What Happened
The ABS and electronic stability control module in your Jeep Grand Cherokee or Dodge Durango is a critical part that helps you stop safely. In some 2018-2019 models, it can malfunction and cause problems with your brakes and vehicle stability.
Risk if Unfixed
If this happens, your ABS and electronic stability control could fail, making it harder to control your vehicle, especially on slippery roads. You could also start the car and shift out of Park without pressing the brake pedal, which can lead to a vehicle rollaway. Your brake lights might also not work correctly, which can confuse other drivers.
Free Fix
Your authorized dealer will replace the faulty ABS module and update the software, all at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice, and you can contact the dealer or FCA customer service at 1-800-853-1403 for more information.

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.

What Happened

Your dealer will update the ABS module software to prevent it from sending false signals, and this repair is completely free. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice, and if you've already had this repair done, you'll need to have the updated software installed as well.
