I would recommend talking with LG about a possible repair, but do remember that this is going to cost you a repair fee, as no doubt the phone is out of warranty by now.  Unless you have Verizon's extended warranty, and in that case, call Verizon from another phone for replacement or repair.

Oh my goodness! That can really put a black cloud on your day, mackdaddy59. Let’s work together and find a solution. When did this start happening? Did anything change on the phone around the time the issue started? Is there any physical or liquid damage on the device? Keep us posted.

This was a known issue a couple years ago.  Some had their digitizer replaced under warranty.  Also, make sure the screen is clean with no moisture, also that any screen protector is positioned correctly.  If using a case with a built in protector, this causes issues sometimes as well.  Do you have any other areas specifically that do not respond such as dragging the notification bar down or typing on the keyboard?

When dialing a number icons pop up and have to continually push backspace until number appears. Do not have screen protector. Would you recommend digitizer?

No to both. When dialing a phone number icons pop up at times

Having your screen not work as it should is cause for concern, mackdaddy59. Let's dig into this. When did this issue start happening? Had anything happened to the device (i.e. software update, phone dropped, etc.) around the time this started?

No phone suffered no damage. Now can't even text correctly. It appears there is a dead spot on phone. Took phone to Verizon and they suggest we apply to get another phone
