I don’t think Dodge has released a list of affected cars yet, but does anyone know if the gen Vs will be impacted when all the 3G networks get shutdown this year?

Should be anything uconnect before 2018 when they started 4g radios.

I have a 16 charger that will be hit by it. Couldn’t care less.

You can get an adapter if you want. Link also has a list of compatible vehicles (which I assume would be the same as a list of affected).

I’m not concerned about having uconnect service, but does losing 3G affect the Performance pages? I only use the cars gauges portion to monitor temps and iats..

Anyone got this working? I lost Performance Pages and the T-Mobile 4G dongle lights up but my Uconnect can't connect to anything. I can connect to the dongle wifi and use data, but the car can't seem to use it.

I connect used sprint for its 3g network. Shouldn’t have anything to do with the performance pages. Mainly it will effect over the air downloads and apps through uconnect (like Pandora which needs a connection).

the 3G Sprint network is supposed to be decommissioned. That's what the new T-Mobile 4G dongle is for. I'm surprised 3G is still working for you.

How do you get the dongle? The link thru the uconnect page just takes me to their main site. With no info on the dongle.

when you call them to signup they will talk to you about the dongle. or you can mention it. it should be free with subscription.

Sprint doesn't exist. So I'd try Uconnect.
