The vehicle had experienced the failure in 2020, and the dealer replaced the alternator, which temporarily resolved the failure; however, the symptoms reoccurred. The vehicle was taken back to a dealer where it was diagnosed, and the contact was informed that the failure was not caused by the alternator. The technician informed the contact that there were other underlying issues with the vehicle. The

ABS module needs to be replaced and they stopped making the part. Lights are on all the time with no cruise control and the advanced brake system no longer works. Nobody has the part. They do not make it anymore.
The ABS module has malfunctioned which affects the cruise control, most of the dash controls on the steering wheel and has several lights on the dash that stay lit. The Dodge dealer is aware of this and states that right now there is no fix from Dodge. I'm putting an estimate date below due to ongoing issue.
