The emergency braking system initiated during operating my vehicle (has done it 3 times) for no reason. It locks up my engine and will not let me operate the vehicle.

I have this feature turned off, it should never have activated. I have had several electrical issues; example: drivers side running light twice…

Nearly two years ago our truck starting constantly displaying/beeping to service our ABS system. We got the C4B recall in the mail informing us that a remedy was in the process. It has been too long driving an unsafe vehicle. We can’t sell it, nor can we safely haul our camper. Ram/Stellantis keeps telling us over repeated calls to them that the remedy is not ready. We finally found a dealer that has a replacement part, and we got it fixed, but had to pay out of our own pocket so we could…
