What owners wrote

“My abs, traction control light, and brake light are on on the dash. When I tried to use cruise control the other day it wouldn't turn off. Now it's not working at all and the brakes locked up in the rain the other day and as soon as it dried up outside the issue went away. But now the brake module under the hood seems to be leaking and my oil cooler on top of the engine.”

“My traction control light, ABS sensor light and brake indicator dash are on. My cruise control does not work. My mechanic says that it is the ABS Control Module. There is a recall for this part, but not for my vin number. The horn fuse had to be removed because the alarm would not stop going off, even when the alarm was not set. This is also associated with the ECM.”

“My car is rarely driven, only 40,000 miles. When i started my car recently the brake, ABS light, and traction light came on. I did my research in which i found out that there is a recall for 2012-2015 dodge journey model, my car is a 2015 model but my VIN in particular is not part of the recall”
