2019 JEEP WRANGLER Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2019 Jeep Wrangler has 8 recalls, the most serious including a clutch pressure plate that can overheat and fracture on manual transmission models, raising the risk of fire, and a front track bar bracket weld that can fail and cause a sudden loss of steering control. A software defect in the cruise control system can prevent the driver from deactivating cruise control, causing the vehicle to hold speed or accelerate against the driver's input. On the safety equipment side, front seatbelt retractors may not function properly in a crash, reducing restraint protection. Two electrical recalls affect the instrument panel cluster, which can fail due to an internal short and leave the driver without a working speedometer or warning lights. The rearview camera system has two separate concerns: a wiring harness shared with the center brake light can short out and disable both the camera image and the brake light, and on certain vehicles the rearview camera image can linger on screen after shifting out of reverse, distracting the driver.
