ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Uconnect system/radio screen visually not working appropriately. Gets glitchy lines and will go black. Flip upside down. And blurr together. Screen will respond to touch even when not visually able to see anything. This will happen at random even when using back up cameras which is dangerous will go completely black when trying to use screen in any way. No damage to screen. Car is 2021 should not be having issues with screen already this is a safety hazard especially because using backup camera screen goes completely black.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The screen for the control panel is going out. I have researched online and at least 100 other people are having the same issue. This screen plays a big part in the safety features available on the vehicle. I believe that Jeep should look further into this issue. If it were one or two vehicles, yes, that's isolated. The fact remains s that is an issue that begins at the factory.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, STEERING
Driving my jeep to work and a bunch of warning lights come on - air bag, power steering, camera, front collision detection, abs system, parking brake, etc. I also lose power steering. Mechanic cannot find cause and all modules appear to be working - codes clear and return after about 30 miles of driving. Car isn't safe to drive and has been in the shop for 11 weeks with no answers. It is about to come back to sit in my driveway - and I will have to continue to make payments on a car that isn't drivable and may never be again. Since electrical issues seem to be prevalent with the vehicle - there should be a recall to protect driver safety.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The UConnect screen has not worked properly on the vehicle since September 2023. Initially the screen would be black or have lines through it when the temperature outside the vehicle was above 80 degrees and during daytime hours. Now the screen is black at all times. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. The screen is the only way to control numerous functions including the radio, climate control, backup camera, speaker settings throughout the vehicle, and basic vehicle settings such as time, etc. The problem has been reproduced and confirmed by the dealer as well as numerous other individuals who own the same vehicle make and model. Jeep states that the issue is not covered under the warranty, although the inability to use the features listed above poses a safety issue while operating the vehicle. There were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure.

On [XXX] my 2021 Jeep Renegade 4x4 VIN [XXX] was struck from the rear by another vehicle. My vehicle was stopped at a traffic light in Columbus, Ohio. My vehicles air bags did not deploy. The other vehicles air bags did deploy. The Sheriff Office did make mention of this during the traffic Report writing process. (REF: Traffic Accident Report #[XXX]: Franklin County Ohio Sheriff Office) . The driver, myself sustained injuries. Medical intervention was sought. Casualty Insurance Claim was filed. Vehicle repairs were performed. No warning lamps. messages or other symptoms occurred related to the air bags prior to or subsequent to this accident. Not until Owner, myself received the Safety Recall Notice 82B/NHTSA 24V-510 on 08/31/2024 was I made aware of any defect related to the motor vehicles safety, malfunctioning, or non-functioning. Given the event and the related non-deployment of the air bags, injuries sustained and which appears to be consistent with this Safety Recall Notice I would like this to go on record. The vehicle was taken to the Dealership for Safety Recall remedy/repairs. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I have an active recall on my 2021 Jeep Renegade. I have made numerous attempts to get this vehicle in since recall was made public. Every excuse under the sun from dealerships in the St. Louis area. From we don't do recall work on weekends, to we are only allowed to order so many parts, we have to put you on a waiting list. Or I am out of a car for hours possibly days? I called the corporate number to Stellantis and they actually hung up on me. I work lots of hours, I as a paying customer should be catered to. I need this repair done when its convenient for me as I have a job and work a crazy schedule
