What it saysService Electric Sway Bar Lamp On In Cluster. NHTSA’s full summary ↓
Stellantis filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Mar 6, 2026, received Mar 13, 2026, about the electrical system. It names 12 model years across Jeep and Ram (2024–2026). 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.

On the 2024 Jeep Wrangler, the 64 owners who gave an odometer reading for Electrical System reported it at a median of 15,000 miles. That figure is one model year’s, not the whole range this bulletin covers — medians from different model years are not averaged.

Common questions
Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5Is Stellantis S2602000001 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 S2602000001 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 S2602000001 cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 12 model years across 2 brands (Jeep and Ram): 2026 Jeep Gladiator, 2025 Jeep Gladiator, 2024 Jeep Gladiator, 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee and more. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
