I have a 2026 1500 Laramie and have been having issues with getting the system to get text messages correct. Whether I'm sending a new text or responding to one while I'm driving its translating everything into something totally different than what I've said. I'm not talking about language... actual English words.

I have talked to Ram Connect, to Ram and a local service dealer and nobody has an answer. According to Ram, my software is up to date.

Curious if anyone else has had this issue on their 2026 truck.

I have my Iphone connected so it will use Siri and at times has it own mind, also don't talk to fast as the microphones in theses trucks are not the best...

I had to set mine to southern accent mode.
Kidding…I use Siri and it works perfectly 95% of the time

I doesn’t work for me…… Siri does.
Accent?
ONLY thing works is “ HEY RAM……..set…….cabin………..temp….re…..ture…….to…….69…..degrees!

Time I’ve done all that, easier to do it myself.

HOW…do you speak “69” ??

Sixty-nine ?? or Six Nine ??

(the first example sometimes displays as 609…. while the second example sometimes fails to fall within capable temperature ranges)

That can be pretty frustrating. In lieu of contacting Ram Connect, were you advise to perform any resets of your Uconnect system or phone?
