2018 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE — Complaint #2156399
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL:INFOTAINMENT filed December 11, 2025
NHTSA complaint #2156399 (ODI reference 11704463) concerns a 2018 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE and was filed on December 11, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on December 11, 2021. The vehicle had 80,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Minnesota based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as equipment:electrical:infotainment, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE cohort independently describe similar equipment:electrical:infotainment failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2018 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
The contact owns a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that the infotainment screen was significantly delaminated, causing unintended screen activation, preventing the driver from activating some vehicle safety functions as needed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and advised the contact to purchase a new screen because the vehicle was out of warranty. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.
