The door paneling has warped on all 4 doors of the car. I purchased the car a year ago from a Lexus dealership here in Tucson I am concerned about safety of my airbags in the car doors
The vehicle's LCD screen has become delaminated which causes the control of the radio, air conditioning, navigation, and other features controlled by the "radio" portion of the car to become dysfunctional. The car will randomly beep, change air temperatures, start navigation, cause the loss of hands-free communication. This is a safety hazard as it causes the driver to be distracted in order to attend to the incessant beeping and issues related to AC/heat, navigation or radio (volume, etc.). This appears from Chrysler Forums to be an issue among a large group of Chrysler 300 Year Model 2018 owners.
My vehicle only has 29k miles on it and just failed safety inspection because the Rear Drive Shaft Bearing is broken.
Touch screen is malfunctioning EVERYTHING. My climate can't be controlled-- have the heat on in the morning for example then come out from work and it's 100 degrees and i can't change it so ride home with heat blowing in 100 degree heat. Back up camera not operating sometimes, its scrolling thru the contacts and calling people randomly. Stops GPS randomly. It's very distracting and dangerous!
The trunk keeps opening on its own and it happens even while driving sometimes. I had the car for a year now and it has happened sporadically approximately 10 times since I bought it. I had the key fob replaced and the wiring looked at and was told there should be a recall because the electrical wiring is exposed and gets wet with rain. Corrosion sets in and the wires need replaced. I looked up other complaints and this is common for 2018 Chrysler 300. Please help. This should be recalled. Its dangerous esp when driving. I came out to my car after parking one day and my trunk was open despite the car being locked.

Our Chrysler 300 (2018) has the delamination issue reported numerous times on the Chrysler forum. Our car only has 35,000 miles on it. The delamination issue is definitely a safety issue. The radio station keeps rapidly changing making it useless. The safety part of the issue is that the heat/cool also stops working in the car and switches rapidly from one to the other. The Nav option doesn't work because the screen keeps changing. We talked to a few different repair places and they said they have seen this numerous times with the Chrysler 300. Chrysler needs to fix this.
The vehicle's LCD screen has become delaminated which causes the control of the radio, air conditioning, navigation, and other features controlled by the "radio" portion of the car to become dysfunctional. The car will randomly beep, change air temperatures, start navigation, cause the loss of hands-free communication, dial random numbers over and over and over and I cannot stop it. The navigation is totally unreliable right now and selects random destinations, takes me into the ocean or to Africa, screen spins. This is a terrible distraction while trying to drive. This is a safety hazard as it causes the driver to be distracted in order to attend to the incessant beeping and issues related to AC/heat, navigation or radio (volume, etc.). I turn off the whole thing and unplug my phone, then it miraculously turns itself back on and automatically Bluetooth to my phone even though I have turned that portion of my phone off too. This appears from Chrysler Forums to be an issue among a large group of Chrysler 300 Year Model 2018 owners. I am encouraging them to file a concern with your group and to ask for a recall of the car for this reason. I currently am waiting (for 3 weeks) for the part to get the screen replaced through my dealership. It is scary to drive and unsafe. It randomly calls any number 10 times in a row and I am distracted trying to stop the call multiple times. I live in Phoenix AZ and when the A/C switches from cold to heater and turns on the seat heater I about pass out driving. It is too hot here to drive with no A/C and when the heater comes on I am trying frantically to turn off while driving. It is like the car has become possessed!!!

So my radio is delaminating. This is a major safety issue as it’s distracting for the driver. It will ghost tap in random locations causing gps not to work properly which can result in a crash. A/c gets turned on automatically and will turn the heat on full blast which could caused issues on a hot day such as heat stroke or something similar, this is also a big distraction while driving having to turn constantly turn the a/c back off, turn the radio back off, fix the gps, ect. This is a common problem on this veh as there are tons of forum posts about it. Please force Chrysler to put out a recall for this issue.

I was driving down interstate 95 N Richmond Va and i heard a loud pop scared me to dealth, My sunroof exploded leaving a large hole in the front sunroof. i called my insurance of course i had to pay a deductible.
The radio control screen that has all controls on it is failing it turns things like heat/ air off and on at random cannot bring up the vehicle info and setup turning the system off doesn’t help it. The front screen is bubbled. This is a safety hazard as it’s scrolling through items and you’ll reach to change it also the hands free will not work either therefore can be a hazard I was told by the dealer it will need replaced as nothing will work on it. The Uconnect doesn’t work either. If you set something in it such as air and direction, it will turn off and on and change where air is coming from the radio scans and goes to serrius radio ( I’m not subscribed) heated steering wheel comes on at random. Nothing works properly. It started with the backup camera not coming on all the time now it’s the computer / radio screen
