My touchscreen is delaminating. I can't use the radio, the Navigation system or interior climate control system. If the radio is turned on, it jumps from station to station, the phone system has called 911 several times, and dials random numbers from my contact list. This is a safety hazard because of the random dialing and distraction it causes. This condition is only happening on this model year. The product is defective and dangerous. I have owned 5 Jeeps in a row and never had this problem with the radio or touch screen.

The uConnected display screen mal-functions to the point of being a dangerous distraction. Phantom jumping between radio stations, switching from AC to heat etc, changes other controls and will not allow use of touch systems. The screen shows obvious signs of de-lamination. I noted that many others are have the same issue with their uConnect displays. Super dangerous. Dealer' CSR said "Sorry, not their problem. Said it must've gotten wet". Since then I have learned this is a common problem with all Jeeps of this era. Mine is a 2018. Is there anything NHTSA is doing to recall these? It's dangerous and we have stopped driving unless absolutely necessary.

My UConnect radio has been malfunctioning for a few months now. I've seen this on Jeep forums being a major issue with 2018 jeeps. My radio stations would randomly change while driving. The volume know would stop working, my Navigation stopped working and would place my location in a completely different state. Last week, while driving my UConnect would randomly turn on the AC and then switch to heat and then turn it off, and then switch between modules. The Sunday after Thanksgiving, I was driving my parents to the airport using the GPS on my phone but connecting it to Apple Car Play so that I could still see the navigation on the UConnect Screen. While driving and coming up to multiple lanes in which their were different highways to take, my Uconnect starts going haywire. It was completely nervewracking and was super distracting. My parents were in the car and were very frightened as I wasn't sure which lane I was supposed to be in and where to go. I had to grab my phone, unlcock it and look at my phone. Very dangerous! Then the other night as I was driving on the highway, I had my Front and Rear Defroster on as the weather called for this and all of sudden, the defroster shuts off and the AC (Max AC) comes on at full blast. My front windshield fogged up super quickly. I turned on my wipers and literally starting moving lanes to the right lane as I was frantically pushing the controls to get it back to defrost. I could have died by going off the road as I could not see where I was going or if there were any cars! Thankfully, I rolled down the windows, slowed down and found the breakdown line by hearing the safety strip under my tires. I put on my hazards and prayed. I know I need a new UConnect, but all the dealers want to charge me $170 or more just to diagnose the vehicle. I don't want it diagnosed..I want it fixed. And this should not be my responsibility to fix something that is a huge safety concern. Please contact me ASAP.

All three brake lights stayed illuminated during car operation regardless of brake pedal pressed. I was able to shift and start my car without pressing the brake putting my family and other pedestrians at risk of being run over if the car shifted out of park unexpectedly. Also no warning lights were on at all, so I drove on the road with my brake lights illuminated increasing risk for injury or death in a crash. It turns out the part is a hydraulic control unit. It was reading 120psi when the pedal wasn-??t even pressed. This was replaced by an independent shop and fixed the issue. I found out that there was a recall done on 2011-2022 Jeep Grand Cherokees. This recall was -??Equipment Safety Recall 21A NHTSA 23E-019-??. This recall calls out this exact problem for our exact model and the exact part replaced. My vehicle did not qualify for this recall for some reason which does not make sense because of the following information. The Julian date range for the failed part is 8166-9106. The part pulled out of my vehicle has a Julian date of 8228. I am more than willing to provide photos and any documentation showing this repairs high cost and that it was done. There needs to be another recall with these cars to include mine and many others as this issue could cause death of unsuspecting people around the vehicle. It-??s ridiculous that my vehicle did not qualify for this recall when I have an obviously failed part that FCA knows about but refuses to fix or reimburse me for. Please investigate this and enact a recall to fix a problem that was bad enough to be recalled once for another batch of cars. There are other cars out there that could cause death or serious injury.

I was just driving down the freeway and out of nowhere. My jeep started calling and hanging up and recalling everybody in my frequently called list. I tried turning off the screen, but it turned itself back on and started doing it again. Everybody who I just called over and over unintentionally. We-??re trying to call me back, but it would hang up on them. It was as if a ghost was in my screen. I have not had this looked at by the dealership, but upon researching the issue it appears this is a common problem in the 2018 jeep grand Cherokee. My hands are still shaking from the incident as it was extremely unsafe and distracting. It all startled me so bad I almost drove off the road. It would-??ve been one thing if I could-??ve just turned it off, but the fact that I kept turning itself back on, is very disconcerting. I tried turning white screen. It was on to the radio, and then it kept changing stations on its own rapidly and repeatedly.

The monitor/screen is delaminating. This is causing the screen to go haywire. It asks me if I want to adjust my clock setting every couple seconds which makes using the screen for anything else impossible; at times I can't adjust my heat, use the navigation system, etc. This is a known issue per numerous Jeep forums I've visited where hundreds of people are having the same issue with a defective screen on the 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokees, but Jeep still hasn't done a recall.

2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Radio screen delamination, causing heating/defrost/seats/clock reset/radio channels cycling quickly, lack of navigation on screen. Very distracting when traveling/trying to reach the hospitals. At first it was very distracting while traveling, and didn't allow me to use any features/controls, and could've easily took my eyes off the road and have an accident. I can't use the radio when I need to, for certain situations, not just entertainment but location as I travel with work at times, and my wife and I both frequent hospitals with my heart issues and her lower GI issues. It just started appearing late in July 2023 and you can see something under the radio screen as if its a sticker/protective cover on the radio and it looks like its separating from the inside. I have it going into the shop for diagnosis 11/29/2023 but it is continually getting worse to where I can't use the radio/nav/comfort features at all and need to for our safety/travel, and winter is rapidly approaching.

There is a known screen delamination issue with the screens on this vehicle. It is a major safety issue since it will be randomly turning on and off devices as you are trying to drive the vehicle. This is a major distraction and there is no way to turn off the system

- New City, NY, USA

The Uconnect screen is delaminating and malfunctioning. I am unable to control what the screen randomly touches which includes controlling the temperature in the car. I am not able to properly set the temperature and direction of the heat to defog my windshield while driving. It creates a hazard while driving when my windows fog up and I can't see while driving on the expressway going 50mph.

2018 Grand Cherokee....As you are aware of this already, the radio screen started delaminating and now the crystals are leaking out of he bottom of the screen. This in turn causes all the systems to go off and on at random, that can be controlled by the screen. All safety functions are now disabled due to this problem. Several attempts were made to contact the dealership and jeep customer care, only to be told that here is nothing they can do and to buy a new one. They also said there was no guarantee that the new radio wouldn't do the same thing. This is a top of the line high altitude grand cherokee that now doesn't have any of the safety features and comforts that i paid top dollar for. Jeep should honor their quality control issues but have been blowing everyone off. I have been on many forums and they are having the same issue. I got your website from one of the forums and can't believe that is has been a long time since they posted and you couldn't do anything about it so far. Thanks for listening, Don Thompson 717-945-9933

Have a 2018 jeep grand Cherokee that audio and, computer control screen is delaminating, causing erratic behavior of the stereo and other random controls like the heated seats turning on and off caused by the delamination of the screen shortly out of the manufacturer warranty of 36,000 miles and I took it to the dealership and they told me it was not covered under warranty and that I would have to pay for a new computer controlled screen I feel this is a safety concern because it can cause distracted driving

The screen on the UConnect system in my 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee recently started delaminating. More recently, it has started to randomly change radio stations or make other "phantom" changes while I'm driving without me touching anything. This is clearly a safety issue as it is very distracting while I'm driving. After extensive research online it appears that this is a very common issue with vehicles like mine and Jeep hasn't done anything to help owners get this issue fixed. I keep my car in great shape so there hasn't been any user damage.

This vehicle will not move (intermitant problem) at times when the vehicle is placed in drive or reverse. The gear shift console and dash will flash and the vehicle is rendred useless. I have to turn off and restart the vehicle to resolve the problem. Temporary fix. It keeps happening. This vehicle has been in the shop 3 times (dealing with this issue for over a year). Noone knows what the problem is. No codes are thrown. Jeep has been contacted. Several forums I have looked at online state this problem with no resolution. The problem is someone is going to be killed or seriously injured. When it leaves me stranded in an intersection, which it did, I have a major problem. A resolution has to be found. Its not allowing me to upload video. I do have video of this happening which has been shown to the dealership and the adjuster of my extended warrenty company.

The control center of the vehicle (radio) comes on and makes calls and also turns on equipment in the vehicle that distracts the driver from driving. If you power it off it will come back on. It controls your phone and navigation and all climate controls in vehicle. Jeep is aware of the problem but will not do anything to fix it. We tell people not to text and drive and this vechicle does it without you knowing which causes eyes to go off the road. We have already experienced a close call with the distracting of a driver

- Ripley , WV, USA

Infortament system delamination and ghost touching of the Navigation screen could distract drivers which directly related to driving safety.

- Apo, AL, USA

Auto start/stop turns car off completely, requiring putting the car in park and manually restarting the car. Causing a possible rear end collision at traffic light.

- Maumee, OH, USA

The "UCONNECT" touch screen infotainment system is delaminating which causes rapid and continuous "ghost" touches. This is extremely distracting and unnerving. This will occur on any screen. Radio, navigation, climate control, sos, etc. are all affected by this. When this occurs it is very difficult to concentrate on driving due to the rapid succesion of ghost touches.
