So my new radio was installed today. I haven’t checked everything yet but so far so good. Hopefully no more issues . If I run into anything else I’ll be sure to post.
What version of UConnect software do you have? Wondering if an update is bad or the before delivery set up was incorrectly performed.
I believe is was just the module behind the screen but I’m not sure. The reason I say this is because of the amount of fingerprints on the screen. It looks about the same as It was before they fixed it. They told me “new radio” so whatever that means.I just set up an appointment for Tuesday 6/16 for mine to be installed. Been waiting a long time. Good to hear everyone say "So far, so good".
Hey @Br549, does it look like they replaced the whole unit, or just the module behind the screen?
Quick Update:
I worked through RamCares via messaging on here and they opened a case. A very nice individual with Uconnect Case Management was assigned it and called me today. She's going to reach out to my local dealership and have Uconnect's engineers work with them to hopefully get it fixed. When I mentioned there are others on this forum having the issue, she said to make sure you report this to RamCares or Uconnect Case Management, so they are aware that you are impacted. Dealerships are supposed to work with them on this.

Sorry to hear. Imbeciles...Update: Arrived at the dealership to be greeted with a "Didn't you get my message? The radio they sent will not work, and have to send another one."
Not happy at all. Been over a month. Took the day off for this.
On the brighter side, the wife and I went out for breakfast. Sit down, inside, which isn't happening around here too much because people are still scared.
I call BS, I wouldn't be surprised if there is more to the story. Since when do service writers know ahead of time that the part ordered was incorrect. It's usually the tech when he goes to pull the part in my experience. Which they usually don't do until truck is in shop. More like part was never ordered/didn't come in yet or FCA denied claim after they approved. Always chance it is what they say but I have grown to distrust most dealers and what they say. I went through similar run around with my dealer and getting my radio replaced and caught them in some half truths. Good luck and hope they get you straightened out soon.Update: Arrived at the dealership to be greeted with a "Didn't you get my message?

That stinks taking the whole day off and still waiting. At least you got to enjoy some time with the wife at breakfast.Update: Arrived at the dealership to be greeted with a "Didn't you get my message? The radio they sent will not work, and have to send another one."

The guy told me when they checked the part, it was not programed to my VIN for the features my truck has, and doesn't have. The same reason they can't just pull one from the lot. He said they have an elevated rush on getting the right one coming.I call BS, I wouldn't be surprised if there is more to the story.

I checked my phone right away. I had a missed call from a number I didn't know. He said that's the number. No message was left though. So he may have called, but BS-ing about leaving a message.Wait....was there actually a message that you didn't see/check or is the dealership BS-ing?? If they did and you missed it then it's on you but if they lied and there's no record of it I'd be raising hell about having to take time off (and, apparently have to do it again when the next radio comes in) and demand some kind of satisfaction.
I have a screen protector on my 12". If they replace the whole thing, they owe me a screen protector also. Not sure yet if they replace just the module, or the whole thing.Well I finally got my Rebel in for the UPDATED OS on the 12" screen that had my entire Sirius XM missing after update. They tried doing a frim cable update and wouldn't take. They just ordered me a NEW radio?? What does this require replacing the entire screen or just the hardware behind the screen?? Not impressed. Will wait for it to come in about 5 days the dealer says.
