Hello Everyone! Apparently, this does affect 2017 FCA models as well. Also, in the two years since this video was posted, many viewers have posted helpful comments about additional features that do not work with the adapter, as well as the fact that it will not work at all in some FCA models - like the Jeep Cherokee. It was impossible for me to test every available UConnect feature at the time this video was posted because 3g service was still active in my area and most of these features only stopped working once 3g was shut down. I'd strongly suggest that you read through all the comments to find out if a feature important to you is supported before purchasing the adapter. If you decide to get the OBD cable splitter, make sure you get the kind with the rounded cable, NOT the flat ribbon cable. The flat cables don't work with many devices, including the 4g adapter and the Tazer. Here's a link to the one you SHOULD get.

Great video my friend👌🏾, Thanks for sharing💯. We all need a theft upgrade these time and days. See you in the next video👍🏾

I’m glad you mentioned the splitter cable. I currently have AutoStop Eliminator plugged in

Great info, glad to see this explained. I have a 2016 Hellcat and the only thing I have used the data service for is the Travel Link. I've used it maybe 3-4x the whole time I've owned the car so losing that isn't going to be a big deal. I don't think I'll bother with the 4G dongle in this case!

Thanks for this. A lot of my questions answered for my 2015 Challenger.

I was wondering how they were going to do this and ODB2 makes sense. Glad you touched on the splitter as well. Cheers!

Thanks for the video! Great info! I called Uconnect Access to get the adapter for our 2015 Cherokee. They don't offer the adapter for 2014-2018 Cherokee. Ugh.

Ugh thank you so much sir I got this email and had no idea what they was talking about 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Everyone check and make sure your devices are plugged in after vehicle service. I had a windshield replace last week. Never even occurred to look afterwards. But part of the replacement process is camera calibration. My AutoStop Eliminator stopped working. I found the device laying on the rubber mat back by the seat floor mount. They had pulled it out to connect their test equipment, then never plugged it back in.

Thank you! I got the email about mine but was confused about the T-Mobile plan whether I had to pay extra for it or not with the Hot Spot. You cleared all that up. And I like the 1-3 adapter! Cuz I was like what if I want to plug in my Tazer, I would have to unplug the 4G. Thanks bro!

Great video I just ordered mine for a Ram 1500 but now ill order the OBD split cable as well. Hopefully it's not in the way as with the charger but I like the cable just to hide the adapter out of site out of mind in case its stolen.

Well done vid and thanks for the information.

Thanks for the link. I have the dongle in my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The problem is, when it's plugged in you can't see the lights because they face backwards. Getting the splitter extension so I can finally see the status

I think the most frustrating thing about this issue is that unless your car get scrapped or traded, this will happen again in about 5 years when the 4g spectra gets reallocated (just like the 3g is today

Great video. However, I have a 2018 jeep cherokee. I'm told by uconnect that there are 3 vehicles that DO NOT work with this 4g updated adapter. They said that there is no plan to fix this.... have you heard of this? Or a fix?

Thanks for the video and thanks about the splitter

Hey CTHellcat, would I be able to swap my 2017 head unit for a 2021 unit to get the 4g U-Connect in my 2017 Jeep SRT?

Thanks for this great video. At this time it's the only source for info out there I could find. I have a 2013 RAM and activated the UConnect to remote start for the Minnesota winters. I did the activation online and a couple days later I have one of these devices in the mail with zero explanation as to why they sent it to me. I did follow the instructions to install, but even after driving for 20 minutes the connection light stays blue. It never turns green. It says it should turn green when activated. Is yours green? Or won't it turn green until January 1? Also, do you know if this will give us more detailed information? TMobile's SyncUp gives you things like battery, gas level, etc. I have to imagine its essentially the same device so it would be nice to have those additional details. Thanks again for the video and any further info you can provide!

Good video you should make a second video about how we are getting tricked into buying wifi for your vehicle forget uconnect cause when you turn off the vehicle that thing turn off also how you going to lock unlock or remote start lol or tracking the vehicle if get stolen

Did you have to download software onto a thumbdrive and install the thumbdrive into your aux port and upload software? I cannot get software to load. I think it might be a problem with my aux port. Did you need to do this??

I have a 2016 RAM 3500 with the T-Mobile adapter plugged in. The UConnect app functions appear to only work when I can get the 3G icon to turn blue with signal bars on the UConnect screen. I have to keep press/hold the power and tune buttons to restart the radio, normally twice, and can get 3G icon on the UConnect screen to turn blue and signal bars to show up. Is there something that has to be updated/selected/flipped for the system to use the T-Mobile 4G LTE adapter?

Thanks for the video. Unfortunately uconnect told me the 4g adapter doesn't work with 2016 jeep Cherokee's.

I was not notified about the 4G adapter until I called UConnect to reactivate so I could once again make use of the hands-free messaging capabilities. Lo and behold I find out the they have discontinued the hands-free messaging and the Send 'n' Go functions! The rep I spoke with explained that I would have to use my Google Assistant to send or respond to texts while driving. Hmmm. I went ahead and had them send me the 4G adapter but between finding out that when plugged into my 2013 Ram's OBD-II port the adapter hits my left leg when entering/exiting my truck, and the buggy initializing and connectivity, I'm axing the adapter. Can anyone tell me what aftermarket infotainment system(s) out there will restore the hands-free capabilities? Thanks!

Affects my 2017 Chrysler 200 but wiring is not compatible and so not available, per uConnect.

After you plug in the 4g adapter how do you connect it to Uconnect??

I just got this device for my truck and on the uconnect app it say’s I don’t have any active subscriptions, does yours say that or does your app work?

Would this work on a 2016 ACURA MDX ,Verizon phone network?

How do I disable the 4G cellular service from the charging radio how do I remove the antenna for the 4g

I own a 2016 Durgano. I have had the 4G adaptor for WiFi prior to learning anything about the 3G going away in m y car. Everything seems to work in my vehicle with the exception of YELP and sending out text messages. When learning this feature did not work, I immediately called Uconnect who told me contact my cell carrier (AT&T) and they should be able to help me. Alas, I went yesterday and visited the AT&T store, and they could not help me. I feel that sending out text messages is driver safety feature that I used frequently. There are no T-Mobile stores in my area. Any advice? Anyone else having these issues?

I bought a splitter for my odb port so that i still had an accesible port

Great video but still very disappointed in the solution from the manufacturer. As you touched on, the OBD placement isn’t conducive to the module without a splitter, mine broke in the first week and I removed it in fear of damaging the the actual OBD port. Secondly, some of the features still don’t work such as send and go and the App Store due to the fact that the vehicle HMI(touch screen) are hardwired into the 3G system

Will this work on my 2013 chevy Tahoe

What about 2008 Silverado I want everything to work I'm very picky about my truck

Once 3G shuts down. Will the i3 still work with MyBMW App? esp to alert me when the car is fully charged, and checking status. and car location. These are the few functions I use the most.

How do you hook it to the uconnect and radio?

I have a 2005 Chrysler 300 Touring with 63,000 miles on it. I was wondering if this device would work on it??

where you get this device i have a 2014 jeep cherokee can you share the link

I just called to inquire about all of this as I have a 2016 HC and the only thing Uconnect is now is just safety features. They said they no longer have the diagnostic features. That’s the reason I wanted it. Does anybody know if our GPS will continue to work with the 3g?

Added the adapter and my 3G services like voice text stopped working anyway.

I have a 2015 Jeep Cherokee but was told it wasn't on the list to use the T-Mobile dongle I hope it will eventually

I have a 2017 Ram with the 8.4 3G radio and I recently installed the 4g adapter. I was on today with Uconnect customer service and they too were going over the changes when the 3g systems is shutdown. She told me that most of the features will continue to function with the 4g adapter, but because the radio is 3g some of the radio functions will no longer work. One of them is the voice to text feature, which is what I use a lot. Very disappointed. Do you know of a work around for voice to text?

Will this fix my GPS… that and the radio sync are the only thing not working…… thanks..

I just bought the 2016 Durango and didn't know this. Uconnect told me there is no way to upgrade and they're sending me the 3g adapter. Can I still request the 4g adapter or no?

I have a Ford fusion energy 2017 plug-in vehicle the 3G it does not work anymore and it’s so I called the dealer they said $318 for the modem and about $300 to install it what do you think that guys?

I have a 2014 JEEP SRT and UConnect Charged me $299 for the 4G adapter? What did I do wrong? I have been a U Connect Subscriber since 2014?

Would this work on my 2017 lincoln continental

will this work with a 2017 model? my aunt is going through this with her 200

Will the Uconnect apps work with the 4g?

will this work for my 2014 bmw i3 ?

What car brands supported?

when I called them they said there is nothing they can do for my 2018 jeep. I'm going to call uconnect back and see if they offer this for jeep

Does this in any way affect cell phone connectivity to the vehicle?

Sadly this doesn't solve my problem. ( disabling the built-in 3-g radio) I was hoping this upgrade will swap out the 3g radio for 4g

2017 too

When my Ucconect quit working I called Ucconect. When I asked if there was an upgrade ir adapter they told me no. I will be calling them back.

this solution does not work for the regular jeep Cherokee.

Also, the "Performance Pages", "911" and "info" buttons, "Send n Go", "Pandora" and several other things will never work again - no matter what. Really annoyed to find this out - since I paid extra for all of these things.

It still doesn't allow you to text via voice command. So discouraged 😞

Where do you get it from

Has anyone had their engine light go on after plugging this into your port?

Some Vehicles (up & including 2021) have this problem! Lexus/Toyota have NO plan to update their vehicles! Google your car to see if it is on the list. 😤

4g adapter doesn't work. Had it for a year and it never has service.

Mine still doesn’t work I am hoping end of March it switches.

I called Uconnect and they told me that the 4G service doesn't work with my vehicle. I'm so upset. 😫

Disappointing manufactures sold this peace of mind knowing the warranty would last longer than the peace of mind. All too common. However as far as Audi community, the class actions can be endless but ultimately fixes the weirdest things.

Crappy option. Buy and 2018 radio and USB replacement. Harder for criminals to remove those right away. But, lets face it, if your car is stolen, your likely never going to see it again. NICE cars by the way….❤

Yeah... except for the Cherokee ... Total BS. Should be a class action suit...

Mine still shows 3G on the screen.

I’m in a Volkswagen and we are sol.

This adapter is useless. It does nothing to make the apps work on the radio. Sometimes this adapter doesn’t work at all.

DOES NOT WORK FOR RENEGADE!!!!!

Don’t buy this if you have a 2017 Jeep Cherokee. It will not work.

Most of his “info” is not true/false, I got the adapter. 2 actually and neither did what he described. Useless video
