2009 Jeep Wrangler: ABS light or ABS activating

Filed Aug 17, 2026 · Brakes · NJ

The ABS control module (part 68032358AC, ATE 25.0212-1155.4) on my 2009 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited failed at approximately 109,600 miles with stored diagnostic code C2200 (Anti-lock Brake Module Internal). The ABS, BRAKE, ESP/BAS, and traction control warning lights illuminate intermittently and the fault is permanently stored. When active, the vehicle loses anti-lock braking, electronic stability control, and traction control; base hydraulic braking remains. This internal module failure is widely reported among 2007–2018 Wrangler JK owners. The replacement part has also been discontinued — my mechanic and a Jeep dealership confirmed it is unavailable nationwide through the Mopar network, leaving no new manufacturer replacement available for this safety component. No crash or injury has occurred.

My wrangler's brakes locked up repeatedly and I took it to the dealer. They said that it needs a new ABS module but that part is not made anymore. This is a safety issue and I now have a car that I can't sell, can't fix, and can't drive. My wife almost got into an accident.

The ABS contoller has failed! This controls the Anti Lock system on the brakes. People can loose control of their vehicle with this failure. All dealers and parts warehouses are on back order with no ETA in sigh! This is very concerning and should be a safety recall because it is a well known maor Safety failure. Nobody has they part! This should be a safety issue and a recall just like the air bags/ sensors! All my lights on the dash came on.. ABS, Brakes, Anti Slip, Check Engine Light etc... I went right to my mechanice shop a few mile from were I was! It was a ABS Internal Failure! Obviosly a well known fact because everyone is having the same issue. This concerns braking and not locking up the brakes were you can loose control of the vehicle or no brake pedal response at all! Please look into it. We will be contacting our State Senanator to also bring up this concern. Thank you in advance for the help! Are we suppose to stop driving to work? No ETA in sight?

It has been a common known issue for at least the past year for Chrysler/JEEP to have faulty ABS modules in their vehicles. The ABS control module is a microprocessor that runs diagnostic checks of a vehicle's antilock braking system and processes information from wheel-speed sensors and the hydraulic brake system to determine when to release braking pressure at a wheel that's about to lock up and start skidding. It is probably one of the most important parts of a vehicle to make it safe. My local Jeep dealership said to me today that Chrysler plans to be able to allow them to order this part in February of 2023. I feel this is unacceptable, very unsafe and lives can be lost if the production of this part does not come sooner.

While crossing 2 lanes of on coming traffic in the middle of the day the ABS, esp and traction control lights came on and would not let me push the gas along with the right front brake "locking up". Because of the traction control coming on when I accelerate from a stop, even slowly, the engine responds as if I was slipping and losing traction, sputtering power and then all of a sudden it just stops. Now this has happened a few times within the last couple of days which is very scary considering there is absolutely no warning and can happen at any speed while driving. I have read some other forums on this issue and it seems to be pretty common with the make, model and year of this vehicle. This should not be taken lightly and should be fixed by chrysler as it is a manufacturing defect.
