- Problem
- Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2022 Jeep Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer vehicles. The radio software may prevent the rearview image from displaying. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."
- Risk
- A rearview camera that does not display an image reduces the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers will reprogram the radio software, free of charge. All affected vehicles are still within dealership inventory and therefore no owner notification letters will be sent. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall is YA1.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
What this recall means for you
The radio software in certain vehicles may prevent the rearview camera image from appearing on the display. Without the image, the driver's view behind the vehicle is reduced, which increases the risk of a crash. The affected vehicles do not meet the federal rear visibility standard (FMVSS 111).
According to the recall notice, all affected vehicles are still in dealership inventory, so no owner notification letters will be sent. If you are shopping for one of these vehicles, ask the dealer whether it has had the free radio software reprogramming completed.
Dealers will reprogram the radio software at no charge. Owners who have questions can contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403 and reference recall number YA1. You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls.
