Two problems related to brake disc have been reported for the 1998 Dodge Ram 1500. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Brake Disc problem

Failure Date: 08/10/2002

Since new the truck has pulled to the right. Dealer said that there was nothing wrong. I now find that right outer brake pad is worn out where all the others are fine. This to me means that the caliper on the right side is not disengaging. It has been this way from the manufacturer.

2 Brake Disc problem

Failure Date: 01/15/2002

During normal braking, brake pedal would pulsate. Dealer contacted.
