In August of 2024, the ABS light came on in my 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (manual transmission). I took it to my mechanic who reported that the error code indicated that the ABS module was bad and needed replacing. We authorized the repair and waited for him to call with a timeline for it to be ready. He was unable to locate any parts from any of his normal suppliers and called the Jeep dealerships only to be told that the part was on an "engineering hold" and unavailable for purchase. He asked the dealership service department about a timeline for the part and was told end of September 2024. That date then became November 2024, January 2025, and most recently March 20, 2025 with no part ordered yet. Jeep has failed to provide a replacement part or repair option for this critical component that is failing in multiple year and models of Jeep Wranglers and the risk to injury is significant if it fails while the car is being driven. I either have to choose to not drive the car I have paid for and maintained or I have to play Russian roulette every time I get behind the wheel and wonder if this is the ride where the module will fail.

**Incident Description:** While driving my Jeep Wrangler, the ABS warning light illuminated on the dashboard. Upon further inspection and research, it was determined that the ABS control module had failed, affecting the vehicle's braking system. This failure poses a significant safety risk, as it compromises the anti-lock braking function and overall stability during emergency stops or adverse road conditions. I have discovered that this issue is not isolated to my vehicle; it has been reported as a recurring problem among Jeep Wrangler owners on various forums and online communities. Many owners have shared similar experiences with the ABS control module failing and the warning light appearing. To date, the problem has not been resolved. The vehicle has been inspected by an independent service center, which confirmed the failure of the ABS control module. No prior symptoms or warning lamps were observed until the ABS warning light appeared. This appears to be a systemic issue affecting numerous Jeep Wranglers, warranting further investigation and potentially a recall to ensure driver safety.

ABS Module. The safety lights are on for the ABS Module. We verified the fuses were all good, and replaced them with new ones, just in case. I took the car to a mechanic who used a handheld computer to reset the warning. The warning lights came back on as soon as I started the engine. My mechanic attempted to order the module, but we are getting that it is on back order. We had been told it would be at the dealership in Oct 16th, but is still not available today Oct 31st. I understand that if for any reason I have to slam on the breaks, there is a chance that my brakes will fail. I entered our VIN but received the message that our Jeep is not listed as on recall. Other 2015 Jeeps are on the list, but ours has failed?? Doesn't seem right. I'm was not looking for free to begin with, but do need to correct this issue. Neither option is to available.

I called Jeep directly and have been told "Part STOCK is under QUARANTINE pending quality / engineering review and inspection. Working to obtain timing on resolve to predict allocation and shipment to DLR to fulfill No firm ETA to provide at this time. Pending response from SPLR / PKG Working to improve."

My antilock brake system failed and made it where I cannot set my cruise control and the part that is required to fix has been on nation wide backorder since september 30 of 2023 this is unacceptable for a safety part to be that hard to replace and if that many are on backorder it should be recalled . The ck engine light would go on and off for a few monthes
The traction control light and ABS dash lights will come on and the vehicle will jerk and bog down while driving. It is very dangerous and needs to be fixed. I looked on jeep forum to see if I could see what's going on with it and there were a bunch of jeeps that have the same problem.

Vehicles electronic swaybar assembly shorted out in light rain causing cascading faults in abs braking system and power train system. Have video of issue occurring and paperwork from dealer documenting all of the error codes created by the short in the swaybar.
Take the vehicle to service department repair brakes which had calipers locked up and picked up the vehicle but the brakes went to near the floor took back the vehicle and it is romaine there now to figure out the problem total of 1 week so far also when driving home with it vehicle had to pump the brakes to get stopped
While slowing to a stop from very low speed, on a paved city street, the brakes failed. Pedal was all the way to the floor, and seemed as if the jeep accelerated slightly, and the ABS was possibly activating and releasing? Causing minor damage traffic collision with stopped car in front of me. I am a retired traffic accident investigator, and was not distracted, I could not recreate the same malfunction after the collision.
While pulling out of my driveway I gently pressed the acceleration pedal and the vehicle started to glad the traction control light on the dash and the brakes were applied via the ABS system. The car lost all forward momentum . I thought maybe the car had just broke traction even though I was on a flat surface that was paved and dry. However, when pulling out of the end of my street the same event happened and put me in a compromising position because the vehicle stopped in oncoming traffic that I was attempting to pull across and there was a car coming. Thankfully I was able to get out of the lane of traffic before I was t-boned in the driver side door.
I was driving on a paved road and needed to step on the brakes to avoid striking a vehicle in front of me. My ABS breaks failed to work and I had to swerve to avoid striking the vehicle in front of me. Immediately after this incident my ABS light and slip light illuminated on my dash board and remained on. I have the next available appointment on the 19th of february at fields jeep in glenview and I am unable to drive this unsafe vehicle until it is repaired. With that being said I need to take off of work without pay until it is repaired.
Last friday afternoon (12/13/19) I had a significant brake malfunction where I believe the ABS system falsely thought a wheel was locked up and released the brakes or made them much less effective during a normal stop (my interpretation of what happened ' especially after some online research). I was travelling at approx. 45 MPH and the light ahead turned yellow and I pressed the brakes to stop. The brakes were ineffective, and I realized I was not going to be able to stop in time before entering the intersection. I decided to run the light and pull over on the shoulder immediately. I then proceeded to drive again in a slow fashion and apply the brakes. I had the same ineffective response. I tried a third time with the same results. I believe the ABS was being engaged falsely. I was alone in the vehicle and no cars were in front of me. I am certain that if I was on a crowded major highway and I was had to stop I would have crashed ' unnecessarily because there was no need for the ABS to engage. The above incident occurred approx. 3 hours away from my house in the vicinity of davenport. I brought the jeep to posner jeep who checked the vehicle and re-initialized the ABS and said they didn't find any problem. I bought the jeep in 2015 from arrigo dodge in tamarac and have had several issues with the ABS system and sensors. I strongly feel that the issue can happen again and can cause accidents and possibly deaths if not dealt with appropriately.
Car feels like it over heats driving long periods of time & brakes traction is off when I have to make sudden stops
