2014 Jeep Wrangler Driver assistance Problems

XXX lights on dash for abs, brakes, traction came on upon commuting home from [XXX] to [XXX]. I went to Honda Fredericksburg and diagnosis was C2200 failed and the part was on back order. Returned to SC and followed up with Jeep and local automotive services and part back order but able to drive without replacement and still awaiting product. XXX engine light on in addition to the continual abs, brake, traction lights as well as vehicle going into limp mode. Took it immediately to local automotive services shop and received ABS control Module failure is now sending error to other sensors to put Jeep in limp mode and inoperable. OEM Part still on back order and unable to obtain from Jeep. I contacted Mt. Pleasant Jeep dealership service department as well and unable to get the part. No part available and unknown timeframe which leaves me to garage the Jeep while waiting for a new part to become available.

I own a 2014 Jeep Wrangler Sahara JKU with approximately 67,000 miles. The vehicle has experienced a failure involving the ABS control module and related braking/stability systems. Current symptoms include: * ABS warning light illuminated * Brake warning light illuminated * Traction control warning light illuminated * Intermittent speedometer malfunction * Brake pedal occasionally vibrates and becomes soft during operation * Vehicle hesitates for several seconds when accelerating from a stopped position while dashboard warning lights flash The vehicle has been diagnosed by two separate Jeep repair facilities as having a failed ABS control module. I have been informed that replacement ABS modules for this vehicle have been unavailable for approximately nine months and remain unavailable as of today. This appears to be a widespread issue affecting Jeep Wrangler JK vehicles, with many owners reportedly unable to obtain replacement safety-critical ABS modules through Mopar or dealership networks. Because the ABS and traction/stability systems are malfunctioning, the vehicle cannot pass inspection and is unsafe for my family of four, especially during rain or emergency braking situations. This issue affects federally mandated vehicle safety systems, including anti-lock braking and electronic stability control. Owners should not be left without access to replacement parts for critical safety equipment for extended periods of time.

My ABS module failed, which is a very well know issue with the 2014 to 2018 models. When the ABS module failed I was driving the vehicle and it went into fail safe mode while I was on the freeway service road. The speedometer stopped working and the vehicle would not go over about 20 mph. The vehicle was fine one minute and then I had no control of how fast I was going. I was with traffic that was going 60 mph and it could have been extremely dangerous for me or other drivers. The vehicle has been at the dealership since October 3rd, 2025 and has not been drivable due to this issue. It has not been inspected by anyone other than the dealership. There were warning lights but I was told that it was fine to drive until the part was available. It is currently on a national backorder for the last 18+ months without an estimated arrival date. The failure first appeared in June of 2024 and the part has been on backorder since then.

Incident

Dec 1, 2025

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the ongoing issue with the ABS control module in my vehicle. For the past two years, this component has been faulty, leaving me without ABS functionality, traction control, and proper braking performance. As a result, I have experienced several dangerous situations in which my vehicle was nearly involved in accidents due to these safety deficiencies. Despite my efforts to resolve the matter, I have been unable to obtain the replacement part. I have contacted multiple dealerships, suppliers, and even Mopar directly, yet I have been given no estimated timeframe for delivery. I currently have the part on order, fully paid for, and after two years there is still no indication of when or if it will become available. This situation has created serious safety concerns for both myself and other motorists. Furthermore, I am unable to trade in or properly service my vehicle due to this unresolved issue. I find this unacceptable and believe it demonstrates a significant failure in both product support and customer service. I respectfully request immediate action to resolve this matter, whether through expedited access to the replacement part, an alternative solution, or other appropriate corrective measures. My priority is ensuring my vehicle is safe to operate, and I urge you to address this situation without further delay.

Our ABS Control module has failed. p/n 68145835AE. It's available at any time to inspect. The ABS system does not function. In a rain or snow situation this could cause severe harm to us and others on the road. Our local service center that works on a wide array of Jeep Wrangler products says they have other customers with the same problem on this specific model. It is also reported substantially on online Jeep enthusiast forums. The unit in our Jeep has been looked at by our service center. There are warning lights on the dash indicating the ABS is non-functional. This failed in May 2024. The ABS module also controls speed control and that also is no longer working. It has been this way for over a year. Other Jeep owners with this similar issue have reported the same issue. This appears to be a systemic issue that Jeep is very aware of but has taken no action to correct. The cost if I want to have this repaired is $1,200 plus labor.

Driving sometimes with cruise on and sometimes not or going up a slight inclined the car will lose RPM goes down and then back up. I Was merging on to a highway went to give it gas and RPM goes down and I had 2 semis coming up on me so had to pull over to shoulder. It is very unsafe because you just dont know when it is going to do it. Have had it in to dealership computer and no code. But very very frustrating. They have put computer on and drove around and of course it wouldnt do it. We are at our end of the rope we don't know what to do. Service dept just said if it doesn't throw a code cant do anything. I guess when we get hit they wiil do something.

THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE FRONT SWAY BAR CAME OUT OF THE ELECTRONIC SWAY BAR DISCONNECT HOUSING WHICH DISCONNECTED THE SWAY BAR UNKNOWINGLY AND UNINTENTIONALLY, CAUSING AN EXTREMELY UNSTABLE DRIVING CONDITION. THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF THE OCCURRENCE AS FAR AS WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH. THE ONLY WAY IT WAS DISCOVERED WAS BECAUSE I ASSUMED THE SPRINGS OR SHOCKS WERE WORN OUT TO CAUSE THE CONDITION. WHILE REPLACING THE FRONT SHOCKS, I NOTICED THE SWAY BAR WAS PULLED OUT OF THE HOUSING. WE HAD NUMEROUS CLOSE CALLS ON THE FREEWAY WITH NEAR ROLL OVERS DUE TO THIS CONDITION. THE MANUAL STATES YOU SHOULD NEVER EXCEED SPEEDS OF 18 MPH WHEN SWAY BAR IS DISCONNECTED. HOWEVER, WE HAD BEEN ON NUMEROUS TRIPS TRAVELLING ON THE FREEWAY AT SPEEDS OF 80 MPH. I CONTACTED JEEP REPEATEDLY AND WAS JUST TOLD IT WAS A "NON-SERVICABLE" PART, AND TO REPLACE IT, AT AN APPROXIMATE COST OF OVER $2000.00

RANDOMLY THE INSTRUMENT PANEL GAUGES WOULD GO CRAZY, THE "IDIOT" LIGHTS WOULD COME ON, AND IF THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ON, THAT WILL DISENGAGE. I'VE HAD OTHER INCIDENTS WHERE THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT HAVE ANY POWER WHEN THE KEY WAS ENGAGED, UNTIL 4 DIFFERENT TIMES OF TRYING IT. ALSO WHEN STARTING THE ENGINE, THE STARTER WOULD CONTINUE TO CRANK EVEN WITH THE KEY DISENGAGED.

ON 6/23/16, I WAS DRIVING MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SAHARA ON A HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH. I ACCELERATED TO MERGE INTO THE LEFT LANE AND THEN, AFTER LETTING UP ON THE GAS PEDAL, THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE AT THE SAME RATE OF SPEED. I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE VEHICLE SLOWED AS EXPECTED BUT I HEARD A DISTINCT "POPPING" NOISE, SEEMINGLY AS IF THE GAS PEDAL HAD POPPED BACK INTO PLACE. JUST A FEW MILES LATER, WHILE DRIVING IN THE LEFT LANE, I ACCELERATED A BIT TO KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC. THE ACCELERATOR "STUCK" A SECOND TIME, AND SO I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AGAIN AND THE VEHICLE RESPONDED AGAIN BY SLOWING BUT THIS TIME, WHEN I WENT TO ACCELERATE AGAIN TO KEEP PACE WITH TRAFFIC, THE GAS PEDAL WAS COMPLETELY NON-RESPONSIVE (I.E., THE PEDAL HAD SEEMED TO FALL TO THE FLOOR AND PRESSING IT DID NOT RESULT IN ANY FURTHER ACCELERATION). I PULLED ONTO THE LEFT SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY AND CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP VERBALLY TOLD ME COMPUTER FAULT CODE READ AS "ACCELERATOR PEDAL IN CORRELATION" AND SAID THE GAS PEDAL MODULE WAS READING INCORRECTLY. SERVICE ADVISOR ADMITTED TO HAVING SEEN THIS PROBLEM BEFORE. WHEN PICKING UP VEHICLE, SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME THAT PROBLEM WAS DUE TO EXCESSIVE DIRT ON/BEHIND THE GAS PEDAL. THERE IS NO WAY IT WAS CAUSED BY THIS, AS JEEP HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN OFF-ROAD, NO ONE DRIVES IT WITH MUDDY SHOES, ETC. ACCELERATOR PEDAL ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACED AND PCM WAS UPDATED TO THE MOST CURRENT SOFTWARE LEVEL. PREVIOUSLY ON THIS VEHICLE, THE SENTRY KEY WAS REPLACED AS WAS THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, AS WAS THE FRONT STABILIZER/SWAY BAR. NOT SURE IF THE STUCK ACCELERATOR IS DUE TO A COMPUTER/SOFTWARE GLITCH OR A MECHANICAL FAILURE. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH REVEALED THAT ISSUES WITH "STUCK" ACCELERATORS ON THIS MAKE/MODEL/YEAR VEHICLE ARE NOT UNCOMMON. INVOICE ATTACHED. PLEASE INVESTIGATE.

I WAS DRIVING ON I-65 ON A SLIGHTLY RAINY DAY. I STOPPED TO FILL WITH GAS AND WHEN I ENTERED THE INTERSTATE I NOTICED THE VEHICLE SEEMED TO FISHTAIL BUT I THOUGHT MAYBE I HIT A SLICK SPOT. IN A SHORT TIME I GOT BEHIND A SLOW TRUCK AND WHEN THE TRAFFIC CLEARED I STARTED TO GO AROUND THE TRUCK ACCELERATING NORMALLY AND THE VEHICLE FISH TAILED SO DRASTICALLY THE TRUCK DRIVER ACTUALLY MOVED PARTIALLY ONTO THE SHOULDER. I SLOWED AND PULLED OFF THE ROAD THINKING I MAY HAVE A TIRE GOING FLAT. UPON CHECKING THE TIRES I FOUND NO PROBLEM. I STARTED BACK ON MY TRIP BUT COULD TELL MY JEEP WAS NOT FEELING AS IT SHOULD WHEN ACCELERATING. WHEN NO VEHICLES WERE IN SIGHT I INTENTIONALLY ACCELERATED AND THE VEHICLE ONCE AGAIN FISH TAILED. SOON I CAME UPON SLOW TRAFFIC AND WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES THE LEFT REAR WHEEL LOCKED UP AND SLIDE. WHEN I FINALLY GOT TO AN EXIT I STOPPED AND AND STILL COULD FIND NO PROBLEM BUT DID NOT SHUT OFF THE ENGINE (MISTAKE). I CONTINUED ON TO MY DESTINATION VERY CAUTIOUSLY. IT WAS LATE AND AFTER THE VEHICLE SAT OVERNIGHT IT SEEMED TO BE FINE AND HAS NOT HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM SINCE. THE PROBLEM COULD HAVE EASILY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I HAD THE VEHICLE CHECKED BY A DEALER WHEN I RETURNED HOME AND NO PROBLEM WAS FOUND AND I REALLY FELT THEY DID NOT BELIEVE WHAT I WAS SAYING. THEY KEPT IT OVERNIGHT AND CHEKED IT ON A RAINY DAY.
