ABS light on on other 1500 years
Report counts are for each model year on its own, so a newer car has had less time to collect them. Model years with too few reports of it for a sheet: 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026.
What this problem usually is
This is the narrower sheet inside brake problems for the anti-lock brake (ABS) warning light. What separates it from the wider brake sheet is that most owners here aren't describing worn pads or grinding. They're describing a light, and often a list of features that quit along with it.
What got replaced
Owners who name the part that was replaced mention the ABS module (113 reports) and the ABS pump (4 reports).
Recalls and investigations
No recall on the brakes covers the 2014 model year as of Oct 2, 2026.
What owners paid
19 of the 141 reports quote a price. Each dot is one quote. The middle half runs $915 to $2,000.
When it happens
The middle half of failures fell between 70,000 and 126,162 miles, from the 46 reports that gave a mileage.
What owners wrote
“ABS Module has stopped working. The part has been on back-order with RAM for months. A failed ABS module compromises safety by disabling anti-lock braking and electronic stability control (ESC).”
Filed Sep 14, 2026
“ABS, BRAKE & TRACTION CONTROL lights are illuminated while the engine is running. Diagnostics show code C2200-49 indicating ABS module failure. New module is unavailable & has reportedly been so for several years.”
Filed Sep 9, 2026
“The ABS module failed. Replacement parts are no longer being manufactured. My traction control, ABS, and cruise control no longer function as a result. Also getting warnings that the trailer braking system has a failure - these warnings started after the ABS module failed.”
Filed May 1, 2026
“Failure of ABS module. Unable to replace due to manufacturer hold on part. Not safe to drive and nometa on when parts will be available. This is a known issue with many owners experiencing failures.”

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 2 of 141 reports involved a crash and 2 people were hurt. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation. How reports land on this sheet.
