“The ABS wont go off it constantly stays on I put a brand new battery in it went out about a week later had to jump start it...When it rains or snow it is like my wipers and headlights goes crazy and sometimes my backup camera is all blue for no reason...I feel like there is something major wrong in the wiring somewhere”

NHTSA complaint #11702349, filed 2025-12

“My cluster display has been on dark night mode since January 2023. I purchased the vehicle in April 2022. During the day, I cannot see the cluster display, and have missed gas warning lights, low tire lights, and other emergency lights due to the dimness of the screen. It is a hazard to drive as daylight is longer-- and the navigation screen is also impossible to see during daylight hours. There is no way to brighten either the cluster display or navigation system. …”

“The whole dash is stuck on bright mode so when it is dark out it will not dim. They said it was my sensor. You can’t see nothing out the windshield because of how bright it is. So if a deer runs out in front of me I wouldn’t be able to see it tell last min. It has been confirmed by fillbacks with this issue and Jeep. It has been inspected. It has been like this sense I first bought it. Keep taking it to fillbacks they did nothing about it. It’s been over a year. Jeep won’t do nothing about it either.”

NHTSA complaint #11524968, filed 2023-06

“The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that the instrument panel and display screen was very dim, reducing driver visibility. The contact stated that there was condensation built up around the windows during rainy weather, causing an abnormal odor inside the vehicle. The contact stated that the condensation reduced the visibility while driving. The contact called the dealer and scheduled an appointment. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.”
