressure on RAM to make this safety item a priority. Also, it would be great if it came in form of a recall, but being able to get this part so that I can safely operate my vehicle is my main priority. Anything that you can do in addressing this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

The ABS Control Module failed 7/2025. Brake and other warning lights came on. My mechanic diagnosed as an ABS Control Module failure. After hours of callng dealers and parts stores, it was determined (and confirmed by Ram corporate) that there was LITERALLY ZERO OEM replacement parts in the US! I was informed that "the truck was safe to drive, but you will not have anti-lock brakes". I was stunned at the non-chalant response from RAM corporate that they knew there were no replacement parts available in the US, "but they were working on finding a supplier". So I asked the RAM representative, "so let me get this straight. On this safety critical system, you not only don't have any parts to repair my truck, you don't even have a supplier on contract to build them!" And RAM clearly knew about the failure rate on this part, because I just saw they were in a class-action lawsuit, which I also just saw didn't include the 2016 Ram, but starts with the 2017. This is CRAZY!
