Has anyone signed up for and used this yet? I just got the email.

I did, when it works, it’s great for the shell app. My issue is that it has worked maybe 50% of the time. It’s really buggy and crashes a lot.

Disinclined to load a credit card number in there without more info on digisec

I have watched a few "demo" videos of this. Seems really gimmicky and limited. Only thing I could see myself ever using is paying for Fuel...but I can't recall the last time I used Shell. I have better taste in food than eating Dominos =P

Also, the amount of steps to use the Shell app makes it not very convenient...quicker to swipe a card at the pump.

And considering vehicles often spend time at dealers, tire shops, valet parking, etc...don't like the idea of CC info being stored in it.

So ideally, if it worked, the app would be as good as, no need to take a card out and risk a skimmer or something. But the app is super bug riddled and crashes, making it largely useless. When it works, it’s nice.

I keep getting "Fatal Error" every time I try to open the app even though I have signed up Uconnect Market.

Never have been able to get it to even load to the point of signing up. Seems more like bloat ware for a sales pitch line than anything useful.

Basically like buying a new computer and getting AOL pre installed.

Yeah I had to sign up on their website, but I can never get past "Fatal Error" when I try to open the app in the Jeep.

 

[rafaelsmith]

Yeah...tried setting it up and nothing but errors. Pure garbage. Glad it did not really look like anything I would want.

@JeepCares do you have any information on why some of us cannot access the Uconnect Market?

This is the error I get every time I try to access it. Sorry for the picture being a little blurry

No kidding - I avoid anything storing CC info if I can - I at least try to limit it. There also aren't a lot of Shell stations here. That's one problem with Uconnect and the Jeep stuff in general - they seem to use things that are somewhat regional - not found everywhere.
I can't think of a Shell station near me. Casey's - yeah, all over the place!

Hi, I'm sorry to see this is happening. Clearing personal data via Settings may resolve this concern. If not, please feel free to reach out and we can get a case open for you.

Thank you for your reply. So last night on the way home I randomly tried to open Uconnect Market and to my surprise it worked for the first time ever since the app was added months ago. I was able to add my vehicle. This morning I was able to stop and use the Shell app to pay for gas. I dropped the kids off at daycare, and when I tried to go back into the app I noticed that the icon had moved from where it had been for months. Now I am back to getting the "Fatal Error" message again.

I will try clearing the personal data as you suggested. Just really weird that it worked and then it looks like the app reinstalled itself or something like that.

Please keep me updated on whether clearing your data works or not. I would like to relay this information back to my Uconnect specialist. Thank you!
