Agreed @AlexJeepVB . Insane that the time drifts so much. Again. the tech in this radio sucks. Don't think there will ever be an update for that particular fault.

Agree with @BombusHuntii . The TSB works. I have been one of the loudest complainers about this issue. Including the fact that the dealers act like you are the crazy one when you tell them that many people are having this issue. After escalating my case all the way up the ladder with FCA, they...

Dude! This is awesome. I've been following your build and blog so happy to see that you're doing the upgrades I wanna do.

Unfortunately, nothing. They are working with Jeep/FCA/Uconnect and no one seems to be able to provide a solution to this problem. They've replaced the radio, replaced the media hub (where the usb and aux connect) and yet problem is still there. Reboots everytime I plug my phone in. Frustrating...

Thank you @Kyanche . This is valuable information in my effort to get this fixed!

Thanks for the post @zeak . Yes, I've had the dealer fully replace my 5". The fix lasted for about 30 days. No problems with rebooting at all. Then, right around 30 days, the problem reappeared and it started doing it all over again. Hopefully you won't have the same experience and the fix...

Unfortunately, the reports from most/if not all people that are having problems with the 5" is that the dealer and Jeep are flat out refusing to upgrade that radio because they say its not compatible with your model. The company line is basically, "you get what the Jeep came with from the...

Yes, exact same thing going on @Ice15 bluetooth of course works fine, just takes forever to connect. For me its the principle of the damn thing working like its supposed to. This 5" Uconnect is by far the worst radio I've ever experienced in terms of functionality. I hear you about taking it...

Hi @DavidG did you ever find a fix for this issue? I'm dealing with the exact same and Dealer/Jeep/Uconnect can't seem to figure it out.

So glad you were able to resolve the issue @BombusHuntii . I've had the same issue and have been back to the dealership 5 different times to try and get this issue resolved. They went all the way to completely replacing my 5" uconnect with a brand new unit (assuming that it had the latest...

Update on my situation. Jeep/Uconnect/FCA latest fix "idea" is to replace the media hub, the module that contains the usb ports and 1/8 input. Surprise, surprise... within 30 minutes after driving out of service bay and plugging in my phone via USB, 5" unit starts to reboot every 30 seconds...

Unfortunately the Alpine isn't compatible with the 2 door Sport. This whole JL radio situation sucks!

@LanceM seriously, thanks for pushing @JeepCares on this issue. I've complained about it in other threads and haven't had the time to pursue it in the ruthless way that you have! The 5" is seriously a piece of junk, you see it ALL over this board. The fact that Jeep hasn't given us a path to...

Changing dealer won't matter, this goes all the way up to the manufacturer. There is no firmware update that will fix this to my knowledge. Why its been more than a year and still no fix for this is insane. Re: connnecting via bluetooth @Buzzard67 , yes you can absolutely do that and it will...

@Skot JL this is ABSOLUTELY as iOS12 issue, and unfortunately still is. Did you ever figure anything out on your end?

Sad that I have to say this, but this is STILL happening more than a year later. My 5" still reboots after replacement with new one. What did you ever find as a solution @jhnnymac ?

UPDATE: So they replaced my unit with a new one at the end of May Same crappy functionality as the old 5" but at AT LEAST it didn't re-boot every 30 seconds after I plugged my iphone in via USB like the old one. Until yesterday... yup. Same problem. iphone plugged in via USB now (once...

The sad, sad, sad thing is that here we are, over a year later and this is STILL true. Can't believe Jeep put such a CRAPPY radio in a great vehicle. What did you end up doing @raqball and are you happy with it?

Looks amazing. Well done!

Oh no, sorry to hear about the tornado. Hope everyone is ok :whew:. Dealer and FCA continue to stonewall me on getting the upgrade through Mopar :no: I will continue to look into the upgrade from infotainment and let you know if I pull the trigger and have success.
