    Chrysler is recalling an estimated 142,200 SUVs, about 6,000 in Canada, for software problems that could lead to a blackout of instrument panel lighting.

    About 6,050 of the recalled vehicles are in Canada.

    The company said it received reports that 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokees had warning-light illumination and instrument-panel blackouts, both of which occurred infrequently. The issues appeared to resolve themselves by turning the ignition off and then on, but regulatory compliance requires the panel cluster display information that is legible.

    Chrysler said its engineers discovered a problem with the SUV’s antilock braking system module that affects the instrument cluster display. It also has implications for the antilock brakes and electronic stability control systems, although Chrysler said it was unaware of any problems involving either.
