Jeep Wrangler wiring may disable camera and brake light

NHTSA campaign 24V676000 · Reported 2024-09-12 · Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)

medium How serious is it? About this label

Moderate — a missing camera view and brake light do raise crash risk, but the notice does not tell owners to stop driving and says these vehicles have already been repaired.

What's wrong, in plain English

The wiring for the rearview camera and the center brake light — the one mounted high on the back — can short out. When that happens, the camera picture will not show when you back up, and the center brake light will not light up when you slow down, so drivers behind you may not see that you are braking. Dealers replaced the wiring, and the spare tire carrier assembly if needed, free of charge. Chrysler says all affected vehicles were repaired by January 15, 2024.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm whether your Jeep is covered and whether the repair was already completed.
2. If it still shows as open, contact your Jeep dealer or FCA customer service at 1-800-853-1403 and reference recall 77B.
3. Have the wiring replaced — there is no charge.

Summary
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."
Safety 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.
