  1. Hi. Has anyone replaced the HFM using their maximum care warranty? When I read the policy, it's significantly vague to me. I had a situation where my phone would not connect via Bluetooth. I did a battery "reset". That seems to have restored functionality for the time being. Just wondering if it's worth a 2 hour drive to the nearest dodge service center if it stops working again. Peace.
  2. Not sure if this is a common issue. Seems to work ok outside Albuquerque, but sirius constantly cuts out in the city. I'm beginning to wonder if the satellite module is failing. Albuquerque probably has some amount of interference, but I don't remember it being like this in Albuquerque in the past. Peace.
  3. Welcome... I still really enjoy my 2011. 88,000+ miles. I had to replace the transmission, but that was covered by my lifetime warranty. For the most part, it still drives like the day I brought it home. Still gets 25mpg at high elevation with a speed limit of 75mph. Taking it on a road trip tomorrow. Had to choose between my 2011 DJ or my 2019 Tacoma. No contest, the Tacoma barely gets 21mpg on the highways here! Enjoy. Peace.
  4. Not sure what the OP is trying to say, but he picks cars based upon forum congeniality?!? Obviously the OP has no idea what he is talking about. I direct anyone who wants to see real jackassery to Tacoma World. Douchey... Maybe the OP should sell his DJ and buy a used Buick LaSabre. I'm sure the grammies and grampies there would be great forum company. He could also join their bridge group... Peace.
  5. Seems like someone abused that car and then managed to dump it on you. My DJ has had a few probs, transmission and the left side head issue, but it still runs like the day I brought it home. Still makes 25 mpg on the highway. Mine has been a good car. Peace.
  6. The car can be fixed, but this sounds like a really dishonest deal. Wouldn't be surprised to find out the seller knew that the car was on the outs. Try to cancel the sale. Good luck. Peace.
  7. Welcome. Uconnect isn't great, but its adequate. Peace.
  8. Ok. Figured... That's why I included the word "exactly" and described my DJ's behavior. This filling issue is one that I've learned to live with. Peace.
  9. Not sure why you posted this, exactly. My DJ will often stop short of full by about a gallon. The fuel gauge on my DJ is not affected in my experience. If I really want a full tank, I just fill the last gallon with very slow flow from the pump. Usually I just leave it at the shutoff point and keep moving. Minor problem that doesn't really bother me... Peace.
  10. Took the DJ to the dealer. They couldn't determine if the BCM or door module was responsible for the dysfunction. They replaced both under my MaxCare warranty. Cost me a Benjamin, but it's fixed. I hate having problems, but that warranty is really great. Peace.
  11. This is still continuing with my DJ locks. I suspect it has something to do with the BCM or similar. Taking it to the dodge service center today. I'll update the forum... Peace.
  12. My understanding is that those vehicle's oil-o-mometers are mostly marketing. A memory of overall driving conditions + miles is much better, imo. Don't exceed 6 months or 5,000 miles. If you've set your cruise control for 95 mph a couple of times, go sooner based upon your gut. Very scientific... Good luck.
  13. Sounds like transmission... Contact your dealership if it's under warranty. Get that thing in there. Get a diagnosis. Good luck. Peace.
  14. I think the older DJ uconnect systems are no longer being supported by Chrysler through Garmin. It's the most likely explanation, I think. I can't find map updates for my 2011 either. Last update for my RB5 was 2017. Disappointed... my nav doesn't show the new freeway to Vegas. Kinda sux. Peace.
  15. What year? 2011 and later don't have a hard drive, is my understanding. The uconnect system may not support JPEG format files. If that's the case, then there wouldn't be a fix. Don't know for sure. Just curious. Why do you want to load JPEG files? Peace.
