There are 4 owner-reported brakes complaints for the 2024 Ram 3500in NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
As I was exiting the highway with a loaded trailer carrying approximately 10,000 pounds, the ABS and brake warning lights illuminated on the dash, along with a “No Trailer Brakes” notification. When I applied the brakes to slow down, there was little to no braking response. Fortunately, I was able to safely pull off the road. The truck has now been at the dealership for two weeks, and the technicians have yet to identify a solution.
The brakes do not apply until after the pedal reaches half of its travel distance and still not as good they should. Very soft pedal feeling and too long of pedal travel to apply brakes. Very unsafe! I have had it to the dealer 3 times for this condition since I had purchased it (New) on June 5, 2025. They bled the brakes and found a small omaunt of air in the system. This did not change the braking condition at all. They cannot seem to find the problem. Service advisor did tell me that recently another customer brought in his 2024 Ram heavy duty pickup with the same issue.
The contact owns a 2024 Ram 3500. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the brake pedal was depressed, and the ABS warning light illuminated. The contact forcefully depressed the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the ABS module had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 96,000. The VIN was not available.
When applying the brakes when coming to a stop, just before the truck comes to a full stop the brakes grab and release. If I let off the brakes right before I stop it is way worst. This is a major concern for my safety and my family's safety.
