Earlier today I was on a Bluetooth call and suddenly couldn't hear the other person. Called back a few times and we just couldn't hear eachother.

Ended up disconnecting from the JT and all was fine. After the call I turned on the radio and realized the driver side front speaker is no longer working. Hoping to get into the dealership shortly but wanted to know if anyone has heard of this in JL's (been looking but haven't found anything).

I have the Alpine upgrade. All other speakers work fine double checked with the equalizer and front driver is the only one out, with no sound coming from it.

There was no pop, there's no static. Nothing to tell me anything other than possibly a bad wire somewhere but I'm terrible at electronics.

Thanks all!

Interested in this as well. I had my iPhone plugged in using Car Play and got some horrible distorted ring tone out of that left front speaker. I disconnected the USB and the Bluetooth also had the rattling distortion. I havenā€™t noticed it during drives since. Music sounds ok so I donā€™t think it was damaged. Not sure what happened but FCA May need to do a bit of research on the usb, Bluetooth phone audio.

I connect my phone to the USB port in the center console box. Android Auto loads up whenever it's plugged in. The left front speaker cuts out anytime there is an alert from the phone. I think it's playing the alert tone, but I also hear it from the phone so it's hard to tell. Calls are clear with no sound issues.
