It is the current deal - Limited for the price of a Laredo, 5 year warranty, Fixed Price servicing, Lifetime Roadside Assistance as long as you get it serviced by Jeep.

According to Northern Motors it was the last one with Off Road II, so it is silver in colour. As far as I know it is MY15 with 2017 Compliance.

My 2013 cooked the motor.....

So we start again:
Which snorkel?
Auxiliary Tank
What front end protection? Bull Bar? Pre-runner? Nudge Bar?

Cheers

You cooked the motor? How much did that cost to fix, or was it just a case of refilling with coolant and restarting.
Also how did it happen? blown hose, radiator problem? Forgive all the questions, it just scares me to think about it, I guess it's morbid fascination.

Split hose, under the turbo, out of sight. The repair cost was more than the car is worth... Hence, new car.

On the 2013's with the mechanical temperature gauge, by the time the needle moves, it is all over. They refilled the coolant after replacing the hose, but there was exhaust gas in the coolant.

I have been asking for 2 years. How hard is it? I think it is a good GPS, but the old maps need updating fast! Such poor customer service. A $90,000 vehicle should be better supported.

Sorry to dig up an old thread, can anyone confirm what the actual status of Uconnect and map updates are for MY14 Limiteds? (I suspect my car is actuall MY14 not 15 based on the early '14 build date)

According to radio information I have Software Version 14.25.5 and Map Database: CMCN4VP4ROW;NQNA2012Q2;20121211. 2012 seems pretty damn old! I can't do the voice commands for 'Navigate To' because it's apparently not supported in my country and "hey Siri" doesn't seem to work either.

Are there actually Uconnect software and map updates available? Seems like different information across different threads. Has anyone actually had any success doing getting an updated map on MY14 or 15's even if it's a paid update?

It's getting beyond a JOKE with FCA & this map debacle.

THINK IT'S ABOUT TIME WE STARTED A CLASS ACTION AGAINST FCA OVER THE LACK OF SUPPORT FOR MAPPING & ASSOCIATED PROBLEMS WITH THE UCONNECT SYSTEM HERE IN AUSTRALIA.

So that being said... who is in? ______________________Members who opted out
