2024-2025 Jeep Compass Speed Limiter Indication TSB

Owners of 2024-2025 Jeep Compass vehicles may experience an incorrect speed limiter indication on the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC). This issue, detailed in Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 08-342-25, specifically occurs when the vehicle's system is set to imperial units. The TSB applies to vehicles built on or before July 10, 2025 (MDH 0710XX) that are equipped with the 10.25-inch TFT Color Display (Sales Code JAU).

Symptoms

If you own a 2024-2025 Jeep Compass, you might observe the following symptom:

• "Incorrect speed limiter indication shown on the IPC when the system is set to imperial units."

This problem is linked to the vehicle's Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) software. The TSB 08-342-25 aims to resolve this by updating the IPC with the latest available software.

Diagnosis

To diagnose this issue, a dealership technician will use a Scan Tool, such as wiTECH, to verify that all related systems are functioning correctly. If your vehicle exhibits the symptom of an incorrect speed limiter indication, the technician will proceed with the repair procedure outlined in the bulletin.

Repair Procedure Summary

To resolve the Jeep Compass speed limiter indication issue, the dealer will update the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) with the latest available software. The process involves:

1. Connecting a battery charger to the vehicle to ensure the battery voltage remains between 13.2 and 13.5 volts throughout the software flash process. This prevents interruptions that could lead to module damage.
2. Reprogramming the IPC using the wiTECH Diagnostic Application to install the updated software.
3. Clearing any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) that may have been set in any module during the reprogramming process. The wiTECH application is designed to automatically present and allow clearing of these codes after the flash.

Required Tools or Parts

Dealers will utilize a specialized diagnostic tool for this repair:

• wiTECH or Equivalent: This scan tool is necessary to perform the software reprogramming of the Instrument Panel Cluster.

Important Notes for Owners

While Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 08-342-25 explicitly states that it applies to "Enlarged Europe markets," the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has linked this document to 2024-2025 Jeep Compass models. Owners of these vehicles in the US should therefore be aware of this bulletin and consult their dealer if they experience the described symptom.

When your dealer performs the software update, they must follow specific procedures:

• A battery charger must be connected to maintain voltage between 13.2 and 13.5 volts throughout the flash process. This prevents power interruptions that could damage the module.
• If the software flash process is interrupted or aborted for any reason, it must be restarted from the beginning to ensure proper installation.

Warranty Information

This repair is reimbursable under the provisions of the vehicle's warranty. Dealers are instructed to use Failure Code CC (Customer Concern) if the customer's reported symptom matches the one identified in the TSB. When using this failure code, the 3C's (customer's concern, cause, and correction) must be documented for processing the flash/reprogramming conditions.
