I had a message asking to update Uconnect this morning. It said to place vehicle in park and turn off engine. Does FCA do over the air updates?

Update:
Went back out to the Jeep and yes I guess they do.

my wife's Grand Cherokee did this a while back. same process, we shut it off for a couple minutes and it was done. The dealer did the update on my gladiator while it was in shop a little while ago. apparently they're trying to fix the screen flashing / flickering problem.

Off the wall question, will the auto updates work if the vehicle is in a garage?

They've been doing it since at least 2017. I found this youtube video of them explaining the system and yes your vehicle has to be outside.

This is only if you have the 8.4ā€ radio though, right?

I have the 8.4ā€ screen so Iā€™m not sure if that matters or not, but I got the message today. It did the update today while I was out running errand and I turned my Jeep on and off during the process.

Mine forced the update on me yesterday afternoon while at a friendā€™s house. Soon as I shut off the truck, it started the update. Had I known it was going to take a f***ing hour, I would have waited till I got home.

Anyway, after the update, everything seems to be working fine, just like it was before.

You should have gotten the option to schedule the update on the initial screen that indicated the update would take "about 40 minutes." I got the notice this afternoon when I shut off the Jeep while in town. It gave me the option of scheduling so I told it to update 5 hours later at 6 p.m. when I knew I would be home. I just went out and checked and the update was successful and everything works perfectly.

my update seemed to work alright but now my iPod nano says the device is not recognized when I plug it in to the usb. Bluetooth works no problem though. Not sure what happened.

We recommend moving your vehicle outside to best allow for the update to be successful.

Mine finally popped up the update notice last Friday afternoon when I pulled into the driveway. I checked it a couple hours later and it said it completed successfully and the recall was done. I drove it today and everything seems to be just fine. Backup camera worked with no issues.
