AI DamageU0122 code: Lost Communication With Vehicle Dynamics Control Module
Code U0122 is named in 7 US owner complaints. Models: 7, model years 2014–2025.
What the code means
Lost Communication With Vehicle Dynamics Control Module. Generic meaning per SAE J2012 (the same for all makes).
How to read U0122: the letter U means network communication between modules; the second digit 0 marks a generic SAE code shared by all makes; the last three characters 122 identify the specific fault.
ABS/ESC codes: wheel speed sensors, the ABS hydraulic unit and pump, brake booster, pressure and yaw sensors. A hit to a wheel or suspension often damages the wheel speed sensor or its wiring, so on a damaged car this code is a reason to inspect the hub, knuckle and control arms, not just swap the sensor.
