2011 Jeep Wrangler: ABS light or ABS activating

Filed Nov 7, 2026 · Airbags, Brakes · FL

I am filing a formal safety complaint regarding multiple safety-related issues with my 2011 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara. My vehicle is experiencing ABS and airbag warning lights, along with an illuminated BRAKE warning light on the dashboard. In addition, the emergency/parking brake is not functioning properly and fails to securely hold the vehicle when engaged. These issues raise serious concerns about the reliability of the vehicle’s braking and occupant protection systems. The ABS warning light suggests a possible malfunction of the anti-lock braking system, while the airbag warning light raises concerns about whether the airbags will function as intended during a collision. The parking brake failure also presents a potential rollaway hazard. I am concerned that these problems may represent broader safety defects affecting other Jeep Wrangler owners. Given the importance of these systems, I respectfully request that the federal safety agency investigate these issues, review similar owner complaints, and determine whether a safety recall or corrective action is warranted. Thank you for your attention to these safety concerns.

My abs control module is not functioning. The car does not stop properly in wet weather..the traction is effected. The abs control module was inspected by a dealership. The control module is non communicative to the abs module. The brake light, ABS light and the traction light are all on, all the time. I cannot get the vehicle inspected..If rain is dangerous, the upcoming winter is going to be treacherous.. I am extremely concerned for my safety. I’m having a difficult time finding the part for the year of my vehicle and I can’t fix this problem with out mfr intervention. I wrote to the Jeep manufacturer in Michigan for assistance in locating this part and have not heard back. My vehicle is not the only vehicle to have this problem and there should be a recall because the breaking system not functioning is a huge safety issue.

I was driving and the traction control light, down-hill decent, abs, and parking brake light came on. Diagnostics came back to the brake module being defective.

Brake, abs and traction dash lights come on permanently. Code pulled is C2200, abs internal failure. Replacement or repair parts unavailable due to manufacturer hold due to engineering issues. Can’t drive due to NC safety inspection fail.

My jeep wrangler Abs module has failed and needs to be replaced. But Jeep decided not to make this part anymore and now me and a LOT of others can’t get a new abs Module. My jeep is way too dangerous to drive now. When accelerating from a stop the vehicle barely kicks in like the tires don’t know what direction to move. When I’m coming to a stop the breaks don’t work right due to the ABS module. This is a big safety concern and jeep needs to be held accountable and fix this issue. This is a major issue and needs to addressed before people get into accidents. I’m sure some people already have.

ABS Module problem that was affecting the performance of my 2011 Jeep Wrangler JKU to the point I almost had to stop driving it cause it wouldn't change out of 1st gear. This particular module in my jeep is on back order due to engineer review and the release date keeps getting pushed out. Dealer has to program VIN to match the Jeep if and when they ever get any in stock. The part needed is Anti-Lock Brake System Module - Mopar (68089120AB) I have found similar parts on Amazon, but I see prices from $500 - $3000.

ABS issues lights came on due to malfunctioning part. The part is unavailable and appears to no longer be available. Failure appeared a year ago and have been trying to find someone to replace. After taking to multiple shops, the last one finally told us the part is no longer available. With this being part of the braking system, it is very important to have working properly!

There is a known issue for these Jeep Wrangler (in my case a 2011 model) with the ABS module going bad. Unfortunately, the part is unavailable for purchase. None to be found anywhere. If you contact Jeep they tell you they are being produced anymore and basically good luck. On top of that the companies that repair them can no longer do it because they cant get the chips to repair. We need the option of buying a new one OR at the very least they need to produce the chips to fix. SOME KIND OF SOLUTION! When the module is bad, the ABS system/stability control system doesn't work!

I have an ABS control module internal failure, code C2200. There are no replacements available through dealer. Also, no shops to send module to for repair. My only option is EBay, where I have tried for replacement four times and cannot get the part number needed for my particular vehicle and year. The vehicle is not safe to commute to work, much less for traversing with my family inside.

ABS Control module failure. According to multiple Jeep dealers, this part has been on back order "for a very long time." I am unable to source a new part to repair my vehicle. Jeep should be able to provide replacement parts for critical safety items.

ABS Control Module needs to be replaced and Jeep is no longer making them. Very unsafe!

I have a 2011 jeep wrangler unlimited rubicon, I bought it new and it has not been off road except in a field or two and the only mud it has seen is from the road. It has not been lifted nor does it have over sized tires. I have had my electronic stability control light come on a few times in the 6 years I have had the vehicle, but it has always went right back off. It and the ABS came on a few weeks ago and will not go off, because it thinks my vehicle is sliding or spinning, the right front brakes will grab and it cuts the power to the engine. Today I was pulling out onto a main road and the brakes were acting like the ABS(that warning light is also on) was pulsing, I could feel it in the pedal. As I hit the gas to pull onto a very busy highway, the ESC light started flashing and cut the power to my engine and I could not go. As I was in a merge lane I was able to quickly cut to the right and get back off the road before I was hit by another vehicle. This is not the first time this has happened since this problem has been going on. I have had the jeep to the dealership and they ordered the wiring harness (broken wire they said) to fix it 2 weeks ago and they haven't contacted me that it is in yet. But I was told that because the wiring is ran through the frame they have to pull the body off to replace it. Yes it is going to cost a lot to fix, but I will also have to arrange to take it to the dealership(which is about an hour away) and until I am able to do that, I still have to drive it. I contacted jeep and talked to someone with their customer service about the concerns I have with being able to pull into traffic and the brakes holding me back and asking if there was a recall for this problem, but they said no and wasn't really concerned about it. And also, the warning lights come and go, flash and it won't go, as it did today when I tried to merge into traffic.
