Transport Canada recall 2026271 · manufacturer campaign 21D

4 June 2026

Transport Canada lists: Gladiator 2021–2025 · Wrangler 2021–2025

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the connection for the electric hydraulic power steering pump (EHPSP) could become loose. If this happens, the EHPSP connection could overheat and melt.

Why it matters

Wiring that overheats and melts can create a fire risk, even while the vehicle is parked and turned off.

What the dealer will do

To reduce the safety risk, FCA recommends that you should park your vehicle outside and away from other vehicles or buildings until the recall repairs are completed. FCA Canada will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the EHPSP and the wiring.

13 April 2023

Transport Canada lists: Gladiator 2021–2023 · Wrangler 2021–2023 · 1500 2022–2023

What is wrong

On certain vehicles equipped with a 3.0 L diesel engine, the high-pressure fuel pump could fail. If this happens, you may notice a change in engine performance, a fuel leak, or a malfunction indicator lamp and/or service electronic throttle control tell-tale may turn on. This could also result in a sudden loss of engine power while driving.

Why it matters

A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the high-pressure fuel pump. Additional fuel system parts may be replaced, if necessary.

Transport Canada recall 2023089 · manufacturer campaign 19A

23 February 2023

Transport Canada lists: Gladiator 2020–2023 · Wrangler 2018–2023

What is wrong

Under certain conditions, the clutch pressure plate could overheat and break. If this happens, the pressure plate may also crack or break the transmission case. This could cause debris to fall from the vehicle. Note: This recall only affects certain vehicles equipped with a 3.6 L engine and a manual transmission. Vehicles repaired under FCA Canada recalls Y01, Y03 and Y07 (Transport Canada recall 2021-035) also require this repair.

Why it matters

Debris from an overheated and fractured pressure plate could contact nearby parts and increase the risk of a fire. Parts that fall from the vehicle could create a road hazard for others and increase the risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and advise you to tale your vehicle to a dealership to replace the clutch assembly. The dealer will also inspect and, if necessary, update the instrument panel cluster and powertrain control module software.

25 August 2022

Transport Canada lists: Gladiator 2021 · Wrangler 2020–2021 · 1500 2020–2021

What is wrong

On certain vehicles equipped with a 3.0 L diesel engine, a software problem could cause the radio to reset. If you shift to reverse while the computer is resetting, the rearview camera image will not appear on the display. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the transmission is shifted into reverse gear.

Why it matters

A rearview camera image that is slow to appear could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the radio software.
