What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: This recall involves a safety-critical vehicle component with zero reported incidents, injuries, or property damage. While faulty reverse lights could potentially increase crash risk by reducing visibility, the hazard is theoretical and no crashes have been reported. Per the severity rubric, recalls with theoretical risk but no reported injuries score at most High (3).
Plain-English summary
Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2021-2023 Jeep Renegade vehicles. The incorrect bumper reverse light assembly may have been installed in these vehicles, causing them to fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, which governs lamps and reflective devices.
Reverse lights are critical safety components that inform other drivers and pedestrians that a vehicle is backing up. If the reverse lights do not function properly, other road users may not realize a vehicle is backing up. This reduced visibility increases the risk of a collision.
Approximately 2,135 vehicles are potentially affected. Owners were notified by mail on January 30, 2025. Dealers will inspect and replace the bumper reverse light assembly free of charge. Owners can contact FCA customer service at 1-800-853-1403 or call the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 for more information.
