Growling brakes in Reverse!
- Thread starter JRather
- Start date
finally took mine in for the backup/moan. They said the tsb parts will probably take a MONTH to arrive! WTF. Now I see there are TWO tsb's (only a few days apart) for this issue....one involves new pads/calipers, the other some clamps/mounts....so which is the correct tsb? Anyone?

I have 12'000 miles on my big horn. Took in today and calipers were ordered without any questioning. Back up noise has gotten really bad

Please know that I would be more than happy to escalate a case on your behalf to get you connected with a specialist who can work alongside your dealer to try and get the parts in sooner. Kindly follow up with me via private message if this would be of interest.

There are something like 4 TSBs on this. FCA can't figure it out. Good luck. I have Chewbacca in the bed of my truck every morning. What a joke for a $74000 truck.
well....backed out of the driveway today my front brakes sounds like they are entering the early stages of the brake moan we all love. just had my rears done 2 weeks ago. based on all the comments above it sounds like Ram doesn't have a permanent fix unfortunately. That being said, would RAM Cares like to cut me a check to cover the cost of the OEM brakes and I'll put that towards a set of brakes that don't scream after 10k miles?

Chewbaca will be back. I had my front brake pads and rears replaced back in September and hes back again.
Just joined this forum to find out more info. regarding the Growling Breaks in the morning. Took my 2019 Ram to dealership on Dec.12th 2019 and said parts are VIN specific and had to be ordered, then they were on back order. Reached out Jan.6th 2020 now he is saying back ordered until after Jan. 18. Still have not heard from dealership. Help??

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum, and also have this brake squeal when backing up in the morning. If I remember right, rams have a ''brake drying assist'', so I guess this is what creates this growling. No big deal but defenitely annoying.
here is what is said on my window sticker. "rain brake support"
you can also see this info here

click the link and read my friend,
'' When certain vehicle sensors detect rain, the system automatically sends intermittent signals to the calipers which push the pads lightly against the rotors – hard enough to scrape off water, but not so hard that it reduces wheel speed. ''
Thanks ,was wondering.
I have a 2019 (new body style) and my breaks make a horrible noise when backing up in the morning or after sitting for many hours. I'm driving a $47,000 truck and it sounds like an old piece of **** when I go in reverse. Had it to the dealer thee times and it's still not fixed. First time they had no idea what was wrong. Second time, dealer admitted it was a problem on these new trucks but there was no solution yet, and if they replaced brakes, it would probably keep making noise. Brought back the third time and they cleaned the calipers. Stopped the noise for two days and now it is back. Would it be worth contacting Ram directly?
