The entire radio system begins to get white ghost lines which affects the rear back-up camera and rear safety systems, and it also affects the parking brakes when the vehicle is in park or stopped. The use of the radio system is required to do basic maintenance on the vehicle such as brake changes.
The screen started to glitch out for periods at a time. Now it is just black and nothing works on it now, including the backup camera (safety issue). The seat warmers and steering wheel warmer is on but now there-??s no way to turn them off. The amount of people that complain of the same issues online is insane, this needs to be recalled.
the dash board light comes on and turns off and this drains the battery, tried to start vehicle 2X to revive it and disconnected the display battery cord so the battery doen't turn on the display. Battery has been replaced new but screen is not working. Dealership has done diagnostics and radio replacement recommended

The radio screen is glitching and only showing about 1/4 of the screen this inhibits me from seeing the back up camera or GPS on the screen. This is a safety concern.
Radio screen had lines going up and down, goes black while driving, car play disconnects, backup camera won-??t work with lines going across screen or screen being black,
The automobile will shut off during driving. On three separate occasions while driving the automobile has lost all drivability. The first occasion I was leaving work (01/02/2025) and as I went to accelerate on to the road from a dead stop, the engine shut off. I had to place the car back in park and depress the brake to start the engine again (by depressing the start engine button). The second occasion happened as I was entering the expressway (01/07/2025). I was turning off the main road onto the onramp of the expressway when the engine shut off again. This time I was accelerating up to around 40 mph when the engine shut off. Luckily, I was able to coast to a stop in the emergency lane. The steering locked up due to the engine shut down so I was not able to restart the car until putting it back in park to start the whole start sequence. The third occasion happened today (01/16/2025) as I was leaving school. I was leaving the parking lot when I went to accelerate from a stop the engine shut off again.
The touch screen has been an issue It does not come on. It his controls the heated steering wheel and cannot be shut off which then over eats and makes it impossible to touch. The screen controls the heated seats and the heat in general.
My Jeep has incredibly high oil consumption. I am putting a quart of oil in every two weeks even after an oil change. My car also stalls intermittently, it has even turned completely off on the freeway. The electrical in my car goes in and out and my display for my radio is completely blacked out.
Interior navigation screen has stopped working which interferes with the back up camera & other important features of the vehicle. Nothing specific happened, just went black on half of the screen one day
Original U Connect system screen delamination! This is a big problem for many users on jeep models 2018! Because of this the system makes random calls from my contacts well I-??m driving! I am driving 30 miles a day on the highway and this is becoming a safety issue! Like me many people are waiting for a recall but nothing is coming since 2018!!! Very dangerous when I am driving with my GPS on and the radio calls people randomly and I have to hangs up on people every 5 seconds and then my contacts call me back and have to explain my situation! This is unacceptable! Please help us ??
My touchscreen is acting up and cannot use it for backup or any thing. This needs to be addressed as i need my backup camera to work as I back up when I park and is a requirement for my job.
My speedometer will change from MPH to KM on its own while i am driving. It will also keep changing back and forth making it a driver distraction. My dash screen is also going bad. I will definitely take it in for an inspection. I pulled into a rest area to assess what was going on with the electrical problem. There were not any warnings at all. It just happened so I have not informed anyone yet.
The uconnect screen for the instrument controls and back up camera is partially blank. Had the uconnect replaced 3 years ago under extended warranty. This is the 2nd uconnect to go bad.
The LED screen went out and I cannot access any of the controls. Someone tapped my screen when it was blacked out/not working and now my audio only comes out of the back left speaker and the bass is up so high I can barely listen to music. It needs replaced, this is a distracted driving hazard, I-??m shocked there is not a recall after seeing multiple message boards that it is an issue with many of these models. However not surprising since JEEP is cheap and I will never be purchasing one again.
Radio display screen stopped working. Black screen. Back-up camera rendered unusable. Upon further research, this appears to be a common and expensive issue for Jeep Renegades that should be looked into by Jeep.
My screen is not visible. Which doesnt allow me to use camera to reverse or backup with visibly seeing what behind through screen, which causes to be a hazard. Replacing will cause me tons of money that i dont have. Which mechanic stated there has been many jeeps that has had same problem.
Radio has backup that went black. Cost is $1,200-$2,000 to get the radio fix. The map feature doesn-??t work. Backup feature doesn-??t work. I can-??t adjust radio stations. I live in rural TN and need my radio to work for my protection. I live on social security. That would be my whole month paycheck. It should be covered.
