What's wrong, in plain English
Chrysler is recalling certain Jeep Renegade vehicles because the wrong reverse light assembly was installed on the rear bumper. These incorrect lights may not work as intended, which can reduce how well other drivers and pedestrians see that the vehicle is backing up. This means people nearby may not get a clear signal that the vehicle is in reverse, making it harder for them to notice it is backing up.
What you should do
Contact a Jeep dealer, or FCA customer service at 1-800-853-1403, to schedule an inspection.
The repair is free of charge.
