Just like many other people have wrote about, the ABS SENSOR is defective. The ABS light comes and the traction light does also. Jeep has been aware of the problem for 18 months to 2 years. There is no fix or replacement sensor in sight.

Jeep Wrangler Unlimited ABS, Brake, & Traction Control warning lights all came on at once while driving. Once jeep stopped vehicle went into limp mode limiting power and MPH to less than 30 MPH. Which is a huge safety problem when all the roads to and from out house are 45 MPH. ABS Module is bad per the dealer. Vehicle is VOR in the system, and undriveable. No estimate when a new part will arrive.

The jeep has an ABS module that went bad. I have been waiting months- perhaps over a year, and there is still no estimate on the part coming in. It is an essential part, one with no generic replacement. It is illegal for jeep to just leave all of us hanging.

Anti Lock Brake Control Module (C2200). Cannot get part anywhere, on vehicle appears codes preventing cruise control and other safety issues

Filed Jul 16, 2025 · Driver assistance · TX

The ABS Pump Module on Jeep Wranglers are not working and Stellantis/Wrangler has stopped making replacement parts. If you look on [XXX] you can see that this is a nationwide issue and impacts Wrangler models spanning over several years (so far I've seen from 2014-2019). I've been trying to get the part for over a year to no avail. Also, the part is tied to the vehicle's VIN number, so you cannot use one from another Jeep (for example one from a junk yard). The safety issue is that the automatic braking system does not work properly. My Jeep also fishtails when driving in the rain. There are warning lights on the dash, which come on and off randomly. Mine do not stay on permanently. Initially, I tried to get this part replaced at a Firestone in CA, and then tried again at a mechanic in TX. Both told me the same thing, that the part is unavailable, no longer being made and that it is a national issue. A recall has not been issued either.

Brakes are sticking causing extreme heat and damage to pads, rotors and calipers and I'm afraid there is a fire hazard as well. The brake also occasionally engage during acceleration at around 45 mph and cause a severe wobble that could also be a safety issue as the vehicle becomes hard to control. Dealership claimed the problem was a single brake line that was replaced, but the problem is still occurring and now they claim it is a second brake line but my mechanic assures me it is a faulty ABS module and the online reports indicate this is a real problem with jeep wranglers.

In December of 2024, my jeep felt like a ghost was pressing my brakes. It got worse over time despite any troubleshooting we did and replacing sensors did not work. It went inot limp mode and would not drive out of second gear. Took it to my mechanic to find there is a national issue and back order problem with all ABS modules for Mopar/Jeep. I have read many jeep forums online and this issue started in 2020. As of now since January there is no true ETA on the replacement part. My jeep sits while paying for it and unable to repair. We sought a company to try to rebuild the old one and they can't either since the replacement chips are back ordered as well. Luckily I noticed the issue while driving slow on a dirt road, however, this issue could have pulled the vehicle into oncoming traffic or off the side of the road. Jeep has not issued a recall or any help for the ones that are not inoperable. Someone needs to step up and take responsibility for this issue. There are thousands of people involved from what I have read. Please help!

Jeep Wrangler JK model with ABS issue. I had the "Brake" "ABS" and "Traction Control" light come on my dash. I took my Jeep to the dealership to diagnose the problem and have it resolved. I was told the "ABS Control Module" had a C2200 code that stated internal fault with the ABS Control Module. I had the dealership order one and I paid for it so I can make sure my family is safe driving the Jeep. I was informed by the dealership that the part was on back order and there was no timeline on replenishing off stock. The part was on "Engineering Hold" and would not be available anytime soon. The dealership gave my Jeep back to me and told me since it was the internal electrical part of the ABS control that I would be safe in driving my Jeep without this safety system. I have read multiple forms online stating others are having the same issue across the USA.
