Is what I feel like doing. Had the new car one week (touring L) We are fairly tech savvy and the Uconnect with pandora integration was a huge selling point, more so for my husband than I. It took us a few days to get it to work-between mopar website, Google play u connect app, etc. Was working fine the first day. Now, I get different error messages (well the same 3, but different each time). Then maybe 1 out of 4 times it will work properly. I'm always logged into u connect properly so idk what the prob is.

I am beyond frustrated, feel like it is such a waste, and cant help but feel a bit cheated with this system, since obviously we couldn't test it fully before we bought it by hooking everything up to it. I hate having buttons that do nothing on the screen and would just prefer it to work! Any advice?!

Also, car is going in to get Nav installed tomorrow and I am going to talk to them about speakers. It sounds awful in my car -Sirius sounds like it's in a tin can, FM radio is static sounding even with local channels, and having trouble with Google play music/Bluetooth also. I'm coming from a 2011 Dodge grand caravan, so i def expected a better if not at least comparable sounding system. I was sadly wrong

I've included a link to activate your navigation code. If you do it soon there is an ongoing PROMO that takes $100 off the normal $595 charge. The process is easy, and it's the same as what the dealer will do for you at what I'm sure will be an upcharge. Just apply SUMMER100 promo code at check out, and it'll total up $495+tax.

Do we pay $500 for the service?

No BigMamasPaci, there is no charge for the service once you've purchased the activation code. When we got our van back in December, they were running a PROMO then as well. I mentioned this to the salesman, and asked if the dealership would honor the sale and do it for me. They said they would but it would be an additional $85 (labor) to do this (so $580+tax). I passed and when we got back to my son's house he and I did it with no problems, $495+tax. However if you've already negotiated it into your purchase price you're all set.
