Yes, why?
No, why?
Originally, it was anticipated that SXM Guardian was going to support Uconnect Access for the Wrangler with the 8.4 infotainment system...I even recall someone posted a scan of a letter from FCA confirming this. That letter from FCA is the reason I upgraded to the 8.4.
SXM Guardian through Uconnect Access links to the Alexa app, which would broaden available info such as amount of fuel in the tank, % remaining on oil change, etc. via voice control, as well as the door locks, remote start, as well as inclusion in automation routines (so for example, one could have the Jeep remote start automatically 10 minutes before departure for work). I would pay for SXM Guardian for this capability, even as slow as SXM Guardian/Uconnect execute.
Unfortunately, FCA has backed out on this and won't be supporting the Wrangler, per my understanding (if someone has heard differently, please post a correction!). I inquired, both through a survey and through customer service, and FCA confirmed it would not be offered for Wrangler (but they wouldn't refund my money for the upgraded infotainment system--of course, I knew they wouldn't, but hey, I certainly had nothing to lose asking for it).
