Wheel speed sensor. Circuit current out of range
As a result of recall 94b and FCA US LLC’s failure to act/provide remedy for over 1 year. I am reporting an ongoing safety issue with my vehicle involving the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system. Since January 2025, the vehicle has intermittently spun out, particularly in cold or wet conditions, creating a serious safety hazard. FCA acknowledged the defect but repeatedly stated no remedy was available. I attempted to bring the vehicle to dealerships, provided diagnostic scans and photos, sent multiple letters (including certified mail), and followed all escalation procedures. Despite this, FCA has denied a buyback, provided no safe alternative or loaner vehicle, and failed to respond to communications. Representatives have been inconsistent, unprofessional, and dismissive — including laughing during calls while I reported the defect and impending winter hazards. The defect remains unresolved, the vehicle is unsafe to operate, and FCA’s repeated denials and lack of communication prevent any path to a safe resolution. I am filing this complaint to document FCA’s mishandling and to request that the federal safety agency require them to take appropriate action. The full detailed summary and supporting documentation are attached.
The HCU/ABS module falsely reads pressure in the primary circuit. The brake lights illuminate when brakes are not depressed, leading to risk of crashes. The car may be shifted in and out of park without depressing the brake, risking rollaway. The ABS is non-functional, a critical safety item standard on most vehicles that prevents crashes. The recall was issued NOV 7th 2024, over a year ago. The dealership states there are no parts available to fix the issue and the recall is listed as incomplete [Part 573 Safety Recall Report 24V‑838]. This is extremely dangerous and unsatisfactory that the manufacturer will not remedy the issue. The warning lamps illuminated indicating this issue are "SERVICE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL" and the brake lights remain illuminated even when the brakes aren't depressed, including after the vehicle has been turned off. These warning indications first appeared on my vehicle within the last 2 months. The brake light issue started December 2024.
In November 2024, I went to get into my 2019 Jeep Cherokee (17,000 miles). At that time, numerous lights started flashing on the vehicle dash (start-stop, stability control and check engine). I took the vehical to the nearest Jeep dealership, Valor Ford in Junction City. They indicated this was a known issue but unresolved by Jeep (received recall notice two weeks later). I was leaving for vacation and would be back in two weeks, rather than leave the car sit at the dealership I offered to take it home and bring it back when I returned. I was told by the technician that was not advisable because my brakes could go out. I of course decided to leave at the dealership. Upon return, they indicated my jeep could be picked up. My husband spoke with the technician because we had received the recall notice by then and asked how they fixed the problem when Jeep had said there was no solution yet. He, the technician, indicated they had ordered the part which is the same part that went out previously so it wasn't really fixed. We have been waiting over a year, I will only drive locally because I am afraid of the ramifications of this part. Not only is it not fixed but they charged us $1,200 to not fix our car and refused reimbursement. This was our vehicle to travel in our retirement years and for the last year it has been an anchor.
My ESC, ABS, and check engine lights have been on for months due to this recall that has no fix.

Electronic stability control light was on as well as check engine. Was advised by service dept at dealership as well as manufacture to the remedy was to replace the abs module until there was a proper solution to the recall and I would have to pay and submit reimbursement ti manufacturer. Had abs module replaced and am now being told I cannot be reimbursed until there is a solution for the recall. Vehicle was not safe to operate with no abs or electronic stability control.

FCA US has failed to make parts available to remedy the federal safety agency recall 24V‑838 in over 12 months.
serious safety defect that has remains unremedied since recall Z48 (FCA 22V‑426) issued in 2022. This defect, addressed again in recall 94B (FCA 24V‑838), continues to disable the electronic stability control, making the vehicle unsafe to operate. FCA has had considerable time for the opportunity to fix since the first recall, and defective conditions were not repaired and still exist. FCA has been very dismissive with the several complaints I’ve field. I’ve been promised call backs every step of the way, even specific time frames and still have had to chase them down when I am not responded to. FCA issued “do not sell” orders on November 14, 2024, preventing me from trading or selling the vehicle without significant financial loss. I cannot accept any further proposed fixes, since no effective repair exists, and the vehicle remains dangerous.

I am filing this complaint against Chrysler (Stellantis N.V.) concerning an unresolved Factory Recall #94B affecting my 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee. This recall has been active since September 2024, and as of October 31, 2025, no manufacturer-provided repair or remedy is available. As a result, my vehicle has now failed the Pennsylvania State Inspection due to a malfunctioning ABS—a defect directly covered by the factory recall. After the inspection failure, I took the vehicle to an authorized Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep/Ram dealership in Pennsylvania, where I was informed that the necessary parts and repair instructions are still unavailable from the manufacturer, and therefore, the recall repair cannot be completed. I have made two prior attempts to resolve this directly with Chrysler’s Customer Care department: Case #91837321 – Initial recall complaint Case #91655604 – Follow-up complaint regarding delay in remedy availability Despite these efforts, there has been no progress and no communication from Chrysler outlining when or how the repair will be available. This has left me without a drivable vehicle that cannot legally pass state inspection.
Recall 94B has been outstanding for a year now. I feel this is an unreasonable amount of time.

For nearly a year, I have been unable to drive my vehicle due to a serious safety recall involving the HCU/ABS module. Despite the known risks — including false brake light illumination, disabled ABS and Electronic Stability Control (ESC), and the ability to start and shift out of park without pressing the brake pedal — the manufacturer has failed to provide a remedy or even a timeline for repair. This delay is not only unacceptable, it is dangerous. I am a veteran who needs to drive to appointments frequently and have been having a lack of proper care because of this as well. The safety risks outlined in the recall are not hypothetical. They represent real, daily threats to myself, my family, and others on the road. A vehicle that can move without brake input poses a hazard even when parked. A disabled ABS and ESC system compromises control in emergency situations. And brake lights that activate erroneously can mislead other drivers, increasing the likelihood of a collision. These are not minor inconveniences — they are critical failures that could result in injury or death. What makes this situation even more urgent is that I am expecting a child. I cannot afford to gamble with safety, especially when the risks persist even while the vehicle is stationary. The fact that I’ve been unable to use my car for almost a year has disrupted my life and left me without reliable transportation during a time when I need it most. The manufacturer’s lack of action — no repair, no interim solution/refund, no meaningful communication — reflects a failure to prioritize customer safety and well-being. This recall has not been handled in a timely or responsible manner. I am calling on the federal safety agency to take immediate steps to resolve this issue, provide a safe and functional vehicle or refund to ensure that no other families are left vulnerable due to inaction.
