This is the 2nd failure of the thermostat. We had the car towed to the same Chrysler dealer that fixed the first incident. We have an extended warranty that covered the first failure. This second failure is not covered due to the failed part is a mopar part and Chrysler is going to pay for everything, trouble is they have had my wife-??s car for two weeks already and the part isn-??t coming in until February 17, I am a 34 year retired Chrysler employee. The dealer doesn-??t offer rentals, and my extended warranty people offer rentals at $35 a day and only one week. Nowhere rents cars at that price. We have no choice but to wait on that part, but I am wondering how many chrysler products have had this problem, should be investigated for recall.

Center console with touch screen delaminating screen cover causing random and continuous malfunctions to navigation, heating/cooling climate controls, media (radio, hands-free telephone, and numerous uconnect software applications), and rear backup camera function. Potential for serious distraction and loss of multiple safety components like change lane warning systems, anti swerve technology, etc.

The control screen in the front center of the vehicle is not working. Backup camera, radio, AC/heat, Blutooth, navigation, nothing works and the screen will black out. It is a safety hazard driving as the screen will click and make loud noises.

The vehicle's LCD screen has become delaminated which causes the control of the radio, air conditioning, navigation, and other features controlled by the "radio" portion of the car to become dysfunctional. The car will randomly beep, change air temperatures, start navigation, cause the loss of hands-free communication. This is a safety hazard as it causes the driver to be distracted in order to attend to the incessant beeping and issues related to AC/heat, navigation or radio (volume, etc.). This appears from Chrysler Forums to be an issue among a large group of Chrysler 300 Year Model 2018 owners. I am encouraging them to file a concern with your group and to ask for a recall of the car for this reason.

My UConnect system periodically goes berserk and the radio changes from FM to AM, flashing on the screen between the radio and navigation system. Bluetooth won't work. My heat control settings do what they want. My backup camera sometimes stays on. The whole system sometimes shuts down than comes back on. The back up camera issue started about a year ago and is sporadic. The radio/navigation/heating issues just started about a month ago. This too is sporadic. I never know when it is going to happen. It is extremely distracting!!!! I can take the vehicle to the local dealer for inspection upon request. I will actually need to call to get this fixed, but I am hoping to receive a recall as I have read that there is/was a class action lawsuit for UConnect problems. These issues just happen right out of the blue, there is no warning of any kind. Needless to say I am not happy!

Delaminating screen causing all sorts of issues while driving. Changing stations, favorites, attempting to make calls which could lead to calling 911 in error, turning back on after I-??ve turned it off trying to avoid the car from calling randomly, adjusting climate, etc. all on its own. This is a known issue since 2015. Class action lawsuits have been filed. This is a huge safety hazard and a recall should be done. This is going to cause many crashes!

My 2017 Chrysler 300s has a screen that is delaminating which started about a year ago and now it's causing horrible issues. Just the other day on a trip home, I had my car play going and all of a sudden the screen was just clicking on icons randomly everywhere. And then it started making calls to both my son and daughter. There was nothing I could do as I was driving home on the freeway. When I got to my garage it took sometime for me to get it to stop. Even after I turned off the car and turned it back on it kept clicking on the icons. And then today it kept switching the radio stations as well as switching from FM to SIRRUS radio. This is a safety hazard as you become distracted by what is happening. I have not taken it in to a dealer and there is no warning when the screen will start doing whatever it wants. This is not a new problem for this model and beyond.
