The uconnect radio is delaminating and there causing to jump from station or it will jump to resetting the clock causing me to look away from the road which is a distraction and I also believe that it controls more thrn just the radio. I called Chrysler customer care and was told it is my expense. But when I took it to a Chrysler dealership u was told by the tech on duty it was s known problem.
Dodge Charger scatpack 2018 has a issue with the radio where it's constantly pressing buttons because of the screen having air bubbles/ delamination. It turns on the heated seats, heated steeeing wheel and messes with my sports mode where it's changing my steering from norm to sport. It is a distraction while driving because you have to constantly click the x button. This is a serious issue that could cause many accidents.
The touch screen uconnect stereo is delaminating which makes the display hard to see which also allows humidity to enter the gap and makes the stereo flip between settings (radio, nav, seat heating controls, climate control) and proceeds to randomly click the touchscreen interface buttons. This causes distractions and has resulted in a frozen touch screen while driving (which renders the climate controls dead as well as backup camera, navigation and the stereo). After taking this to the dealer I was told that I was past my warranty which means this is an out of pocket fix.
While driving the radio breaks up and just shuts off completely. It takes a few minutes before you can turn it back on with the power button. This has to be an electronic problem?? this only happens while in motion it is factory radio it as never been messed with.
2018 Dodge Charger with 8. 4 u-connect radio system with sirius radio option. Sirius has weather/traffic updates which continually pop up on screen. I've documented pop-ups numerous times on short trips. I've created a log showing as many as three in a 20 minute drive. Additionally, the warning reports are for areas outside my zip code (they are for another state). A driver have to take their eyes off the roadway and look at the radio display to cancel the alert. Sirius and Dodge are aware of this issue but there has been no patch to cure the issue or cancel and turn off the alerts. I just spoke to a service representative at sirius and they ware aware of many complaints. Dodge has been made aware of this situation. This is a common complaint listed on Dodge forums. I am a traffic school and dui instructor for the city of las vegas. I can tell you this is a serious distraction that can cause traffic accidents by drivers diverting their attention from driving to cancelling the pop up notices.
