Touch screen delaminating: 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. This has also caused, twice now, the touch screen/I connect system to attempt dialing 911/assist emergency services without me touching the screen. This is scary. 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.), and attempt to connect with emergency services. 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 due to the uconnect system/screen delaminating.

Front driver has lifted. Took the car in to have it repaired and they have no resolution. On 9/12/2022 I attempted to exit my vehicle and the panel had lifted such that the door would not open. The only way to exit my car was to climb over the center console to exit the vehicle. Only way to get door open after was to continue to pull up on the panel so I could place the locking mechanism in it's proper place. This could have been a severe safety hazard.
My vehicle has a backup camera and also controls different functions of my vehicle the screen will completely blank or when I put into reverse the screen will show a distorted view on the screen or I will get bold colored lines on the screen with distorted views. I took a picture of the screen and took it to a Chrysler dealership while my vehicle was still under warranty the service advisor told me that he had never seen that before and they would have to keep my vehicle and see if it did it when they had it.I told him that I never know when it will do it .

Screen separation, causing malfunction in cars performance and safety.
Laminate is melting on uconnect interface for control panel for climate control, navigation, defrost/defog, and radio. It's an anecdotal problem for many Chrysler/Dodge owners when scanning internet forums. Chrysler/Dodge has been unhelpful in rectifying the situation. This defect causes "phantom" screen touches which causes the navigation system to skip around to different destinations while in use causing the potential for an accident as the driver suddenly must change course when listening to verbal prompts. Further, the "phantom" screen touches causes the climate control to randomly shoot up to blast hot air in the driver's face while driving. Also, defrost/defog cannot be set and relied upon because "phantom" screen touches turn them off at random causing a driving hazard.
While driving the touchscreen would randomly switch from one source to another creating a major distraction. The GPS malfunctions and would give bad turn information. I'm visiting the dealership to see the issue so it can be safe to drive again.

The contact owns a 2018 Chrysler 300. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, she noticed that the Navigation System had become inoperable. Additionally, the radio would operate independently and also calls were made without driver input. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the contact was informed that the vehicle was not under recall for the failure. The contact was informed that the vehicle would be repaired out-of-pocket. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, and a complaint was filed and the contact was referred to the NHTSA for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000.
I started having problems with acceleration, I would go to pull out and the car would choke. When I put my car in reverse I would get an error message telling me to put my car in park and then desired gear. When I did that it would not go into reverse, I would have to shut my car off and then restart it. At time the check engine light would come on and then go off. I attempted to have it checked multiple times but when I got to the dealership it would be off again. I finally was able to get it to the dealer while it was on and was told I needed a new transmission and I would need to bring it in for a full diagnosis. I got it to a transmission shop shop and had the transmission replaced. When he ordered the transmission and installed it the transmission module was bad. I really feel due to the fact that a brand new transmission had a defective transmission module that the issue is that the model transmission in that car is defective.

The contact owns a 2018 Chrysler 300. The contact stated that the interior door panels on all four doors were unsecured and separated from the door frame. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The contact was concerned that during a collision the door panels might eject from the door frame and cause a safety hazard for occupants in the vehicle. The local dealer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 38,000.
the touchscreen radio is malfunctioning cant keep your eyes on the road due to radio turning stations, randomly calls numbers on your phone and rotates turning the heat and air conditioner on non stop! Chrysler admits its an issue but because its a 2018/22,000 miles, they won't fix it without charging over $1000 Symptoms 1st appeared in Spring 2022
The Large Control Screen appears to have "delaminated". At first it only affected radio controls causing loss of function and random acts. It eventually progressed to fail other functions controlled by this unit including seat and communications functions which caused the unit to intermittently adjust seat and more seriously call emergency numbers randomly. The random adjustments significantly affected the driving safety of this vehicle and impacted local emergency call centers with calls. The dealer confirmed the malfunction and was unable to repair the unit. The failures were intermittent and so there was no warning when changes happened.
Back up camera problem screen either turns blue or is scrambled. This has been going on off and on for the past year sometimes it happens immediately upon putting car in reverse and other times whine in the middle of backing up. The car is with the dealer now Also door panels are separating from the front doors I have heard this is a common problem with these cars and I'm not sure if it could affect side door airbags.
The console monitor, which is part of the UConnect system, is experiencing a delamination of the screen. It started a few months ago at which time the problem was mainly cosmetic. The screen can be seen peeling away in the upper area. For the past few weeks parts of the screen along the peeling line activates, as if someone was touching the screen. This happens sporadically, but is increasing in frequency. It has become extremely distracting while driving, as it suddenly changes audio inputs and channels. In navigation mode, it changes locations on the screen or tries to cancel my navigation.
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, make random phone calls, cause the loss of hands-free communication and turn on heated seats. The functionality of the backup camera is also dependent on this screen. 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, telephone or radio (volume, random channel changing, etc.). This appears from Chrysler Forums to be an issue among a large group of Chrysler 300 Year Model 2018 owners. Chrysler will not replace just the screen. The only option given is replacement of the entire radio which costs $1200.
The screen is bubbling or delaminating on the radio/head unit. It will randomly select or unselect any item on the screen. Sometimes when using the backup camera it is very hard to see. Sometimes it does not disengage from the backup screen, you will have to shut car off and restart when that occurs. This has been going on for about 1 year.

My 2018 Chrysler 300 radio/infotainment/U connect system fails at the most inconvenient times. The screen will go black when backing causing the back-up camera to become inoperative, the system will drop phone calls, switch between radio stations, navigation will become inoperative. This has created some safety problems, especially when backing and using the navigation functions. It has also prevented me from using the hands free function when making and receiving phone calls. The touch screen started delaminating in November of 2021 and is progressively getting worse. Chrysler really needs to fix this problem before someone is injured.
Just recently purchased this used vehicle in August and the car has shut off a few times while driving. This is a safety issue. The check engine light does not come on at all.
The contact owns 2018 Chrysler 300. The contact stated that the inside door panel detached from the door frame. Additionally, the defroster failed to defrost the windshield. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer where it was diagnosed that the door panel needed to be replaced. The defroster was working as designed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the dealer. The approximate failure mileage was 57,300.
While I was driving the Uconnect infotainment system started touch inputting on the whole screen. It started changing the AC, the seat warmers, clock settings, phone, and just everything on the screen. I was very worried that something might happen since my little one was with me. I took it to the dealer. This seems very dangerous and I was shocked to find so many people online with the same problem and no recall on it. Screen seems like it has a bubble.
The contact owns a 2018 Chrysler 300. The contact stated that he had observed a discoloration on the back-up screen in the center of the screen. The contact stated that the screen appeared to be separating into layers from the inside. The contact stated that when he placed the vehicle in reverse(R) the back-up camera was distorted. The contact stated that the image was pixilated and moved up to the top of the screen. The contact stated that there was no image from the rear of the vehicle. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a local dealer or independent mechanic. The vehicle was not diagnosed and was not repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.
My door panels are peeling away from the area where the trim and window meet on my driver side and passenger. This is also causing problems with my door locking and it may also affect airbag deployment. I feel that there needs to be a recall on these door panels, and they need to be installed properly.
The audio system screen has become delaminated. This causes buttons to be selected at random by the unit. Climate control constantly changes. When in the phone mode, it will hang up current call and call other contacts listed on the attached phone. The radio switches stations and audio functions at random. Cannot use the GPS unit because it will change to previously used addresses.
Noticed water damage on rear driver side pillar had mechanic look found water comming in from sunroof track. the drain hose was still attached and unclogged water began to leak behind the rear grab handle and light. This seems to be a defect by manufacturer and have seen alot of the same complaints.i was worried the water could cause a short maybe fir behind headliner.
