Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling 32 of its 2026 Jeep Wrangler vehicles because the child seat tether welds on the second-row, right-side seat frame may be insufficient. This defect means the seat may not properly restrain a child during a crash, failing to meet federal safety standards for child restraint systems. Dealers will replace the affected seat frame with a new one free of charge.

Risk

If the tether welds fail during a crash, a child seat may not be securely held in place, significantly increasing the risk of injury to a child occupant. There have been no reported incidents or injuries related to this defect.
