2017 RAM 1500 NIGHT EDITION. 23,481 miles.
"DEALERSHIP WANTS $200.00 TO UPDATE THE RADIO."
Not too trusting of the dealer...do they mean the radio or UConnect? They didn't seem too confident and a lot of "not sures".
Uconnect says I have two updates (iPhone car play and nav).
Dealer says they have 2 updates only they can do.
U Connect website says I have one update. Uconnect_VP4,18.45.01-My13-17
I was told we have 3 separate sub systems (U Connect, Maps, and GPS).
Dealer said to update the radio 1st, then U Connect then do the maps.
They are charging $200 for what they call a Radio update.
UConnect said that maps will be updated in July for the 2022 version.
The current NAV system won't even find my home that was built in 1960.
The version in the truck now is 18.45.01.
Version code should change if the dealer actually does the update successfully, correct?
Wi-Fi hot spot icon in the truck says" no active subscription.
Go to store to "renew".
UStore icon just sits and doesn't connect.
When you go to the Ustore through the settings it says, "service not available".
Any ideas?
I hate to spend $200.00 at the dealer when they are not doing any work.
What is my order of operation? (1) Radio update, then (2) UConnect update then (3) MAPS update?
Can I get the truck to be a wi-fi hotspot?
What subscription is this?
What turns on the 3G icon on the APP icon? or is this not ever available?
What will be the differences once I get all the upgrades done? I'm hoping the navigation will be somewhat useful. It's complete garbage in its current state. I figure I will do the MAPS upgrade when it comes out in July. Dealer and UConnect say I need the most recent versions to get the new Maps upgrade.
