Jeep bulletin 09-010-26
Jeep filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Sep 5, 2026, received May 28, 2026, about the engine — 3 documents under this number: 09-010-26 REV. B, 09-010-26 REV. A. It names 5 model years (2025–2027). 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 579.5Is Jeep 09-010-26 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 09-010-26 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.

The manufacturer filed it against 5 model years: 2026 Jeep Compass, 2025 Jeep Compass, 2027 Jeep Compass, 2025 Jeep Renegade, 2026 Jeep Renegade. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
