    Uconnect 12 stop reading thumb drive

    My 2018 Limited with 12" Uconnect was reading the music on my thumb drive with no problem for over a year and now suddenly won't see any thumb drive I use. Just gives me an error reading drive. I have tried several different drives all formatted with exFAT. Nothing seems to work, however; it...

    New Truck - Several complaints. Help/Suggestions?

    I have a 2018 Limited with the 12" screen. I went through some of the same complaints until I discovered the numerous settings that you can change/control. My software was updated at least a dozen times which cleared up several issues, but mine was the first year for the 12" screen. My mirrors...

    Limited Occasionally won't come out of 1st gear

    I'll check the battery as it is three years old. That is kinda of a screwy problem that the transmission CPU would be affected like that.

    Limited Occasionally won't come out of 1st gear

    This only happens occasionally after starting and putting in drive. It will not shift out of 1st gear. I have to pull over and shift into neutral and then back into Drive. Dealer says they cannot diagnose the problem unless the problem is occurring at the time. They also claim that it is...

    Rubbing Feeling in Steering Wheel

    This problem has been going on since I have owned my 2019 Limited. I have had the dealer look at it several times, but say they could not replicate the problem and could not see any problem upon examination. It occurs mostly when turning right, but occasionally in left turns also. It appears...

    UConnect/CarPlay Problems

    I purchased my 2019 RAM Limited new with that Uconnect option. I had all kinds of weird problems associated with it, but take heart after several firmware/software upgrades everything works perfectly! The dealer will tell you that those are pushed via satellite como.. Maybe some are, but I...

    UConnect Worth It?

    Sounds familiar. I was set to retire in 2016 and promised myself a sweet retirement gift. I had always had small chevy and nissan pickups and yearned for a full size 4X4 cause we were retiring to the beach and I love surf fishing. My wife and I spent a great deal of time shopping trucks and it...

    Self Installed 2019 Software and Nav Upgrade

    I just received and successfully installed both the Uconnect Software Upgrade and the 2021 Nav Update. The instructions that come with the multiple USB thumb drives is very intimidating, but must be followed exactly as written!!! Below is a simplistic breakdown of what you need to do/know...

    Weird Brake Issue

    Just posted a thread with the same problem. I have a 2019 Limited and in traffic during a rain storm the red screen came on BRAKE and slammed on the brakes with no good reason to do so. By the grace of God no one hit me in the rear. It kept happening until I could pull over and turn truck...

    Sudden Unexplained Braking in Drive

    I have a 2019 RAM Limited with less than 25K miles. While I have experienced the hard braking backing up and have made adjustments that remedied that, the other day while moving in traffic during a heavy rain storm the truck inexplicably flashed a red screen warning BRAKE and slammed on my...

    Have Had it with Bizzare Behaviour of Uconnect

    I have a 6 month old RAM 1500 Limited loaded with all the options. From day 1 I have had different issues seemingly associated with the Uconnect (12" screen). The issues run the gamut from not disconnecting from phone calls to screen locking up and not allowing any inputs at all, which is a real...

    Sensitive parking sensors

    After reading other posts here regarding this issue, I thought I should weigh in. The post regarding being in drive and someone getting to close to your rear and the computer slamming on the brakes is concerning and has never happened to me. When the vehicle goes into D that feature is suppose...

    Strange Behavior at Car Wash

    Yes, I have experienced similar weird things when just washing truck using a hose. I think RAM has an issue with these mirrors. I had to have my drivers side replaced 2 wks after I purchased it for being loose. Ever since I started having issues with the backup look down image being blacked out...
