Stellantis is recalling approximately 955,000 vehicles globally due to a software defect in the radio system that may disrupt the rear-view camera functionality.
The issue affects multiple models equipped with Uconnect systems, which could fail to display the rear camera feed when the vehicle is shifted into reverse. Stellantis stated the defect poses a safety risk as it impairs driver visibility.
The recall encompasses vehicles produced between 2014 and 2022, including models from the Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Chrysler, and Fiat brands. The company has not reported any accidents or injuries linked to the defect but emphasized the importance of addressing the issue promptly.
Owners of the affected vehicles will be notified by mail and instructed to visit authorized dealerships for a software update free of charge. Stellantis has coordinated with regulators, including the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), to facilitate the recall process.
