I own a 2018 Jeep Wrangler that my 19 year old son drives for college. While driving, the vehicle jerked and became sluggish. There were no warning lights illuminated. I became aware that the front brake rotors had overheated again. I had the front right brake caliber and brake line changed back in 2024 and the issue has recurred this year. I had a local mechanic change the front brake pads and rotors for both front tires and caliber to right front side only in April/2026 and the issue has started again today. The vehicle was taken back to local mechanic to be diagnosed again. He stated that the brake fluid was unable to properly bleed through the brake line restricting air to fully purge from the hydraulic system, which can result in incomplete bleeding, reduced braking performance, uneven pad wear, brake drag, or brake fade and is part of the reason for burning smell near right front tire. He added that car isn’t safe to drive in this condition due to safety concerns of accidents due to inability to properly brake or even a fire. Vehicle hasn’t been repaired due to cost and I will attempt to contact manufacturer. The initial mileage reading when this issue occurred in 2024 was 90,000 miles. The mileage as of this complaint is 112,392.

Brake, abs and traction dash lights come on permanently. Code pulled is c2200, abs internal failure. Replacement or repair parts unavailable due to manufacturer hold due to engineering issues. Can’t drive due to nc safety inspection fail.

Abs module error , this has been on order for over a year, danger puts Jeep in limp mode under hard acceleration stalls out, danger when merging into traffic, manufacture has it under engineering review to keep from issuing a recall please investigate,.

Abs module failure without cause. New modules no longer being produced. Lack of anti braking system is a huge safety concern. Vehicle was looked at by a mechanic. Brake light, stability control light, and abs light all came on at the same time at the time of failure. Vehicle was in park and turned on at the time of failure.

Front brake caliper became loose, moved away from the rotor, resulted in the caliper grinding against the inner wheel. Inspection by mechanic revealed missing caliper mounting bolts on both driver and passenger side of brakes. Front caliper mounting bolts were replaced with oem-spec hardware, torqued to spec, with blue loctite added to threads of fasteners. The mechanic noted many well-documented failures of the same nature on Jeep jk, jl, and gladiator models, although no formal recalls have been issued.

Abs module all ready replaced rear wheel speed censer and connector replaced wires abs goes off and the brakes sound grinding noise and vehilcle shakes. Brakes and rotors are new. Chrysler is doing nothing about replacement abs modules. This is a safety hazard it has now happened a few times and we can’t find new modules. Also when you do find a module it won’t flash and respond to the computer on vehicle this has happened five different times now thank yoy.

The vehicle experienced a sudden, catastrophic, un-commanded emergency braking event while moving in active traffic. Despite the driver's seatbelt being securely buckled, the vehicle overrode its own safety programming, dropping all propulsion, violently engaging the electronic brakes, and forcing the transmission straight into park at low speeds at an intersection. This occurred immediately after the vehicle received an official factory high-voltage hybrid safety recall remedy last month. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealership, where a diagnostic scan logged a false 'door ajar / autopark' fault code. The safety system critically malfunctioned by ignoring a buckled seatbelt to execute a dangerous emergency stop in traffic. The vehicle is completely unsafe to operate on public roads due to an unpredictable brake and powertrain safety override defect. The manufacturer is currently refusing to provide direct-bill rental assistance while the vehicle sits undiagnosed on the dealer lot.

2013 Jeep Wrangler. Abs module internal failure code c2200. 3 lights are constantly lit on the dashboard. No abs on this Jeep, making it unsafe in the rain and snow. No way to have this part repaired anymore, nor does the dealership offer it. Shameful and shocking that mopar isn't dealing with this problem. Many, many Jeep owners are dealing with this problem. When will we see a recall??.

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

The dash lights constantly indicate that the abs and traction control systems are activated. The vehicle is also producing code c1073, indicating that the abs control module must be replaced, however mopar does not have any replacements, new or rebuilt, available.

C2200 abs control module internal failure. Anti lock brake, traction control stop working. Vehicle can go into limp mode and not be drivable. Apparently due to safety concerns replacment parts are not produced by the manufacturer. This causing the vehilce to not be driven safely.

The contact owns a 2016 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the abs and traction control warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic 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. In addition, the contact was informed that the parts were in back order indefinitely. The contact was advised that she could drive the vehicle at her own risk. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 67,108.

Traction control, abs, and brake light all illuminated, then on 5/3/2026 while driving the speedometer quit completely. Replaced all 4 wheel speed sensors to see if it would help and nothing changed.

I purchased my 2015 Jeep Wrangler approximately a year and a half ago. At the time of purchase, the abs, traction control, and brake warning lights were illuminated on the dashboard. The dealership told me these lights were caused by a simple sensor issue that was on backorder and would be resolved later. About two weeks ago, while driving, my Jeep suddenly went into limp mode. I had two independent mechanics inspect the vehicle, and both confirmed that the diagnostic codes pointed to a failed abs module. I then contacted the dealership where I purchased the vehicle. They acknowledged that the abs module is still on backorder but claimed they did not believe the module was the issue, despite the diagnostic results from two separate mechanics. The abs module has now completely failed, and the vehicle is unsafe to drive. The abs, traction control, and brake systems are not functioning, and the Jeep cannot be operated normally. I am unable to drive my vehicle due to this safety?critical failure. This appears to be a widespread issue with abs modules on this model year, and replacement parts are unavailable. I am submitting this report so NHTSA can investigate whether this abs module failure represents a broader safety defect that requires action.

While driving approximately 35 mph on a 4 lane major roadway, the vehicle suddenly shut off in motion, resulting in a complete loss of power. This included loss of power steering and the abs system. The vehicle effectively locked up, and a message appeared on the display instructing me to place the vehicle in park. As a result of the shutdown, the vehicle lost all propulsion and came to a complete stop in an active travel lane of a high-speed roadway. There was no ability to maneuver the vehicle out of traffic. I could not steer it to safety, restart it, or shift it into neutral. The vehicle was fully immobilized in the roadway. This left me and my family stopped in an active lane of traffic, exposed to oncoming vehicles traveling at highway speeds, creating an immediate and serious risk of collision. At the time of the incident, I had two children in the vehicle. We remained in this dangerous position until police arrived and an hour after. The vehicle ultimately had to be removed from the roadway with assistance, as it was not operable. During the event, there was a total loss of electrical power. The critical safety systems, including brake lights, were not functioning during the shutdown. After attempting to reset the battery, the vehicle continued to malfunction. It would not properly turn on or off, wouldn't shift into neutral and remained unable to be moved. This is the third occurrence of this; once was while driving at highway speeds. All warning lights, including the battery light, were illuminated. The vehicle is subject to an active recall; however, I have been informed that there is currently no available remedy . Despite this, the dealership and stellantis advised that the vehicle was safe to operate. Given the repeated loss of power while driving, the inability to move the vehicle out of an active roadway, and the absence of an available repair, this vehicle presents a serious safety risk and I should be able to turn this vehicle in with refund.

The contact owns a 2009 Jeep Wrangler. The contact received notifications of NHTSA campaign numbers: 10v236000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 16v290000 (air bags), and 18v021000 (air bags); however, the parts required to complete the recall repairs were not available. The contact stated that the dealer had been contacted several times. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer confirmed that parts were not yet available and were on back order. The dealer informed the contact that parts for NHTSA campaign number: 10v23600 (service brakes, hydraulic); had been discontinued. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and confirmed that the parts were discontinued. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repairs. The contact had not experienced a failure.

While braking at low speed approaching a stoplight, the vehicle did not slow as expected when I removed my foot from the accelerator. As I applied increasing brake pressure, the engine revved and the vehicle continued to move forward into the intersection. The brakes appeared to be working but had to counter engine power, and the tires briefly chirped. I shifted into neutral to stop the vehicle and then backed out of the intersection. If another vehicle had been stopped in front of me, a collision would likely have occurred. The vehicle was in fuel and oil refresh mode (form) with max regenerative braking enabled at the time of the incident. There were no warning lights or messages. I provided dashcam video to the dealer. The dealer was unable to duplicate the condition but reported that stored vehicle data showed abs activation during the incident. The dealer has documented the event as a safety concern and reported it to the manufacturer. This appears to involve unintended forward movement or application of engine power while braking, creating a significant safety risk.

On 4/09/26 my trac control/ abs and brake light illuminated on the dash and the hill descent assist flashes . When diagnosed at shop code c2200 was found. ( module internal failure). This is a known problem to stallantis who has had problems for several years now with this module. They now have an engineering hold on it with no plans of fixing the situation. This is a mandatory safety equipment and a national recall should be made, and they should have to fix their equipment. How is it safe or even legal to let this type of thing happen?.

I have a 2013 Jeep Wrangler with 180,000 miles. I never off road the vehicle, but after driving on a dirt road, the stability control kicked in during a turn. At the start of the next drive after that, there were 3 lights on the dashboard: brake, abs, stability control. Connecting the jscan app to the vehicle, the abs module is completely unresponsive and the vehicle gives a c2200 error code. There were no symptoms of this issue before this event. This vehicle is available to be inspected any time. Lack of abs is a very dangerous safety concern, as neither of my children have ever had to drive a vehicle without abs. After some research, this seems to be a very common problem. After some age and heat cycles, the electronics in the module become weak, and my single use of the stability control apparently is enough to push the weak electronics over the edge and destroy the module. This has been confirmed through several companies who repair these modules, such as [xxx] , who no longer repairs these modules, apparently because the computer chips are no longer made, and I have heard stories about the chip maker going out of business during covid. It was also confirmed by a local Jeep specialist, and the dealer parts department also tells the same story, people have been waiting on this module for over 2 years now. A manufacturer of this size with this many vehicles affected by such a safety issue should step up and commission another chip manufacturer to make these vehicles road worthy again. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

Keep abs / traction control module defective with no replacement available.

Parked my 2023 Wrangler 4xe for about three hours. When I started driving again the brake pedal was hard and it took way longer than normal to stop. No warning lights, no codes on the obd reader. Toggling max regen on and off made no difference. Power cycling the vehicle didn’t fix it. Pads are warm so the calipers are engaging, but there’s very little stopping force behind them. I would guess there is an electrical issue with the regenerative breaking system or brake vacuum.

2015 Jeeps have know issues with the tipm and abs module. There have been recalls for these on dodges and other model Jeeps. Something needs to be done to fix this. You can't even get a new abs module for this Jeep and haven't been able to for years. Please help us. This is a huge safety concern!!.

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 module error: c2200 causes Jeep to go into limp mode when accelerator is pushed hard. Near miss on collision, lack of abs causes skidding and possible loss of control.

The abs module (68259556ad) on my 2016 jku is not working (code c2200) and the part is not available anywhere. I tried buying online and reaching out to a dealership, but everyone acknowledges stellantis doesn’t have the part available. There are posts on Jeep forums from 2023 from people with the same issue which is causing their Jeeps to go into limp mode at highway speeds. I feel unsafe driving my car and there’s no current way to fix this issue.

A deer jumped in front of me and the brakes locked up. The Jeep spun 180 degrees before it stopped. Nothing was damaged and I traveled on. About a week later the abs and traction control lights started blinking. Within a day they were solid and the cruise control stopped also. I researched and found the speed sensor was a common problem. I carried it to a ase certified mechanic for the sensor to be replaced. The sensor was replaced but the lights didn’t go out. It was put on the computer and noted it was the abs control module part number 68259556ad. The problem is that the part is in such demand that it will take months to get it. So this seems to be a recurring issue for Jeeps. I am now riding with no abs because mopar can’t keep up with the demand.

Driving safety concern. Important my new vehicle (Jeep Wrangler rubicon x) 2026 abruptly shut down as I was driving and veering the steering wheel to the left. All the vehicle power was suddenly gone (electrical, engine, etc) without notice and the vehicle made an aggressive total stop immediately . The steering wheel was hard and the brakes blocked after it lose power and shut down. This has happened twice now. Fortunately I was driving at low speeds and there where no vehicles behind me. However I don’t want to drive the car anymore as this can lead to a serious accident. The first time this happened was two week ago. I took the vehicle to the dealership where I bought it and after 2 weeks of checking the vehicle they returned it to me saying that they couldn’t find anything. 5 days after I got the vehicle back from the dealership this happened again today. The problem persists and it’s a very concerning.

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

Anti-lock brake system stopped working rendering the car inoperable. The first incident: about 5 years ago the abs engaged the brakes while driving almost causing a collision. This incident occurred in guaynabo, pr. After this incident the abs module stopped working but the car was still operable. A week ago the pcm lost communication with the abs module bringing the car into "limp mode" (stuck in 3rd gear until y did not longer engaged the transmission. Also the speedometer stopped working. ) this happened while driving on a Sunday on busy road. This has been a common issue with Jeep Wranglers made from 2012 to 2018. The company at this moment is not producing replacement parts (abs modules) for these vehicles leaving owners without any way to fix or use their cars. Abs module dtc's: -c2200 -u0100 -u0141 -u0126 -u0002 while scanning the module comes and goes offline.
