Stellantis announced a recall of approximately 955,000 vehicles worldwide, including nearly 848,000 in the U.S., due to a software issue that may disrupt rearview camera displays. The affected models span Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram brands from model years 2026 to 2027.

The recall includes popular vehicles such as the Chrysler Pacifica, Dodge Charger, Jeep Cherokee, and Ram 1500. The issue arises from radio software that may prevent rear-view cameras from operating correctly. Stellantis has stated it is unaware of any accidents or injuries related to the glitch.

The company plans to address the problem with an over-the-air software update for affected U.S. vehicles, according to CBS News. In the meantime, drivers are advised to remain aware of their surroundings and use traditional mirrors when reversing if the rearview display is not functioning properly.

Additionally, Stellantis is recalling about 107,000 vehicles in Canada, Mexico, and other international markets due to the same software issue. The recall underscores the growing importance of software reliability in modern vehicle systems as automakers increasingly integrate advanced safety features.
