All 2 Known Issues
On the 2023-2025 Jeep Avenger, the Jeep Avenger uses the Stellantis third-generation uConnect system with a 10.25-inch touchscreen. Owners report random reboots during driving, black screen freezes, and loss of navigation/audio that require a vehicle restart to resolve. The issue is software-related, particularly affecting early-production 2023 models. The infotainment system also occasionally loses Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity and fails to reconnect without a manual restart of the system.
Common Symptoms
- Touchscreen goes black during driving
- System reboots showing Jeep logo mid-drive
- Apple CarPlay or Android Auto disconnecting repeatedly
- Navigation freezing or showing incorrect location
- Audio cutting out and not recovering
- Backup camera not displaying when in reverse
How to Fix
Update the uConnect software to the latest version via USB download from the Stellantis update portal or at a dealer. Perform a soft reset by holding the power/volume knob for 10+ seconds. If issues persist after a software update, the dealer can reflash the head unit firmware. In rare cases, the head unit hardware (eMMC storage) may need replacement under warranty. Disable automatic software updates and install updates manually for better stability.

On the 2023-2025 Jeep Avenger, the electric Avenger uses a CCS2 (or Type 2 depending on market) charging port that experiences latch mechanism failures and communication errors with DC fast chargers. The charge port latch can fail to lock or unlock the connector, and the vehicle may reject charging sessions at public DC fast chargers with "Unable to Charge" messages while working fine on home AC Level 2 chargers. The issue is caused by charge port module firmware and latch actuator sensitivity.
Common Symptoms
- Unable to Charge error message on dashboard
- Charging connector stuck in port or refuses to lock
- DC fast charging session failing to initiate
- Charging starting then stopping within minutes
- Home Level 2 charging works but public chargers do not
How to Fix
Update the charge port control module firmware at the dealer. Clean the charge port contacts with electronic contact cleaner and inspect for bent or corroded pins. If the latch mechanism is sticking, lubricate the latch with silicone spray (not WD-40). For DC fast charging failures, try a different charger network — the Avenger has known compatibility issues with certain fast charger communication protocols that are resolved via software updates.
