Typical collision avoidance system symptoms owners report
- Adaptive cruise control and automatic braking reportedly engaged too late to stop the vehicle before a collision.
- Forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking activated with no vehicle or obstacle present, applying brakes unexpectedly at highway speeds.
- Some owners report the automatic emergency braking warning light illuminated with no nearby vehicle detected, and no repair was performed.
- Backup camera reportedly went black and became inoperable after a radio system error that also triggered unrelated climate control issues.
- Park assist warning light stayed on and could not be deactivated even with the vehicle in park or neutral.
- One owner reported the anti-collision system failed to engage and the vehicle sped up instead of braking, resulting in a crash with minor injuries.

Forward collision avoidance: adaptive cruise control
Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2014 Dodge Durango vehicles manufactured January 16, 2014 to April 8, 2014, Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured January 16, 2014 to April 8, 2014, Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT vehicles manufactured February 3, 2014 to April 8, 2014, and Jeep Cherokee vehicles manufactured March 6, 2014 to April 17, 2014. When the adaptive cruise control is engaged and the driver presses the accelerator pedal to increase the vehicle's speed more than the cruise control system would on its own, the vehicle may continue to accelerate briefly after the accelerator pedal is released.
Risk: The unintended continued acceleration may increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will re-flash the Driver Assistance System Module (DASM), free of charge. The recall began in June 2014. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P31.
