SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC Safety Recalls

Critical #24V838000 Plain English
Component

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE

Manufacturer
Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)
What Happened
Your vehicle's brake system control unit, which helps prevent your brakes from locking up and losing traction, may not be working correctly. This could cause your brake lights to turn on when they shouldn't, and make it harder to control your vehicle in certain situations.
Risk if Unfixed
If your brake lights are on when they shouldn't be, other drivers may think you're slowing down and not give you enough space. If your vehicle can start moving without you pressing the brake pedal, it could roll away and cause an accident. If your ABS and electronic stability control systems are disabled, it could be harder to stop or steer your vehicle, especially on slippery roads.
Free Fix
To fix this issue, the dealership will replace a small sensor and update the brake system's computer software for free. They'll do this as soon as possible after you schedule an appointment.

Original — What Happened
Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2018-2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango vehicles. A malfunction in the antilock-brake system (ABS) module may incorrectly illuminate the brake lights and disable the ABS and electronic stability control (ESC). In addition, the vehicle operator may be able to start and shift out of Park without the brake pedal being applied.
Original — Risk if Unfixed
A vehicle that can be started and shifted out of Park without applying the brake pedal can result in a vehicle rollaway. Disabled ABS and ESC systems can reduce vehicle handling and control in certain driving situations. Brake lights that incorrectly illuminate can fail to properly indicate the driver's intention to following traffic. Any of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.
Original — Remedy
Dealers will replace the integrated pressure transducer and update the ABS module software, as necessary free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 16, 2025. Owners may contact FCA customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA's number for this recall is 94B. This recall replaces previous recall number 22V-426. Vehicles previously remedied under 22V-426 will need to have the new remedy completed.
