Defect Description:
EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Potential Consequences:
The center 8.5" Information/Entertainment touch screen is delaminating. The delamination is creating "ghosting" of the system causing cycling through various screens and applications. This is VERY distracting and dangerous by removing eyes off the road to see what is happening. If navigating with built-in Nav or via external (Apple Play), the ghosting changes destinations, cancels navigation and/or changes displays. When occurring at key turn points, diverts driver focus from the road to the screen. If they system is in radio, the ghosting will cycle through every radio station randomly, distracting from the road and creating distracting noise/sound. I have mentioned this to two separate Jeep dealers. They state it occurred out of warranty and it will cost me over $1000 to fix it. I am on a Jeep forum where this is happening to many other 2018 8.5" touchscreen systems.

Potential Consequences:
The jeeps radio failed that controls safety features in the vehicle this was caused by a delaminating touch screen. The touch screen would select options on its own including safety and driving settings due to this defect. It is widely posted about in 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles with this display. Mopar customer support denied the claim to reimburse me for the radio because I was not the original owner. As the second owner, ive been put in a financial loss for a 1,000 dollar radio that controls all the safety features in the vehicle.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Uconnect screen with radio/nav/driver controls is delaminating, causing screens to change and overriding all driver selections. Jeep customer care says the only option is for owners to pay $1,000 to replace the unit with a dealer. This Jeep Overland is a 2018, and the problem appears to be endemic among Jeeps. It creates serious safety issues when the unit overrides driver choices, and is also distracting as the unit beeps and switches back and forth among options.

Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
I bought my car used last year with a small bubble on the Uconnect screen. Jeep is aware of the problem and called it delamination. I am not worried about the aesthetics, but it is not safe. I am assuming that the pressure built up between the screens causes the "buttons" to act like they are being pressed and the screen is turning features on and off on the car. It changes radio stations, turns the seat warmers on which I can not turn off and it gets to hot, and my main worry is it is going to hit the emergency services button when there is not an emergency. There is no way to disable the screen. It is not safe and very distracting while operating the vehicle. I called Chrysler/Jeep and they are aware of the problem but will not call in a "good will warranty" because I bought the vehicle used. I researched the internet and this affecting many consumers in many makes and model years. The repair is costly. I am writing hoping that a recall is issued because driving while you car is turning functions on and off is distracting and dangerous. I appreciate any help you may offer.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Electronic radio unit constantly flips around to different areas beeping all the time. I think it is called phantom touches. It will change radio channels, affects climate control by turning up heat to 82 degrees, turns on backup camera while driving down the road at 70 miles an hour, constantly changes radio stations, doesn't allow you to use navigation system, plus many other things. I believe this is a known issue as I have seen many complaints on the internet and my dealership also has customers complaining about their cars. I have also made my dealership aware of the issue. They say there is nothing they can do as there has been no recall. There needs to be a recall on these as it is very dangerous to be driving when these things are occurring. Very distracting and you are unable to do anything about it. Sometimes you have to pull over and shut the car off and turn it back on to see if you can correct it but many times it keeps on doing the same thing.

Potential Consequences:
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 Dodge/Chrysler Forums to be an issue among a large group of Dodge/Chrysler Year Model 2018 owners.

Potential Consequences:
The battery under my passenger seat caught on fire. The car was completely turned off and parked in my driveway. When I went to leave I opened the car door and black smoke was rolling out. 30 minutes prior I drove the car and there was no warning lights or issues. It was driving like normal. The car is currently being inspected by Jeep and my insurance. My husband and I's safety would have been at risk if we did not catch the fire as soon as we did, not only our lives but it could have hurt our neighbors who live close. As we were outside working when the fire started you could not smell or see the smoke coming out of the car.

A staff member dealer service center and the electronic store with whom we discussed it said that this was a common problem with this car. But it is not covered by the limited warranty at this juncture and will be over 1200 dollars with labor. It seems more like a defect. Particularly in humid or times when there is a change in temperature, the touch screen begins self triggering, acting as if it's being rapidly and randomly pressed hundreds of times, triggering screen functions, dialing actual calls, changing radio stations, changing climate temperatures, turning on seat heating, etc. This is very distracting while driving. In addition it means that the climate controls on the car cannot be used. It appears that the touch screen glass has slightly separated from the underlying screen in the right upper quadrant, but it's hard to tell. If this is happening on many jeeps, it is a manufacturing issue and there should be a recall.
Corrective Action:

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The component that is malfunctioning is the film behind the UConnect screen delaminating making the screen difficult to read in that area. Ensuring that the right screen icon/button is being pushed is made difficult because the screen is affected. This draws my attention away from the road in order to use the screen/the icons in the upper left corner. The problem has been confirmed as a known issue through UConnect and the Jeep Dealership and there has been a service bulletin put out for this issue (per reporting of representatives of each of the aforementioned). UConnect reps have stated they get calls regarding this regularly. Multiple instances from other Jeep/Chrysler consumers can be found on online forums. The component has been inspected and delamination was confirmed at the dealership. Due to the cost of the repair, I can not financially address this issue at this time. There are no warnings or messages related to this issue.

The touchscreen that controls heating/air/radio/backup camera/etc... is going haywire during driving the vehicle.
