2011 Jeep Patriot: ABS light or ABS activating

Filed Sep 7, 2026 · Brakes, Electrical · NC

I purchased my 2011 Jeep Patriot as a new vehicle on [XXX] in Fort Collins, Colorado. The vehicle has been appropriately maintained with the only one major repair (throttle body) to date. On [XXX], the ABS, traction control, and brake light on the dash board lit up upon cranking the vehicle and backing out of my driveway. I dropped the vehicle off the next morning for diagnostics at a local Meineke location. The vehicle eventually threw a C2220 code, which indicates the ABS module had an internal failure. Unfortunately for me, I’ve learned that Stellantis is no longer manufacturing the part. This has resulted in an increased cost to repair since new parts are hard to find and very expensive, third-party parts are also hard to find, and companies that could repair and refurbish the part were no longer doing so due to challenges in getting the right parts for refurbishment. (I called UpFix on 8/28/26 to confirm their inability to repair the part.) My particular case is not an isolated event. Apparently this is a known issue and one that has not triggered a recall or any legal action against Jeep and their parent companies for failure to address a known defect and manufacture/reengineer known failures in their vehicles. If I was to take my vehicle back without the repair, I would be endangering myself, my young child, and the public as a result since the ABS and several other safety features are disabled due to the internal failure. Unfortunately, the repair will be costly and by no means guarantees a long-term fix (was told maybe I’d get 1-2 years before the part fails again). I received two quotes - one is for a used parts and the other is the exact same but new. The cost difference is substantial and seems like straight price gouging as a result of Stellantis’ decision to NOT continue the manufacturing of parts to fix the problem on my vehicle and many other of their brands. I have also filed a complaint with the NCDOJ. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

While driving all of a sudden the car acts like it is dying for a short period of time and the following lights come on. The traction control, ABS, and 4wd lights. The car clears up in a matter of seconds and runs allright after that. However in certain circumstances this could cause a fatal accident. Where I was it didn't matter but if you were in traffic or pulling out in front of a vehicle and didn't have much time, it could matter very much. All 4 of the wheel sensors have gone bad and now I'm on the 5th one. They are not all the same and not everytime do they cause a hesitation but sometimes they do and twice the car almost went dead. This is an accident waiting to happen and should be corrected.
