The factory-installed 8.4-inch Uconnect touchscreen/display in my 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee is delaminating internally causing bubbling under the screen surface. The layers of the touchscreen are separating even though the screen has not been physically damaged. The Uconnect system and vehicle are available for inspection upon request. The delamination affects the touchscreen used to operate and display multiple vehicle functions. As the screen deteriorates, it can become difficult to read or operate and may result in unintended or “ghost” touchscreen inputs. This can create a driver distraction while the vehicle is moving and may interfere with the driver’s ability to reliably use information and functions displayed through the Uconnect system, including the rear-view camera display when backing up. The condition appears to be progressive and raises concern that the display could become increasingly unreliable. Yes. The vehicle was presented to an authorized Jeep dealership, and the delamination of the factory Uconnect touchscreen was confirmed. The dealership also attempted to determine whether Stellantis would provide repair cost assistance, but advised that its system would not allow a goodwill request because of the vehicle's expired warrenty. The car is only 6 years old and has less than 60,000 miles. Stellantis refuses to provide any assistance. Jeep dealership states it is a $1500 repair. The vehicle and Uconnect screen have been inspected by an authorized Jeep dealership. The vehicle has not been inspected directly by Stellantis, police, or an insurance representative. There were no warning lamps or vehicle warning messages before the screen began delaminating. The first noticeable symptom was visible separation/bubbling within the touchscreen display. The condition has progressively worsened. There was no impact, physical damage, or other event that caused the screen to separate. Symptoms first appeared in August 2026.
