Question Brake to the Floor

2013 5.7 Crew

For about a year now I have had this problem where the brakes will fail after:
1) Curb Check
2) Significant Pothole Strike
3) Hitting Standing Water at High Speeds

The failure does not always happen on the first use of the braking system after one of those occur. There is also "degrees" of reaction by the system depending on the severity of the trauma the vehicle experiences. The dealership can find nothing wrong. There are no cautions or warnings of any kind on the dash.

Any thoughts?

Hi greenmachine,
Sorry to hear you are experiencing this, we certainly understand why this would be concerning. If you end up addressing this with your local Dodge dealer, please let us know via PM. We'd be more than happy to provide you with an additional layer of assistance for that process.
