- The defect

- What it can cause
- The loss of braking performance or autonomous braking functions can increase the risk of a vehicle crash without prior warning.
- What the dealer does
- FCA US, LLC will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ABS module, free of charge. The recall began on March 30, 2021. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles

Ram vehicles have been recalled over the service brakes, hydraulic 7 times before this, most recently in February 2021 as 21V037000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) with NHTSA on March 9, 2021 as campaign 21V147000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
