I know many others that have a similar issue with and without inCommand.
I've replaced or Dometic has replaced everything except for the wires. Still pushing Dometic for a resolution but all they say is take it to a service center. Of course the service center is not going to have someone live it for a few weeks so they can observe the problem when it happens at night.
I'm working my way up the chain in hopes of getting a chance to discuss the problem with someone who knows how things work and can resolve it.

My last trailer (2014 Cougar) had a Dometic thermostat that failed then went through 4 new ones trying to get one to work properly. Finally got one that seemed to work pretty well. It would however seem to stop functioning for periods of time, particularly at night, and the compressor would not come on. Eventually it would....usually. I got up several times in the middle of the night when we got too warm, turned it off, turned it on and boom, back in business. Thought it was all those replacements but.....
Bought this new 2020 with the same unit more or less (has the heat pump), been staying in it this trip for about 6 weeks and I've had to repeat that process once already. I think they're just crap and unfortunately we're stuck with them as I've been told by Dometic.
