2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer and 1 other Jeep model: back over prevention recall

A rearview camera that does not display an image reduces the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash.

moderate 7 vehicles affected FMVSS 111

What was reported

Source: manufacturer filing, 49 CFR Part 573
Problem Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2022 Jeep Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer vehicles. The radio software may prevent the rearview image from displaying. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility." Risk A rearview camera that does not display an image reduces the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash. Fix Dealers will reprogram the radio software, free of charge. All affected vehicles are still within dealership inventory and therefore no owner notification letters will be sent. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall is YA1.

Reported to NHTSA Dec 21, 2021 by Chrysler (FCA US, LLC), owners notified Jan 24, 2022.

What that means, in plain English

Source: WhichTrim's reading of the filing above — not NHTSA's wording

A rearview camera software failure that prevents image display degrades a safety aid but does not directly cause a crash or disable primary vehicle controls; it is a regulatory non-compliance (FMVSS 111) fixed by a software reprogram on dealer-inventory vehicles.

Written for us by a language model from the manufacturer's filed text, which is quoted in full above. Where the two differ, the filing is the record and this is only our summary of it.

The fix, from the dealer bulletin

Stop-sale Not stated in the dealer documents
Remedy Instructions filed: the dealer bulletin exists

Read from NHTSA’s copy of the manufacturer’s dealer documents (manufacturer campaign YA1). The procedure itself is in the bulletin; a franchised dealer has the current copy on the manufacturer’s portal, and that copy governs. Working a lot or a fleet? Recall Watch carries this line on every VIN it checks: remedy status, hours, stop-sale.

Check one specific vehicle

A recall applies to a build range, so year, make and model cannot settle it. Type the VIN and the WhichTrim recall report checks this campaign’s build window and engine against it.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR Part 573

Is YA1 the same recall as 21V00A000?

Yes. YA1 is the number Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) uses for this campaign in its own paperwork and in the letter it sends owners. 21V00A000 is the number NHTSA files it under. One recall, two references — dealers and service departments generally quote the manufacturer's.

Does this recall repair cost anything?

No. Federal law requires the manufacturer to remedy a safety defect or a compliance failure at no charge, for vehicles up to 15 years old measured from the date of first sale. A dealer that asks you to pay for a recall repair is in the wrong.

How do I know whether my vehicle is included?

By VIN, not by model year. The manufacturer files a build range with NHTSA and only vehicles inside it are covered, so two identical-looking cars from the same year can differ. NHTSA's own lookup checks a VIN against the manufacturer's list.

What if the repair is not available yet?

It happens, and often. Manufacturers must notify owners when a defect is found even if the parts or the software are not ready, then notify them a second time once the remedy exists. The remedy filed for this campaign is described above.

What did the manufacturer say was wrong?

The problem, risk and fix quoted on this page are the manufacturer's own words as filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR Part 573. WhichTrim does not paraphrase them.

Who started this recall?

NHTSA's record credits the manufacturer. A recall can begin with the manufacturer's own testing, with a defect investigation, or with a compliance test against a Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard.
