My 2019 Jeep Wrangler has experienced a failure of the Blind Spot Monitoring system. The vehicle repeatedly displays a “Blind Spot Alert Temporarily Unavailable” warning, causing the blind spot detection system to become unavailable while driving. The vehicle was inspected and diagnosed by an authorized Jeep dealership. Diagnostic trouble codes were present, and I was advised that Stellantis has issued a service bulletin addressing this condition and that the diagnostic codes indicate replacement of the mirror glass/components associated with the blind spot monitoring system. This concerns me because the system is an important safety feature designed to alert the driver to vehicles located in areas that may not be visible in the mirrors. When the system fails, those warnings are unavailable. Despite this being a documented issue addressed by a manufacturer service bulletin, I was informed that there is currently no recall and that the necessary mirror replacement is not covered under my extended warranty. I am filing this complaint because I believe a recurring failure involving a vehicle safety system should be documented and investigated to determine whether other Jeep Wrangler owners are experiencing the same problem and whether further manufacturer action is warranted.

- What is wrong
- Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2018-2024 Jeep Wrangler vehicles. The wiring harness for the rearview camera and the center brake light may short circuit, which can disable the rearview camera image and center brake light. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 111, "Rear Visibility" and 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
- Risk
- A rearview camera image that does not display decreases the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, a center brake light that fails to illuminate can fail to indicate to other drivers that the vehicle is slowing down, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers replaced the harness for the center brake light and rearview camera and/or the spare tire carrier/harness assembly, as necessary, free of charge. All vehicles were repaired by January 15, 2024. Owner notification letters were mailed September 26, 2024. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1‑800‑853‑1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall is 77B.
