Instrument panel dimmer does not work causing extreme brightness at night. Navigation panel does not switch to nighttime mode causing it to be a safety hazard if using while dark out. Backup camera is blinding at night, creating safety hazard. This occurs while stationary, while moving, during all types of driving when dark out. This has been an on-going issue from the day I bought the car with no resolution from the dealer.

The interior instrument panel and console lighting will not dim at night. This leads to a blinding situation. The dimmer switch functions only intermittently but the ip lights will go full bright after a short while after a vehicle restart. This occurs whether or not the car is moving or parked. Headlights are switched on to auto. The lights behave this way day or night. Appears to be a sensor issue.

Instrument cluster lighting control including dimmer, headlight 'on' sensor, dash ambiant light sensor, related software do not function properly. Unable to dim dash at night with dimmer control & or 'auto night dim' does not function. The blinding brightness of the dash at night is not only discomforting it is hazardous. This fault is well documented on internet forums & youtube videos.

Dimmer for dash lights / gauges does nothing. All interior gauges, controls, dials, etc. Stuck on full brightness. Very dangerous - makes it hard to operate vehicle at night with glaring gauges.

1. instrument panel lighting cannot be dimmed: Blinds driver during night driving. 2. the speedometer scale does not change from mph to kph. This becomes very problematic when crossing from the us to Canada!

Jeep will not allow dimming of the instrument panel or nav screen at night due to a light sensor in the instrument panel. Shown in the following video https://www.youtube.com/watch?V=6ajaaemp7W8&list=plxmx4zwlio2wjzsq8syupaesc_R8G-qto

The instrument panel dimmer switch is inoperable. The speedometer, and entire gauge cluster, is stuck on full brightness during nighttime driving and is very dangerous as it is blindingly bright in my face.

Instrument panel lighting fails to dim properly at night causing difficulty seeing at night due to the brightness of the display. I am able to get the display to be tricked into going into "night mode" if the display light sensor has no light at vehicle startup with headlights on. At any time if the sensor is exposed to light again such as if a door is opened or interior light is turned on the vehicle needs to be stopped, doors locked, and sitting for one minute for the workaround to be successful again.

In violation of FMVSS section S 5.3.2.2 (B) the vehicle's interior dashboard lights are not capable of being dimmed. They remain at brightest level regardless of any parking or headlight settings, and cannot be dimmed or turned off. This creates a dangerous condition during night time vehicle operation. Dealer has not been able to correct this even after two visits, and has made no progress in resolving this issue since vehicle purchased one month ago.

The vehicle's dash board lighting dimming function is not working and impairing the drivers night vision always being at the highest setting. Reporting this issue as this is not only affecting a single vehicle, but multiples. The Jeep headquarters were contacted by multiple effected owner as evident in the reference forum post, but Jeep does currently not take action.
