ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The touch screen on my Dodge Ram has failed. A quick google search shows this is a widespread problem among all Chrysler vehicles. This is a safety issue as most of the controls for the vehicle are accessed through this screen. Further, it causes my radio to consistently change stations, turns the volume on my raid to max randomly while driving with scares me every time it transpires. I can not access any emergency services. The vehicle randomly shuts off even though it’s new. The screen randomly turns off while using it. It gets stuck on backup camera while driving or shuts the backup camera off during use. It changes the climate control consistently while driving. Turning on the heater to max when it’s 109 outside or flipping on the ac when it’s freezing. I can’t use the manual controls because the touch screen overrides them. I am constantly having to push buttons on this screen while driving to turn the volume down, but it keeps slamming back up to max with no way to stop it. I have to stop random emergency calls when it decides to make them, or control unbelievable climate conditions constantly changing while driving. If this isn’t an emergency issue that has possible grave consequences for drivers, idk what is. It is undoubtedly a safety hazard and the manufacture does not care. It is obviously a major flaw or design issue by the manufacturer and for public safety, there undoubtedly should be a recall on this. It’s not an issue of just being able to use the radio. What this screed controls, and what the defect is causing is a massive safety issue being ignored by the manufacturer and nhtsa. I’m sure this has led to fatalities, but how would we know if the people are dead?

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
2018 RAM 1500 eco diesel with LESS THAN 26,000 miles on it. My husband and I had a harrowing drive a couple weeks ago bc the power steering unit started to intermittingly cut out/fail (think hair pin turn on country roads at 55, you are CRANKING on the wheel bc power steering cut out, then halfway through the turn it decides to come back and now you are OVER steering). Again, we have less than 26k on this truck ((and it is BABIED)) so clearly this is a faulty part. We got it fixed (I have receipts), but per RAM the truck is "too old" thus "out of warranty" with no current recalls and thus my request I submitted to RAM to reimburse us for the faulty part was denied.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
There is a problem with the UConnect system where screen delaminating causes the system to be very erratic and make selections on it's own. It randomly selects any of a number of screens and makes selections within those screens causing major distraction while driving. This affects every selectable component including Radio, Media, Climate, Apps, Controls, Phone and Settings. This also takes my desire to run Max AC and instead gives Max Heat! Backup Camera, and many other issues. This is clearly worthy of investigation given the number of complaints I see on NHTSA for these issue. Please make this a recall.

Potential Consequences:
The ram 8.4 uconnect screen is delaminating. This causing the screen to "ghost click" everywhere constantly. This includes: randomly calling people, changing radio stations, changing volume, clicking in and out of my map/navigation, changing clock, changing climate control, etc. It is very distracting and dangerous while driving. Its basically unusable and even once it started an emergency call over and over.

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The 8.4 inch navigation screen in the center cluster. This issue is available for inspection. The touchscreen is delaminating. As this thin film independently pulls itself away from the surface behind it, the screen behaves as though a person is pressing the buttons. This issue has rendered the navigation screen unusable because as soon as one makes a selection on the screen, another and many other selections are pressed immediately thereafter. Currently, the pressure seems to be focused on the Sirius XM selection and so it just continuously is pressed. However, yesterday while leaving work for the day, the screen selected a person from my contact list and placed a phone call, catching me off guard, as I did not initiate the phone call. There is a function to dial 911 on this Uconnect platform and so it is only a matter of time before my pickup decides to contact 911 without my knowledge or need/desire. An unexpected phone call to a contact or let alone 911 emergency dispatch would serve as a distraction to any driver and may lead to a serious accident. The navigation function of the screen is not usable because as soon as one tries to input an address or select a location, the screen makes its own selection. Attempts to correct this are fruitless. If one needs directions to a location, maybe hospital or emergency room (listed as options on the Uconnect platform), this screen is rendered completely unreliable. Also available on the screen is the ability to adjust the climate control. We did experience this on a road trip recently and the screen kept changing our climate selections. Changes made, quite rapidly, between the upper vents, the lower vents, and defrost all while changing the temperature and speed of the air delivered. Imagine driving in 100+ heat and you are unable to maintain a cool interior cab, especially if young children are on board. This Uconnect navigation screen was a selling point but is now a potential dangerous liability.

Touch screen that displays the rearview reverse camera overheats and is separating the digitizer from the glass causing the display to go off. Went to the dealership in Columbia IL.

The UCONNECT 8.4 screen has delaminated and phantom touches constantly. I the phantom touches have caused several distractions to include turning on the rear view camera, adjusting the climate control settings, and calling people if a phone is connected. I have had almost two accidents caused by the distractions that this issue has caused while driving and been pulled over for using a cell phone to stop a call that screen made. The dealership has seen the vehicle and told me it is a common occurrence for this model of UCONNECT. I have called UCONNECT and Ram to see if they would replace the screen and have refused to do so.
