The ABS control module on my 2014 Jeep Wrangler JK failed approximately four years ago. Since that time, I have been unable to obtain a replacement module through Jeep/Mopar, leaving the vehicle without properly functioning ABS and related electronic stability/traction-control safety systems. I was initially told the replacement part was on backorder and waited for an extended period (August 2022). In January 2026, I contacted my Jeep dealer checking on the status of my quote q96683 from 12/3/25. I was required to prepay $1,342.54 for the replacement module, which I did. It is now September 2026, approximately eight months after I prepaid, and the part still has not been supplied. I have not been given a reliable delivery date and there is no ETA. My concern goes beyond an ordinary parts shortage. This is a failure of a safety-critical braking component, and Jeep owners appear to be experiencing extremely long waits because the manufacturer cannot provide replacement ABS modules. My vehicle has needed this repair for approximately four years. A manufacturer should have a reasonable means of repairing a failed ABS/stability-control system in a vehicle of this age. Owners should not have to operate vehicles indefinitely without these safety functions—or stop using otherwise serviceable vehicles—because the manufacturer cannot supply the necessary component. I am asking NHTSA to investigate failures of the ABS control module in 2014 Jeep Wranglers, the availability of replacement modules, and whether the number of failures and inability to obtain replacement parts represent an unreasonable safety risk. I also ask NHTSA to determine whether a recall or other manufacturer action is warranted. I have documentation of the dealer order and my approximately $1,342.54 prepayment for the replacement module and can provide it if requested.

Have had this issue since I believe 2020 or 2021. Either way a long time. This issue concerns the ABS control module failure. The warning lights (Brake, ABS and traction control) are lit showing unavailable / issue. The computer is throwing code C2200. The parts to repair are not available. Online forums show this is a big issue within the Jeep Wrangler community. It has been reported that Internally, Jeep has acknowledged the issue by placing new inventory on an "engineering review" hold after admitting that a massive batch of newly manufactured replacement parts had fatal software flaws.

The ABS module has failed and is apparently impossible to locate. I have been working with a mechanic for 8 months now, and both the dealership and MOPAR cannot provide a date for either a replacement solution or parts availability. This seems to be a widespread issue for the Wranglers from this period. Stellantis should at least provide an alternative. Thanks,

The plastic oil filter housing was leaking oil onto my exhaust I had to quit driving it because of fear of a FIRE, SO MY QUESTION IS : IF YOU HAVE OIL RUNNING DOWN AND DRIPPING OF YOUR EXHAUST AND YOU GUYS WONT RECALL IT BECAUSE YOU SAY ITS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE? YOU GUYS ARE NUTS, THE MANUFACTURE SHOULD BE MADE TO MAN UP AND FIX THIS PROBLEM INSTEAD OF LEAVING THE CONSUMER STUCK WITH A PROBLEM THAT THEY CREATED AND AN EMPTY WALLET AS WELL, SIMPLY NOT FAIR MANY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN STUCK WITH THIS PROBLEM TO DEAL WITH WITHOUT ANY HELP FROM THE ENGINEERS THAT CAUSED IT, MAN UP AND MAKE EM TAKE RESPONSIBILITY IF NOT THEN WHY DOES THE NHTSA EVEN EXIST AT ALL

XXX engine light on in addition to the continual abs, brake, traction lights as well as vehicle going into limp mode. Took it immediately to local automotive services shop and received ABS control Module failure is now sending error to other sensors to put Jeep in limp mode and inoperable. OEM Part still on back order and unable to obtain from Jeep. I contacted Mt. Pleasant Jeep dealership service department as well and unable to get the part. No part available and unknown timeframe which leaves me to garage the Jeep while waiting for a new part to become available.

The ABS module on my vehicle has gone bad. I have no antilock brakes, no traction control and my cruise control no longer works. Jeep no longer produces the module needed to repair my vehicle. Their customer service department refuses to help because I have no proof that I’ve attempted to purchase the part that isn’t available for purchase. There are thousands of people with this same issue. I’m also unable to sell or trade this vehicle because this is a major safety issue and it has diminished the value significantly. Please help me.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.
