Selected complaints filed with NHTSA by 2015 Jeep Wrangler owners, lightly cleaned up (personal details are redacted by NHTSA).
The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the ABS, brake, and traction control warning lights illuminated. Additionally, the cruise control function was inoperable. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the dealer, who determined that the ABS module needed to be replaced; however, the part was on backorder. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 89,000.
The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) module on my 2015 Jeep Wrangler failed at approximately 100,000 miles, causing a complete loss of ABS functionality. The component remains installed in the vehicle and is available for inspection upon request. This failure significantly impacted my safety and the safety of others, as it compromised braking performance, making the vehicle more difficult to control during sudden stops or slippery road conditions. Without ABS, there was an increased risk of skidding, longer stopping distances, and potential collisions, particularly in emergency braking situations or adverse weather conditions. Additionally, my cruise control is no longer operable due to this issue, further impacting the vehicle's drivability. …
The ABS system has failed in this vehicle. The cruise control has also failed. According to research, these are related. Diagnostics show a 2200 code "anti-lock brake module internal". The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. Internet research reveals that this is a very common failure with this vehicle. The parts are unavailable from Jeep/Chrysler and other suppliers. Module rebuilding services such as Module Master cannot even refurbish these modules since the chips are no longer available. This leaves many Jeep/Chrysler vehicles either inoperable or on the road without ABS. Without ABS, the safety of our family is at risk every time we drive since this important safety feature has failed and is irreparable. Anyone driving in the vicinity of any of these vehicles is also potentially at risk due to this system failure. …
To Whom It May Concern, I am submitting this letter as a formal complaint regarding the unresolved unavailability of a safety-critical ABS module for my vehicle and the improper closure of my case by Stellantis without escalation. Vehicle Information: 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara ABS Control Module Dealer Documentation: On January 15, 2026, I received written confirmation from Texan Dodge in Humble, Texas, stating that: ABS Module #68259556AD is currently on backorder That dealership alone has 15 pending orders There are 300+ customers nationwide currently in the supply queue No ETA or ship date has been provided by the supplier This documentation demonstrates that the issue is systemic, not isolated, and not resolvable simply by prepaying a dealership order. …
ABS Control Module / Traction/ BRAKE - all warning indicators are lit on dash - again. Cruise Control not functioning as part of this. System is available for inspection. Replaced 3 tire speed sensors and ABS Module at dealer in July 2023 because of dashboard lights. In January 2025 all 3 dashboard lights are again lit, diagnosed by dealership ABS Module failed and needs to be replaced. In January - Parts are unavailable and cannot be back ordered, Jeep will not accept order. July 2025 I find that part can be ordered but Jeep fighting warranty replacement because order was just over the 2 year mark, yet the diagnosed failure was 8 months prior and unavailable for ordering. Multiple people are driving Jeep Wranglers without ABS Control Modules functioning properly because Jeep didn't have part. Jeep has recalled 2 other models due to ABS issues. …
In October 2025, the Anti-lock Breaking System (ABS) Brake, traction control, downhill control indicators all illuminated. This also impacts cruise control and acceleration from a stopped position. My repair technician placed an order for the necessary ABS control module with MOPAR. The expected delivery date was August 2026. In August 2026, MOPAR informed them the part was on a nationwide back order with no ETR for resolution. I placed an order for the ABS Module in August 2026, with a suggested date of delivery in two weeks. MOPAR has advised us today 18 August 26, there is no ETR for this critical component to be available. Anti-lock brakes are federally mandated in all vehicles 2012 and beyond. Not having this module disables multiple required safety components in the vehicle not just ABS and puts the consumer, other drivers at risk.
ABS, Traction Control, and Brake lights have been on for more than a year. I have taken it to Jeep Dealership here in Jacksonville, FL and they have continually tried to order the part from Jeep, but are told that the part is. not available at this time. 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." Which is not really an answer. My ABS does not work, and my car cannot be put into cruise control mode without this part being replaced. I feel that my car is not safe without ABS and traction control functioning properly. Part in question is: 68259556AD Module
I was driving and all the dash board lights came on and it started warning beepings then it would not go over 35mph The ABS module was affected because it has a defective eyelet in the TIPM Module wiring connector that allows water to seep in I had a level 2 system testing done to find the defect. Jeep is aware of the problem because when I tried to order a new ABS module I was told it was not available because they are re-engineering it.

This item has been worked 9 previous times by Chrysler / Jeep and is being delivered for additional work on [redacted]. This issue causes loss of ABS, traction control regardless of road or driving conditions for up to 8 continuous hours.
ABS module quit working, ABS, BRAKE, TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS came on. I then had no speedometer and transmission would not shift. Attempting to order a replacement part and have been told by every part dealer including MOPAR themselves that the ABS module is unavailable with no estimated date for replenishment and has been for over a year.
