  • TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS

    Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2014 Chrysler Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan vehicles manufactured March 20, 2014, to April 22, 2014, and 2014 Jeep Wrangler vehicles manufactured March 21, 2014, to April 22, 2014. Due to a software error, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) may fail to learn the locations of the individual sensors while the vehicle is being driven. As a result, the low tire pressure warning light will illuminate, despite the the tire pressures being within specification. Should one of the tires lose air pressure, the driver would not be notified of the change in air pressure. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."

    XXX lights on dash for abs, brakes, traction came on upon commuting home from [XXX] to [XXX]. I went to Honda Fredericksburg and diagnosis was C2200 failed and the part was on back order. Returned to SC and followed up with Jeep and local automotive services and part back order but able to drive without replacement and still awaiting product. XXX engine light on in addition to the continual abs, brake, traction lights as well as vehicle going into limp mode. Took it immediately to local automotive services shop and received ABS control Module failure is now sending error to other sensors to put Jeep in limp mode and inoperable. OEM Part still on back order and unable to obtain from Jeep. I contacted Mt. Pleasant Jeep dealership service department as well and unable to get the part. No part available and unknown timeframe which leaves me to garage the Jeep while waiting for a new part to become available. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

  • SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

    The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle, several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The traction control, cruise control, and ABS features were inoperable. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, and DTC: C2200 was retrieved. It was determined that the ABS module needed to be replaced; however, the part was on backorder. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 93,000.

  • SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

    • ABS Control Module. • Intermittent braking & locked calipers while driving in normal conditions. Vehicle would became unstable at highway speeds at times. Sometimes resolves. Ruined calipers & almost started a fire due to friction heat from failed system. • Yes • No • Yes & No. The warnings & uncontrolled braking happens almost simultaneously & at times Intermittently. Warning lights are now on continuous. Unable to drive vehicle due to the dangers of uncontrollable braking by the module.

  • SERVICE BRAKES

    The ABS module on my vehicle has gone bad. I have no antilock brakes, no traction control and my cruise control no longer works. Jeep no longer produces the module needed to repair my vehicle. Their customer service department refuses to help because I have no proof that I’ve attempted to purchase the part that isn’t available for purchase. There are thousands of people with this same issue. I’m also unable to sell or trade this vehicle because this is a major safety issue and it has diminished the value significantly. Please help me.

  • ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,SERVICE BRAKES

    I own a 2014 Jeep Wrangler Sahara JKU with approximately 67,000 miles. The vehicle has experienced a failure involving the ABS control module and related braking/stability systems. Current symptoms include: * ABS warning light illuminated * Brake warning light illuminated * Traction control warning light illuminated * Intermittent speedometer malfunction * Brake pedal occasionally vibrates and becomes soft during operation * Vehicle hesitates for several seconds when accelerating from a stopped position while dashboard warning lights flash The vehicle has been diagnosed by two separate Jeep repair facilities as having a failed ABS control module. I have been informed that replacement ABS modules for this vehicle have been unavailable for approximately nine months and remain unavailable as of today. This appears to be a widespread issue affecting Jeep Wrangler JK vehicles, with many owners reportedly unable to obtain replacement safety-critical ABS modules through Mopar or dealership networks. Because the ABS and traction/stability systems are malfunctioning, the vehicle cannot pass inspection and is unsafe for my family of four, especially during rain or emergency braking situations. This issue affects federally mandated vehicle safety systems, including anti-lock braking and electronic stability control. Owners should not be left without access to replacement parts for critical safety equipment for extended periods of time.

  • ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES

    ABS module has internal failure rendering the ABS inop. This is known issue across JK body style Jeep Wranglers.

  • SERVICE BRAKES

    ABS control module has failed causing the ABS system and the traction control to fail. I have no antilock brakes now. I have had issues with braking multiple times, especially in loose traction. Manufacture stated there’s no available replacement parts to fix my condition. Traction control, ABS, and Brake lights stay illuminated on my dash. This also creates a distraction while driving.

  • ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES

    Jeep ABS system failed. Known widespread issue. Replacement module is on back order after multiple revisions. Failed module disables the traction control with a warning on dash. Warnings also include Brake light and ABS light. With traction control disabled I have had the vehicle spin out of control in wet situation. Once it has caused me to lose control and end up off the road. Vehicle was at dealer for other recall and the ABS module needs to be replaced but on back order.

  • VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,SERVICE BRAKES

    ABS Module failure with no replacement available. Unit available for inspection. Vehicle can not be safely driven. Doesn't brake properly and not reliable on wet roads. Speed control non functional. Vehicle has been at dealer for months. Vehicle has been inspected by insurance and Jeep dealership. Multiple warning lamps are lit. First appeared after accident. ABS module replacements are not available per dealer.

  • SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC,PARKING BRAKE

    The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that the vehicle was difficult to stop. The traction control and cruise control features were inoperable. The parking brake, traction control, and ABS warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who determined the failure was caused by the ABS control module. An unknown local dealer was contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and opened a case. The approximate failure mileage was 161,000.

  • STEERING,SUSPENSION,POWER TRAIN

    Death wobble. Dealership that has it now (Campbell Chevorlet in Bowing green ky) knows and fails to fix or report it.

  • SERVICE BRAKES

    ABS Module component has failed which controls anti-lock brakes, cruise control and traction control. Jeep has no stock of ABS Modules, and no production dates for potential fix. Therefore these Jeeps have reverted a decade or two in safety losing their ABS, traction control and going into limp mode, which prevents you from driving (I have not experienced limp mode but neither do I wish for this to happen.)

  • SERVICE BRAKES

    2014 Jeep Wrangler ABS module failure, part number 68145835AE Dash light for ABS and Brake warning light are constant on the dash. This is the 2nd 2014 Jeep Wrangler I have owned that has this problem. It has been diagnosed by the Jeep dealer and another mechanic. The part is on National back order. I ordered the first one in 2024 and it has not been available. I have done a bunch of research and believe a CHIP in the module fails but is no longer available. My Jeep is available for inspection.

  • SERVICE BRAKES

    The vehicle has been virtually trouble-free for many years. Recently, it began to have some issues. The vehicle is covered under a lifetime warranty from Chrysler and has been serviced by the local Jeep dealer. We brought the vehicle in to service in November, 2025. One of the issues that had just occurred was that the brake warning lights came on. The dealer said they were not able to replace the AntiLock Brake module because they were backordered. They said the vehicle would be safe to drive. We waited a month and still no part. I reached out to the manufacturer, and they said the part was not in stock and I would be notified when they would be able to send it to the dealer. It is no about 5 months later and still no part. The part(s) show as available from the Manufacturer online, however they continue to say there are none available for our vehicle. The Dealer service department said this is not unique to us, that it is a constant problem for them to get this part from the manufacturer. We need the vehicle for transportation and are worried that the defective part may lead to brake failure and an accident.

  • AIR BAGS

    FCA is not handling this recall professionally. Dealerships are stating they do not handle the towing, despite this being a DO NOT DRIVE recall that has resulted in deaths. FCA has used a call center that employs people who barely speak English. Lack of ability to communicate with the customer and dealership staff should disqualify someone from serving in this capacity. The service department at my local dealership seems to be suggesting I just drive the vehicle down, which contradicts the DO NOT DRIVE portion of this recall. I do not believe FCA is acting in good faith to perform these recalls in a safe manner for the customer.
