Hello, Fellow Renegades,
I have a 2017 DH that sat on the lot for 160 days before I bought it. Love the vehicle. The radio locked on me a few times where I had to restart the vehicle to get it back. Not a big deal since the radio is a computer everyone knows how often those need to be rebooted. For giggles I informed the dealer while I was in for an oil change and they ended up ordering a new head unit. I originally requested a software update as I'm sure that there was one out there and most likely would have fixed it. However, I am not going to complain about free parts.
When I got back into the vehicle first thing I noticed was that bass was about 2X better than before (9 speaker Beats). I know there was a TSB around for the stereo, but with a build date of 12/16 I figured I already had the update. Guess there is some secret sauce in the new software. I didn't notice anything visually different with the new software, in-case you were going to ask.
Moral of the story: If you're under warranty say the radio locks up occasionally and you'll get a new unit with better software and most llikely newer maps... For free...

Also want to request people post with their current software versions so others can keep track of what the most recent version is floating around out there. Make sure to post where you live too as I'm sure it is different per region/country. Also when/if you had your software updated any time via dealer or OTA.
Good luck everyone!
