Court: United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan

This is a putative class action against FCA US, LLC, d/b/a Stellantis North America (“Stellantis”), the manufacturer of Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram vehicles.  The plaintiffs (owners and lessors of the subject vehicles) allege that Stellantis failed to disclose that its vehicles contained defective “Uconnect 5” dashboard infotainment systems.  Among other things, the Uconnect 5 is plagued by malfunctioning navigation and audio systems, as well as inconsistent or failing Bluetooth connectivity. The defective Uconnect 5 technology can also prevent the operation of critical safety-related functions, such as the vehicle’s backup camera. Moreover, a dashboard system malfunctioning abruptly or unexpectedly can cause distractions for drivers, creating additional safety concerns.
