My radio doesn’t turn on right away sometimes. It just started happening recently. I have the touch screen. It takes up to 5-10 mins to turn on after starting my truck. Just wondering if anyone else out there is having the same issue.

Thanks for any info

I have a similar issue plus Sirius keeps unsubscribing. I took it to the dealer 3 times now. This last time they kept it. 16 days and counting. They say radio needs replaced and it is on backorder. Seems they are holding my truck hostage.
Some days the radio will not come until I do a restart of the truck and some times it will come up in a few minutes.
Now the dealer has had the truck more days than me. I bought the truck in June 2018.
I do not know if this is a big problem and Panasonic is to blame or FCA.

Dealer finally replaced my radio now the Sirius seems to work but now the entire Sirius Guardian (Uconnect) does not work. Dealer stumped.

We're terribly sorry to hear this! Are you talking about your Uconnect system or Sirius XM Guardian? Send me a direct message expanding on this as I'd be glad to help.

These new radios by Oanasonic just aren’t as reliable at this point. My 2018 UAQ has some oddball quirks. There is a new update fir them though and from my perspective they need to really get it pushed out. Any of my radio quirks scream software issue.

I have the same issue with my radio. Turns on about 1 to 5 minutes after I turn it on. No backup camera or phone till it turns on. Let me know if y'all find a solution. Going to take it to Dodge this week and let them look at it. Unfortunately, it doesn't do it all the time so let's see what happens.
