Mpgrimm2-I drove the truck today and honestly didn't notice anything new or different. Wasn't really playing around looking but can post if I notice something.

For those that have received the OTA update, can you confirm the version number is 17.11.07. Also, let us know what firmware version you were on when you received the update, what model radio you have (A or AN) and what your truck model year is. I'm wondering if you have to be on the latest firmware from the Uconnect site before you will receive the OTA update...

So Example..

Truck Model Year: 2015
Radio Model: AN
Upgraded from existing firmware version: 16.16.13
New OTA Version Number: 17.11.07

Thanks!

Maybe this new update will fix issues with bluetooth. About a week ago my bluetooth started acting all weird in my truck. It's been really slow for me. Showing different songs than what's actually playing, taking 5-10 seconds to switch songs, occasionally not showing any music information (and only showing my phone name) etc. Been real annoying. Anyone else having trouble with bluetooth?

Hi Bent,

We're sorry to hear you're having such a tough time with your Bluetooth. If you'd like, I can send this over to our Uconnect for some additional troubleshooting. Send me your VIN within a direct message if this is of interest.

Hey thanks for the help, I have actually decided to start using the usb/SD slots for music. Much better user interface in my opinion.

Anybody know if the update would fix this issue:
Installed factory cd player. dealer entered the code and everything was fine.
Then out of the blue it quit displaying song titles and artist info when the disc is playing.
Still plays fine.
Still gives an accurate count of how many songs are on the disc.
Just quit displaying titles.
