RADIO STATIC

Owner of 2022 Limited 10th Anniversary Edition, 5,7 Hemi E Torque, 12" Uconnect screen

Radio reception is not good....much worse than my 2013 Silverado and 2014 Lexus GX460.

Seems every time I use the brakes the static noticeably increases...any ideas?

Sounds like an issue with the eTorque. When you brake, it regenerates back to the battery.

Hmm sounds plausible,

You think this is a dealer fixable issue? Or just inherint in the 1500 E Torque?

Mine doesn't do it at all. I've never had a radio static issue. Could be something didn't get shielded properly.

I have basically the same truck and 0 problems on my end.

I would take it to the dealership.

There should be 0 static.

Had my 2020 in last week was having bad radio reception. They ran a check and came up with a short to ground on the antenna. They are ordering a new one. Satellite radio works fine still.
