More than 7,000 Jeep vehicles recalled due to rearview camera display issue

A software issue potentially affecting the rearview camera display in select Jeep Wagoneer and Grand Cherokee models has prompted a recall of more than 7,000 vehicles.
According to the recall notice issued Dec. 19 by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA Canada), the issue prevents the camera display from appearing in some vehicles when put in reverse.
FCA Canada confirms the recall extends to a total of 7,025 vehicles, all 2024 models, including:
- Jeep Wagoneer
- Jeep Grand Wagoneer
- Jeep Grand Cherokee
FCA Canada says owners should bring their vehicle to an accredited dealership for an update of the rearview camera module software.
Canada’s Motor Vehicle Safety Act was updated in 2017 to require the technology be included in all new passenger cars, SUVs, light pickup trucks and minivans beginning in May 2018.
