I’m the wrong guy to answer this, but my guess is that there is overheat protection on the USB circuitry. Same as in a computer or even your phone. Disables itself if it senses that it is too hot.

Well then I would guess at a loose connection somewhere, if it works intermittently. I’ve seen reports of the USB ports not working temporarily after baking in the hot sun too.

Stupid question. Did you check the fuse in your internal power distribution center? Fuse F43, I think.

The design was changed somewhere in the 2022 model year, as far as I can tell. Lots of 2019-2021 models have the issue, and a few 2022’s here and there. But practically none after that. I have a 2022, and not a problem.

Do some research on "back door Roth IRA".

This is bordering on sacrilege. When did it become ok to start comparing a narcissistic jacka$$ to Jesus Christ?

The EcoDiesel was discontinued in early MY 2023, if I recall correctly. Can’t speak for your engine, as I have no experience with the 3.6L V6 Pentastar (or the 5.7L V8 Hemi for that matter).

Ok, that’s good. So you’re looking at an available tongue load of 1450 lbs. If you add a weight distribution hitch, that is 100% on the tongue. But even after deducting the weight of that, you could pretty easily haul the trailer you’re talking about…even with the trailer at fully loaded...

Forget anything you found online about max towing. The determining factor won't be pulling capacity, it will be payload. Look at the sticker on your driver's side door jamb. It will list your maximum payload. This is for a fully-fueled truck, but no occupants or cargo. Now, from the value...

Does yours look like this now lol? This is what I predicted 3 years ago, just wondering if I've reached "fortune teller" status...

As an engineer, I can’t let a math mistake slide. Gas weighs about 6 lbs/gallon (at least that’s what we use for weight calculations in private aviation). So a 33 gallon tank is more like 198 lbs of fuel, plus the tank. Now if you’re a hefty fellow, and you’re single (or have a very small wife...

Just heard about this on the news. Something about Stellantis misleading investors. https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2024/08/16/2931716/0/en/Stockholder-Alert-Robbins-LLP-Informs-Stellantis-N-V-Stockholders-of-the-Class-Action-Filed-Against-STLA.html

Then they’ll just cut the wires. Achieves the same purpose. And causes more damage.

My bad. Yes, I meant power folding, not auto-folding.

Does your build sheet list them as manual or auto folding? During Covid, there were a lot of substitutions with mirrors. In most cases, the trim package changed names from “level 2” to “level B” (which signified deletion of the auto folding mirrors). But occasionally there were trucks built with...

I’ll be honest- I don’t remember the actual price. I paid cash, and it was a lot. IGLA alone was a standard set price of $1200, but I forget what it was with Compustar added on. I didn’t opt for the drone add-on (that also requires a subscription). Maybe Josh (@Air’d outSRT) can weigh in here.

Not sure. I have Compustar as well, and use that for remote start. Maybe @Air’d outSRT can answer that.

Tazer over-writes the eeprom a million times with these “anti-theft” features, and that can ultimately end badly. At least, that’s how I interpret what I’ve seen and heard on the failures. If you want rock-solid anti-theft without a bunch of hassle, bite the bullet and have IGLA installed. Then...

I have deleted a couple of posts where people posted email addresses for FCA employees without their consent. And I will delete them here as well if anyone posts it. For anyone reading this, if you have it and want to share with him privately, then that's fine. But do not post it publicly for...
