UCONNECT problems
I am running into some flaky problems with UCONNECT. I checked and I have version 13.15.4. One time the display went blank. Another time the display froze. I could not mute the volume or do anything on the touch screen. The third time the system rebooted.
After I turn the ignition button off and then back on it operates normally. Is this something that I should take in to be checked out? It does not do it every time. It has happened 3 times in the last 400 miles. It is a new 2013 RAM 1500.

i bought a 2009 2 months ago and after i got it home for 3 days it would reboot and seize up, you couldn't use any buttons. i went to the dealer and he said they are a replacement ($600) but mine wasn't on warranty. it just started working normal 3 days later, so i would take yours in and get it replaced.

NMRam,
Sorry to hear about your Uconnect concerns. Intermittent conditions are frustrating for the owner as well as the serving dealer. I would recommend reviewing with your dealer. Since it is intermittent, if the dealer is unable to pull any codes after a diagnosis the next time the symptoms you described occur and can be assessed, bring the vehicle to your closest Dodge dealer.
If you have any questions or are seeking additional assistance, please PM me and I'd be happy to help.

Oh, it also helps if you can take video of what it's doing. Last time I had the radio replaced I talked with the service guy and I could tell he thought I might be exaggerating about the symptoms since they'd just replaced the radio 7 or 8 months before. I took a video with my phone the next time the radio acted up, showed it to the service guy, and his tune changed immediately.

There is a software upgrade for UCONNECT. You can do it or take it in. Here is the website which tells you if you qualify and gives instructions which must be followed to the letter. Also there's a good Y-Tube video on hos to do it. I did my own upgrade.
