I have been driving my 2024 wrangler 4xe with 15K miles and it started to message me that the blindspot sensor is not working and I need to service the vehicle. I turned off the sensors in the setting menu and drove like that for a few days until i was able to manage the issue. A week later the same issue came back while driving and as it tells me about the issue I noticed that my center console lights will flash on and off. I got scared and pulled over, turned the car off for a few minutes and then continued to drive with no issues. I noticed that every time this blind sensor message came on my center console lights will turn on/off and its got to the point that now my navigation screen is not working. The lights are off, no radio sound, not able to press any buttons and for some weird reason the temperature of the wrangler will go to 76F by it self. I can't change it because the screen and the buttons are off. Nothing is working. I am still able to drive the wrangler but not sure what is happening.
I wanted to ask before I take it to the dealer.
As you can see on the picture below the screen and the buttons below is OFF and don't work.

I'll get that error message when the sensors get dust on them when off roading; however, all of those other issues you are getting are a different story. I would take it to the dealership while you are still under warranty and while the issue can still be replicated. It might be something as simple as a software update or replacing the battery.

I get the Blind Spot Alert ... message after driving next to large rocks in the mountains.

After a restart, the system continues to function.

Seems like a loose connection or a bad control module somewhere. You definitely want the dealer to diagnose this. Good luck.

On my 23 Wrangler Rubi, I get the Blind Spot Alert message everytime I start up. My Jeep is not even equipped with any nanny features.

While our blind spot warning works fine when the Jeep is clean, a layer of dirt, mud, or thick dust will disable it. A quick wipe will usually solve the issue.

so i took my vehicle to the dealer and they tell me that they can't find any problem with the vehicle. According to them, they installed a scanner to the car and it doesn't show them any issues. The car is working as it should.
I was told that the vehicle has something like a black box that records any issues but they could not find any issues. So to them the vehicle is all good :facepalm:
Even after i showed them pictures of the dashboard OFF and the message on the dashboard.

I was told to just keep driving the car and if it happens again to make a video for evidence so they can show it to MOPAR or the dealer service manager.

so it's been a month after i took the wrangler to the dealer. During that visit they told me that there was nothing wrong with the car and that their scanner's could not find anything wrong or any bad code appeared.
It is now May 7th and the problem got worse. Now I turn on the vehicle and the entire radio and center console is OFF. no radio, no navigation, still have the message "blind spot sensor not working, service is required"
I will take it back to the dealer again and see what they say this time.

PS: keep in mind the vehicle is a 2024 wrangler High altitude 4xe with a little over 16K miles.

2025 Jeep Wrangler 4xe
I JUST bought a 2025 Wrangler 4xe ... legit drove it for 24 hours before I realized the Blind Side Assist temporarily unavailable alert was on. Took it to the dealership, and it has been there now for 2 weeks because they can't figure out what is wrong with it. Any ideas? The jeep is brand new. Doors have never been taken off (I did check the connection for the doors), and all the fuses were fine when I took it in (I checked that too). They are saying it MIGHT be a computer issue, but they can't locate the problem. Anyone have this issue? And what did it end up being?
