Default Brake vibration TSB done!

So I got my '05 back from dealer for the hard braking vibration issue some of us have had. Problem solved. TSB= no charge.

Same here. It feels like a different truck. The brakes are a bit softer but the vibration is gone and the ABS work correctly. If you all have not gotten the TSB repair for the rear brakes, get it done ASAP. You will be very happy with the outcome!

TSB means technical service bulletin. What it means is, that the manufacturer has determined there is a problem that needs attention/repair at no cost. Unlike a recall, Dodge is not required to inform a vehicle owner of this. A recall on the other hand is federally mandated. In most cases, the repair is at no cost to the owner except where there are certain elapsed time or mileage restrictions. Refer to the DF site index field aboveand on the left side you will see" Dodge recalls and TSBs" All members should refer to it to see if what they are experiencing with their trucks applies. I did and most likely saved myself big bucks down the road.

No, I think he was asking what the repair was and what it entailed...I think they changed the ECU?

No, the repair had nothing to do with the ECU. Changed out rear L&R axle shafts and complete rear brake assemblies

Is this just for the '05s? I'm having issues with my front brakes.

What exactly is the front brake problem? In any case you should still be under warranty, TSB or not.

Oh, right. the ECU was a recall, not a TSB...my appologies.
