Your Jeep's ABS module is producing an error code (C2200) that puts the vehicle into limp mode when you accelerate hard, reducing power and responsiveness. This caused a near-miss collision because the ABS system isn't working properly, which means your brakes may skid and you could lose control of the vehicle during hard braking. The ABS module will likely need to be diagnosed with a scanner and either reprogrammed or replaced.

NHTSA #: 11723384

Your ABS module has failed, causing the anti-lock braking system to apply brakes to wheels unnecessarily, which creates steering problems, overheated brake pads, and vibrations in all four wheels. The replacement ABS module is on back order with no parts available in the U.S., making your vehicle unable to pass safety inspections and unsafe to drive. Fixing this issue requires replacing the defective ABS module, but the part is currently unavailable through normal channels.

Your ABS (anti-lock brake) module may be failing, which could cause unexpected braking issues and loss of control while driving. The part is on permanent backorder and unavailable from Jeep, creating a safety hazard. Addressing this will likely require replacing the ABS module, though availability may be a challenge.

Your ABS (anti-lock braking) module is failing, which triggers a C2200 error code and lights up the ABS, Brake, and Traction Control warning lights on your dashboard. This prevents your anti-lock braking system from functioning properly, which is a safety concern for braking performance. Fixing this will likely require replacing the ABS module, which your dealership may need to order.

Your ABS (anti-lock brake system) warning light is illuminated on your dashboard. When you took it to a mechanic, they referred you to the dealership, where staff discovered that the required ABS module is not currently available from the manufacturer. This means getting the system repaired may require waiting for parts to be back in stock or finding an alternative solution.

Your ABS (anti-lock braking system) module has failed and needs replacement, but Jeep says the part has been unavailable for over two years. Without ABS, your brakes are harder to control in wet conditions like rain, which increases stopping distance and reduces traction control. The repair will require replacing the ABS module once parts availability is resolved.

Your brake warning lights (ABS, traction control, and parking brake) came on when starting the vehicle, and your brake pedal became hard to press. You also noticed the transmission was shifting roughly. A mechanic diagnosed the problem as a failed ABS module. The issue occurred at 80,000 miles and wasn't repaired by the dealer despite notification. Fixing this will likely involve replacing the ABS module and possibly servicing the transmission.

Mopar replacement part number 68259556AD, but it is on back order nationally for over a year. Jeep dealer will not take to fix. Chrysler Dodge doing nothing about it, forcing owners to drive vehicles without ABS or traction control. This is not right with customers as we need car to work or it is a 2 ton paper weight.

I have a 2015 Jeep Wrangler that has the brake, ABS and traction control lights on. It is a FAILURE OF THE ABS MODULE. When these lights are on, these systems are disabled. Jeep has told me that this part is on back order, due to a high failure rate. It is a safety issue when these systems are down. I have been told that some customers have waited a year or longer for the part, with some selling the vehicles. I think this problem needs a recall.

ABS Module has gone bad. Replacements are not being made, and it is unable to be rebuilt. This forces me to drive with the anti-lock brake system not working. This is my only means of transportation and I have to drive it to work to pay the grocery bill. I feel unsafe driving it, but I have no other choice.

ABS light, stability control light and brake light on instrument cluster is illuminated. Took vehicle to dealership. They stated that the ABS module is faulty and needs to be replaced. The person at the dealership said that he could not say whether or not the vehicle is safe to drive. Did a little research and found that this part has failed on many vehicles, and there are over 500 of this item backordered across the country. The dealership has no idea when to expect replacement part.

Dear NHTSA Safety Team, I’m writing to formally report a serious and widespread safety issue affecting Jeep Wrangler vehicles. The problem centers on the failure of the ABS module, which triggers diagnostic code C2200. This defect disables critical safety systems including ABS and traction control, and causes the vehicle to shake violently—often mistaken for warped rotors. Jeep has discontinued production of the replacement ABS module, and the part has been on backorder for years. Today alone, my dealership received three separate calls from owners experiencing the same issue. This is clearly not an isolated incident. The consequences of this failure include: - Loss of ABS and traction control functionality - Unstable braking behavior - Increased risk of collision - No available replacement part from the manufacturer This poses a clear and present danger to drivers, passengers, and others on the road. I urge NHTSA to investigate this defect and compel Jeep to issue a recall or provide a viable solution. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My daughter then drove on the highway home to pick up two children she was babysitting ,while pulling up to a friend's house she was told there was a grinding and scraping noise coming from the front left rim, we then told her not to drive the vehicle. At that a friend's mechanic removed the wheel and found the bolt missing that was supposedly ordered and installed with two test drives, so the caliper was flopping around off the rotor putting my child's life in danger. Our mechanic renewed the bolt and properly bled the brakes that Garavel’s mechanic failed to do also, What he also found was a front axle seal leak and a defective tie rod.

In August of 2024, the ABS light came on in my 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (manual transmission). I took it to my mechanic who reported that the error code indicated that the ABS module was bad and needed replacing. We authorized the repair and waited for him to call with a timeline for it to be ready. He was unable to locate any parts from any of his normal suppliers and called the Jeep dealerships only to be told that the part was on an "engineering hold" and unavailable for purchase. He asked the dealership service department about a timeline for the part and was told end of September 2024. That date then became November 2024, January 2025, and most recently March 20, 2025 with no part ordered yet. Jeep has failed to provide a replacement part or repair option for this critical component that is failing in multiple year and models of Jeep Wranglers and the risk to injury is significant if it fails while the car is being driven.

**Incident Description:** While driving my Jeep Wrangler, the ABS warning light illuminated on the dashboard. Upon further inspection and research, it was determined that the ABS control module had failed, affecting the vehicle's braking system. This failure poses a significant safety risk, as it compromises the anti-lock braking function and overall stability during emergency stops or adverse road conditions. I have discovered that this issue is not isolated to my vehicle; it has been reported as a recurring problem among Jeep Wrangler owners on various forums and online communities. Many owners have shared similar experiences with the ABS control module failing and the warning light appearing. To date, the problem has not been resolved. The vehicle has been inspected by an independent service center, which confirmed the failure of the ABS control module. No prior symptoms or warning lamps were observed until the ABS warning light appeared. This appears to be a systemic issue affecting numerous Jeep Wranglers, warranting further investigation and potentially a recall to ensure driver safety.

I WAS DRIVING ON A PAVED ROAD AND NEEDED TO STEP ON THE BRAKES TO AVOID STRIKING A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. MY ABS BREAKS FAILED TO WORK AND I HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID STRIKING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. IMMEDIATELY AFTER THIS INCIDENT MY ABS LIGHT AND SLIP LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON MY DASH BOARD AND REMAINED ON. I HAVE THE NEXT AVAILABLE APPOINTMENT ON THE 19TH OF FEBRUARY AT FIELDS JEEP IN GLENVIEW AND I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE THIS UNSAFE VEHICLE UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED. WITH THAT BEING SAID I NEED TO TAKE OFF OF WORK WITHOUT PAY UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED.

2015 JEEP WRANGLER, IN MOTION, TRAVELING STRAIGHT, ON HIGHWAY (ROADS WERE WET FROM RECENT RAIN) & APPROACHING TRAFFIC SIGNAL AT MAJOR INTERSECTION. SIGNAL CHANGED FROM GREEN TO YELLOW. I PUSHED THE THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW DOWN. THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND, THE JEEP DID NOT SLOW DOWN. THE JEEP CONTINUED TRAVELING STRAIGHT. I PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL AT LEAST TWO MORE TIMES, DOWN TO THE FLOOR. THE BRAKES DID NOT RESPOND. THERE WAS A VERY LOUD "GRINDING" NOISE COMING FROM THE JEEP WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED INTO THE INTERSECTION WHERE IT CAME TO A STOP. THE BRAKES DID NOT SLOW THIS VEHICLE DOWN, THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK! THERE WAS NO CONTROL OF THIS VEHICLE'S SPEED. DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT. CHECKED OUT THIS JEEP THE NEXT DAY & FOUND NO PROBLEM WITH THIS JEEP & COULD NOT DUPLICATE CONCERN. WHEN I LATER DROVE THE JEEP HOME, THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON. FCA, CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE WAS NOTIFIED. CHRYSLER ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER & CASE MANAGER. THE CASE MANAGER INFORMED ME THAT SHE CALLED THE SERVICE/DEALERSHIP (WHO SERVICED THE JEEP THE DAY AFTER THE EVENT) AND SHE WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MGR. "JEEP IS OPERATING PERFECTLY & IS UP TO MY SATISFACTION". I INFORMED CHRYSLER, VIA PHONE & EMAIL, THAT THAT WAS NOT THE CASE AT ALL! I SENT CHRYSLER A WRITTEN, DETAILED REPORT OF EXACTLY WHAT OCCURRED WITH THIS VEHICLE. I ALSO STATED THAT THIS INCIDENT COULD HAVE ENDED VERY DIFFERENTLY, WITH INJURIES AND OR DEATH! I NEVER HEARD FROM CHRYSLER AGAIN. AS OF TODAY, CHRYSLER HAS NOT RETURNED ANY OF MY PHONE MESSAGES.
