More than 848,000 Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram vehicles are being recalled in the U.S. because a software issue may prevent the rearview camera image from appearing while drivers are backing up.

FCA US LLC, the Stellantis subsidiary behind the Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram brands, is voluntarily recalling an estimated 848,511 vehicles, according to information posted by Mopar, the company's parts, service and customer-care brand.

The company says radio software in the affected vehicles may prevent the rearview image from appearing on the vehicle's media screen when the vehicle is placed in reverse. There may be no advanced warning before the problem occurs.

FCA says it is unaware of any related accidents or injuries.

The recall covers certain:

• 2026-27 Chrysler Pacifica, Pacifica Plug-in Hybrid and Voyager minivans

• 2026-27 Dodge Charger vehicles

• 2026 Jeep Cherokee, Compass, Gladiator, Grand Cherokee, Grand Cherokee L, Grand Wagoneer, Grand Wagoneer L and Wrangler vehicles

• 2026 Ram 1500 and 2500 pickups and ProMaster and ProMaster EV vans

The problem is with the radio software responsible for displaying the image, not the rearview camera itself.

An over-the-air software update is expected to become available in September. A prompt will appear on the vehicle's media screen when the update is available, and owners are encouraged to accept it and follow the on-screen instructions.

Owners who successfully install the update over the air will not need to visit a dealership. If the update cannot be completed remotely, a dealer can install it free of charge.

The company says owners can continue driving their vehicles before installing the update. Drivers are advised to remain aware of their surroundings and use their rearview and side mirrors when reversing.

Beginning Aug. 20, owners can check whether their vehicle is affected by entering its vehicle identification number on Mopar's recall website. Recall notices will also be mailed to affected owners beginning in September.
