2024 Jeep Wrangler Interior + How to use UConnect 5

[@Dmh06178]

Thanks for jumping on the 2024 and giving us a detailed tour!!! You guys rock

[@DIRTROADCRED]

[@austinspitler32]

I like the new system a lot! From my experience in the 24 Wrangler, it felt quick, responsive and looks super clear and bright. “Aleska, take me to Moab.”

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Right on!

[@primaljackal]

I’ll definitely be curious to see if these can be retrofitted onto previous model years. That wireless feature is huge. Also, I can confirm that recording with UConnect 5 is a thing. I picked up a TRX a few weeks ago, and when I flip the rear view mirror to digital mode, it has the option to record.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

I’m interested too!

[@toolifer]

I love my 2024 Rubicon. The front camera is awesome.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Awesome! Enjoy it

[@brianfank4634]

Your enthusiasm and excitement on the 24 is classic lol like a kid in the candy store 😂 oh yea ,deep dive the Rubicon X , I'm curious to what's all on that trim ??

[@DIRTROADCRED]

We have 11 more videos coming over the next month. Rubicon x overview is one of them!

[@mike7410]

Overall seems like a nice upgrade to a more luxurious vehicle, but still extremely off road capable for those that wheel. The redesigned & hidden hardtop wiring storage is much needed, when we have the soft top on my wife’s ‘21 Willys and it’s folded all the way down it catches on the connector and often pulls it out with its holder.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Definitely a nice upgrade!

[@TheBerkeleyBeauty]

I knew you guys would be the first to give us an in depth look at the new wrangler dash. Thanks guys 👍🏽

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Our pleasure!

[@DUNEATV]

3:20 LOL

[@lowcountryrob170]

My dealer got a Sahara in and my salesman let me play with it and test drive it. We have played with the Alpine system in it too. I’m pretty sure I sold a Jeep that day, to my salesman. Great video as you showed more stuff than I played with. I’ll be happy when mine gets here.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Thanks for the comment!

[@LivingTheDreamUSA]

I like the larger stereo 😊

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Yes!

[@KarenGraves-sg6oy]

I hadnt thought about the Roll Cage grab bars with the new airbags... hrmm. They work great on my JK, so hopefully an 'airbag friendly' version comes out soon cause I'll miss those quite a lot.

[@karenkroppa3499]

Thanks for the info! My jeep arrives next week ❤

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Awesome! Enjoy it

[@TealOxAdv]

Awesome video. Looking forward to getting some hands-on soon. Definitely like the responsiveness of the system. The interior changes are nice to see as well.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Right on!

[@AStanton1966]

We had a 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Limited with the new Uconnect5. We couldn't take it; it was glitchy as a mofork. So we traded it back in after only 6 months. Pull up some videos of the guy with a new Wagoneer and his problems with Uconnect5.

[@robsolf]

The wide screen isn't as huge a positive as it probably to others, but it is better. I love the customization options, though. Bugs me that on my '22 I can't prioritize the icons I use most(other than the bottom; that's nice) on the first page. Thanks for the vid! Good luck with the partner deal! PS: I prefer "diminning". :)

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Fair enough!

[@sartajbhullar3782]

for some reason I like the old style, the square one with circular vents. And no fabric on the dash.

[@coltonellison5355]

Screen is cool, but personally I prefer the previous dash and air vents. Cool to see everything in a video though. My 24 grill should be here this week so we’ll see how I like that

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Awesome!

[@luv5929]

Hi. can you tell where did you get the new grill? I got 23 jeep, i need to get 24 grill

[@coltonellison5355]

[@diguezinc.6871]

The big question ! Can we put this screen on our JL,s 18-23 ?

[@marcusvasquez3363]

Same question

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Might be tricky!

[@not2sneaky]

Just picked up our new 392 last week and still trying to figure out UC 5, we have UC4 in our 22 but 5 seems alot better

[@MaverickSJR94]

Why did they have this infotainment system from the start? This looks so much cleaner.

[@clifblake]

Great video! Was that a sport? I ask because my Jeep Sport, seems to not have the option to turn on the lines on the back up camera.

[@nansa87]

2:35 there is X button on the right top corner, but unfortunately that light hid that button. There should be on in the white corner. I believe you already have figured that out,.

[@alanturton3394]

Given this refresh being so late in the model year life of the JL, how many years do you think are left before the JL is replaced with an entirely new model?

[@DIRTROADCRED]

I expect a brand new redesign in 5 years

[@alanturton3394]

@@DIRTROADCRED thanks! I guess I am safe to order a 2024 JL then! 👍🏻

[@nathalie_desrosiers]

Is there's a way to "lock" our favorite music stations so we don't have twice the same station when we hit a bump?

[@KubanKevin]

Personally I prefer Wired CarPlay for the charging especially when using the gps.

[@cameronsharon9617]

It’s sad wireless CarPlay is just becoming mainstream when I’ve had it on my 2013 wrangler for 2 years by installing an aftermarket unit.

Lol I know!

Two inch high screen must be amazing for Navigation.

[@kevinjohnston6605]

Are the fuel and temperature gauge analog on 2024? Or is it part of the center information center digital display?

[@SR-sg7qk]

Lol. If it wasn't for you and your side kicks info. My hubby wouldn't be thinking of just buying a new jeep to adding mods. So in 6 months or so. I may have a new 2024 jeep willys. 🎉 I will share pics after I add all my mods to it.

Great video, again. Thanks for posting. 👍

Thanks for watching!

[@jlautomotive6349]

Soooo, no more aftermarket grab handles??…. Not sure if I like the center speaker design, will have to see in person? OlllllllO Knocked this out of the park!👍

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Definitely difficult with the new air bags

[@Jermy337]

2024 Sport Does it have limited slip rear diff. ? It's not in the build options..

[@DIRTROADCRED]

I’ll have to dig into it!

[@smhershey11]

Any idea how to setup to launch Off Road Pages using the Off Road Plus button? We tried it while putting the car in 4Hi but no luck?

Screen ProTech needs to get that screen designed asap

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Yes they do

[@ramehkhazen2223]

Unconnect 5 is still problematic. Owner of a 70k custom ordered Jeep High Altitude. Issues- wireless car play disconnects and you have to delete and reinstall the bt connection. Sometimes I can’t control the volume on anything, phone, manual control. Better than the last jeep I had with the blue screen of death when backing up and the audio that skips.

[@davidl929]

I wonder if there will be widescreen cameras available from the aftermarket. That 12.3" screen turns into around a 6" screen. That would have looked incredible if the cameras put out the widescreen format.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Maybe!

[@koryandsarah6568]

I love my 4xe sure would like front camera!

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Awesome!

[@johnsilver7150]

I hope Jeep redesigned the sunvisors, I have replaced 3 in 2 1/2 years. and they are currently on National backorder. I also would have prefered less tech and had lockers on all trim models.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Maybe in the 2025!

[@97XOVRLND]

Why is the stitching mixed? Red stitching on the steering wheel and seats, but different stitching on the grab handle and the top dash trim? - I've been holding out for a 24 392, but the more reviews I see on the interior, I'm getting a bit more skeptical. Other reviews are showing quality issues on the interior.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Great question, not sure. My only guess is they wanted the front dash panels to be the only red like the previous red dash

[@kristimisty27]

Looking forward to the rubicon and rubicon x model video. I have been chatting with Lindsay from Dan Cummins. Reached out through the affiliate program. Waiting to see if any new color drops!

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Awesome! We chose our color..

[@tarenblue4234]

Hi! Thank you for your time/effort on these videos. Do you know if the Uconnect 5 can be upgraded to the Uconnect 5 Nav after purchase? Or are they two different hardware systems? Can you add aftermarket cameras that can be connected to the Uconnect system? To have it show up on the screen?

[@DIRTROADCRED]

I think it needs the antenna too

[@rambokd]

Welcome to the party Jeep…finally wireless CarPlay..seems like just yesterday they added CarPlay. Not a fan of the new vents but maybe over time.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Lol right!

[@sleepnclass]

I like the functionality but still not sold on the look of it. Looks too slapped or bolted on idk. It's like the design doesn't work with the rest of the dash.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

We will say it looks better in person

[@JoeSmith-nu8oo]

I went to the DC website and they had several 23 392's available, I checked the other day and nothing now😲 I guess people decided they would rather have a 23 over a 24 after all.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

They’re selling a bunch of everything

[@Lando452]

I wanna see the Willys deep dive

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Wish we could’ve done that. We haven’t seen a Willy’s yet.

[@gabrieldalcomune3044]

On some screens I love the extra real estate, but then others it looks like it's too densely packed with information on the screen. It doesn't seem as easy to use as the uconnect4 in my 8.4 is way easier to use. And the dash seems chunky compared to how the current dash looks, so I'm not too jazzed about the refresh. That grill though I kind of want on my JL.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Do it!

[@alfa8822]

Do you know if it has the tire fill alert? I previously owned a JK and I heard that the JLs have that. Don’t know if that’s true but wondering if the 2024 has it

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Yes I believe so

[@alfa8822]

Thanks

[@avnmech]

I like the gauges, looks like my Stinger only with a 2 inch larger screen.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Clean look for sure

[@AStanton1966]

The Stinger was so good, Kia no longer makes it.

[@SublimeScat269]

Love this video! I still have concerns with Uconnect 5 though. It definitely still has its issues but I’m curious to see if being integrated into the dash would help with the cold weather issues it has like on the compass and other models. Those usually have the back half of the radio exposed and when cold UC 5 has issues with it

[@DIRTROADCRED]

It will be interesting to see how it does over time!

[@DuyenNguyen-ui6mo]

I like the changes they done on the new Wrangler.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Us too!

[@321jono]

Y'all talked about all sorts of stuff we're wondering. Great job. I just had a scary thought though: Jeep states that all vehicles will be electrified by 2025. I hope that means every model will have a electric OPTION. But does that mean the naturally asperated V6 will be gone? I plan to order a stick V6 late next year, so it might be a 2025 by the time it comes out! Oh no! I don't want electric motors! Just a good 'ol Pentastar V6. 😅 I guess we'll see .. hopefully they don't force electric on folks. They'd have to get rid of the 392 since there probably ain't room for all that extra.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

11 more videos coming!

[@DelanoJ]

See they asking $59k for Rubicon in this vid. The new grille in black looks great with that High Velocity

[@DIRTROADCRED]

😎😎😎

[@djuell01]

I think phone mounts with that new screen are going to be a pain. Also there is no wireless charging anywhere correct?

[@DIRTROADCRED]

There are some mounting location on the dash still

[@eddieespx]

I feel like they just slapped the Cherokees center dash in there, like if there was extra parts floating around. It needs the circular ac vents just doesn’t look right

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Definitely took some designing

[@wippdriver1]

The screen is nice but I don't like the horizontal air vent

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Not for everyone! We like them

[@Chungles_]

Can I swap that into a 2021?

[@mattskillman]

I like the newer style dash panels for the Rubicon, and Uconnect5 is long overdue in a Wrangler. I still don't care for the screen, looks forced and clunky. Next model Wrangler will have to redesign the HVAC system to incorporate the screen better. A pillar redesign is for the new side curtain air bags.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Definitely a different look

[@ala8649]

Cool video matt thanks for showcasing the new 2024. My question to you is… is it worth to get the new 392 2024 insted of the previous model ? Since the 2021 and 2022 is going to run for less money. Is the new screen and sound deading worth it ?

[@ala8649]

Aka the acoustic package.

[@DIRTROADCRED]

Good question. We have some 2024 392 content coming.
