Example of the screen showing a single check mark to enable or disable the Auto-On Comfort feature.

This bulletin applies to 2018-2020 Jeep Wrangler vehicles built on or before January 24, 2020, equipped with a heated steering wheel or heated front seats and without remote start system.

Customers may comment on one or more of the following:
- If below 40 degrees F, the heated seats or heated steering wheel turn on by themselves.
- If above 80 degrees F, the vented seats turn on by themselves.
- Cannot turn off the auto-on comfort feature.

Place the ignition in the run position. Using wiTECH, perform a restore vehicles configuration under the “Activities” menu and “Guided Diagnostic” tab.
Place the ignition in the off position, disconnect the wiTECH Micropod and open and close the driver door. This will allow all modules to go to sleep and should take about one minute.
Clear all DTCs that may have been set in any module due to reprogramming.
Verify the “Auto-On Comfort” feature by going into the radio “Settings>Auto-On Comfort.” You should see a setting with a single check mark to enable or disable the “Auto-On Comfort” feature.
