| Sep 2025 | SUSPENSION,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE | Vehicle reverse camera will stay on while driving. Leak in gasket. Leak in right mount. Radiator issue undiagnosed. Car is available for inspection at anytime as it is currently inoperable and I do not have the thousands of dollars to fix what is wrong with it while it only has 53k miles and licensed repair shop (not dealership as I was told by tech there to get initial issues fixed outside for a lower cost - all repair and service records also available) has advised faulty parts as listed above. Forgive me, I am not a car person so I do not know what exact things, but can provide. Have been on the phone all morning with FCA, manufacturing, and back and forth until this information was received. I have pulled a recall list by VIN and found that some issues with my Jeep are on there; however, apparently my specific VIN is not associated with the recalls listed (can provide report), I am responsible for repairs. Only warning lamp I have received was for a "cylinder 1 misfire" that was diagnosed at Jeep of Fontana in CA, where I was told to take it elsewhere. Now, after having a tuneup last week, I started my Jeep on Sunday and it began smoking. Was told at local shop, Mountain View Tire in Rialto/Fontana, they cannot fix. Please assist! | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Sep 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | The screen is delaminating which impacts the following safety measures: SOS feature, use of cellphone for 911 emergencies, and navigation. The delimitation appeared a few months ago and has progressed. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Sep 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | The Uconnect System on the vehicle has a delamination issue on the screen. I took the vehicle to the authorized dealer and they said it was a known issue. I tried contacting the manufacturer and they offered a 60% cost assistance since the vehicle is out of warranty. I researched the issue on the internet and found multiple people have similar concerns with the Uconnect System. Some reported that the screen stops to respond to touch which means a driver can struggle to turn on/off heated or cooled seats, heated steering as there are no physical switches to operate those features, to name a few and can cause distraction while driving. If the seat heat is on and one wants to turn it off once the seat is warm enough, they cannot. My vehicle has delamination on the three sides of the screen. It started on the one corner and gradually spread to the other edges. I can see that one day it will cover the entire screen rendering the system to be unusable. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Sep 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | Vehicle will all suddenly while driving on the roads with speed, dash will blink and start saying to select the gear. At this point vehicle either has to be put in parking (while trying to figure out where to pull over) and reselect the gear, or completely shut off, re start and select gear in order to drive.

| Aug 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | I am filing a complaint regarding a serious and widespread defect in the Uconnect 8.4 infotainment system installed in my 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited and many other FCA/Stellantis vehicles. The screen has developed a delamination issue that worsens over time. Symptoms include glue dripping from the edges of the screen, “ghost taps” where the system responds without being touched, and unresponsive or inaccurate touch inputs. This is not a cosmetic defect. The infotainment system controls multiple functions beyond entertainment, including navigation, Bluetooth phone connectivity, climate control, backup camera, and access to vehicle settings. Malfunctions cause driver distraction and interfere with safe vehicle operation, which could easily lead to an accident. When I contacted Jeep/Chrysler Customer Care, I was informed this is a known issue. My research confirmed that FCA/Stellantis has issued an internal service bulletin acknowledging the defect, but they refuse to issue a formal recall. This appears to be a deliberate decision to avoid the significant cost of replacing defective units across multiple models, leaving many unsafe vehicles on the road. This problem is widespread and well-documented among owners. It is unacceptable that Stellantis treats it only as a service bulletin issue when the defect directly affects safety. Drivers must be able to rely on the infotainment system to respond correctly, especially since it integrates with systems used while driving. A delaminated screen dripping glue and producing ghost inputs is a hazard, not a minor inconvenience. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this defect and require FCA/Stellantis to take responsibility through a formal recall and replacement program to protect the safety of drivers, passengers, and the public. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Aug 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | The unit has been taken to Chrysler dealers in Puerto Rico three times. On each visit, we were charged $120.00 for a total of $360.00 for the computer scan. We were charged for an electrical module, part no. 68442478AB, worth $406.59. The situation has not been resolved. The vehicle has abnormalities in the braking system, which consequently affects other functions and even drains the batteries. I would like to sell the unit, but it is not resalable due to the unresolved recall. I need Chrysler to offer me options such as a refund or another unit without defects. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Aug 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | While my wife was driving her Jeep, everything seemed to fail. All the gauges were gone, no speedometer, no functions working. Every warning light came on. Display stated not to shut off the engine as it may not restart. She stated nothing worked in the vehicle, turn signals, brake lights may not have been working. And what if this happened at night? Would the headlights have worked? She drove the vehicle to our local Jeep dealer where they were unable to "get it in for a week". I had the vehicle towed to another dealer about 30 miles away. I provided them with the error codes the first dealer pulled and a picture of her dash display. They stated the error didn't occur for them, they drove it 13 miles and no errors were detected so they said they cannot troubleshoot it. It was a major can bus failure. If this had been at night I wonder if the light would have even worked. Extremely unsafe not knowing if any of the systems would have functioned. I was told to call the Customer support line. This is a rabbit hole. All calls go to India, they way they will call you back with in 24 hours... NOT TRUE. After days of trying to call, I finally got in touch with someone, they simply say we will call the dealer. I am out of pocket 1,000.00 for a rental car (even though we have max care which covers a loaner) and had to pay for the tow out of pocket. Stellantis is HORRIBLE no customer service at all, it turned into a mess! I am attaching the pictures of the errors and the dash display. Very poor response from the Jeep dealers. It seemed as if they didn't want to take the time to look or check out anything. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
