Since the last over-the -air (OTA) software update, numerous systems have malfunctioned and then fixed themselves. The exception is the dashboard lighting problem to be addressed by NHTSA Recall # 23V-576, FCA Recall # 88A which also started with the latest update, is continuous, not intermittent. I feel the most serious malfunction is when a turn signal will not turn off, irregardless of manual control/lever use. Overall, my main question / complaint is since all these problems were installed by the OTA update, why can't the fixes also be installed OTA instead of having going to the dealership? Thank you.

Dear Representative, my 2022 Jeep compass has a recall related to the brightness level of display. According to manufacturer's claim, the brightness on the instrument panel center cluster needs to be adjustable to provide at least two levels of brightness. Based on this problem, safety risk is defined as "An IPC display that is not visible to the driver may result in the driver's attention being distracted from the driving task while trying to locate a desired display, which can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning." in your website. It seems the safety risk is related to the low brightness level of the display. When it comes to my car, the brightness is not adjustable. It stays in the highest brightness level. Since the brightness level is at the highest level, it does not cause any safety risk. Please check the pictures I uploaded in this claim. Intentionally, I took these photos during a sunny day which will allow you to see how clear and visible the display due to high brightness level is in one of the extreme condition (i.e., in a sunny day). Even the brightness level is adjustable, there is no higher level than what the display has now. May I request you to remove the recall on my car? Thank you

After approximately 16 months of proper operation, the instrument cluster in the dash would no longer dim after dark. The vehicle has an "auto-dim" feature that reduces dash illumination from "full on" daytime illumination to an appropriate level for nighttime driving. With this lighting malfunction, the instrument cluster is extremely bright after dark and compromises the driver's night vision resulting in glare and with extended exposure, mental fatigue. In order to safely operate the vehicle after dark, one must prop a piece of paper or similar mask over the instrument cluster, obscuring view of the speedometer and other dash warning lights. This lighting malfunction is well covered on numerous Jeep owner blogs and message boards. I have had the vehicle inspected by the dealer where it was purchased and the diagnosis was the same as reported by many other owners: "There is no known cause and thereby, NO KNOWN FIX". There problem is acknowledged by FCS in their internal STAR CASE #S2208000157.

3 weeks after I got my 2022 Jeep compass, I noticed I couldn-??t see how fast I was going, if I need gas, or anything on the cluster steering panel (the part that tells you how much gas you have, and how fast you-??re going) it-??s been taken to Jeep 3 times, I-??ve contacted Jeep themselves (corporate) I-??ve been told my VIN has no recall but the dealership indicates I-??m having the ambient sensor issue (but only 90 cars have recall on it) Basically the cluster light display is very dim in the day light. This is a hazard and unsafe due to the fact that I can-??t see how fast I-??m going, I can-??t see when I need gas. I-??ve been told the parts can-??t be ordered until my car is on the recall list. It-??s getting frustrating to have a brand new car with this not working, and it-??s very unsafe. I could run out of gas and not even know, I could get a speeding ticket or in an accident. It-??s not fair.

I purchased my 2022 Jeep Compass on March 26, 2022 and at the time it was functioning correctly, but about 7 months in to owning my vehicle the infotainment screen and gauge clusters (center clusters) went so dim that I could not see those screen anymore during the daylight. I called my dealership to report the issue, but at the time they did not know anything about it, so I had to deal with it till I did my own research and figured out that there was a recall going on. I called back took it in and they documented it, and communicated that currently no fix is released. A few months pass and my life and other in the vehicle are at risk each time I drive my car as I am unable to read the screen or properly use my infotainment center for directions and such. My safety and safety of others is extremely important and currently at risk each time I drive my car. There were a few messages that came up when I first bought my car that stated something about my screen needing service so I took it back to the dealership the next day (the message came up same day I bought my car) and they said that it was find and that nothing needed to be done. I am reporting this because my Jeep is impacted with this defect and I am needing it fixed as it is extremely dangerous as well as I bought my car new and expect the basic amenities to work properly. I do have an open case directly with Jeep but they are extremely hard to get ahold of.

Instrumentation not bright enough during daylight. Per NHTSA campaign ID number 23v058000. Mine was not included in the recall. They say they can-??t repair Jeep engineering working on it. How did they fix the recall cars?

While driving, my dash went out completely. I can-??t see how fast I-??m going, or any information concerning my car.

The interior displays, instrument panel, and touch screen are stuck in bright day mode. The dimmer switch in the dash will not respond or change the brightness but still turns the overhead lights on and off. At night this causes blinding conditions and a glare on the windows decreasing visibility. The issue is to be investigated by the dealer, there was a wait to get it checked. There are no warning lights and the vehicle may be inspected at any time.

- Reynoldsville, PA, USA

Infotainment system and dashboard lighting is stuck on the brightest setting and not able to be turned down. Seems to be a software glitch or something. Driving at night is more difficult as blinded by the bright displays.

- Bloomfield Hills, MI, USA

During night driving, the instrument cluster does not dim, staying bright and I am unable to manually lower the brightness, this produces a glare around the car which makes it extremely difficult to drive at night, I have also had instances where the instrument cluster dims during the day for a brief period of time where I can hardly read my current speed, then it returns to being bright after a few moments. I have not taken the car into Jeep for service yet but have an appointment scheduled.

- Huntley, MT, USA

Every morning the instrument panel and the radio/navigation screen are very dark. All of a sudden it will turn on. Sometimes a mile down the road and sometimes 5 miles down the road. Sometimes it never turns on. If I need to use the gps/navigation directions this is a big issue as I cannot see the screen. I cannot see the gas guage or instrument warnings. I cannot see the spedometer.

- Trenton, MI, USA

Middle cluster of dashboard is extremely dim and unresponsive to attempts in settings to alter/fix it. We have 2 additional 2022 Compass models in our family, and all three have this issue. We are submitting separate reports for each VIN.

Greetings, There is day time dash dimming issues, and unable to adjust manually. Anti collision feature randomly turns off while driving. Auto on and off feature for fuel economy has not worked in 14 months. Finally, a hard gear jerking event occurs when traveling at slow speed that feels like being rear ended by another vehicle. Not feeling safe with this Jeep. Dealer had the vehicle for week to tell me these are known issues with no remedy available. Please help!

- Las Vegas, NV, USA

Dash lights, hazard button, radio stuck in night mode. Fuel gauge, speedometer, engine temperature and check engine/ tire pressure gauge are not visible in daylight. Creates a hazard when unable to see viable information like a flat tire, engine overheating, or low on gas. Tried to get it fixed but was told jeep currently has not issued a solution to fix it.

- Mooresville , IN, USA

Dashboard screen behind steering wheel and middle dashboard mounted screen are not adjusting for brightness during the day. The only things you can read during the day are the large velocity number in the center on the driver side screen and the blue line for route directions on the middle screen.. At night or very dim driving conditions the screens are bright enough to read, but in full sun it is all but viewless. I've read that there have been some recalls (90 vehicles) that were manufactured in summer 2022, but my VIN is not on that list.

The cluster display on my vehicle is dim too non visible in full sunlight, daylight operating conditions. Automatic display functions turned off and manual brightness adjusted full, yet the dim to non existent backlight does not change. I been told this is a problem and FCA engineers are looking at, but at what priority. It seems that more and more of these complaints are showing up. There needs to be a recall to fix.

- Macomb, MI, USA

The cluster digital display on the 2022 Jeep Compass appears dim in full sunlight and during the day when there is -??minimum backlighting.-?? The car has been to the dealer multiple times and has been reported to the manufacturer. I-??m being told there is no fix at this and the engineers are working on it. I was told I would be notified with an -??update-?? when it becomes available. I-??ve experienced this issue for over a year. Not being able to see the instrument panel in the daylight is a safety issue.

- Akron, OH, USA

Instrumental cluster display does not display during daylight hours. Gas gauge and speed gauges are not visible due to faulty illumination. Inability to view during operation diverts is a safety hazard. I have taken the vehicle to Dodge service centers twice but they are unable to fix or repair this issue stating that they have not been told of this problem by Dodge/Chrysler.
