NOTE: Some vehicles above may have been identified as not involved in this recall and therefore have been excluded from this recall.

The condition above fails to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 111, “Rear Visibility”.
Repair
The radio software requires an update.
Alternate Transportation
Dealers should attempt to minimize customer inconvenience by placing the owner in a loaner vehicle if inspection determines that a radio software update is required and the vehicle must be held overnight.
Parts Information
No parts are required to perform this service procedure.
Special Tools
The following special tool is required to perform this repair:
| ➢ NPN | 16GB USB Flash Drive |
Service Procedure
- Open the hood. Install a battery charger and verify that the charging rate provides 13.0 to 13.5 volts. Do not allow the charger to time out during the radio update process. Set the battery charger timer (if so equipped) to continuous charge.
NOTE: Use an accurate stand-alone voltmeter. The battery charger volt meter may not be sufficiently accurate. If voltage reading is too high, apply an electrical load by activating the park or headlamps and/or HVAC blower motor to lower the voltage.
- Verify the radio software version. Radio must be in Dealer Mode to verify. To put the radio in Dealer Mode, follow these steps:
- Push and hold the Front Defrost, Driver Temperature Up and Temperature Down buttons simultaneously until the Dealer Mode screen appears (approximately seven seconds). Release buttons.
- Select System Information, then Radio Part Information. The software level will be listed next to Application Version (Figure 1).
- Is the radio software level (Application Version) at or higher than 28.4?
- If YES, the radio software is already up to date. Return the vehicle to the customer.
- If NO, proceed with the Repair Procedure.
- Has a 16GB USB flash drive been created? Ø If YES, proceed to Step 12.
- If NO, proceed to Step 5.
- Go to DealerCONNECT, Service, Uconnect Command Center, Uconnect, More Information, Dealer Software Downloads to download the files.
- If a security message appears “Do you want to view only the web page content that was delivered securely?” (Figure 2), press “No” to continue.
NOTE: If the software cannot be downloaded, make sure you have proper security access. If not, have the Service Manager or Shop Foreman download the software update.
- Use a blank USB flash drive with at least 16GB of space. Follow the on-screen instructions to download the software files.
- Download the software update file to your local PC’s desktop. Make sure to select the “MAC” radio button for all downloads, regardless of the computer being used (Figure 3).
- Be sure to download the file to your designated folder before extracting the zip file to the blank USB flash drive.
NOTE: A blank USB flash drive will be needed for each radio update version; additional updates cannot be on the same USB flash drive. Once created it is recommended to label the USB flash drive with the recall number and proper radio Sales Codes.
- Extract the compressed folder to the desktop. Open the folder and drag and drop the VP4R_Update files to the USB flash drive. The flash drive should look like (Figure 4).
- Once the file is extracted to the USB flash drive, it is recommended to label the USB flash drive with the recall number and proper radio Sales Codes.
- Start the vehicle and insert the correct USB flash drive with new software into the USB port.
CAUTION: Make sure no other device is plugged into any of the USB ports while performing this re-program. If other devices are connected to USB ports during reprogramming, it may cause failure of files to be loaded which may cause the radio to need replacement.
- If the screen in (Figure 5) is displayed, the USB flash drive was not set up correctly. Use a top name brand USB flash drive like Kingston and create a new flash drive and start the update again.
NOTE: This software will update the radio to version 28.4.
- If the radio software is up to date, the screen in Figure 6 will be displayed. Press “OK” and remove the USB flash drive (Figure 6).
NOTE: If the ignition is turned off before the two minute has expired, the software update will be canceled. The ignition does not have to be turned off to perform this updated (Figure 8).
- Once the system has verified there is an available update, press the “Update Now” button. Make sure the vehicle is in park. Do NOT turn off the ignition at this point (Figure 7).
- When the radio starts updating, this screen will be displayed (Figure 8).
- The radio will reboot and the update will begin. The update will take approximately 30 minutes, though the timer on the screen may display the incorrect time remaining.
NOTE: The completion indicator may not reach 100%, even though the software update has been completed. Once the software update has finished, the radio and display screen will turn off (Figure 9).
NOTE: Some display screens will not be displayed, if the ignition is turned off during the update.
- After the update has completed, the radio will shut down. With the USB flash drive still inserted in the USB port, turn the ignition back to the run position. If the radio has been updated correctly, the screen in Figure 10 will be displayed. Press “OK” and remove the USB flash drive (Figure 10).
- Remove the battery charger from the vehicle.
- Close the hood and return the vehicle to the customer.
NOTE: After performing the radio update, the radio display screen may have a ghost image that will not clear, even after turning off the ignition. This ghost image may appear on any radio screens selected. Do not replace the radio for this concern, turn the vehicle off and allow the radio and vehicle to enter a full power down cycle. A full power down cycle may take between 45 to 60 minutes.
NOTE: After performing the radio update, the temperature in the radio may display the wrong temperature. To correct this, go into the radio settings and change the temperature value to the other value. If it is Celsius, change it to Fahrenheit or if it Fahrenheit change it to Celsius. Exit the radio setting menu, then go back into settings and set the temperature value back to the original value.
