2014 JEEP WRANGLER Service Brakes Problems

The ABS module was determined to be faulty via a code scan in July 2025 by the dealership. I took the vehicle to another mechanic for confirmation and this was determined to be accurate. A new module has been ordered but is on backorder and may not become available for months as many other owners are dealing with the same problem. I was told that it was still drivable and this is a daily driver vehicle. This now appears to be causing the vehicle to go into "limp" mode, not allowing the vehicle to accelerate at times when pulling into traffic.

ABS Module Failure. No fix or replacement part available. No recall, no Anti- lock brakes ,no traction control , disables cruise control , no solution available per Jeep ?

I own a 2014 Jeep Wrangler, Rubicon. I have not been able to drive my Jeep for 3 years because the ABS light is on and I am unable to get the part to replace it. I have heard from several other Jeep owners that they are experiencing the same ABS failure. The ABS light has been on since 2022 and there are no MOPAR ABS replacement parts. I would like to officially report this failure because I have not been able to resolve this issue. I have taken my Jeep to several mechanics and they cannot repair this issue because their are no parts available.

ABS module failed and the Jeep began violently shaking on the freeway. There is a significant risk of the brakes locking up which put myself and the general public at risk. A dealer confirmed however there are no parts to buy from Stellantis/Mopar. They are on an "indefinite backorder". Even getting them rebuilt is impossible because they are unable to get the parts. ABS, brake, and traction control all came on when the module failed and the death rattle started. This has left me with a dangerous and almost completely useless vehicle for over a year with no resolution in sight. This is a public emergency with so many vehicles that this is happening to and we need a resolution.

ABS MODULE FAILING IN 1000'S OF VECHILES AND JEEP HAS NO SOLUTION TO ANY CUSTOMERS. NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE WORLD WIDE. LEAVING PEOPLE STRANDED IN REMOTE PLACES UNABLE TO USE A EXPENSIVE VECHILE. ABS MODULE FAILS AND THEN YOUR VECHIL IS STUCK IN GEAR WILL NOT CHANGE GEARS IN THE TRANSMISSION, SPEEDO FAILS AND VECHILE SITTING ON BICKS FOR YEARS UNTIL SOME TIME A PART BECOMES AVAILABLE IN A SCRAPYARD.

Anti-Lock Braking System Pump #68259556AD failure leaving the vehicle immobilized, dealership/manufacturer have NOT had replacement for over 3 YEARS now, many Mopar cars are suffering from this safety issue of not having ABS, and not having a solution for this problem

The ABS light on my instrument panel has been going off for Since April 2025. I have attempted to order a replacement ABS Control Module, but Stallantis keeps canceling the order with no reason provided. This appears to be a long ongoing problem, and others have reported waiting years for a replacement. I have also heard reports that Stallantis is no longer making the part. I understand that NHTSA has forced a recall on other Jeep/Ram ABS Control Modules, so I'm not sure why one has not been placed on the Jeep JK series.

ABS sensor has failed at 35,000 miles and has left me without antilock brakes which impairs the braking ability of my vehicle in emergency situations. This needs to be issued as a recall.

The ABS module on my vehicle is faulty. Jeep is no longer manufacturing the part needed for repair. My vehicle is drivable but no longer has ABS. This is affecting a very large number of Jeep wranglers and stallantis / Jeep refuses to make a replacement part available or issue a recall.

While driving in town the red warning lights came on (Traction control, abs lights) Vehicle would not shift when trying to accelerate, speedometer not working along with a few other issues. Mechanic said abs module needs to be replaced. Then he informed me that the part is not available for purchase and not being manufactured anymore. I now have a vehicle that is useless and not safe to drive. This is unacceptable customer service. Very disappointed in Jeep for not addressing this problem or offering an alternative solution. I can not afford to buy another car.

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.

The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while stopped at a red light, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. The contact's vehicle was rear-ended. The contact's wife, who was the other occupant of the vehicle, was taken to the hospital in a private vehicle. The contact's wife sustained a dislocated left hip. In addition, the contact's wife had previously had a left hip replacement and undergone four left hip surgeries. The vehicle was driven to the contact's residence. A police report was filed; however the information was unavailable. The contact stated that three months after the vehicle was purchased, the ABS, traction control, and several unknown warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with a failed ABS module. The contact was informed that the ABS module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was informed that the parts were on back order. The contact stated that the order was placed almost thirteen months ago. The contact stated that the vehicle was almost rear-ended two times recently. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. The contact was advised to contact the NHTSA Hotline and report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000.

ABS module failure causing electrical issues and making car unsafe to drive. Spedometer works intermitently, jeep become unresponsive. Been on jeep forums and realized im not alone in having this issue or the long wait for the replacement module incidicating high depend for replacements

Intermittent indicator lights for ABS, eBrake, and Traction control. Code is indicating an issue with the ABS Control Module. Dealer is saying that parts have been on back-order for years. This appears to be a very common issue with this Jeep style. I'm very surprised there has not been a recall on this yet!!

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.

The ABS system failed at about 50,000 miles while the vehicle was still under extended warranty. The system needs a new ABS module which Jeep says is under engineering review. I have been trying to get the part for almost 2 years with no success. I am left with an unsafe vehicle that I am unable to sell.

I took my Jeep in to be serviced by my mechanic due to the ABS, brake and traction control lights being on. The issue is the ABS module is faulty. I was told I could drive it but use caution in rain and ice. I was also told by my mechanic he had another customer with the same issue and it took the customer several months to find the part. Now, I need to begin the hunt for a dealership that has an ABS module and be charged about $2000 including labor costs. Why is this happening to the ABS modules? Is the ABS module faulty to begin with? My Jeep has about 62,300 miles on it. Why am I having to replace a part that should last the life of the vehicle? Yes, many years ago vehicles did not have ABS. Now, modern vehicles do. When the ABS module fails it can cause too many issues for the vehicle plus it’s not only putting the occupants of the vehicle in danger but also others on the road. So then why are so many Jeep owners having to replace the ABS module when it should be a long-lasting component?

ABS Module failure resulting in abs and traction control systems not functioning properly putting myself and others at risk for injury. There is no replacement part available and Mopar indicates there is no current production for a replacement part. This is a well known problem that the manufacturer has failed to provide a safe solution for.

Abs ,traction control, and brake lights stay on I took it to the dealer they told me it was internal failure on the abs module I can't afford 1200$ to fix it I'm in a jeep club this is a common problem it should be recalled and fixed for free it's a safety hazard. And you lose power you can't even pass another car when all the lights are illuminated.

I have been unable to get an ABS Control Module for my jeep for over a year. This is affecting my vehicle breaking system putting my life in danger as well as others on the road. I have contacted Jeep directly and have only been told it is under review. I have taken it to the dealer and 2 different mechanics only to be told they cannot get that part. I have been told driving is relatively safe, I just won't be able to control a sudden breaking stop! I cannot belive this being allowed to happen. I am not only concerned for my own vehicle but how many others are on the road with the same issue. I am hoping to file a complaint with NTSA to force jeep to resolve this issue.

ABS Module defective and Jeep can not provide one because of being on backorder for more than a year.

Red brake light came on dash. Dealership investigated & found faulty ABS control Module. Dealership said it is a very common issue and poses a significant safety risk as the anti lock brakes are inoperable.

ABS anti lock break system , intermittent warning on the dashboard, brake and traction lights. Pep boys and auto zone both describe there is an internal malfunction with no specific codes , they can not prescribe a fix as the speed wheel sensors are working ok. Jeep forums say it may not be safe to drive as wheels may lock under hazardous driving conditions.

I have numerous warning lights all on at the same time and constantly chiming as I drive. These are the following lights that are all on: check engine, air bag, ABS, brake, and traction control. I have read past communication which addresses problems. I truly believe none of these issues were addressed prior to my purchase in 2020.

Abs control module.... brake light , abs, and traction lights on... they come on, they go off... Control module is defective. Continual problem... I know of at least 6 other jeeps.... JKUs with the same issues.... lets pray it works when I need it!!

The antilock brake module shorted out causing the line to melt and shut down my vehicle

INCIDENT 1.) ON AUGUST 17TH, 2015 AROUND 8:00 PM I WAS DRIVING IN THE LEFT LANE OF THE GSP TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH WHEN MY VEHICLE ERRONEOUSLY ACCELERATED TO 80 MPH WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY PULLING SLIGHTLY TO THE LEFT. AT FIRST, I THOUGHT MY CARPET HAD BEEN STUCK BUT I QUICKLY REALIZED THAT THIS WAS NOT THE CASE. BEING I HAD A MANUAL SHIFT, I IMMEDIATELY WAS ABLE TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL. IN DOING SO, THE ENGINE WAS STILL REVVING HIGH THUS MAKING A LOUD ENGINE SOUND (I DID NOT GET TO SEE THE ACTUAL RPM.) I BEGAN KICKING THE SIDE OF THE GAS PEDAL WHILE TRYING TO PULL SLIGHTLY TO THE RIGHT TO KEEP THE VEHICLE ON THE ROAD. EVENTUALLY THE CAR JUST WENT BACK TO NORMAL. THIS WHOLE PROCESS MAY HAVE BEEN ABOUT TWENTY TO THIRTY SECONDS LONG. INCIDENT 2.) ON AUGUST 18TH, 2015 AROUND 6:20 AM (NOT EVEN 12 HOURS FROM THE FIRST INCIDENT ABOVE) I WAS DRIVING IN THE LEFT LANE OF THE GSP TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 70- 75 MPH WHEN MY VEHICLE ERRONEOUSLY BRAKED HARD AS IF IT WAS A 'BRAKE CHECK' AND THE ABS TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT LIT AT THE SAME TIME. IT WAS LIKE I SLAMMED ON MY BRAKES ONLY THIS HAPPENED WHILE MY FOOT WAS ON THE ACCELERATOR. I QUICKLY LOOKED IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR AND SAW THE CAR BEHIND ME SHOOT INTO THE ADJACENT LANE TO MY RIGHT IN AVOIDANCE OF A COLLISION WITH MY REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENED QUICKLY AND HARSHLY AND THEN IT WAS OVER. I MOVED INTO THE RIGHT LANE AND CONTINUED TO WORK WITH CAUTION. I CALLED MY LOCAL JEEP SERVICE CENTER AND EXPLAINED MY SITUATION. THEY WERE GOING TO SCHEDULE ME FOR THE EARLIEST APPOINTMENT OF AUGUST 31ST 2015 BUT I STRESSED THAT THIS WAS NOT GOOD ENOUGH AS IT WAS A POTENTIAL SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE TO MYSELF AND OTHERS. I WAS DIRECTED TO BRING IT IN TOMORROW 8-19-15 IN THE MORNING.

PURCHASED A NEW 2014 JEEP WRANGLER WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION IN SEPTEMBER 2013. ON JULY 21,2014 I WAS PARKING THE VEHICLE AND PULLED ON THE PARKING BRAKE AND HEARD A POPPING NOISE. THE PARKING BRAKE FAILED AND WILL NOW NOT HOLD THE VEHICLE IN PLACE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO A JEEP DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE PART FIXED ON JULY 23, 2014 AND WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE "PARKING LEVER" WAS BROKEN AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE REPLACEMENT PART IS ON "BACKORDER" AND THE DEALER COULD NOT GIVE ME ANY TIMELINE ON WHEN THE PART WOULD BE REPLACED. CONSIDERING THIS IS A MANUAL VEHICLE, THE PARKING BRAKE IS NEEDED TO SAFELY OPERATE THE VEHICLE. I HAVE CONTACTED JEEP CORPORATE REGARDING MY ISSUE AND HAVE RECEIVED NO RESPONSE. UPON DOING FURTHER RESEARCH, IT APPEARS THIS ISSUE IS COMMON WITH JEEP WRANGLERS AND MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD INCIDENTS WHERE THEIR JEEP HAS ROLLED AWAY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND COULD EVENTUALLY RESULT IN AN INJURY OR FATALITY. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE OPERATING MY JEEP WRANGLER UNTIL JEEP TAKES ACTION TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

I JUST DROVE MY VEHICLE AND THEN PARKED IT AT MY HOME ON A DRIVEWAY THAT HAS A SLIGHT INCLINE. I PARKED VEHICLE IN 1ST GEAR (6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION), AND APPLIED THE PARKING BRAKE. APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES LATER I WAS IN MY YARD AND HEARD A MUFFLED POP NOISE AND THEN A CLICKING SOUND THAT RESEMBLED A ROLLER COASTER RIDE WHEN THE CARS ARE BEING PULLED UP A STEEP HILL. I TURNED AROUND AND SAW MY VEHICLE GOING DOWN THE DRIVEWAY. IT COLLIDED WITH MY WIFE'S VEHICLE THEN HIT A TREE. THE VEHICLE HAS 2800 MILES ON IT. WHEN I GOT IN VEHICLE THE SHIFT WAS IN 1ST GEAR, AND BRAKE APPLIED. I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND LET OFF THE CLUTCH AND THE VEHICLE MOVED FORWARD, INDICATING THAT IT WAS IN FACT IN FIRST GEAR STILL. I DUPLICATED WHERE I PARKED IT AGAIN AND IT MOVED BACKWARDS AGAIN. AFTER MULTIPLE REENACTMENTS THE VEHICLE WOULD MOVE UNTIL 3-5 MIN LATER IT WOULD MAKE A SUDDEN MOVEMENT IN REVERSE FOR ABOUT 6-12 INCHES. *TR

Mileage: 2,800

WENT TO STOP AT LIGHT, HIT THE BRAKE IT WAS HARD AND DID NOT ENGAGE, I STOPPED BECAUSE I HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. BRAKES NEVER ENGAGED, PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE BEFORE EXITING THE VEHICLE TO CHECK ON THE PEOPLE IN THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND THE BRAKES SEEMED TO LET OUT AIR AND RELAX. THE BRAKES FELT NORMAL AT THAT POINT. POST ACCIDENT POLICE ESCORTED BE TO DEALERSHIP TO MAKE SURE THAT BRAKES CONTINUED TO WORK. DEALERSHIP CLAIMED NOTHING WRONG, SPOKE TO NEUTRAL MECHANICS AND THEY ALL STATED THAT IT WAS A PROBLEM THAT WOULD OCCUR AGAIN AND THAT THE BRAKES WOULD SEEM FINE IN THE MEANTIME. EXPLAINED THIS TO JEEP AND THEY SAID BRAKES WERE FINE. *TR
