Stellantis, the multinational automotive manufacturer and parent company of Jeep, Dodge, Chrysler, and Ram, has come under scrutiny following the introduction of full-screen pop-up advertisements on its in-vehicle infotainment systems. This feature, which has been met with widespread criticism, disrupts driver experience by displaying ads whenever the vehicle comes to a stop.

Stellantis, through its "JeepCares" representative, acknowledged the implementation of these ads, citing an agreement with SiriusXM. The company suggested that users simply dismiss the ads by tapping the provided close button. However, concerns remain regarding the forced nature of these interruptions and their frequency.
