Owner Complaints (2)
Your trailer brakes have stopped working because the hydraulic controller isn't functioning properly. You're also seeing warning lights for traction control, airbags, and ABS (anti-lock brakes) coming on intermittently. The dealer believes the ORC (Occupant Restraint Controller) module needs to be replaced to fix these issues.
