After storing my 2018 Wrangler Sahara (13,400 miles) Jeep (trickle charge in Florida in my garage for the summer) the touch screen has constant and troubling ghost touches.....making most functions such as the radio and AC almost unusable. Any clues how to remediate

I had this day one when I picked up my 392, before Ieft the dealer. We disconnected the battery for 5 min or so, and reattached it, and it has never happened again in over a year.

Can also try pressing down the volume and tuner buttons at the same time for 10 to 20 seconds. This will reset your Uconnect system.

This is a known issue in the 2018s. Jeep will replace it under warranty if you happen to still be under one. I just went through this a few months ago. Mine had a physical defect on the screen and my dealer just looked at it, asked me if it was a 2018, then ordered a replacement.
