problem

Uconnect media center does not allow hands free operation via bluetooth wireless connections, uconnect media center has been upgraded (firmware) to use only 5g wireless, Jeep Compass only has build in 4g for telematics. To achieve hands free a separate cable needs to be connected to the front usb-c connection so that apple car play is available through the uconnect media center, this was confirmed by the uconnect customer service. The prescence of a physical cable is detrimental to the safety of the operator and passenger because it needs to be in the front of the cabin (not the rear). When the cable is disconnected from the apple iphone the connection of the phone to the media center is severed and if a phone call is received or needs to be made, then operator needs to make or take the call manually.
