Reboot the head unit, easy to do. I experience this randomly, and brought it up with the dealer, they have nothing to offer. The weird thing is that it may do it over and over again after rebooting, but I can shut the truck off and then restart everything and drive on, and it works perfectly for 200 miles.

Wireless connection is garbage on our vehicles. New phone or old, iPhone or Android; it doesn't matter. Just plug it in and make sure your phone settings are set to favor a wired connection. Or, continue to deal with nonsense like this. Even using a wired connection, I get weird glitches that require me to reset the APIM to get things to work right.

Running the latest Sync and using Galaxy S24 Ultra on latest software. Wireless phone connectivity has been an issue with Sync 4 no matter what version of Sync or what phone I've tried to use wirelessly.
I would agree except I see the same issues on other vehicle forums. Android Auto is the issue - especially the half baked versions they continue to push put to newer phones. Unfortunately it is not just the wireless connection. I've had the same failure modes with a wired connection.

Oh, I have issues too using a wired connection, but it is infinitely better overall when you just plug it in. Much less glitches to deal with.

Drove the truck on an hour an 45 minute drive Sunday. The radio went blank and reset 4 times in that drive. Never has it done that before. After the last OTA update it has started doing this. very frustrating! The 2025 Ramcharger is looking better everyday.
