Adaptive cruise control problems by model year
What owners say
The ABS module on my vehicle has gone bad. I have no antilock brakes, no traction control and my cruise control no longer works. Jeep no longer produces the module needed to repair my vehicle. Their customer service department refuses to help because I have no proof that I’ve attempted to purchase the part that isn’t available for purchase. There are thousands of people with this same issue. I’m also unable to sell or trade this vehicle because this is a major safety issue and it has diminished the value significantly. Please help me.
The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that the vehicle was difficult to stop. The traction control and cruise control features were inoperable. The parking brake, traction control, and ABS warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who determined the failure was caused by the ABS control module. An unknown local dealer was contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and opened a case. The approximate failure mileage was 161,000.
ABS Module component has failed which controls anti-lock brakes, cruise control and traction control. Jeep has no stock of ABS Modules, and no production dates for potential fix. Therefore these Jeeps have reverted a decade or two in safety losing their ABS, traction control and going into limp mode, which prevents you from driving (I have not experienced limp mode but neither do I wish for this to happen.)
The ABS Control module has been out on my vehicle since May 2025. Which is when the part was ordered by my dealership through MOPAR as the part is only sold through MOPAR directly. This part cannot be replaced through third party and requires a MOPAR agent to scan to the vehicle. This has been a systemic issue where it has been referred to as a “galactic back order” In the cars manual from Jeep when there are issues with the ABS control module it lists this as a critical safety issues and to take it directly to a dealership for service. When this issue is present it disables Electronic stability control (ESC), Anti locking braking system (ABS), Descent assist control, and cruise control. This increases safety issues especially when driving on slick winter or wet roadways. I wonder how many other people had an issue like this and contributed to an accident? When an inquiry is submitted to find out more about this issue from the order it’s going to be sent out on x date then x date comes and it gets pushed back now it’s y date then z. per stelantis this part is under their “engineer review” and now it’s unknown when they will release this part.
ABS Module Failure. No fix or replacement part available. No recall, no Anti- lock brakes ,no traction control , disables cruise control , no solution available per Jeep ?
I had repairs done to my Jeep in April 2024. At that time, I was made aware that my ABS control module was faulty and no longer functioning. I have been periodically checking with my mechanic and online to check the status of this part, only to find that it has been an ongoing issue with some models having this part unavailable since 2019. At the end of October 2025, I began having a major safety issue in which my Jeep's engine will shut off without warning and the only reason I will be aware is because the wheel will no longer turn easily (trying to turn without power steering). In addition, there will at times be a fluctuation of power either having a an extreme spike or drop in RPMs causing the Jeep to lurch while driving. The cruise control cannot be used with this issue, and I have also experienced malfunctions in the traction control (i.e. hydroplaning in a very small puddle in the road that a normal car could handle, let alone a Jeep). I have been waiting patiently for a year and a half and there are no updates available for Jeep owners, and the issues caused by this lack of parts could cause fatalities on the road or leave individuals with a very expensive, undrivable vehicle followed by the additional cost of purchasing a new vehicle. This is unacceptable for an extremely large and popular vehicle manufacturer to be unable to come to an agreement with parts manufacturers to resume production of a crucial vehicle part.
The airbag light is staying on, the horn is not working, inoperable steering wheel buttons (for switching between dashboard options like mileage, temperature, and information) as well as radio and cruise control buttons. Occasionally, all dashboard lights will come and and flicker, the dome light and all interior lights will flicker as well for a few seconds. I believe the Jeep is affected by the clockspring issue covered by S40 / the federal safety agency 16V‑288. However, because my VIN is not connected with this recall, no manufacturer service center will address it.
My ABS modular sensor is bad causing my cruise control not to engage, When traveling down the interstate while in cruise control it will just off the traction control light will come on and shut my cruise control off unexpectedly and rapidly slowing me down, unexpected. This is a safety issue
All buttons except cruise control on the steering wheel have quit working. The horn won't work either. When it quit working the volume buttons started acting up then it all just quit at once. I'm sure if all that has stopped working then the air bag won't either. I believe it's the clock spring causing all this chaos.
Airbag recall: I've had an airbag light on for over a year now but no active recall was out for my VIN at the time I checked with the dealer about this problem. Recently, the engine light continued to come on with a fault code for the airbag. The vehicle was brought to the larry h miller dodge located at 4220 e 22nd st, tucson, az 85711 to have the problem resolved. After writing up a work order for engine diagnostics I received a phone call stating I would need a clockspring to rectify the airbag problem. At this time I informed them that there was an active safety recall for the vehicle, which they were unaware of despite having printed the information when they checked the vehicle in (nobody actually checked to see if there was a recall, they simply printed the necessary VIN check paperwork). In addition to this I also have lost cruise control function as well as having to press extremely hard on my steering wheel buttons for them to work. Sounds similar to other peoples' reported problems. I feel I shouldn't be charged a diagnostic in the first place as this should have been the first thing that was checked and corrected before anything but I'll have to take that up with them.
The clockspring needs to be replaced in my car. This is a five year old car. This should not be an issue. This seems like a safety issue and a defect as previous models have been recalled for this issue. Horn doesn't work. Cruise control doesn't work. Buttons do not work. It's my understanding this can cause the air bag to not work.
