I just bought a used 2011 sport and it comes with the touchscreen. I have the "Nav" button on my screen and when I press it it shows my location, but when I press the back button, and then address, it says "no map data available". It won't recognize poi or anything. So I'm not sure what all this means.
When I bought the truck, they said it didn't have Nav. So if it doesn't, that's ok, but if it does, that's an added bonus.
Also, I got my build sheet from Chrysler and this was on it:
RHB Uconnect 430N CD/DVD/MP3/HDD/NAV
Well, I feel I do do to. But when I go type something in it says no data or whatever. And I I hit find gas station or police.....nothing. I was thinking that maybe the system was wiped or something and I need to download or install a disc. I don't know. I've never had navigation. It's all new to me.
The truck didn't come with an owners manual either.
No, the navigation i believe has expired when owners were changed
i believe that you need to call
RAMTRUCKS contactshttp://www.ramtrucks.com/webselfservice/ramtrucks/index.jsp

they always ask for it
ask for a BUILD SHEET
ask for an owners manual

OP, since you have an '11 you might want to look into a nav update that is available. It costs about $130 from Chrysler/Garmin. If you live in an area where new roads and/or housing developments are popping up regularly, then it is worth updating to the latest maps. This is true where I live and even the latest '12 maps are missing info from near me.
I just called costomer service and they weren't much help. He said it sounds like I need to go to a Chrysler dealer and get an update. He didn't know why it was saying no map data.
So I'm thinking I'll have to pay for some service. Got any idea what an "update" costs at the dealership?
It's not an update you need. An update implies that you have a working navigation and you're wanting an update to your current [out-of-date] map's capabilities.
You need the ENTIRE navigation software installed [or re-installed].
Yes, I think a call/visit to a Chrysler dealership is the correct step.
Yeah, I don't think it's an update needed, I need the whole software in my opinion as well.
I feel like I bought a truck with navigation and it should be working so hopefully they will just reinstall it, but I'm afraid I'm gonna have to fight off an attempt to charge me.
I thought that I had already typed that I took your advice. My bad, yo. I got my build sheet already. I called with VIN and mileage at the ready. He informed me that I would have to purchase an owners manual, not be given one. We then tried to figure out what was up with my Nav, and just like dummy #2 At the dealership, he too was perplexed. I didn't bother asking for the Bahamas at that point. It was early in the morning, and I'd had enough. I just figured I'd try again with a different approach.
Turns out they had deselected the map pack. I was just playing around with it and figured it out.
Here's how I got there for those interested:
Go to settings, select Map, and right next to the "restore" button there's an "info" button, select "info". The box next to "OEM Navi...." was empty, so I pressed it and BAM! I'm a straight up navigatin' pimp!
I don't know how I didn't come across that earlier, but if you want to know what I was experiencing, uncheck that.
