Hi guys,
I have a 2016 Ram with the uconnect with a 5-inch screen in it, otherwise I'm not sure of the version. The radio and backup camera functions fine but when I make a call or try to use the Bluetooth connection for audio, the system will reboot after almost exactly 90 seconds. If I don't use the Bluetooth media, it's fine but the second I do, the 90-second timer starts. Has anyone seen this before? How do I fix it?
Alternatively, I've been thinking of upgrading to the 8-inch display so maybe would be a good time to do it?

It's possible there is some kind of Bluetooth codec bug on your radio causing the problem. There may be a firmware update available to fix this. I went from a 5" to 8.4" and I've been very happy with it since 2015.

Have you found the answer to your issue yet? Mine (same radio) started doing the exact same thing today. :(
