Many 2018 Grand Cherokee Radio screen are de-laminating including mine, and on it's own which is a scary distraction changes stations suddenly constantly makes a loud beeping noise through the speakers- drops and makes phone calls, changes navigation directions - prevents you from making a phone call that could be an Emergency. This should be a safety recall since it happens when you lease expect it and causes the driver to jump. And all Chrysler Dodge Jeep dealer will not cover this over a thousand dollar plus issue.
Uconnect 4c/4c 8.4 inch display screen Issues: Screen is ghost touching, making choices on its own while driving, climate control will run haywire and do the opposite of what-??s needed to defrost window and it-??s can-??t be stopped or cut off, unable to get heating seats off and seats heat up so much it burns legs and sacrum, unable to use back up camera, cannot access radio, navigation system, anything that-??s needed that has to do with function of the vehicle that-??s operated by that screen is unable to be done because it-??s constantly chooses and self taps every. I have almost crashed many times due to this happening and it-??s very unsafe.
Driving and the display screen kept switching uncontrollable and caused a safety issue while I was driving and was not in a familiar place, and was trying to use the screen for navigation directions. Concern as it was switching screens/adjusting the heat controls while I was driving. Research indicates my screen has become delaminated and a known issue with this car. Concern that while I drive this continues and may be a safety risk.

Delamination of radio is causing the radio to change radio channels, not be able to use the handless phone option or adjust heated seats. The constant beeping when the radio is constantly and randomly changing channels is a safety hazard. FCA is aware of the issue and has not issued a recall and is denying repairs for the consumers.
I purchased a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The second I left the lot, the screen started flashing the Clock Settings screen. I researched this and it states that it's a known issue because the screen delaminates. I purchased a warranty and the company will not cover it. This is a SAFETY HAZARD. From hours of research, this issue has been known and Jeep needs to do a recall on this. If someone gets hurt pertaining to the disfunction of the screen and it's options, there will be a lawsuit and I don't think Jeep wants to deal with that. I'm trying to upload a video of what it does, but for some reason this website isn't letting me upload anything.
With less than 40k miles on my vehicle the leather dash on my Jeep has begun to delaminate. I'm concerned for the way this will impact the front passenger airbag to deploy in the event of a collision. Additionally this causes a viability issue due to the glare at certain times of the day when the sun is shining through the windshield and onto the dash.
UConnect navigation system shows current location as West Virginia but vehicle is in Missouri. If attempted to use or refer to onboard compass associated with system would result in significant driving direction/location mis-information. Software is current up to date for system; system is currently inoperable in this condition. Prior to this however navigation and compass were working correctly. Review of numerous Jeep online forums shows this navigation system failure to be quite common and likely requires complete radio/information system replacement. Why has no recall been issued?
The display screen in the center of the dashboard is delaminating. This is very dangerous becasue it randomly changes all the settings constantly. heat on/off, radio on/off anything that has a touch button on the screen (which is just about everything for that car) can randomly change at any time. It is getting worse as time goes on. This is a safety issue. When looking online I see this is very common for 2018 Jeeps, but is not a recall. It is a safety issue and should be a recall it is happening to so many 2018 Jeeps.
Uconnect screen started to delaminate causing phantom touches. Poses a danger and safety risk to driver and passengers. -??screen off-?? button does not work since it-??s registering touch. This also causes inability to control safety features.
Dash cover separating/bubbling from dash panel as if the adhesive under cover is releasing. My bigger concern is if the airbag had to deploy it would take/pull the entire cover of the dash instead of blowing out from its designed location possibly hindering the airbags effectiveness and safety. I know a similar recall has been issued in the past on previous model years that was a concern for this very thing.

My touchscreen has started to do "ghost touching" causing a disturbance to my driving because of being distracted. It will change the screen at any time causing a distraction it is available to be looked at at any time
Hello, There is a few things going on with this vehicle, this is a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee with 27k miles. Uploading recalls on this vehicle. 1. It has a fuel leak, this is a vehicle that does not have a gas cap, it has been fully diagnosed by the dealer, they want to charge $900 to repair plus a $250 diagnostic fee. 2. Car would not move, stopped abruptly, had to turn car on and off while in traffic in order to get car going, almost causing an accident. 3. Car will tell you its about to hit another car when it's not and will turn on and off while driving, almost causing an accident. Dealer does not want to take a look at the car unless you pay them $250, want to keep the car for a week and does not want to provide a car rental while car is under their diagnostic phase. Dealer assessing the car is Kendall Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram at 13355 SW 137th Ave, Miami, FL 33186, spoke to Lazaro Varas, assistant service manager. Please guide me on what to do, thank you.

Touchscreen is delaminating and changing settings on its own calling people etc and it's so frequent and moving around so fast that it's a safety hazard when I drive... its constant and erratic and getting worse and worse
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, [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The screen is delaminating a little bit not long after I bought the car. Now the delamination came down to the radio button. There is a -??ghost button-?? which makes the screen jump from the radio to the map nonstop. It is impossible to use the map even map from car play. It is very dangerous to drive on highway.
The UConnect touchscreen on my 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee has experienced delaminating and I currently experience phantom touches on the screen (I don't touch the screen but selections are randomly made). These phantom touches are a serious distraction to a driver and they happen frequently. Given all of the controls for the automobile that can be made from the screen, it is a serious safety issues to drivers of these vehicles with this issue as well as others on the road. I have read on numerous online forums that there have been many others that have or are currently experiencing this problem. I believe the auto maker should have these vehicles recalled and appropriately fixed. Please look into this issue ASAP before someone is hurt by the automaker's inaction. I'd be happy to answer any questions that you might have about this problem.
The Uconnect (screen with radio/nav/driver control) is "delaminating". Which means the one screen layer is separating from another layer. This causes the screen to change randomly. With the Uconnect on, I can expect the radio to change stations, AC/Heat to change temperatyre/speed and basically anything that the Uconnect controls. It all depends on what part of the screen is effected that particular day. It's a huge distraction and no way to eliminate using the Uconnect since it control some of the basic car functions. I am unawar of a fix o this problem.
