What owners say about the service brakes

Verbatim from NHTSA complaints, newest first
“Both ORC module and ABS modules have failed on a 10 year old vehicle. Separate issues that greatly impact the cars safety and Stellantis refuses to anything about it to fix issues that can hurt americans. Both modules unresponsive through testing and causing critical safety systems to be inoperable.”

“I have been waiting for a part that has been on back order for over 1 year! I live in Hawaii and i understand these things take time but over 1 year of waiting is ridiculous! I’m currently being told by my dealership that I’m waiting for an abs module that’s been on back order for a long time already. I need to know if there are alternatives options for parts? A loaner? What are my options at this point?!”

“The ABS module has gone bad and there is no replacement available. I am concerned that my car is now lacking these essential safety features and it seems like there are no plans to ever make this part again. I am not sure what I can do if this part does not exist anymore.”

“I purchased my 2015 Jeep Wrangler as a new vehicle in Missouri in 2015. The vehicle has been appropriately maintained with no major repairs and has approximately 17,251 miles. On the afternoon on [XXX], I cranked my vehicle and several warning lights came on. The check engine, ABS, traction control, and parking brake lights all illuminated. I took the vehicle to Advance Auto for an initial code scan and had error codes U1120 (lost wheel distance), U1110 (lost vehicle speed), and U0121 (lost communication system with ABS module). I dropped the vehicle off the next morning for further diagnostics at a local Meineke location. The scans at Meineke confirmed the same error codes with an electrical system assessment determining a complete ABS module failure. In addition to the ABS module failing, the speedometer and odometer were also not working. Unfortunately, I discovered that Stellantis is no longer manufacturing the part and a significant backlog of when and if the part may ever become available again. This has resulted in an increased cost to repair since new parts are hard to find and very expensive, third-party parts are also hard to find, and companies that…”

“Abs module has been bad now for over 1 years, I was 541 on waiting list with only 2 available nationwide, now still being told not available and "it's okay to drive without it" by the dealership, so no anti lock brakes, no cruise control, no traction control, this module is now over 1400 dollars to install but not available, hmmm part was 200 bucks before all the 2015 jeep wranglers start to experience the same issue and MOPAR wont make the part , it should be a recall before a driver or other road users get KILLED, this is being reported all over the USA, seems like all 2015 modules are the problem, (should have recalled the plastic abs oil cooler that is placed inside of engine block PLASTIC doesn't withstand heat, but I repaired that to a tune of 1800 bucks) then ABS module out jeep dealer put me on the list for part but not able to say if ever the module will be available, I checked Amazon they have them but was instructed not to use the product on my jeep that it would hurt other components on vehicle, PLEASE MAKE MOPAR make and install these faulty abs module, don't let them force the public to drive without safety features mandated in 2012 on all…”

“My ABS Module has failed with under 12,000 miles on a 2015 Jeep Wrangler JK. This is a known issue with the replacement module either unavailable or, what used to cost a few hundred dollars, now costing a few thousand dollars. Why is a car manufacturer permitted to produce a defective part critical to stopping a vehicle and then be rewarded handsomely for a repair to the issue it created? Many Jeep owners I have encountered are choosing not to repair their vehicles and are on the road in vehicles without antilock brakes. Surely this is a significant safety issue that should be remedied at the manufacturer’s expense.”
