UConnect “accept” every time?

[NorthernArea51]

Does anyone else’s 8.4 UConnect ask you to “accept” their policies when you turn on the truck? It’s not every time but I’d say it’s well over half. I’ve had the truck since feb.

Mine doesn’t, I have the 8.4 no navigation if that makes a difference.

Mine asks every time, non-navigation

Mine asks every time. 8.4 with Nav. So it must be unique to Nav equipped. I thought all trucks did it for liability purposes..

Mine asks every time. I have the 8.4 w/o nav.

But who cares? You do not have to press the 'accept' button. It goes away after a couple seconds.

I stand corrected!

I just figured every time was a bit excessive and maybe something was off. Apparently not though.

Lawyers. I found out recently why sharks do not eat lawyers. Apparently it's because of professional courtesy

Oh I agree it's excessive. At least it's not like the screens in 'ye olden days' when they first started showing up in cars. They would absolutely not clear until you hit the 'agree' or allow you to interact with them at all when the vehicle was in motion. My wife's old Odyssey was like that. Such a pain in the ***.

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out. Yes, this is a normal feature of the Uconnect system.

Feature? WTF kind of feature could this annoying issue possibly be?

Not sure how effective it is since they don't make you accept in order for the system to operate.

It depends, if you turn off your radio, it will ask you the disclaimer when you power it back on. I don't turn off my radio before I turn off my truck, so when I turn my truck back on, the radio turns on and doesn't ask the disclaimer. I don't do that to avoid the disclaimer, though that is a plus, I'm just too lazy to turn off my radio before I shut off the truck.

Mine is an 8.4 with NAV.

Never turn mine off. Always asks.

Well that's interesting. I just double checked, mine just turns on if I don't turn off the power button before I shut off the truck. But if I turn it off, it will ask every time.

I wonder if that's based on an update, whether you have a newer update or do I?

Maybe. Or maybe the difference between nav/ no nav? Idk

Exactly this. It’s a distraction to one’s driving. You KNOW someone has ran into someone else because they were trying to clear their screen

...and then tried to sue a car manufacturer over it. *sigh*
