2020 Jeep Gladiator Electrical System Problems

Instrument Cluster/Dash panel electrical is shorting out and glitching while driving. Lights and messages go off while driving and then when the computer/vehicle resets the codes and lights go away. Then come back again. Garage checked out and could not find any electrical issues with Battery or Alternator and points towards the instrument cluster.

Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) Failure. The central Instrument cluster display went blank without warning unable to see fuel gauge, Temps and other gauges and warning lights are normally illuminated while the vehicle is in operation.

The contact owns a 2020 Jeep Gladiator. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the instrument panel went dark and displayed a black screen. The failure obstructed the driver's visibility of the speedometer, fuel gauge, and other components, which prevented the driver from safely operating the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with instrument panel failure. The vehicle was not repaired due to the cost. The contact stated that the failure worsened, and the instrument panel was inoperable. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 47,119.

The vehicle is experiencing intermittent electrical and communication failures affecting multiple systems. The issue first occurred approximately three weeks ago immediately after completing a normal drive. Since that time, the problem has occurred randomly and repeatedly. Following the initial event, multiple warning messages appeared, including “Service Shifter,” along with numerous fault codes indicating loss of communication between control modules. Both the main battery and auxiliary battery have been replaced; however, the issue persists with no improvement. Current symptoms include: •Intermittent loss of communication between modules •Repeated warning messages, including “Service Shifter” •Fault codes that temporarily clear but return after driving •Unpredictable and inconsistent vehicle system behavior The condition sometimes temporarily improves but the faults and warnings consistently return. This creates a safety risk due to unreliable vehicle operation, including potential loss of shifting capability, starting issues, or failure of electronically controlled systems while driving. The failure is ongoing and intermittent but reproducible. The vehicle has not been involved in any accidents related to this issue. Root cause is UNKNOWN but suspected to involve the auxiliary battery system, battery management system, wiring, or related electrical components.

The side mirror amber lights warning of a vehicle in the blind spot randomly illuminate and remain on for upwards of an hour or upon turning the vehicle off and back on. The dash randomly notifies me that the forward collision warning isn't available and both side mirror blind spot warning lights illuminate for upwards of an hour or until I turn off and restart the vehicle. The Dash randomly goes blank and doesn't display any information such as speed, RPM, warnings etc.

The contact owns a 2020 Jeep Gladiator. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the infotainment screen failed to function as intended. The screen turned black and remained black. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer and was pending a diagnostic test. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V652000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); however, the VIN was not included. The failure mileage was approximately 105,000.

The instrument cluster has gone black.

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.

The digital gauge cluster went blank and does not display any important information. 32k vehicles have been issued a recall but my VIN was not included. I also heard that 90k+ other vehicles had the same problem but new recall was not issued.

Instrument panel cluster has gone black. Checked fuses and they are well seated.

Our dash board has gone black and we can not see how fast we are going how much fuel we have or the milage or anything else on the dash. The radio still works but nothing else on the dash is working. there are 32,000 other vehicles with recalls on this same issue our truck does not fall under the recall batch but obviously should. this is a major safety issue

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.

Driving and center instrument cluster went blank. I can no longer see any digital display including but not limited to; gas, mileage, warning lights, digital speedometer, tire pressure...

Instrument cluster display quit working just black screen

The instrument panel cluster has gone blank. It was slowly going bad and eventually went out alltogether.

The instrument panel cluster (IPC) failed. The speedometer, fuel gauge, and other driver information displays no longer function. The vehicle and failed instrument cluster are available for inspection upon request. The failure resulted in loss of critical driving information, including vehicle speed and fuel level. This creates a safety risk because I cannot accurately monitor speed, receive warning indicators, or assess vehicle operating conditions while driving. The issue has been diagnosed by ASE certified shop No warning lamps or messages were displayed prior to the failure. The instrument cluster failed suddenly and without warning.
