The forward screen which displays the backup camera has failed. It sound it’s like it is a common issue but unfortunately changing just the screen is unavailable so the entire unit must be changed for over $1000.
The U connect system screen does not work , goes in and out and is scrambled . I am unable to use back up camera
The Uconnect screen is glitching in and out and only 2/3 of the screen is appearing. Going into the dealer tomorrow.
UNKNOWN- When phone is connected to car and navigation is used the screen in car freezes, lags and turns the radio off and on. It happens too many times to keep count as I drive for a living. I took my jeep into the dealership to address the problem and get it fixed. The dealership told me they are aware of the problem. They had already tried to fix the problem on several jeeps, and they were brought back with the same complaint. They weren't going to waste their time or money trying to fix the problem on any of the jeeps until they knew exactly what the problem was and how to fix it. I was told they couldn't do anything for me. That when the problem is occurring, I should get a video of it happening and bring it to them so they can try to figure out what the problem is. The problem is I'm driving when the problem occurs, so I can't safely record it happening.
Three times this month while driving my jeep the car stalls and a bunch of warning lights comes on. It’s always in the middle of traffic and can be a hazard while driving
I WAS PARK AT A PUBLIC PARKING SPOT(POST OFFICE) WAITING FOR MY FRIEND, THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING. WHEN MY FRIEND GOT TO MY CAR, I PRESS THE BRAKE TO PUT THE CAR IN REVERSED. IT REVERSED ABOUT 3 FEET AND SUDDENLY STOP. I WENT AND PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND SWITCH IT TO DRIVE AND IT WONT GO FORWARD EITHER . MY FRIEND GOT OUT AND CHECK FRONT AND BACK TO SEE IF SOMETHING WAS BLOCKING THE TIRES FROM MOVING FORWARD OR REVERSE. THERE WAS NOTHING. I DECIDED TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AGAIN. THE EBRAKE BUTTON LIGHTS WAS NOT ON NOR ANY INDICATOR IN THE DASHBOARD. BUT ONCE I PRESSED THE BUTTON. IT RELEASED THE CAR AND WAS ABLE TO MOVED AGAIN. ALSO MY CAR SHOWED A WARNING SIGN TWICE IN THE DASHBOARD SAYING "PARKING BRAKES NEED SERVICE" BUT I TRIED TO CONTACT MY DEALER 2 CONSECUTIVE DAYS AND WONT ANSWER OR RETURN MY CALL BACK. AND MY CAR WHISTLES STARTING AT 40MPH HIGHWAY OR CITY STREET.
