Appears the Jeep in order to save money has put people in a dangerous issue the vehicle has NO dash light in the day time in less you turn on the parking lights or headlights, I understand that daytime running lights are not required ( SHOULD BE A LAW )there are no daytime running lights so NO dash lights and on a over cast day you can not see the speedometer. I have looked on the Wranglers owners site and appears most jeeps do not have dash lights in the day time the instrument panel sets far enough into the dash you just can not see the instruments. This is a dangerous as you don't know your speed.

SIGNAL SAFETY: MY COMPLAINT IS THE POOR DESIGN AND SERIOUS SAFETY FLAW OF THE FRONT-END SIDE MARKERS ON ALL 2007 TO PRESENT DAY, JEEP JK/U WRANGLER MODELS. ALTHOUGH THESE VEHICLES HAVE LIGHTED FRONT-END SIDE MARKERS, THEY DO NOT HAVE A TURN INDICATOR FEATURE INSTALLED, CREATING A SERIOUS HAZARD TO DRIVERS WHEN CHANGING LANES, MERGING INTO TRAFFIC, OR SIMPLY TURNING. OTHER VEHICLES AND/OR PEDESTRIANS THAT ARE ALONG EITHER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ARE UNABLE TO VISUALLY SEE THE REAR OR FRONT OF THE VEHICLE, HAVE NO INDICATION OF THE DRIVER'S INTENTIONS WHEN PERFORMING ANY OF THE ACTIONS MENTIONED EARLIER. ALTHOUGH FEDERAL AND MOST STATE LAWS REQUIRE LIGHTED FRONT AND REAR WARNING/SIGNAL INDICATORS, I AM UNSURE WHAT IS REQUIRED FOR SIDE/ABEAM SIGNALS. THIS IS THE FIRST MODERN VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE THIS SIMPLE SAFETY FEATURE AND IT IS ONE THAT SHOULD, SIMILAR TO [EURO] REPEATERS, BE ON ALL U.S. DRIVEN AUTOMOBILES AND TRUCKS TO AVOID COLLISION, OR POSSIBLY LOSS OF HUMAN LIFE.
