Pretty sure I already know the answer to this question.

Is it possible that my 2017 Journey doesn't have even a basic version of Uconnect that would allow a Bluetooth connection to a smartphone and/or MP3 player with B/T? I can't find anything in the menus on the center touch screen, although the display shows some sort of a warning or waiver that mentions Uconnect every time I start the engine.

There's no extra functioning buttons on the steering wheel above the i/p display menu and cruise control buttons. The radio seems to be a fairly basic unit with the smaller 4.3 display with no navigation system. And the user's manual describes making cell phone and music player connections but doesn't mention Uconnect as being an optional system.

 

Depends on the trim level. It was not standard on every model.

 

Yeah, I figured as much. Mine is a fairly basic SE model and the only major option seems to be 3rd row seating. Which I'd gladly trade for Uconnect or even a storage bin under the front passenger seat.
