Mopar Performance Acceleration Sensor

Mopar Performance Acceleration Sensors: OEM Precision You Can Trust

When your vehicle's safety systems depend on split-second data, the accuracy of your acceleration sensor isn't something to leave to chance. Mopar Performance brings the same factory-level engineering to its acceleration sensors that it applies across its entire OEM parts catalog — delivering components built to the exact tolerances your Stellantis vehicle demands.

What Does an Acceleration Sensor Do?

An acceleration sensor — sometimes called an accelerometer or impact sensor — measures the rate of change in a vehicle's velocity along one or more axes. These readings feed directly into critical safety and stability systems, including airbag deployment modules, electronic stability control (ESC), and anti-lock braking systems (ABS). A faulty or out-of-spec sensor can delay airbag deployment, trigger false fault codes, or compromise the responsiveness of your vehicle's safety electronics. Using the correct, properly calibrated replacement is essential.

Why Choose Mopar Performance for Acceleration Sensors?

Factory-backed engineering is at the core of what sets Mopar Performance apart. Mopar is the official parts, service, and performance brand for Stellantis North America, tracing its roots back to the 1930s as a supplier of factory replacement components. That heritage means every Mopar acceleration sensor is designed, tested, and validated against the same specifications used on the original assembly line.

• OEM-Standard Construction: Mopar acceleration sensors are manufactured to meet original equipment specifications for fit, form, and function — so there is no guesswork about compatibility or calibration.
• Direct-Fit Replacement: Designed as direct-fit replacements, these sensors install without modification, reducing labor time and the risk of installation error.
• Broad Vehicle Coverage: Mopar's acceleration sensor lineup spans a wide range of Stellantis platforms, including Ram 1500, Ram 2500/3500, Dodge Journey, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep Wrangler, and more — covering model years from the mid-2010s through the current 2025–2026 lineup.
• Multiple Sensor Positions: Available in front impact, side pillar (B-pillar, C-pillar), rear, and satellite accelerometer configurations to match the exact position required by your vehicle's supplemental restraint system (SRS).
• Single-Axis and Multi-Axis Options: Mopar offers both single-axis sensors for targeted directional measurement and multi-position satellite accelerometer units for more complex SRS architectures found in newer platforms.

Warranty and Quality Assurance

Mopar parts installed by a professional technician carry a 24-month warranty against defects in workmanship or materials. When installed at an authorized Stellantis dealership, that coverage extends further — if the Mopar part causes a secondary failure in another component, that repair is also covered under warranty. This level of accountability reflects Mopar's confidence in the quality of its components and the brand's deep integration with the vehicles they're designed for.

The Right Sensor for Your Stellantis Vehicle

Because acceleration sensors are tightly integrated with vehicle-specific SRS and stability control modules, correct part number selection is critical. Mopar's OEM part numbering system ensures you receive a sensor calibrated for your exact application — whether it's a front-end impact sensor on a 2025 Ram 1500, a side satellite accelerometer on a 2023 Jeep, or a rear sensor on a 2014–2021 Ram HD. Always verify fitment using your vehicle's VIN for the most accurate match when shopping Mopar Performance acceleration sensors.
