The recall covers 456,287 vehicles and 2,871 tow-trailer modules due to a design defect that risks trailer brake light failure, with free replacements at dealers.
Monday, February 2, 2026, Chrysler recalled 456,287 vehicles and 2,871 tow-trailer modules, the NHTSA posted.
Regulators said the issue involves tow-trailer modules installed in the recalled vehicles, which were improperly designed and prompted the recall.
Among recalled products are the 2026 Jeep Cherokee, 2024–2026 Jeep Wagoneer S, 2025–2026 Ram 1500, 2025–2026 Ram 2500, Ram 3500, Ram 4500, Ram 5500, and Mopar tow-trailer modules.
Modules can cause brake lights and trailer brakes to fail, increasing crash risk, and owners of affected vehicles can take recalled modules to Fiat Chrysler dealers for a free replacement.
The recall timeline calls for dealer replacements and owner outreach, with owner notification letters scheduled for March 24, 2026.
