Weirdness with radio

[lithos2003]

Hi all!

I'm new to the Jeep community. I bought a 2020 Wrangler Unlimited Willy's edition with the 7" Uconnect system and Alpine speaker upgrade and I've noticed that while listening to music (epsecially on CarPlay) the screen flickers a decent amount. Most recently, the left side of the sound system cut out completely - I went into the EQ and moved the sound all the way to the left and all I could hear was the rumble of the subwoofer in the back. Turning the car off overnight seemed to fix the issue.. has anyone else had problems with the system like this? I'm worried that I'll take this month old car to the dealer and they'll say "well it's not happening now"

Had similar problem, took it to delearship and they updated the software and that fixed that problem.

however since then I’ve not been able to get my front facing camera to work, dealership had it for a day and couldn’t figure it out. Took it to my 4x4 shop no luck there either, going back to shop again next week....

I probably will be visiting the dealership I purchased the Jeep at - it's happened a couple more times since I posted this (one time it fixed itself after about 30 minutes of driving and me saying "it's not that bad, only hearing out of one side of the car").

My 2025 Wrangler is doing similar thing. Left driver speaker goes out. Doesn't do it on FM radio, just on my iphone 12 and my sister's iphone 16 pro. Dealership replaced speakers and it still does it, drove the tech in my Jeep and it happened to him too. They said it's a problem they have not encountered, tried to blame on my phone, but it does it on my sister's and my husband's too. We have T Mobile, my sis has ATT.
