What's recalled

Component: Backup camera / back-over prevention (sensing system, camera)

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L vehicles. A radio software error may prevent the rearview image from displaying. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."

The risk

A rearview camera that does not display an image reduces the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash.

Status: NHTSA lists Dec 28, 2021 as the owner-notification date for this campaign.
