Summary

Chrysler "FCA US, LLC" is recalling certain 2022 Jeep Compass vehicles.

Remedy

Dealers will replace the windshield and headlamp switch, add a light sensor module, and add a wiring jumper harness to allow the instrument panel center cluster display backlighting to function correctly, free of charge.
