Figures... So I just paid my truck off. Went to crank it the next day and all the lights come on, but she won't crank. So I pulled the battery and it was dated May of 2017. Took it down and got a new battery, brought it back, hooked it up, everything fine, truck cranks and drives fine. It even remembered all my settings, etc...
Everything's cool, except the damn UConnect is like it's demon possessed or something. It remembered my phone and the Android Auto, but when I try to map something it keeps changing the destination and remapping everything. When I change it to climate control, it keeps randomly changing from cold to heat to defrost, to low, high, etc... Matter of fact any screen you put it on it just starts randomly changing settings. Its dangerous as all hell, because you are trying to deal with all that while you are driving.
It's a damned shame, because I really love that truck, and other than that, everything else on the truck works perfect.
I've thought about just going to an audio store and swap all the radio stuff out, but that damned UConnect controls all kinds of stuff in the truck besides just the sound system.
I've never see or heard of anything like it. Not sure what to do at this point but to take it to a dealer and get ready to get screwed.
Anybody ever had this happen? What the hell did you do?
