    Live in Raleigh, NC. My wife bought the 2015 GC Summit Hemi at $58K new. Had it replaced 3 years ago when it wrinkled badly at 25K under warranty., cost $100 from Jeep Always garaged, and uses windshield shade. Noticed this spring, it has wrinkled much worse again? You would think they would have fixed the problem with all the problems and recalls for 2011-2014. Obviously, they have not done anything to fix the problem! 2015 forward still having the same issue and now today at Thanksgiving 2021, the wife has less than 40K on the vehicle, the car looks like new and the dash is trashed again! Guess they are hoping the person who bought it new would have traded it by now, so don't have to change their mfg proceeds! This type of quality is criminal especially when they recall the same problem on the same dash for 2011-2014, but not 2015 and up. Didn't see an answer from the guy who said he received a recall notice? I never saw one and have been to my jeep dealer twice only to be told to call Jeep customer satisfaction. Maybe they will do something??? Not!

    Had this problem 30 days after the warranty expired (2011 Jeep GC Overland) and jeep offered to pay for half if I paid for half. Our local dealer still tried to rip me off with a price jack-up to $2500 to repair (my half). To this day it still looks bad and I show it to everyone who is ever thinking of getting a jeep. We actually own 5 jeeps dating back to 1993 and this is the worse one.

They need to step up and put out the recall, my Infiniti FX35 had a dashboard recall for bubbling and it was no where near as bad as these look!

    My 2011 Grand Cherokee Overland qualified for the recall. It took 18 months for the new dash to arrive in mid-2021. A related dash issue with the GC is peeling/breaking dash trim that one would think is part of the new dash. But that is not the case. We now have a new leather dash with old, broken wood trim. Considering buying another GC? Search online and 75% of them have a wrinkled dash and/or broken trim. Horrible quality makes this my LAST Jeep.

The air suspension started to leak. It had stalling issues. It only had 60k miles on it and I got rid of the POS. I will never by a Chrysler product again!

    I had this issue; Jeep issued a "warranty extension" that I took advantage of and they replaced my dash at no cost. However, the replaced dash has done the same thing and is actually worse than before. So I guess they figured they'd replace the defective part with another defective part thinking I'd sell my Jeep or trade it in before it happens again. I wonder if they'll replace it again.

    Never saw the special issue. Have been back to dealer twice brow beating them. only to be told to call customer service, they may do something? NOT!!! I'm on the second dash doing the same exact thing! Had one replaced under warranty on a 2015 GC Summit at 25K miles in 2018? The exact same thing started this spring and is now worse than the first, 3 years later at under 40K miles. It is driven very little by my wife, parked in a garage and a sunshade is used when parked outside! Obviously, Jeep hopes that this piece of fine craftmanship??? is traded by the first owner before the dash fails!

    Well, its 2020 and finally this is being addressed by Jeep. If you haven't received a letter from Jeep then contact your dealer. You will be asked to bring your vehicle into the dealership so pictures of dash can be taken and sent to Jeep for review. Takes about 3 months for Jeep to review photos and send an authorization to your dealer to have it fixed free of charge. Jeep dropped the ball on this one. This is their premier Jeep product that they brag about on television. This Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland is the one with the leather cover dash and it costs from $42,000 to $45,000 for this car (new). Yet it took Jeep leadership 5 -6 years to make this right to Jeep customers? I've had three top of the line Jeep Grand Cherokees but this is my last. Thanks for nothing Jeep!
