2021 Ram 2500 4-door

turbocharged 8-cylinder diesel automatic 4WD

1000 mi Radio antenna failed. Radio system needed to be replaced as antenna would not work so lost GPS, data services, etc., and then went back to dealer repeatedly as once it was replaced, I spent dozens of hours trying to get SiriusXM and UConnect/FCA to properly reset my accounts for the new radio ID so all my services would work. Spent the first four months of ownership without a functioning nav system, it was absurd.
