Jeep will not include my vehicle in the Instrument cluster failure because they predetermined which vin numbers were affected and did not include my 2020 Jeep Gladiator on the list. But my vehicle clearly has the electrical problem causing the center instrument cluster to not work and be blank. I cannot see how many miles I drove or how much gas is in the tank and cannot see anything outside of MPH and RPM.

I reported over a year ago that my center display went blank and is still blank. When I first reported the problem the first recalls came out on other gladiators but mine wasn't included in that recall. And still today every gladiator has been recalled except mine. I dont understand how older models and some 2020 and even new models have been recalled but mine still hasn't been. So here I am going on 2 years plus and nothing. Guessing how much gas is in my jeep is getting old especially since I paid so much for this vehicle. Its dangerous to drive since all your warnings and fuel is all on that display.

The instrument dash cluster stopped working December 13, 2025. I notified the dealership immediately a thy scheduled for us to bring it in December 16, 2025. This is a safety concern because no warning would be visible, no gas gauge visible, no odometer availability either. I took it to the Jeep dealership we bought it from and they confirmed the faulty instrument dash cluster. Currently our Jeep Gladiator has been marked out of service since December 16, 2025. Files a Jeep claim and was assigned a Case Manager. Original quote for the part to become available was 45 days from December 17, 2025. Then supplier canceled the part order so the dealership’s parts department placed another order with an ETA of March 3, 2026. Supplier canceled the order again and now there’s no ETA but the part has been ordered. This is the 2nd major issue we’ve had. June 28, 2024 the transmission went in this Jeep with less than 35000 miles on it.

One morning the instrumental cluster display would not display mileage, fuel capacity, temperature, or any notifications. The dealership inspected it for a blow fuse and a computer reset and determined the display shorted and would need to be replaced. I called FCA regarding a recall for this exact problem on 2020 Jeep gladiators and that this was a known safety issue released by nhtsa. I was told by FCA that this trim level was not included in this recall. My jeep Overlook was overlooked. Trim level deals with extras like heated seats not foundation electrical installation. The recall 30B is as follows: 5/8/2024ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL Summary Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2020-2024 Jeep Gladiator and 2018-2024 Jeep Wrangler vehicles. The instrument panel cluster may experience an internal short circuit and fail. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 101, “Controls and Displays.” Remedy: Dealers will replace the instrument panel cluster, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed between October 3, 2024, and January 23, 2025. Owners may contact FCA customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA’s number for this recall is 30B.

My 2020 Jeep Gladiator has a defective instrument panel screen. This appears identical to the current documented model recall yet Jeep does not include my VIN on the list of recalled vehicles. The current recall number is: NHTSA 24V-652. This presents a serious safety issue and I hope that someone from NHTSA is looking into this.

On [XXX], the cluster of my 2020 Gladiator JT turned black. After searching similar issues online, I found that there is an NHTSA Recall Number: 24V-652, Manufacturer Recall Number: 30B that affects Models: 2020–2024 Jeep Gladiator. The Issue is summarized as follow: " The IPC may experience an internal short circuit, leading to a blank screen. This malfunction prevents the display of critical information such as speed, fuel level, and warning indicators, posing a safety risk". This is exactly what I am experiencing with my car. I entered my VIN number [XXX] on the NHTSA website but my car has no recalls. I'd like to file a formal request to have this VIN number included in the recall so I can get this issue fixed rapidly. This is a safety hazard as it distract the driver's attention and is in violation of federal motor vehicle standard 101.

The main instrument cluster went blank while driving down the road. This happened without warning or notice. I lost speed, fuel, turn signal, engine data, tire pressure, etc. I’m driving blind. I’ve read that there was a recall initially issued in 2024, that only covered a little over 30,000 vehicles. According my VIN number, I was not covered under that recall for some reason. I am officially reporting this issue for my VIN number.

The instrument cluster failed back in the Spring. We took it to the dealer where it sat for 4 weeks while the part was back ordered. We took it back from the dealer and changed the batteries, the panel started working again for 3 months the and ultimately failed again. We have tried to manage the gas, but have run out twice on the highway, coming to an unexpected stop with little time to pull over. We can't see warning lights, gas level, cruise control status etc.
