SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
BRAKE SYSTEM ON DODGE RAM 2500 CAUSES A DANGEROUS PULLING CONDITION. I HAVE NEARLY BEEN IN SEVERAL ACCIDENTS WHEN PULLING A TRAILER, AS THE ADDITIONAL WEIGHT CAUSES THE PULLING CONDITION TO BECOME VERY SEVERE. I FEEL THIS IS A SECURITY RISK TO MYSELF AND OTHER MOTORISTS.*AK
