2014 DODGE CHARGER Service Brakes Problems

At 65 mph with the adaptive cruse on, all of a sudden, the FCW light came on and almost rear ended the car in front of me. I lost antilock,cruse, and fcw. I also have less brake pedal. Took to Dodge dealer in Emporia Ks. Said anti-lock brake hydraulic control unit was bad. Part #68236997aa. Dodge discontinued and no aftermarket replacement. I am probably not the only person with this safety problem.

My ABS, BRAKE & ESC lights all came on at the same time on my dash. Took my car to a reputable mechanic and they told me that my abs module needed to be replaced but they were no longer available. So now I have to drive my car and worry about my brakes locking up if I have to come to a sudden stop for some reason since the anti-lock brakes are not working.

When i put the vehicle in park it says its not in park

My brakes went out on me and couldn't stop. My engine has been overheating and making a weird ticking noise.the front suspension is loose and has caused me to hydroplane on the highway and slide

When attempting to apply brakes, the pedal sunk to the floor with no result. On subsequent attempts, the left front brake activated and locked up while there was no apparent effect on the other 3 wheels. The car veered to the left as a result of the one brake being applied, and began to travel down the road at an angle of about 45 degrees. Correction was required to steer out, the brake remained locked up and not responding to the pedal. Automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems did not activate and my vehicle collided with the one ahead. AWD seemed to activate just prior to the collision, which assisted in correcting the brake lockup. Inspection of the vehicle seems to indicate electrical issues caused a brake booster fault, and likely caused failure of the emergency braking systems to activate. These issues first appeared the day of the accident, no error messages or trouble codes were present. It appears the braking system is faulty, due to electronic controls, seemingly. The car is available for inspection. The left front rotor is scored deeply and the artifacts on the asphalt indicate that the left front tire was dragging/skidding up to the point of impact.

When I bought the car all brake lights were on. I took it to Landers and they diagnosed the problem as a bad ABS control module and another part connected to it. I'm unable to use cruise control and my traction control is off as well. The warning lights will occasionally go off but they are usually on. Also the manufacturer has discontinued the parts I need so I can't get them to fix the issues.

Car still rolls when parking and/or parked. And safety recall repairs aren’t

CAR HAS CHALLENGES STOPPING SAFELY AND THE SUSPENSION IS SECURED PROPERLY. EVEN AFTER INSPECTION STILL NO SATISFACTORY CONDITION

I ALWAYS BRING MY CAR TO RANCHO CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE ON 8010 BALBOA AVENUE SAN DIEGO, CA 92111 REGARDING THE "BATTER SAVER MODE". I'VE HAD THIS CAR FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS AND HAVE GONE IN SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY/ALTERNATOR AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT I WAS TOLD AND THE "BATTERY SAVER MODE" STILL COMES ON. THE ISSUE IS IF YOU TURN OFF THE CAR IT GOES AWAY. I WAS INFORMED TO BRING IT BACK IN IF THE "BATTERY SAVER MODE" COMES BACK ON BUT IF THE PLACE ISN'T OPENED THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO DO SO. I WOULD LIKE THIS TO BE FIXED, MY CAR CUTS OFF AT TIMES WHEN I START IT AND DRIVE OFF IN THE MORNING WHEN IT'S COLDER AND THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR YEARS WHICH THIS WAS REPORTED TO THE CAR COMPANY AS WELL.

WHEN I CONTINUED TO DRIVE WITHIN A COUPLE OF MINUTES THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ELECTRICAL STABILITY LIGHT CAME ON. IT TURNED OFF FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS LATER, BUT IT TURNED ON AGAIN THE NEXT DAY IN THE MORNING WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND HAS STAYED ON SINCE.

WHILE DRIVING AND PREPARING TO TURN MY VEHICLE TOOK CONTROL AND I WAS NO LONGER ABLE TO BREAK OR TURN. THANKFULLY THERE WAS NOBODY IN THE NEIGHBOR AT THE TIME AND WITH LESS THAN A FOOT FROM HITTING THE STOP SIGN I WAS ABLE TO STOP. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED (1.5 YEARS PRIOR)AND THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG JUST NEEDED A NEW BATTERY. I INSISTED THIS WAS NOT THE ISSUE SO THE MANAGER HAD HIS ASSOCIATE TEST DRIVE TO COME TO THE SAME CONCLUSION THE STEERING AND BRAKE SYSTEM IS FINE. NOT HAPPY I LEFT AFTER PURCHASING THE BATTERY AND HERE WE ARE 1.5 WEEKS LATER WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I TRIED TO DRIVE OUT OF WORK YESTERDAY AND I LOST CONTROL TO MY STEERING AND IT LOCKED. I PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND TRIED ONCE MORE THE SAME THING HAPPENED, I THEN TRY TO RESTART BUT IT WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO DO SO. I HAD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY AND IT STARTED. NOT FEELING SAFE FOR MY LIFE I LEFT THE CAR AT WORK AND STILL DO NOT WANT TO DRIVE IT. FROM WHAT I AM READING I AM NOT THE ONLY 2014 DODGE CHARGER HAVING THIS ISSUE. I NEED THIS FIXED IF I WAS ON THE FREEWAY WHO KNOWS WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED.
