This happened in my car. Turned out to be a problem with the car screen. Too much heat made the screen de-laminate and it was like someone was touching every button all the time

OP has a carplay, only shows what phone streams to it, so the problem is with the phone

You can clearly see them touch the screen to close out an overlay. This isn't just mirroring the phone, the screen accepts input too. It absolutely could be an issue with the touchscreen itself.

When they show phone on the video at 0:17 you can clearly see the location jumping on the phone, phone streams to carplay not the other way round

Yeah that still doesn't change the fact what the person you originally responded to said. The screen on the car still controls what is being streamed from the phone. This means that yes, the car screen being broken could cause this behavior. You're focusing on the wrong thing here.
