16 recalls covering model years 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — a recall may apply only to some vehicles of a given year.
The wiring that feeds the electric power steering pump can overheat. That overheating can start a fire in the vehicle, and it can happen even when the Jeep is parked with the ignition switched off — so shutting it down does not make it safe. A dealer will inspect the wiring and the power steering pump and replace either part if needed, at no cost. Owner notification letters are expected to go out July 9, 2026.
⚠ NHTSA advises: park outside and away from structures (fire risk).
The instrument cluster, the panel behind the steering wheel with your speedometer, gauges and warning lights, can short out inside and stop working. If it goes dark while you are driving, you will not see how fast you are going or any warning lights telling you something is wrong, which can lead to a crash. Because the problem is in the hardware, dealers replace the whole cluster, free of charge. Owner letters went out between October 2024 and January 2025, so the repair is available now.

Certain 2021 Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator vehicles have a software problem in the computer that controls the engine and transmission. The software can cause the engine to stall, which means you suddenly lose power to the wheels while driving. These vehicles were already fixed once under an earlier recall, but that fix was not enough — they need the new repair too. A dealer will load updated software into the powertrain control module at no cost.

A part in the steering column may not have been welded correctly at the factory. That part carries the electrical signal to the driver's airbag in the steering wheel. If the weld is bad, the airbag may not inflate during a crash, so the driver would not get the protection it is supposed to give. A dealer will check the part and replace it if needed at no cost to you.

On these manual-transmission Wranglers and Gladiators, shifting into reverse may not bring up the backup camera picture and may not turn on the reverse lights. That means you can be backing up with no camera view on the screen and no lights to warn people behind you that you are moving. The vehicles do not meet the federal rules for rear visibility and lighting. Dealers will replace the gear position sensor free of charge. Letters were mailed November 16, 2023.
These vehicles have a 3.0-liter diesel engine with a high-pressure fuel pump that can break. If the pump fails, the engine can stall, meaning it can quit while you are driving and leave you without power in traffic. Dealers will replace the fuel pump, along with other fuel system parts if they are needed, free of charge. Chrysler mailed owner notification letters on October 17, 2023.
These Jeep Wranglers and Gladiators have a manual transmission, and the clutch — the part that connects the engine to the gears when you press the left pedal — can get too hot and crack apart. Overheated clutch parts can start a fire. Broken pieces can also damage nearby parts, drop debris onto the road, or leave the vehicle unable to move under its own power. The dealer replaces the whole clutch assembly and updates the software, free.

These trucks and SUVs have a 3.0-liter diesel engine with a high-pressure fuel pump that pushes fuel to the engine. That pump can fail. When it does, the engine stalls, which can leave you without power while you're driving — in traffic or at highway speed. Dealers will replace the pump free of charge and will also check the rest of the fuel system, replacing any other parts that need it. Owner letters were mailed in October 2023.

The front seat belts in these vehicles have a small part inside the belt reel that yanks the belt tight the instant a crash begins. On some vehicles that part was welded incorrectly at the factory, so the tightener may not work. The belt would still latch and hold you, but it would not pull snug the way it is designed to, so you could move farther forward in a crash. Dealers will replace the front belt reels.
Reported 2022-08-25 · Campaign 22V639000 · Model years: 2022
When you shift into park, a small part inside the transmission locks the driveline so the truck cannot move. On these Gladiators, that parking mechanism may not catch the way it should. If it does not, the truck can roll away after you think you have parked it, which can hurt someone nearby or hit another vehicle. The repair is a new transmission. All of these trucks in the U.S. are unsold and will be repaired before they can be sold.
Reported 2022-08-25 · Campaign 22V638000 · Model years: 2021
The radio software in these trucks and SUVs can glitch so the backup camera picture never appears on the screen when you shift into reverse. You may see a blank screen instead of the view behind you. That does not meet the federal rule requiring rear visibility. A dealer fixes it by loading updated radio software — no parts needed. Chrysler mailed owner letters in October 2022, and the update costs nothing.
Reported 2021-01-28 · Campaign 21V028000 · Model years: 2020, 2021
Certain Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator models with a manual transmission can overheat the clutch. The pressure plate, the part that squeezes the clutch together when you let the pedal out, may get hot enough to crack and break apart. Broken pieces can damage nearby parts, drop debris onto the road, or leave the vehicle unable to move under its own power. The overheated clutch parts can also start a fire. Dealers add software that limits engine power when the clutch gets too hot.
Reported 2020-09-24 · Campaign 20V580000 · Model years: 2020
The front seat belts in these trucks and SUVs have a part called a retractor, which locks the belt in a crash and then controls how far you move forward. On the recalled vehicles, the retractor may lock but then fail to slow your forward movement properly. That means the belt would not hold you back as well as it should, and the people in the front seats could be hurt more seriously in a crash. Dealers will replace the front seat belt retractors.
Reported 2020-09-10 · Campaign 20V191000 · Model years: 2020
The software in your 8.4-inch or 12-inch radio screen has a bug. After you back up and shift out of reverse, the picture from the backup camera can stay on the screen instead of switching back to the normal display. That means you can be driving forward while a rear-facing picture is still showing, which can pull your eyes and attention off the road ahead. The fix is a software update for the radio screen.
Reported 2020-03-03 · Campaign 20V124000 · Model years: 2020
These Wrangler and Gladiator models with a manual transmission can overheat the clutch pressure plate, the part that clamps the clutch together when you shift gears. If it gets hot enough it can crack and break apart. That heat can start a fire. Broken pieces can also damage nearby parts, drop debris onto the road behind you, or leave the vehicle unable to move under its own power. A dealer reroutes a wire harness, inspects the clutch, and replaces parts as needed.
Reported 2019-08-29 · Campaign 19V636000 · Model years: 2020
The rear driveshaft on some 2020 Gladiators was built without grease in one of its joints. Dry, the joint can overheat and seize, and the shaft can crack and break. That means a sudden loss of drive power, and if the shaft drops off the truck entirely it becomes a hazard for cars behind you. Dealers will replace the rear driveshaft free of charge.
