Ok, not trying to get too controversial (not saying I want the service for free, but maybe discounted... or free) but I am contemplating adding the NAV to my 8.4 uconnect in my 2017 bighorn eco. I was watching a YouTube video and a dude said that he had his done online with a radio repair shop...

Yeah, I had watched this video a few weeks ago. I was thinking about trying that, but theyve already looked at it and called it bad and the warranty is gonna cover it. If I cant get it changed before my trip, I will give it a go. Just gotta find a cheap steam gun and a way to power it up cause...

I will hot gas and press if that will save me from getting stuck in the desert! Appreciate the info

Well, Its definitely appreciated. Between dealing with the dealership, FCA, and packing my trailer in 100+ degree heat and then thinking about where I could be stranded, I am exhausted! Hell, I was so emotionally stressed I was seriously contemplating a trip to the Chevy dealership to trade this...

Awesome, my forum skills suck I think. Sorry about that. And I appreciate all the info from all of you on here!

I had posted that before I had even read the new one where you set me straight. Sorry, Im a slow reader and an even slower typer on this phone.

Yes, I read that, then thanked you for correcting the bad info I had gotten from elsewhere. Then I said someone else had posted the start bypass.

Awesome, I was looking at some bad info I think. Someone already posted the start bypass on this thread, so I have that. Thank you for clearing that up for me.

Theres fluid in the tank, but the pump isnt spraying, Im really concerned about frying the exhaust and DPF, or getting it clogged completely. Is there a way for the dealership to manually clean the DPF before I head out? I chatted to a lady with FCA and asked them if they would send a tow...

Been thinking about it, but thats a long ass warranty to throw away

Lengthy post, sorry. So, I have owned my 2017 Bighorn Eco for just over a year now. Never had a single problem until 11 July when my CEL illuminated and a message accompanied it saying there was a DEF fault. Brought it into the dealership and they stated there were no codes, although I scanned...

Damn... my tank/pump was supposed to be in this morning so I dropped the truck off at the service department and left. Found out at 430 this evening that the part never showed. Now its reordered and I am told it will take 5-7 days to show up. My problem is that I am moving in like 7 days...

I realize that its not ideal, but what if you had to drive your trucks with no DEF pump for say 900 miles? How would that affect MPG and power?

Just found out an hour ago that my DEF pump is shot at 14,300 on the odometer! Luckily, they will have my replacement tank/pump unit first thing in the morning. Had it in last Thursday but their code scanner couldn't find the permanent code at that time!

Thats cool, I still saw an improvement. Not sure where to go from here... I am an honest dude with no reason to lie.
