    Uconnect, 2014 LoneStar - voice recognition stopped working for text replies

    Over the last year, realized where I could respond with voice and send a custom text reply, now it will not allow this only allow canned responses. I'm assuming this is some 4G to 5G change or some other update. A) is this correct, anyone else have this issue? B) if so, has anyone found a work...

    Update made time off 2 hours and GPS lost...

    Thanks - this was exactly what I needed. Radio and GPS seem to be working again.

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    As far as I can tell, unless replacing the fluid was part of the service, nothing on the invoice indicates they did anything but change out the part. # 52014750AE HEATER-TRANSMISSION

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    I highly doubt they did more than replace the part, but again, I'll double check the invoice.

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    I'll pull the invoice and post. As a follow up. I've driven it with and without a small trailer, over an hour several times since getting it back. So far, trans temps have not even hit the 200F mark. There was definitely something wrong with the valve or whatever they replaced.

    Sure, the dealership is Waxahachie Dodge, at I35 and 287 in Waxahachie, Texas.

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    Update: They swapped out the valve in the transmission. It took nearly 2 weeks for them to diagnose, get information from Dodge Corp., get the part and get it installed. I have not driven it much since getting it back, but just driving to and from work and a couple short trips, in 100+ degrees...

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    I took it back to the dealer and they are replacing the valve that heats/cools the fluid. Not sure if it actually heats and cools or if it really just opens and closes the allow fluid to flow to the cooler.

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    So I was driving unloaded (nothing in bed, no trailer) around a neighborhood slowly Saturday and again, the transmission temp got up to 248. This just doesnt seem normal when the warning light is only 25 degrees away. If I had kept driving slowly around instead of finishing my task and getting...

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    Recent update. Dropped off truck to dealer - as usual - tech cant make it heat up like I can with no problem. They said there was a "flash" they updated the onboard computer to "help the engine talk to the transmission" - we'll see what happens. BTW - after the initial contact from "Jasmine"...

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    Doubtful. Just before the light came on, the transmission was whining while it was hot. After it got down below 240 or so, the whine went away.

    Jasmine - there is not a "direct message" option. There is a "start a conversation" option, which I did, but no way to PM you.

    Here are the readings from just driving home a little "spirited"

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    So except for the radiator, as far as I know, my truck does not have a separate transmission cooler. It does not have the towing package on it, although it has the "tow" setting on the dash and the 2" receiver hitch.

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    I'm pretty sure its the 8. It has the dial selector.

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    I guess I've never even paid attention to what the shutters do or how they function. I'm slowly learning more about all the systems this truck has to moderate/control temps.

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    So newbie - I have no idea what those are or how to check them.

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    Another interesting update. Yesterday, just city driving - empty, no trailer, but driving it semi - 'hard' - hard accelleration from stop signs, etc. I saw the transmission temp heat up to 248F (ambient temp was 85F). Oil and coolant were in the 200F range. Later that evening, maybe a couple...

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    My understanding is it is the 8 speed.

    Thank you, Jasmine. That would be great. Just let me know what information you need in order to expedite this.

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    I've only got 57K on the truck. Its my "spare" and "travel/hauling" vehicle. I am taking it to a local dealer to check Friday.

    Transmission overheated - possibly still running above normal?

    Hello, everyone! This is my first post here and I'm hoping to get some ideas. I'm pretty sure the answer will be to take it to the dealer, but I'm hoping to get at least some insight. I'm okay mechanically so I suspect I'll understand most of any responses. Sorry for the long post but here...
