In owners’ own words
Source: NHTSA complaint databaseFiled with NHTSA by the people who own these cars, about the electrical system. Quoted as written, with anything identifying removed; unverified reports — what was said, not a finding that it was true.
My infotainment screen and middle of my instrument cluster on the dash will not brighten during the day therefore I cannot see anything on either things. I have tried going into the settings, choosing manual settings to adjust the brightness but it is grayed out and not allowing me to make any changes
Forward collision sensor kept turning itself off, now my vehicle is telling me to service my headlights, 4WD, airbags and other sensors. Vehicle has also turned off while driving and deployed the AEB when driving. Have taken it to the dealership twice. Dealer contacted the manufacture which they were unable to determine the issue
The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that the digital display on the instrument cluster failed to illuminate some of the warning light features. The contact then stated that the digital display was dim, and the Infotainment system failed to adjust the settings.
The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that the instrument panel seized in night mode, leaving the display light extremely dim. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer who confirmed that the failure was a known issue; however, there was no repair available. The vehicle had not been repaired.
The dash lighting and radio are not dimmable, nearly impossible to see in bright daylight. Radio flashes on and off. Freezes up. Screens and input changes intermittently. The lights are sometimes too dark to see at night and dimmer switches don't do anything. I have had numerous problems with the electrical issues with this vehicle.
