My 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee touch screen is delaminating. I have attempted to contact uconnect and Jeep. Uconnect initially agreed to replace the screen free of charge after having it diagnosed, but once I had it diagnosed and called back uconnect claimed the first representative that approved the replacement was wrong and now refuses to rectify the situation. The screen has "ghost" touches - basically selecting options by itself, and the back up camera delays or freezes some of the time, not displaying the live video. The dealer diagnosed the delamination. There were no warnings or other indications of a problem. I only learned what was causing these issues by googling the bubbles in my screen. Based on the research I've done since, it appears this problem will get worse, changing climate control settings, system settings, heater settings, entertainment (radio) settings, and "drive mode" type settings eventually. I have seen so many posts on it spanning multiple models and model years, all related to the same problem with the same symptoms, it should really qualify for a recall. I am afraid to let my soon-to-be 16 yr old drive my car because of the distraction this defect can cause, and there is no prevention or reasonable remedy. The screen has not been intentionally damaged, no wipes or other products have been used on it regularly, and it is kept garaged when it is not being driven. The vehicle is used in a normal manner -driving to/from work and practice on city streets and highways, and is not subject to abuse. From my research it is a manufacturer's defect in the screen itself, which can only be avoided or resolved by replacing the unit. If owners don't cause the issue, and can't prevent it by any kind of regular maintenance, training, or care, then it isn't an issue owners should suffer safety concerns or financial obligations over.
I have had continued issues with my vehicle for over four months. It started as noticing the "favorite artist" button not working on the vehicle correctly. It then changed to the screen restarting while I was driving down the road, sometimes multiple times. It then progressed to the backup camera freezing, which has almost caused multiple accidents. The dealership upgraded the software, replaced the backup camera, and most recently replaced the radio itself. After multiple visits and time spent waiting for my vehicle to be fixed under warranty, there doesn't seem to be anything else they can do to fix my problem. I believe my vehicle is a lemon, and I do not feel safe with the electrical issues. Since testing and getting replacement parts, my vehicle continues to restart its screen randomly, the backup camera freezes, and the artist button does not work half the time. The screen restarting mid drive freaks me out because it just stops and restarts, and the backup issue is a major safety concern. It often stays frozen for long periods of time. (not able to upload video evidence, only picture of screen). Screen at one point wouldn't let me back up without turning off the parking sensors because it thought their was something behind the car, and there was physically nothing to make the sensor think that way. Have had multiple service calls trying to fix the issue and am now going to venture down the lemon law lane.
The screen in my car will get stuck on my reverse camera, freeze that way for minutes after I've put the car into drive. It will also randomly cut off and back on which is distracting and annoying.
I shifted from park to drive to reverse out of my parking space to shift to drive. I was driving on the road when I noticed the screen stuck on the reverse image. It was bot do anything and remained frozen until I reached my destination.
