Massive Jeep, Dodge, Ram, and Chrysler Recall Hits 850,000 Vehicles

Stellantis has announced one of its biggest recalls this year. A radio software issue has been identified on 848,511 vehicles in the U.S., which could lead to the rearview camera image failing to display. The recall affects some of the automaker’s most popular models from the Jeep, Ram, Dodge, and Chrysler brands. As rearview cameras are mandated in the U.S., recalls involving them tend to affect a large number of vehicles, as is the case here.

Over 15 Stellantis model variants are involved in this recall. The list is as follows:

• 2026-27 Chrysler Pacifica, Pacifica Plug-in Hybrid and Voyager minivans
• 2026-27 Dodge Charger vehicles
• 2026 Jeep Cherokee, Compass, Gladiator, Grand Cherokee, Grand Cherokee L, Grand Wagoneer, Grand Wagoneer L and Wrangler vehicles
• 2026 Ram 1500 and 2500 pickups and ProMaster and ProMaster EV vans

As the recall is at an early stage, it has not yet been published on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) website. Stellantis has not stated whether the issue appears intermittently or whether only specific trims are impacted. This may become clearer when the full recall report is published.

Fortunately, the fix is simple and does not appear to require a dealer visit. An over-the-air software update will become available to resolve the issue, so drivers of these vehicles should watch out for a prompt on the media screen when it’s ready to be downloaded. Starting in September, recall notices will be mailed to affected owners.

In the meantime, drivers can contact the automaker’s customer care at 1-800-853-1403 for more information. If the camera image does disappear, drivers should exercise caution when backing up, as reduced visibility could increase the chances of hitting another vehicle or pedestrian.

Stellantis is unaware of any accidents or injuries linked to this recall.

One Of Chrysler’s Biggest 2026 Recalls

Stellantis has issued 27 recalls so far in 2026, with this one ranking as the third-largest of the year. The only two that exceeded this one in scope both affected over a million models.

Of these five recalls, the power steering wiring issue is probably the most serious, as that recall also came with a fire risk warning for Jeep’s Wrangler and Gladiator. The automaker has been sued after a Gladiator caught on fire in Illinois, which is one of 10 alleged fires linked to these vehicles.

While Stellantis may have the second-highest number of U.S. recalls this year, it’s still well short of Ford, which has announced 63 recalls for 2026 so far.
