Jeep bulletin 16C Combo
Jeep filed this with NHTSA as a emissions communication dated Dec 11, 2025, received Dec 17, 2025, about the electrical system. It names 8 model years (2018–2022). A emissions communication is not a safety recall — there is no NHTSA campaign number and no federal requirement — but it is usually work the manufacturer pays for on the vehicles it names; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is Jeep 16C Combo a recall?
No. A emissions communication 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 16C Combo repair free?
A emissions communication is usually paid by the manufacturer on the vehicles it names, within the terms and time limit the document sets; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.
Which vehicles does 16C Combo cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 8 model years: 2022 Jeep Gladiator, 2021 Jeep Gladiator, 2020 Jeep Gladiator, 2022 Jeep Wrangler, 2021 Jeep Wrangler, 2020 Jeep Wrangler and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
