- Stellantis is recalling nearly 66,000 vehicles over three separate issues.
- Thousands of Ram trucks have a faulty instrument cluster display.
- The 2026 Jeep Cherokee and Wrangler have small recalls of their own.
Ford remains the undisputed recall king, but Stellantis is issuing three new campaigns that impact 65,621 vehicles. They include the Jeep Cherokee, Wrangler, and Ram pickups.
The biggest recall involves 65,348 Ram 1500, 2500, 3500, 4500, and 5500 vehicles from the 2025 and 2026 model years. They have a software error that can kill the instrument cluster display.

While you’d probably assume we’re talking about a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, the recall is over a tiny 3.5-inch display. Ram became aware of problems in January and eventually traced the issue back to “software that may cause the cluster to be inoperative at start up and/or while driving.”
Only 1% of the recalled models are believed to have the problem and dealership techs will update the instrument panel software. Owner notifications are scheduled to go out late next month.
Redesigned Cherokee Already Recalled
The second recall involves 241 Jeep Cherokees from 2026. They have a braking problem that can result in the loss of anti-lock brakes and electronic stability control.
The safety recall report is light on specifics, but points the blame at brake system control modules with faulty software. Stellantis opened their investigation in February and isn’t aware of any accidents or warranty claims related to the issue.
As part of the recall, dealers will “recalibrate the BSCM software with an updated version.” Impacted owners will be given a heads up later this month.
Wrangler Welds Gone Bad
The third and final recall is due to 32 Wranglers from 2026 that have insufficient welds on the child seat tethers. This means children might not be properly restrained in the event of a crash.
The government said the bad welds are on the right-side seat frame in the second-row. Only four vehicles are believed to have the problem, but they fail to comply with federal motor vehicle safety standards for child restraint anchorage systems.
To bring them into compliance, the seat frame will be replaced free of charge. Owners can expect to get a notification in the mail in May or June.
