Stellantis is recalling nearly 1 million vehicles because a software problem may stop the rear view camera from working properly. The recall affects selected 2025 and 2026 model year vehicles from Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge and Ram.
The company says radio software may interfere with the rear view camera display. When the system does not work correctly, drivers may not be able to see the area behind the vehicle on the media screen while reversing.
This can create a safety concern because a working rear view camera helps drivers spot people, vehicles and objects behind them. Stellantis is addressing the problem with a software update rather than a physical repair.
Which Jeep and Stellantis Vehicles Are Affected?
The recall covers a wide range of vehicles across the Stellantis lineup. Several Jeep models are included, making this an important recall for Jeep owners to check.
The affected Jeep vehicles include the 2026 Jeep Cherokee, Compass, Gladiator, Grand Cherokee, Grand Cherokee L, Grand Wagoneer, Grand Wagoneer L and Wrangler.
The recall also covers 2026 Ram 1500 and Ram 2500 pickups. Certain Ram ProMaster and ProMaster EV vans are included as well.
For Chrysler, the affected vehicles include the 2026 and 2027 Chrysler Pacifica, Pacifica Plug in Hybrid and Voyager minivans. The 2026 and 2027 Dodge Charger are also part of the recall.
Although the issue is related to software, owners should take the recall seriously. A rear view camera that fails to display properly can reduce visibility when reversing. The problem is not limited to one specific Jeep model, as multiple Jeep vehicles are included in the recall.
How Jeep Owners Can Get the Fix
Stellantis says affected owners will receive a software update prompt directly on their vehicle's media screen. This update is intended to correct the radio software issue and restore proper rear view camera operation.
Jeep owners should pay attention to any software update notification that appears on the media screen. Following the instructions provided by the vehicle can help ensure the required update is installed.
Owners who have questions about the recall can contact Stellantis at 1 800 853 1403. It is also important for Jeep owners to keep their vehicle information available when seeking assistance.
The recall affects selected vehicles rather than every Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge or Ram model. Therefore, owners should confirm whether their specific vehicle is included before assuming that it is affected.
For Jeep drivers, the main concern is the potential loss of the rear view camera display. Since the camera provides additional visibility while reversing, restoring the system is an important safety step.
The recall shows how vehicle software has become an increasingly important part of modern car safety. A software problem can affect a feature that drivers depend on every day, even when the vehicle itself has no mechanical fault.
Jeep owners with an affected vehicle should watch for the software update prompt and follow the available instructions. If there are questions about the recall or the update, contacting Stellantis at the provided number is the recommended next step.
