My Trailer Control Module failed when I hooked my travel trailer up to my truck to tow for a weekend trip. This was the first time I hooked my 2018 travel trailer to my truck. The lights started blinking erratically and then the module quit responding completely and I was not able to tow without brakes and lights. There is a new recall issued for this part but my VIN isn’t showing up as eligible. I was forced to pay out of pocket to have my TCM replaced because they tried to blame my trailer.

I have had my DEF system in my 2025 Ram 2500 Freeze twice now, I live in an area that drops below 12 degrees in the winter. I took it to the dealership the first time and they said the whole thing was frozen solid. I had to pay $365 since it is not covered under warranty for them to completely thaw it out and put new DEF in the tank. 7 days later it froze up again. The Service DEF System message seems to come on every time I have already been driving for awhile. I'm not trying to pay $365 every
