DESCRIPTION
Some vehicles may exhibit the following symptoms:
• Center display touchscreen operates by itself (Ghost Touch). This is due to high-temperature and humidity, the
touch panel sensor causes a chemical reaction, which causes the touch sensors to corrode, resulting in the
screen scrolling without operations.
• The film of the center display may be peeled off. This is due to insufficient adhesive thickness, the layers in the
touch panel deteriorate over time, resulting in peeling off of the film surface (As a result, DTC B108E:04 may be
stored).
• Ghost Touch
• DTC B108E:04 may be stored
(Touch screen operates by itself)
• Surface Peeling
• DTC B108E:04 may be stored
Customers having this concern should have their vehicle repaired using the following repair procedure.
