What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 ram 2500. While driving approximately 50 MPH, the front driver side wheel began to shake and there was a burning odor from the driver side. The front driver side hood area began to smoke and the control began to become unstable. The ABS warning light illuminated and the brakes became inoperable. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer who stated that the vehicle was unsafe to drive, but no official diagnostic was given. The failure mileage was 34,000.
My 8,000lb trailer will not slow down even after adjusting and checking all 4 electric brakes. F-150 hooked up to same trailer in same condition will stop the trailer very fast. Many people are having this issue. See below: continental makes the itbm for chrysler to chrysler's requirements. Itbm was redesigned for my13 and was used in 2013 and 2014 production which had a newly designed electrical architecture introduced for the 2013 model year.
