Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The uconnect unit quit working therefore no way to adjust radio, heat, use, bluetooth, backup camera stays on when driving frontwards down road, etc. Cannot use regular knobs to adjust. Have now been waiting almost 2 weeks for a new radio to see if that fixes the problem. Also thumping noise in the right front in when making a turn & going over a bump at same time. Buying a brand new vehicle you should not have to worry about problems like this after owning it for less than 6 months.”
