ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
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.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
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.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
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.

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!

STRUCTURE:BODY, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
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.
