2014 Jeep Wrangler ABS module failure, part number 68145835AE Dash light for ABS and Brake warning light are constant on the dash. This is the 2nd 2014 Jeep Wrangler I have owned that has this problem. It has been diagnosed by the Jeep dealer and another mechanic. The part is on National back order. I ordered the first one in 2024 and it has not been available. I have done a bunch of research and believe a CHIP in the module fails but is no longer available. My Jeep is available for inspection.
ABS pump is faulty, part is unavailable to purchase for years not safe when roads are icy or wet
ABS Module component has failed which controls anti-lock brakes, cruise control and traction control. Jeep has no stock of ABS Modules, and no production dates for potential fix. Therefore these Jeeps have reverted a decade or two in safety losing their ABS, traction control and going into limp mode, which prevents you from driving (I have not experienced limp mode but neither do I wish for this to happen.)
The vehicle has been virtually trouble-free for many years. Recently, it began to have some issues. The vehicle is covered under a lifetime warranty from Chrysler and has been serviced by the local Jeep dealer. We brought the vehicle in to service in November, 2025. One of the issues that had just occurred was that the brake warning lights came on. The dealer said they were not able to replace the AntiLock Brake module because they were backordered. They said the vehicle would be safe to drive. We waited a month and still no part. I reached out to the manufacturer, and they said the part was not in stock and I would be notified when they would be able to send it to the dealer. It is no about 5 months later and still no part. The part(s) show as available from the Manufacturer online, however they continue to say there are none available for our vehicle. The Dealer service department said this is not unique to us, that it is a constant problem for them to get this part from the manufacturer. We need the vehicle for transportation and are worried that the defective part may lead to brake failure and an accident.
ABS Module Failure. No fix or replacement part available. No recall, no Anti- lock brakes ,no traction control , disables cruise control , no solution available per Jeep ?
The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the seat belt, parking brake, and ABS warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the dealer, who determined that the ABS module had failed and needed to be replaced; however, the part was on backorder. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 84,000.
The ABS module was determined to be faulty via a code scan in July 2025 by the dealership. I took the vehicle to another mechanic for confirmation and this was determined to be accurate. A new module has been ordered but is on backorder and may not become available for months as many other owners are dealing with the same problem. I was told that it was still drivable and this is a daily driver vehicle. This now appears to be causing the vehicle to go into "limp" mode, not allowing the vehicle to accelerate at times when pulling into traffic.
The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an abnormal clunking sound coming from the front of the vehicle while coming to a stop. The contact stated that while attempting to continue driving, the vehicle struggled to respond, because the wheels had seized. The contact stated that the ABS warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed failures with the ABS sensors and ABS control module. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, a case was opened, and the contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was unknown.
Intermittent indicator lights for ABS, eBrake, and Traction control. Code is indicating an issue with the ABS Control Module. Dealer is saying that parts have been on back-order for years. This appears to be a very common issue with this Jeep style. I'm very surprised there has not been a recall on this yet!!
The ABS Control module has been out on my vehicle since May 2025. Which is when the part was ordered by my dealership through MOPAR as the part is only sold through MOPAR directly. This part cannot be replaced through third party and requires a MOPAR agent to scan to the vehicle. This has been a systemic issue where it has been referred to as a “galactic back order” In the cars manual from Jeep when there are issues with the ABS control module it lists this as a critical safety issues and to take it directly to a dealership for service. When this issue is present it disables Electronic stability control (ESC), Anti locking braking system (ABS), Descent assist control, and cruise control. This increases safety issues especially when driving on slick winter or wet roadways. I wonder how many other people had an issue like this and contributed to an accident? When an inquiry is submitted to find out more about this issue from the order it’s going to be sent out on x date then x date comes and it gets pushed back now it’s y date then z. per stelantis this part is under their “engineer review” and now it’s unknown when they will release this part.
ABS module failure. Can’t even buy parts as they are unavailable. Jeep should be liable for this. If ABS prevents dangerous situations and the module is failed, they should be liable.
The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that the vehicle was difficult to stop. The traction control and cruise control features were inoperable. The parking brake, traction control, and ABS warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who determined the failure was caused by the ABS control module. An unknown local dealer was contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and opened a case. The approximate failure mileage was 161,000.
I took my Jeep in to be serviced by my mechanic due to the ABS, brake and traction control lights being on. The issue is the ABS module is faulty. I was told I could drive it but use caution in rain and ice. I was also told by my mechanic he had another customer with the same issue and it took the customer several months to find the part. Now, I need to begin the hunt for a dealership that has an ABS module and be charged about $2000 including labor costs. Why is this happening to the ABS modules? Is the ABS module faulty to begin with? My Jeep has about 62,300 miles on it. Why am I having to replace a part that should last the life of the vehicle? Yes, many years ago vehicles did not have ABS. Now, modern vehicles do. When the ABS module fails it can cause too many issues for the vehicle plus it’s not only putting the occupants of the vehicle in danger but also others on the road. So then why are so many Jeep owners having to replace the ABS module when it should be a long-lasting component?
ABS Module failure resulting in abs and traction control systems not functioning properly putting myself and others at risk for injury. There is no replacement part available and Mopar indicates there is no current production for a replacement part. This is a well known problem that the manufacturer has failed to provide a safe solution for.
The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while driving 30 MPH, the ABS, traction control, and brake warning lights all appeared on the instrument panel.

ABS module failed and the Jeep began violently shaking on the freeway. There is a significant risk of the brakes locking up which put myself and the general public at risk. A dealer confirmed however there are no parts to buy from Stellantis/Mopar. They are on an "indefinite backorder". Even getting them rebuilt is impossible because they are unable to get the parts. ABS, brake, and traction control all came on when the module failed and the death rattle started. This has left me with a dangerous and almost completely useless vehicle for over a year with no resolution in sight. This is a public emergency with so many vehicles that this is happening to and we need a resolution.
Red brake light came on dash. Dealership investigated & found faulty ABS control Module. Dealership said it is a very common issue and poses a significant safety risk as the anti lock brakes are inoperable.
