2015 JEEP WRANGLER — Complaint #2174584

Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about SERVICE BRAKES filed February 7, 2026

NHTSA complaint #2174584 (ODI reference 11716454) concerns a 2015 JEEP WRANGLER and was filed on February 7, 2026. The owner reports the failure occurred on December 19, 2025. The report was geocoded to California based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as service brakes, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same JEEP WRANGLER cohort independently describe similar service brakes failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2015 JEEP WRANGLER shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.

Complaint Description

I am one of thousands of Jeep Wrangler owners whose ABS modules have failed, not due to normal wear and tear, but because it is a defective part. The result for my car is that the ABS system indiscriminately applies braking to a wheel that is not necessary. This results in steering problems, overheated brake pads, and vibrations in all four wheels. The ABS module needs to be replaced, but there are none in the U.S. to buy. The part has been on back order for years! Stellantis, the parent company of Jeep, has not done anything to resolve the supply chain issues with this part. I am aware of some Jeep owners who have left their Jeeps at a Jeep dealership for over a year, waiting for a replacement part! In some states, such as Hawaii, where my Jeep is located, an annual safety inspection must be passed to drive the car on Hawaii's roads. With ABS and traction control warning lights, my Jeep won't pass. At this point, I cannot drive my Jeep legally or safely. The NSHTA has been made aware
