Chrysler is recalling 199,143 vehicles, including 2021-2024 Jeep Wrangler and 2022-2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee models. A software error in the hybrid control processor (HCP) can cause the windshield defrosting and defogging system to stop working entirely. This failure means the vehicles do not meet federal safety standards for visibility and can lead to a crash if the driver cannot see through the windshield in cold or humid weather. Dealers will provide a free software update to fix the issue.
If the defrosting and defogging system fails, ice or fog can build up on the windshield and significantly reduce the driver's visibility. This loss of visibility increases the likelihood of a crash, especially in hazardous weather conditions.
