general problems of the 2014 Jeep Wrangler - part 1

Abs module has internal failure rendering the abs inop. This is known issue across jk body style Jeep Wranglers.

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.

Abs pump is faulty, part is unavailable to purchase for years not safe when roads are icy or wet.

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.

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.

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. ).

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.

Abs module failure. No fix or replacement part available. No recall, no anti- lock brakes ,no traction control , disables cruise control , no solution available per Jeep ?.

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.

The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the seat belt, parking brake, and abs warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the dealer, who determined that the abs module had failed and 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 84,000.

My abs module failed, which is a very well know issue with the 2014 to 2018 models. When the abs module failed I was driving the vehicle and it went into fail safe mode while I was on the freeway service road. The speedometer stopped working and the vehicle would not go over about 20 mph. The vehicle was fine one minute and then I had no control of how fast I was going. I was with traffic that was going 60 mph and it could have been extremely dangerous for me or other drivers. The vehicle has been at the dealership since October 3rd, 2025 and has not been drivable due to this issue. It has not been inspected by anyone other than the dealership. There were warning lights but I was told that it was fine to drive until the part was available. It is currently on a national backorder for the last 18+ months without an estimated arrival date. The failure first appeared in June of 2024 and the part has been on backorder since then.

Abs sensor has failed at 35,000 miles and has left me without antilock brakes which impairs the braking ability of my vehicle in emergency situations. This needs to be issued as a recall.

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.

The abs module was determined to be faulty via a code scan in July 2025 by the dealership. I took the vehicle to another mechanic for confirmation and this was determined to be accurate. A new module has been ordered but is on backorder and may not become available for months as many other owners are dealing with the same problem. I was told that it was still drivable and this is a daily driver vehicle. This now appears to be causing the vehicle to go into "limp" mode, not allowing the vehicle to accelerate at times when pulling into traffic.

The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an abnormal clunking sound coming from the front of the vehicle while coming to a stop. The contact stated that while attempting to continue driving, the vehicle struggled to respond, because the wheels had seized. The contact stated that the abs warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed failures with the abs sensors and abs control module. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, a case was opened, and the contact was referred to the NHTSA hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was unknown.

Intermittent indicator lights for abs, ebrake, and traction control. Code is indicating an issue with the abs control module. Dealer is saying that parts have been on back-order for years. This appears to be a very common issue with this Jeep style. I'm very surprised there has not been a recall on this yet!!.

While driving in town the red warning lights came on (traction control, abs lights) vehicle would not shift when trying to accelerate, speedometer not working along with a few other issues. Mechanic said abs module needs to be replaced. Then he informed me that the part is not available for purchase and not being manufactured anymore. I now have a vehicle that is useless and not safe to drive. This is unacceptable customer service. Very disappointed in Jeep for not addressing this problem or offering an alternative solution. I can not afford to buy another car.

The abs control module has been out on my vehicle since may 2025. Which is when the part was ordered by my dealership through mopar as the part is only sold through mopar directly. This part cannot be replaced through third party and requires a mopar agent to scan to the vehicle. This has been a systemic issue where it has been referred to as a “galactic back order” in the cars manual from Jeep when there are issues with the abs control module it lists this as a critical safety issues and to take it directly to a dealership for service. When this issue is present it disables electronic stability control (esc), anti locking braking system (abs), descent assist control, and cruise control. This increases safety issues especially when driving on slick winter or wet roadways. I wonder how many other people had an issue like this and contributed to an accident? when an inquiry is submitted to find out more about this issue from the order it’s going to be sent out on x date then x date comes and it gets pushed back now it’s y date then z. Per stelantis this part is under their “engineer review” and now it’s unknown when they will release this part.

The abs light on my instrument panel has been going off for since April 2025. I have attempted to order a replacement abs control module, but stallantis keeps canceling the order with no reason provided. This appears to be a long ongoing problem, and others have reported waiting years for a replacement. I have also heard reports that stallantis is no longer making the part. I understand that NHTSA has forced a recall on other Jeep/ram abs control modules, so I'm not sure why one has not been placed on the Jeep jk series.

Abs module failure. Can’t even buy parts as they are unavailable. Jeep should be liable for this. If abs prevents dangerous situations and the module is failed, they should be liable.

Abs module failure causing electrical issues and making car unsafe to drive. Spedometer works intermitently, Jeep become unresponsive. Been on Jeep forums and realized im not alone in having this issue or the long wait for the replacement module incidicating high depend for replacements.

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.

I took my Jeep in to be serviced by my mechanic due to the abs, brake and traction control lights being on. The issue is the abs module is faulty. I was told I could drive it but use caution in rain and ice. I was also told by my mechanic he had another customer with the same issue and it took the customer several months to find the part. Now, I need to begin the hunt for a dealership that has an abs module and be charged about $2000 including labor costs. Why is this happening to the abs modules? is the abs module faulty to begin with? my Jeep has about 62,300 miles on it. Why am I having to replace a part that should last the life of the vehicle? yes, many years ago vehicles did not have abs. Now, modern vehicles do. When the abs module fails it can cause too many issues for the vehicle plus it’s not only putting the occupants of the vehicle in danger but also others on the road. So then why are so many Jeep owners having to replace the abs module when it should be a long-lasting component?.

Abs module failure resulting in abs and traction control systems not functioning properly putting myself and others at risk for injury. There is no replacement part available and mopar indicates there is no current production for a replacement part. This is a well known problem that the manufacturer has failed to provide a safe solution for.

Abs ,traction control, and brake lights stay on I took it to the dealer they told me it was internal failure on the abs module I can't afford 1200$ to fix it I'm in a Jeep club this is a common problem it should be recalled and fixed for free it's a safety hazard. And you lose power you can't even pass another car when all the lights are illuminated.

Anti-lock braking system pump #68259556ad failure leaving the vehicle immobilized, dealership/manufacturer have not had replacement for over 3 years now, many mopar cars are suffering from this safety issue of not having abs, and not having a solution for this problem.

The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while driving 30 mph, the abs, traction control, and brake warning lights all appeared on the instrument panel. The vehicle was initially taken to an independent mechanic where a code reader determined that there was a defect with the abs module. The vehicle was then taken to a dealer for a diagnostic test where the brake calipers were replaced; however, the warning light remained illuminated on the instrument panel. The dealer later confirmed that the abs module was defective; however, the part for the repair was on backorder. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was filed. The contact was referred to the NHTSA hotline to file a complaint. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was filed. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 59,000.

Abs module failed and the Jeep began violently shaking on the freeway. There is a significant risk of the brakes locking up which put myself and the general public at risk. A dealer confirmed however there are no parts to buy from stellantis/mopar. They are on an "indefinite backorder". Even getting them rebuilt is impossible because they are unable to get the parts. Abs, brake, and traction control all came on when the module failed and the death rattle started. This has left me with a dangerous and almost completely useless vehicle for over a year with no resolution in sight. This is a public emergency with so many vehicles that this is happening to and we need a resolution.

Our abs control module has failed. P/n 68145835ae. It's available at any time to inspect. The abs system does not function. In a rain or snow situation this could cause severe harm to us and others on the road. Our local service center that works on a wide array of Jeep Wrangler products says they have other customers with the same problem on this specific model. It is also reported substantially on online Jeep enthusiast forums. The unit in our Jeep has been looked at by our service center. There are warning lights on the dash indicating the abs is non-functional. This failed in may 2024. The abs module also controls speed control and that also is no longer working. It has been this way for over a year. Other Jeep owners with this similar issue have reported the same issue. This appears to be a systemic issue that Jeep is very aware of but has taken no action to correct. The cost if I want to have this repaired is $1,200 plus labor.

Red brake light came on dash. Dealership investigated & found faulty abs control module. Dealership said it is a very common issue and poses a significant safety risk as the anti lock brakes are inoperable.

The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while stopped at a red light, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. The contact's vehicle was rear-ended. The contact's wife, who was the other occupant of the vehicle, was taken to the hospital in a private vehicle. The contact's wife sustained a dislocated left hip. In addition, the contact's wife had previously had a left hip replacement and undergone four left hip surgeries. The vehicle was driven to the contact's residence. A police report was filed; however the information was unavailable.

The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with a failed abs module. The contact was informed that the abs module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was informed that the parts were on back order. The contact stated that the order was placed almost thirteen months ago. The contact stated that the vehicle was almost rear-ended two times recently. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. The contact was advised to contact the NHTSA hotline and report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000.

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the ongoing issue with the abs control module in my vehicle. For the past two years, this component has been faulty, leaving me without abs functionality, traction control, and proper braking performance. As a result, I have experienced several dangerous situations in which my vehicle was nearly involved in accidents due to these safety deficiencies. Despite my efforts to resolve the matter, I have been unable to obtain the replacement part. I have contacted multiple dealerships, suppliers, and even mopar directly, yet I have been given no estimated timeframe for delivery. I currently have the part on order, fully paid for, and after two years there is still no indication of when or if it will become available. This situation has created serious safety concerns for both myself and other motorists. Furthermore, I am unable to trade in or properly service my vehicle due to this unresolved issue. I find this unacceptable and believe it demonstrates a significant failure in both product support and customer service. I respectfully request immediate action to resolve this matter, whether through expedited access to the replacement part, an alternative solution, or other appropriate corrective measures. My priority is ensuring my vehicle is safe to operate, and I urge you to address this situation without further delay.

Abs module defective and Jeep can not provide one because of being on backorder for more than a year.

The abs module on my vehicle is faulty. Jeep is no longer manufacturing the part needed for repair. My vehicle is drivable but no longer has abs. This is affecting a very large number of Jeep Wranglers and stallantis / Jeep refuses to make a replacement part available or issue a recall.
