What this recall means for you

Certain 2024-2025 Dodge Charger EV and Jeep Wagoneer S vehicles have a software error that may cause the instrument panel display to fail. When that happens, critical safety information such as the selected gear and warning lights may not be shown to the driver, which increases the risk of a crash. The affected vehicles also fail to meet several federal motor vehicle safety standards covering lamps, stability control, brakes, tire pressure monitoring, and occupant crash protection.

The fix is a software update to the instrument panel, performed by dealers at no cost to you. Owner notification letters were mailed May 14, 2026. If you have questions, you can contact FCA customer service at 1-800-853-1403 and refer to recall number 39D.
