Jeep bulletin 0824923

What it saysFlash: Battery Pack Control Module (BPCM) Diagnostic and System Update Customers may experience a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination. NHTSA’s full summary ↓

Jeep filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Nov 21, 2023, received Jan 16, 2024, about the exterior lighting. It names 1 model year (2021). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Jeep 0824923 a recall?

No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the 0824923 repair free?

Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way.

Which vehicles does 0824923 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 1 model year: 2021 Jeep Wrangler. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
