Four problems related to brake sensor have been reported for the 2017 Jeep Wrangler. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
My dash keeps loosing power and when it does I have no breaks or lights. Everything drops to zero and then it will just jump back up again. My absolute, brakes,battery, seatbelt sensors keep going on and off. This happens moving and in park. Occasionally it won't start either. I have had the battery, alternator and starter tested. I was told there was a recall when getting it checked and inspection but upon calling the readership I was told no.
Abs and traction sensors come on when turning left. Abs sometimes deploys when these lights are on when braking. Shouldn't be happening in a vehicle that is 3 years old. I am hearing that this is a common problem in Jeep Wranglers from this time period.

Took 2016 Jeep Wrangler unlimited rubicon hard rock edition in for a recall repair of the airbag deployment sensor. Dealership wanted $50 to do the work because I had a winch installed. My Jeep hard rock edition was designed at the factory to receive this specific brand and model of winch so I refused to pay. I contacted Jeep by phone and asked them to intervene. They refused. I told the dealer I was leaving without having it fixed and my estate would sue them if I was killed in an accident and then he agreed to fix it free. They claimed they fixed it but when I drove off I immediately saw a warning message saying the right front turn signal lamp was out. I made u turn and went right back. They said they needed to order a part. I left. Then my battery drained down. I contacted Jeep and asked them to intervene. When I called to make another appointment to get the recall done right the dealership claimed they needed to order a part. I found out they did the recall repair by soldering wires. 2+ hours later they said all it needed was a bulb. I asked if they had to order bulbs. They said they stock them and denied ever telling me they needed to order a part. They admitted there was still an electrical problem but said that could have been the result of electrical modifications I had made and wanted me to pay them to troubleshoot it. The winch was the only electrical modification and it was installed almost 1 year before I took the Jeep in and I never had any problems before they did the recall work nor did they have any trouble starting it or see any warning messages when I took it in fir the recall in late August. Within 2 miles of driving I noticed the headlights flickering. Within 3 miles all the warning lights on the dash started wildly going off an on randomly and speedometer was going back and forth. They did not properly make the airbag sensor repair.
