REPAIR SUMMARY

This bulletin provides information regarding the latest Firmware Over The Air (FOTA) update and provides the service technician an overview of the steps a customer will need to take to complete the update. The radio software will be updated from IR22.64 and IR22.65 to IR22.66. The national launch for the FOTA is expected to begin on January 09, 2023.

DISCUSSION

Vehicles can now receive software updates "over-the-air". Updates to software will occur in a phased roll-out.

The software is updated through the built-in cellular modem in the radio. Customers will see a notification on their radio screen when new software is available for their radio (Fig. 1) . The customer will have the option to update the radio or schedule the update for later. There is not an option to decline the update indefinitely, the update must be performed.

NOTE: This is an "Information Only" Technical Service Bulletin to inform the dealer how the FOTA update is performed and any symptom/condition that this enhancement corrects. This document does not contain a LOP for reimbursement.

NOTE: If selecting "Schedule Update" the screen below will be displayed. The customer can select the exact time they want the update to begin (Fig. 2).

The vehicle needs to be in the park position, or have the vehicle in neutral with parking brake engaged if equipped with a manual transmission. The ignition needs to be off.
Whether the customer selects "Update Now" or "Schedule Update" and sets a time, they can shut off the vehicle and leave. The update will be completed automatically (Fig. 3).
NOTE: This phase may take several minutes to complete.
Upon completion of update, the radio will display a confirmation message (Fig. 4).
