Who Is Chrysler and Why Is It Recalling These Jeeps for Tire Pressure Monitoring Problems?

Chrysler, formally FCA US LLC, is the Stellantis-owned company behind these Jeeps, and it traced the problem to software in a radio frequency hub module made by Valeo North America, Inc. It’s a software fix. If your Jeep was built in the windows listed below, the dashboard warning Chrysler says may not work is the one you count on to catch a slow leak.

What Did Chrysler Find Wrong With the Tire Pressure Monitors in These Jeeps?

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 138 says every vehicle must have a system that detects a significantly underinflated tire and lights a low-pressure warning. These Jeeps fall short. Chrysler’s report says software in the radio frequency hub can stop the system from spotting low pressure, or from lighting the warning at all.

The risk is simple. A driver could roll on a low tire with no dashboard warning, and Chrysler’s Part 573 report says that “can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning.” Some owners may see a service message, a warning light, or dashes where tire pressure numbers belong.

The clock started August 28, 2025. Chrysler’s engineers found three separate causes before the company decided on August 26, 2026, that these Jeeps didn’t meet the federal standard. That’s 363 days from first test concern to a formal decision, and some of these Jeeps were already on the road.

Which Jeeps Are in the Chrysler Tire Pressure Monitoring Recall?

Here’s exactly how to know if your Jeep is in the Chrysler tire pressure recall, before you spend time on the phone. Start with model and build date.

Model	Model Years	Built Between	Vehicles
Jeep Grand Cherokee	2024–2026	Feb 13, 2024 – Jun 12, 2026	113,647
Jeep Grand Cherokee L	2024–2026	Jan 11, 2024 – May 22, 2026	57,456
Jeep Wagoneer	2024–2025	Aug 27, 2024 – Nov 23, 2025	16,456
Jeep Wagoneer L	2025	Jun 2, 2025 – Nov 22, 2025	9,749
Jeep Grand Wagoneer	2024–2026	Apr 4, 2024 – Feb 17, 2026	3,046
Jeep Grand Wagoneer L	2025–2026	Jun 2, 2025 – Feb 17, 2026	1,094
Jeep Grand Cherokee PHEV	2024–2026	Nov 30, 2023 – Nov 25, 2025	526
Jeep Cherokee	2026	Dec 17, 2025	1
Jeep Grand Wagoneer L PHEV	2026	Jan 14, 2026	1

Two rows are one Jeep each. The Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L account for 171,103 of the 201,976 recalled vehicles, so most owners reading this drive one of those two.

Not in the recall:

• Jeeps of the same models built before or after the windows above
• Any 2024 model-year Jeep that had a working system at first sale
• Older Grand Cherokees from 2021–2023, which sit in a separate recall

Own a Ram too? Stellantis software recalls carry their own VIN lists, like the Ram instrument-display recall we covered in More Than 72,000 Ram Trucks Recalled For Blank Instrument Displays—Is Yours Affected?

Driving a 2024 or newer Grand Cherokee? Then this recall may be about you, and a single VIN lookup on NHTSA’s site will settle the question.

Jeep Owners in Every State — Are You Still Covered?

This is a federal safety recall, so it applies to covered Jeeps in every U.S. state, from California to Maine. Outside the U.S., it’s unclear. The NHTSA filing covers U.S. vehicles, and I couldn’t confirm whether Canada or other markets have a matching recall.

Been in a crash? If you think a missing tire warning played a part, a free legal consultation with a product liability attorney can help you understand your options.

Will Chrysler Pay Jeep Owners for the Tire Pressure Monitoring Recall?

Chrysler will fix it for free, but it isn’t sending checks. The remedy is updated radio frequency hub software, installed by a Jeep dealer at no charge to you. No claim form, no payout.

Already paid for a fix? Chrysler told NHTSA it will use its general reimbursement plan on file, so ask your dealer whether your earlier repair bill qualifies.

Chrysler pays for the fix. It doesn’t pay you. That’s normal for a safety recall, but it’s worth knowing before you go hunting for a settlement check that doesn’t exist.

What If a Tire Problem Led to a Crash Involving Your Jeep?

A recall repairs your Jeep. If a crash or injury may trace back to a missing tire warning, a product liability attorney can tell you whether compensation for damages is possible.

Here’s what stood out to me. Chrysler’s report estimates that 100% of the recalled vehicles have the defect, while in Hyundai Palisade Airbag Lawsuit And Recall 2026, What 500K+ Owners Need To Know About The Third-Row Defect only about 1% did. So if your Jeep is on this list, don’t assume yours is one of the few that’s fine.

Jeep Tire Pressure Monitoring Recall — Frequently Asked Questions, NHTSA Recall No. 26V559

Is my Jeep part of the Chrysler tire pressure monitoring recall?

It depends on model, model year, and build date. The recall covers certain 2024–2026 Grand Cherokee, Grand Cherokee L, Grand Wagoneer and other models built from November 30, 2023 through June 12, 2026. Enter your VIN at NHTSA.gov/recalls to confirm.

Do I have to pay for the Chrysler Jeep tire pressure recall fix?

No. Dealers will reprogram the radio frequency hub with updated software at no charge, according to Chrysler’s NHTSA filing. If you already paid to fix this problem, Chrysler says it will use its general reimbursement plan, so bring receipts to your dealer.

Is it safe to drive my Jeep before the tire pressure software update?

Chrysler’s report says a failed system can leave you without a low-pressure warning and can lead to a crash with no warning first. Check the NHTSA listing for any driving advisory, read your owner letter, and check your tires with a gauge in the meantime.

When will Chrysler mail the Jeep tire pressure recall letters?

Chrysler told NHTSA it will begin notifying owners on or about September 29, 2026, in phases through October 21, 2026. Dealers were to be notified on or about September 9. You don’t have to wait for the letter, since VINs have been searchable since September 9.

What does the Chrysler software update actually do for my Jeep?

Dealers reprogram the radio frequency hub module, made by Valeo North America, Inc., with updated software. Chrysler’s chronology lists three separate causes, including reference pressure values that get lost and values that stop updating. The remedy is software only, and no replacement part is listed.

Can I sue Chrysler over the Jeep tire pressure recall?

I found no class action tied to this recall as of September 21, 2026, and the recall itself pays nothing. If a crash or injury may trace back to the failed warning, a consumer rights lawyer can review whether a product liability claim exists.

Is the Jeep Grand Cherokee rear coil spring recall the same as this one?

No. That’s NHTSA Recall No. 26V562, Chrysler code 89D, covering 328,381 vehicles: 2021–2023 Grand Cherokee L and 2022–2023 Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee 4xe. This recall covers 2024–2026 model years, so one Grand Cherokee shouldn’t be on both lists. Check your VIN for each.

How do I check if my Jeep’s tire pressure recall has been repaired?

Enter your 17-character VIN at NHTSA.gov/recalls. It shows unrepaired recalls, and a clean vehicle shows “0 unrepaired recalls associated with this VIN.” It won’t show repairs already completed, and newly announced recalls may not list every VIN yet, so check again.
